 Whether he blows in at 5:so in the Purple Twilight or shows up at 2:3o | q. M. with chalk on his Hat and a Breath like Gas-leak. he thinks that when he steps across the Threshold the Canary should start to sing and the Missus should begin throwing Hand springs in his Honor, and never dare to ask what kept him.
 Enoch Arden had the immortal nerve to think that he could jim around some remote corner of the Earth for years and years and then come home. when all the other places were closed up and find his Smoking Jacket laid out TOT him and the Evening Paper right on the Centre Table.
 When he discovered that some one had picked the word Welcome out or the Door Mat and that his old friend Philip now was the Plot of the Piece. he went right up in the Air ike Toy Balloon.
 He looked in through the Window and saw that his Wife was happy with No and that no one seemed to be tackine up any Grape on his account.

 The question is. What did Enoch see when he crept up behind the Currant Bushes?
 The whole story is an Invention, specially made to order for Weepers, and if the Finale Is too sad for the present light hearted Generation and violates all laws of Probability, we have a right to read proof on Tenny- son and adapt the wind-up so as to make 1t harmonize with new Condf- tions.
 It is probably true that Annie put her tag on Enoch in preference to Philip.
 She was true Child of Romance. Philip had hatful of Money but Enoch had Curly Hair.
 So the Marriage Bells pealed merrt- ly forth and the gay young Couple wesit directly from the Church to subur- ban Cottage and began to throw do- mestic Utensils at the Wolf.
 Enoch took an invoice after a few years and found that he had here and there Child and one Boat. He fig ured that 1t would require about 150 years at the rate he was going to make himself Independent, so he be- gan to investigate the get-rich- quick Schemes.
 Somebody told him he could do well in China.
 There you have 1t. The Easy Money in this World is always at the other end of the Line.
 Every man who is patrolling Broad way on his Uppers knows that he could make sS0,000 in three months if he were in Los Angeles. Oklahoma looks mighty good to the humble Farmer who owes a large store bill in Illinois, and the main reason why so many en- ergetic People want to get to Nome City Is that the Ticket costs more than they can scrape together.

WHY WOMEN SUFFER-.

There is not a particle of poison in them-just the pure roots and herbs that nature intended for curing the kidneys.
 Doans Kidney Pills cure every form of kidney trouble. Read the testimony of a woman of your own city, perhaps neighbor
 Mrs. A. Josephine Savers, living at } May street. Montgomery, Ala, says: T wish to let all know that I am en- toying better health than I have for years, and that I owe it ail to the cura- tive powers of your wonderful remedy, Doan's Kidney Pills. I have been a suf ferer more or less for years with kid ney disease and rheumatism, and other allied ailments. I suffered greatly from pain in my back and side. had head aches and was tired and nervous all the time. I did not seem to get much If any relief from the doctors or from the remedies I tried and when Deans Kidney Pills were brought to my at tention. l was suffering more than usual, but as soon as I had taken the first few doses. I could see that 1 was being benefited. By the time I had used three boxes I was free from the pain and soreness in my back and kid neys and from that time on l improved and am happy to say that I am now in good health and free from all signs of my old trouble. I trust that my ex- perience with Doan's Kidney Pills will be a help to others"

Women have so much to go through in life that 1t is a pity there is so much needless suffering from back ache. headache, dizziness. languor and other common aches and Ills of kid ney complaint.
 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 stoop- ing they are bound by custom to tight. heavy clothing. They get little outdoor exercise. and any little cold may bring on a kidney weakness.
 Don't worry If you feel tired and dragged out-if you have backache and bearing down pain. headache, dig zy 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 secretions may give you an an- swer. If there Is a brick dust sediment or a stringy settling in the urine if passages are too frequent and copious, or scanty and painful. ii Is time to be- gin using Doan's Kidney Pills. Delay may run you into Brights disease or diabetes.
 Doans Kidney Pills are a special medicine for the kidneys. and do not affect the bowels or any other organs

 One of the most unsatisfactory re- citals that ever opened the fioodgates of. Pari6r Sentiment is that of Enoch Arden.
 Enoch certainly got his. He was Jonahed from the gateway.
 First he performed at the Altar, then he became overstocked with Chil- dren, then he boarded a ship and star ted for China to get bank roll. so that on his return he would be elected to Parliament: then he was shipwreck- ed and cast away and lived on shell fish and bananas for years; then he succeeded in panhandling his way back to the old Stamping Ground, only to learn that friend Wife had hooked up with Philip and was wearing Bells.

 In England, when the story was written, this thing Of getting married was a copper riveted, air tight. cinch Proposition, the same as taking out a 99-year Lease.
 Nobody went in on Probation. Those who tackled it said goodby to their Friends and settled down for a Life Sentence.
 Enoch stayed away a great many years without sending home even a Souvenir Postcard, and when he float ed back into town he expected to find Annie waiting for him with Hot Sup per all ready.

Any one who has Relatives that go Broke occasionally will grasp the sub tie Humor of Tennyson's story.
 Enoch was the only Prodigal son who ever came home Busted and did not demand Chicken three times day and the keys to the Wine Cellar.
 He overlooked a good thing, Proba- bly, he had lived alone on the Tropical Island so long that he was bit Goog- ly--not a clear case of the Bats. but the Sun had got to his Head and made him what Specialists call daffy, or bug.
 He had sense enough to be Hero, but he was shy on sizing up his Legal Rights.

 Before sailing away he staked Annie to q modest little Shop and assured her that she would have no difficuity what ever in downing the big Department Stores and beating the Trusts at their own game.
 < It is not recorded that Enoch hired any Private Detective Agency to watch the House or arranged to have his sister-in-l law write and let him know how Annie was behaving.
 He was the genuine old fashioned type of Trusting Husband-the kind that shows up in n.clodrama and never suspects his wife except when she Is Innocent.

So the only thing for Enoch to do was to evaporate.
 He faded away and kept under cover just because he did not wish to em- barrass his Relations and separate them from their Soft Picking.

The program at the Iris was changed last night and the house was crowded to the doors at both performances. Every one pronounced the show the best yet shown at this house.
