A HOLIDAY QUIET
Pervails about the Court
House Now.

Things are so dull about the tenn
pie of justice now that the atmos-
phere is almost oppressive, Claud
Clark has gone East and Feland
Clark has scarcely enough to do to
keep him awake. Still he has energy
enough to be polite, as he always is.
In the Sheriffs Office every thing is
almost as still as a graveyard at
night. County Clerk Campbell has
more than enough time to attend to
his private affairs and Will Wicks,
who hasn't been home long from
an eastern trip, has nothing much to
do except to write in his daily
journal about What Saw In New
York." only one marriage license
having been applied for this month.
Across the hall in the County Judges
office, Harvey Breathitt. the clerk,
is keeping things in order and smok-
ing his pipe of peace" Even the
loafers around the front door are
few and far between and have al
most exhausted themselves in trying
to get up new joke and have re-
sorted to gossip.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps
Us Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every
three minutes. The kidneys filter
the blood. They work night and
day. When healthy they remove
about 500 grains of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part of
this impure matter is left in the
blood. This brings on many diseases
and symptoms-pain in the back,
headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatism, govt, gravel, disorders
of the eyesight and hearing, dizzi-
ness, irregular heart, debility, drow-
siness, dropsy, deposits in the urine,
etc. But if you keep the filters
right you will have no trouble with
your kidneys.
Mrs. w. 1. Bailey, living on East
Greenville street. Madisonville, KY,
says: 'It is four years since l re-
commended Doan's Kidney Pills
through our papers, and my conf
dence in them during the time which
has elapsed has not been shattered
in the least, but to the contrary, l
learned more about them and can
recommend them even more strong
ly. said at that time that Mr..
Bailey had suffered with kidney
complaint off and on for a number
of years, and had used almost every
known remedy for this trouble but
nothing brought permanent results.
He finally learned of Doan's Kidney
Pills and got box. They benefited
him in every way, more so than all
the other kidney medicines he had
ever tried. He has used them many
tin les during the past four years,
and they have never failed to give
him relief from these severe attacks.
have used Doan's Kidney Pills my
self for a weakened condition of the
kidneys and they proved just as
satisfactory in my case. We both
think there is no remedy like Doan's
Kidney Pills"

Industrial Reader Foods-has been
issued by the American Book Co.
This is the first of a new series of
supplementary readers, written by
author of the phenomenally success
full Geographical Readers.
The book will give children a
knowledge of the production and
preparation of foods, and show how
civilization and commerce grew from
mans need of foods and the ex-
change of foods between the various
nations. The author takes the
children on personally conducted
tours to the great food centers of
the world, to the markets of ex-
change, to the factories, the farms,
the forests and the seas. Together
they visit the wheat fields, the flour
mills, the cattle ranches and the
packing houses. They learn to un-
derstand the manufacture of dairy
products, and go to the fisheries, to
the orchards and vineyards, and to
the tea, coffee, rice and sugar planta-
tons. The volume is as interesting
as any story book, and is profusely
and attractively illustrated from
photographs.

Bill Arp On Newspapers.

Inevertook a paper that didn't pay
me more than I paid for it. One time
an old friend of mine started a paper
way down South and sent a copy to
me and I subscribed just to encourage
it and after a while it published an
order to sell a lot at public auction.
So I enquired about the lot and told a
friend to run it up to $50. He bid off
the lot at $3s and sold it in less than
a month for 500, so I made 500 clear,
by taking that paper. My father told
me that when he was a young man
he saw a notice in a paper that a
school teacher was wanted away off
in a distant country, and he went and
got the situation. A little girl was
sent to him, and after a while she
grew up sweet and beautiful and he
married her. Now, if he had not
taken that paper what do you suppose
would have become of me? I would
have been some other fellow, OF may
be / would not have been at all. Do
you take a paper? If not you'd bet
ter hustle and get one at once

In order that the young man may
know what is coming to him when he
asks a girl to marry, him, we quote
the following acceptance from a pop
ular novel:
ssshe put her fower-like face to

"'My first thought Of you and my
last are the same, beloved she ans
wered, and the thought is this-that
you have a heart for whose belated
waking queens might keep vigil"
Does a man, in addition to the con-
tract to buy a woman's clothes and
groceries for the rest of her life, have
to stand for something like this?7

An Arkansas Bath.

Henry James, the novelist, arrived
at 10 o'clock one night at a Florida
hotel and could get nothing to eat.
The hotel was magnificent and ex-
pensive, but it's rule was to serve no
food after a certain hour, and in con-
sequence MI. James went hungry to
bed.
Discussing the hardship afterward,
he said:
81 felt, indeed, like the %tenderfoot
who visited an Arkansas hotel back
in the '7Os.
SIT was a primitive hotel, and the
guest, on his arrival, said to the land
lord tentatively:
"sLandlord, I'd like a BATH
"'All right was the reply.
"And the landlord went out, re-
turning in ten minutes with a tin a
of soft soap, a towel, a pick and
shovel.
"The eastern guest took up the can
of soft soap and the towel, but at the
pick and shovel he looked askance.
"'What are these for ? he said.
"'Wa'al, stranger said the land
lord. the waters low an yell hev to
dam up the creek. '"-Washington
