Charles N. Crittenden. the man who

the United States Is an interesting
character. 1T all started through the
death Of nay little girl he says. .sShe
was four years, four months and four
days old. I was then a business man
In New York, but that event brought
me to the Lord
This is the answer he gives to aues-
lions as to how the work was started
There are now 70 such homes in the
United States. Mr.. Crittenden is
wealthy man. The death of his little
daughter prayed upon his mind. It

where can they go?" The matter
weighed upon his mind. Finally he
decided that they must have homes of
their own. The matter took form and
he founded the first Florence Critten-
den Home in New York, on April 10,
1888. The spread of the idea has not
confined itself to the United States
alone. Missions have since been found
ed IN Marseiiles in France, Toxic in
Japan, Shanghai in China and in the
City Of Mexico.

listed. On his tWenty-first birthday his
father started with him on a trip to
see some of the world. They went to
nearby city and had barely reached
the town when a young woman passed
them.
What's that?" asked the young
man of his father, as he pointed at
the woman.
"Oh, that's a goose was the reply.
And the father made the same re-
ply to similar questions from his son
whenever woman was seen. On their
return home few days later the faith
.er told the son that he had now ar
rived at mans estate and he was dis
posed to get for him anything he de-
sired that money or effort could OBJ

son replied:

to say that similarly addressed cards

leave at this time, but no matter now
much work there is on hand TINS par
ticular young woman always was
prompt with an excuse as to why she
should leave at f1ve-thirty Q o'clock
This excuse was generally furnished
by a telephone message from the young

hand on the lever so as not to get

the young lady was leaving and an

now stays without a murmur and

sort of an Arizonian and takes more
interest in the territory than half the
people who live here. En- route to
Phoenix he stopped off for day in
Wilcox and another day in Tucson.
Yesterday he devoted to a visit to the
Tempe Normal and today he will spend
at the Phoenix Indian school. leaving
tonight for home. DR.. Munk is ia

planned months ago and it was eX-
pected it would have been made before

season. The delay was occasiOned by
the san Francisco fire, during which
the plans for the reconstruction OF the
vault were lost or mislaid. The con-
tractors thought they were in the
hands of the makers and the makers

the project and valuable time was

in the politics OF Maricopa county. Mr..
Bell also slightly raised the average
of the length of the speeches.

~ to the difference between the school
systems of New Mexico and Arizona

ises regarding his conduct as a legis-
lator seeing that he had no experience

WHY WOMEN SUFFER

Women have so much to go through
in life that it is a pity there is SO much
needless suffering from backache,
headache, dizziness, langour and other
common aches and ills of kidney com
plant.
Doan's Kidney Pills have brought
new life and strength to thousands of
women afflicted in this way.
Women are prone to kidney trouble.
They have so much indoor work to do,
so much lifting. bending and STOPPING;
they are bound by custom To tight.
heavy clothing. They get little outdoor
exercise. and any little cold may bring
ON n kidney weakness
Don't worry if you feel tired and
dragged out-ff YOU have baCkache and
bearing down pain. headache. dizzy
spells. faintness and lack ambition
Don't think it's some trouble peculiar
to the sex. Men suffer in the same way
when they have kidney trouble.
ASK yourself this question: Are
my kidneys well?" The condition OF
the kidney secretons may give you an
answer. If there is a brick-dust ssdi-
ment. or a stringy settling in the urine;
if passages are too frequent and copi-
