A GREAT SAVING.

Here is an amusing tale from
Germany about a man who thought
he was a very clever financler, and
vet does not seem TO have had qllite
ms much sense as a boy who Knows
enough to 90 in when it rains:
4 barge was being towed up the
Neckar from Mannheim to Heldel-
berg. and shoemaker on the tramp,
with a large knapsack on his back,
came up and asked the barseman
how much he would charge him for
ride on the boat. The bargen.an,
who was bit of a wag, replied:
Fifteen kreuzers but if you help
pull, only SIX" The shoemaker
thought the matter over for a
minute or two, and, calculating that
he would save nine kreuzers by
helping to pull, threw his bag into
The boat and cheerfully tugged at
The rope all the way to Heidelberg,
when he forked out the six kreuZers
and shouldered his knapsack again.

After the Battle.
IcONTRIBUTED.i

Even in the face of defeat the
local option question has already
brought great good to our city.
Whatever of profit may be ours is
certainly due in a large measure to
the good women and dear children
who labored so continuously and
earnestly through the day.
To those who saw how Christian
women stood for hours at a time
about the polls and plead with
song and prayer. there can be no
doubt that such conservation must
have moved some hearts to nobler
impulses and stirred some desire to
live better lives.
Hearts of stone would almost
have yielded to the softening inhu-
ences of that great company Of
children with innocence and purity
written on their bright faces as
they marched and sang, bearing
banners, pleading for the home.
Some of the noble women felt at
first report of defeat that their
work had been in vain. But such
is not the case.
Boys and even grown men were
so impressed with what they heard
and saw that day that their lives
must necessarily be made better.
Good seeds were sown that shall
be multiplied over and over. Such
work can not he lost.
The interest taken by the boys
in the drill has 50 impressed their
young hearts with the difference
between the character of those with
whom they labored and those who
are the victims of the vice they
were opposing that some. if not all
Of them, surely will be made
stronger in the resistance of temp
tation and led to make noble men.
This alone should be a source of
great qualification to those who
were on the losing side.
Then while this battle seems to
have ended disastrously, the end is
not yet, and those who have taken
up this fight have been inspired by
the faithful effort Of these women
and children and are more deter
mined than ever to have the sue
cess 50 coveted. -Kentuckian Citi-

The Evacuation of ManChuria.

The announcement of the evacu-
alton Of Manchuria by Russia and
japanese forces. in accordance
with the treaty fixing April ID.
1907. as the limit of time for the
transfer. marks the removal of the
last vestige of war which two years
ago was drenching Manchurian
fields with blood.
Russia was so faithful to the
treaty that her troops were re-
moved by March u. An official
of the Foreign Office in st. Peters
burg is quoted:
1T is a complete justification of
Russia's good faith in fulfilling the
treaty"
Had Russia carried out her pied
ges faithfully before the war. his
tory would have been different.
There would have been no war
between Russia and Japan. Japan
would not now be filling the exalt-
ed place she holds in the family of
nations.
For it was because Russia went
back on previous pledges to take
her troops out of Manchuria that
Japan opened hostilities. Japan
demanded that she withdraw her
troops. She temporized, dubbed
and made promises, and her troops
stayed on. If she had gone away
five years ago she would not now
be struggling under the burden of
an enormous war debt, the best
part of her navy would not be at
the bottom of the sea, a hundred
thousand of her citizens would not
have met death on the battlefield
and hundreds of thousands of
others would not have undergone
the tortures of war, while her
prestige as a nation would not be a
thing of shreds and patches. -

THE PENALTY OF OVERWORK.

Work has been mans lot since tn, creation, but a day of toll should not have its penalty of pain. Why is it, then, you ask, that packache so often follows? It is because the modern tendency is to overwork. to tear down faster than nature can rebuild. An unnatural strain Is thrown upon the vital organs, and moro especially upon the kidneys, which have the work of hltering the blood free of waste and poison.
 The heavy tax of overwork--th strain upon the back that is so com mon to many trades and occupations, is to great The kidneys begin to fail in their work. and there is a dou- zs,S cGnger to health. The poisonous matter collects in the system, and the kidneys themselves begin to break down.
 Pain in the back is only a warning of trouble in the kidneys. An infiam- nation has set in. and a disordered condition Of the urine soon becomes apparent.
 Too much or too little urine. with a constant desire to void the secre- tions; any noticeable deviation from the normal color; the appearance of a sandy sediment, proves a disordered condition of the kidneys. that needs quick attention.
 If your work seems hard for you, If you have a lame, weak or aching back, if you seem tired and listless, and seem to be running down without ap- parent couse, begin at once with

 Montgomery Proof.
 W. M. Hudsoin. living at 12 Madison Avenue, Montgomery, Ala, says: T am glad to state that have received much benefit from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills. About three years ago, began suffering from a disordered condition of the kidneys and intense backache and dizzy spells. No matter what I did or what took or used. 1t was all the same. I could get noth- ing to relieve me tried many so call ed kidney remedies, plasters and lini- ments but none that I used did moro than afford me temporary relief and as soon as I discontinued their use, would be just as bad as before. It was not until had got to that point where I was in pain all the time both day and night, sometimes so I could not sleep, that I heard of Doan's Kid ney Pills and commenced using them. Had I known of them before, it would have saved me many dollar and many an hours pain. I began impfov ing almost from the start; every dose helped me and I took only four boxes when I was cured They relieved ma entirely of pains, headaches. dizzy spells and kidney disturbance and I know that have a wonderful remedy in Doans Kidney Pills.

Lesson of the Ticker.

In the crowd around a ticker in e down town restaurant yesterday morning. says a New York paper. watching the bull and bear contest. as 1t was reflected on the tell tale tape. was an elderly man who main tained his place where he could see every letter and figure as 1t appeared fresh from the type. Others spoke, gave opinions. made prophecies and in many ways showed nerv- ous strain But the little man never said a word until the tape record "C-gS' came to view. Then he said: That's hard one on some of you men. suppose, but it made what I thought a fortune for me not so very long ago. I was induced to take my hard earned money and put 1t into sths stock market, and the day 'C-9s' came as you saw it sold out and was rich man for my class. I haven't had a good nights sleep since then. You're all going my way, boys, only what was high for me Is low for you--what made rich that time will break you today, and I'm glad of it. Take my advice"-The rest of his sermon was lost, for an unsympathetic waiter hustled the little man away from the ticker and he drifted out into the rain, mumbling, Cop per 9s."
