Character
in Printing

Printing should convey an cx-
preston Of your confidence in
yourself.
Confidence in ones self is right
ly based upon character that in
spires the confidence Of others.
Character in printing is just
as necessary as character in life.
and is Just as profitable.
What man says and does. the
clothes he wears, and the company
he keeps, are all expressions Of
his character, and the world sizes
him up accordingly.
The thoughts contained in YOUR
printing, the way YOU clothe them
IN type and picture, and the COM
pany they keep in paper and bind
ing, are very certain evidences as
to the character Of your business.

Reading Most Necessary.

One of the brightest essay writer's of
America once put together a number
Of short articles addressed to boys and
girls, intended to advise them in re-
gard to talking, writing and living in
general. says the March st. Nicholas.
We will not mention his name, but
leave You to find it out for yourselves.
In telling what books were most needed
he makes a short list of the indispcn-
sahles. At the head of all he puts the
Bible. which, besides its religious
worth has a claim upon every reader
to enable him to understand all his
history and literature.
In regard to this. the author men
toned quoted an eminent authority on
the subject as saying that the English
language of the last three centuries
has revolved around the English BIZ
bic, as the earth goes round the sun.
The second book, it may surprise you
to know, is good history of Ameri-
ca; next, a good history of England;
fourth comes Shakespeare's plays, and
fifth, an atlas. He calls a library made
up of these five items "a bread-and-
water diet"

Confirmed Proof
Residents Of Augusta Cannot Doubt
What Has Been Twice Proved.

In gratitude for complete relief
from aches and pains of bad backs
from distressing kidney ills-thousands
have publicly recommended Doan's
Kidney Pills. Residents of Augusta,
who so testified years ago, now say
their cures We're permanent. This
testimony doubly proves the worth of
Doan's Kidney Pills to Augusta kidney
sufferers.
Mrs. G. F. Church, of Cushman ST,
Augusta. Me, says: when Doan's
Kidney Pills first came to my atten-
ton Mr.. Church, procured them at
Willis r. Partridge's drug store, and
their use soon bropght me relief from
imperfect action of the kidneys and
severe pains in my back. Two boxes
ended the pains, restored my appetite
and entirely removed the feeling of
unrest and langucr. I have since rec
commended this remedy to many peo-
pie and | know some who have been
greatly benefited by it's use Any one
who gives Doan's Kidney Pills a trial

TRADE OPPORTUNITIES ABROAD
Germany Large Buyer of Cheese
Scientific Handling CT Sugar 3eets.

Washington, y. C., April S.-A re-
vival of Americas export trade in
cheese is agitating the agricultural
leaders of the United States. Consul
General Thackara of Berlin indicates
in letter 10 the Bureau of Manufac-
turcs good opening for American
cheese in Germany. The empire
bought during 1909 mainly from Hol-
land, Switzerland, Denmark and
Canada $6.50000O of cheese at good
prices, which show Il tendency to hard
Ell.
Consul General Thackara supplies a
valuable report on German scientific
methods Of securing the highest unit
value for every part of the sugar beet.
The tops, residue, pulp and even the
mud remaining after washing the
bCctS are all utilized for various pur-
poses. Americans have been equally
successful in the close utilization Of the
cottonsc"d, ana are as fully capable of
developing the fullest economies in
handling the sugar beet. America
now pays to foreign nations over 500
O00,00o annually FOR sugar. which Mr.
Thackara thinks could DC largely
saved by the extension and scientific
handling Of the sugar beet crop, bcne-
fitting also the farmers and their land.
Consul Hurst, writing from Pllu"'.
states that American ovCrShocS are
scaHtily represented there. although
superior to the European makes. The

Minister Beaupre Of Argentine re-
ports that the total value of mer-
chandise imported into that country
for 1903 was $205, ,420, a gain over the
previous year of $17,SiS,451. III railway
equipment and automobiles the gain
was SlO.52973N. Great Britain again
led in sales to Argentina. her total bill
being $6S391, ,000, which was a gain of 81
per cent. over the previous year. Ger

ACOUSTICS PROVE TOO STRONG
Berlin Thcater Closed Because Sound
Waves are Too Penetrating.

Berlin, April S.--A curious case OF
acoustic trouble has arisen at Tho
royal theater. just renovated and rcop-
encd after a long period Of disuse. The
acoustic properties, instead Of being
weak for sound, as expected, proved
ovcrpoWerful. Nothing unusual was
noticed in the theater itself, but in the
street outside and the neighboring
buildings. including a prominent res
taurant and two churches, the rehears-
ais at the theater produced electrifying
ami glostlike effects.

startling and uncanny distinctiveness
