After our boy was born-that was
the second year, we were here-he went
back east, and took a name that was
neither his nor mine. to show his father
that he was able to work for the wo-
man he loved. 1 am married to your
son, Mr.. Fairbain. I guess you've for
gotten that Gregory married Martha
Bodington- From what Gregory told
me, you called me everything but my
right name at that last interview"
Perhaps did," was the shamefaced
reply. Il guess I did not know what 1
was saying, and I'm certain that 1
didn't know the sort of a girl 1 was
talking about"

prairie, where the secretary was to be
seen riding across the section with the
mail
And Wilson is Gregory? You mean
to say 1 didn't know my own boy when
I hired him?" asked Fairbain. with a
chuckle. ITO think that all the time
he has been here, I've been fretting be-
love him. And all that time you were
married to him. I'm rather glad, my
dear, that 1 made my second marriage
by proxy, so long as you will make
home for Greg and the boy and me-"
Il was SO afraid that you would rec
ognize Greg" said Martha as she re-
garded the tall figure of the secretary
with a look of frank admiration.
He assumed an excellent disguise"
reminded Fairbain. 81 never thought to
find my son worker, my dear. That's

The wife of a New York millionaire
has started an anti-noise crusade and
has had several monograph records
made of the noises that may be heard
every day and night in the week on the
thoroughfares of New York city She
turned a few of these loose before an
audience in Boston which she was try
4ng to get interested to the extent of
starting a similar reform in that city
and such a terrific din was made by the
noise records that the police felt called
upon to stop the exhibition of them A
Boston newspaper describes the noise
as sounding like medley of cats on a
back fence, with a good sized dog fight
in the foreground. and three or four
cheering throngs at Yale-Harvard foot
ball games in the distance tuned up
with a circus parade and its bands
Everyone ought to be willing to admit
that this reformer has proved the worth
of her cause

Another fond illusion has been
shattered. A national lecturer for the
Philosophical society recently de-
1ivered himself in Chicago of the In
formation that the snakes seen by the
drunken man are real. He says that
the intoxicated person who sees
snakes actually sees them on the
astral plane. The drunken state
serves to develop the psychic eye and
thus objects are seen on the astral
plane instead of the physical The
horrors that the intoxicated man
sees are perfectly real on the plane
that his vision is focused, says this
gentleman. and he continues that sit

The court room at San Francisco
where the Reuf trial has been re-
eumed is likened to an arsenal with
the armed guards that now infest and
surround it. This is only another
case of locking the stable door after
the horse has made an exit. Perhaps
there would have been no attempted
assassination of Mr.. Heney if San
Francisco had an ample ordinance
regulating the sale of fire arms. And
the outrage against justice which was
recently perpetrated there ought to be
a sufficient pointer for the other COM
munities in the land to adopt ordi-
nances of this sort.

of the law of sobriety. The penalties
meted out on the astral plane are as
painful as the penalties which men
suffer in the material world" All of
which is interesting and should be a
sufficient warning to men not to get
into such a condition that they will
get a peek into the astral plane. And
all may be thankful that the astral
plane is so far removed from the ken
of normal folks

Mr.. Gompers announces that if he
Is adjudged guilty of contempt of
court in the proceedings against him
which are pending in this regard he
will go to Jail before he will pay
fine or permit the American Fedora
ton of Labor to pay it for him.
That's his privilege but when the
judgment is pronounced against him
it may be that he will have no alter
native. There have been such things
as sentences to Jail for contempt of
court in place of fines and sometimes
both penalties have been melted out.

The reason the baby is always SO
smart is because its parents aren't.
When a girl meets a man she likes in
the street by accident it hardly ever is.
All a woman has to do to be able to
manage a man is not to be married to
him.
A woman can deceive everybody
about how she trusts her husband,
especially herself.
If a man didn't waste his money on
his own favorite foolishness he would
on some other fellows.

Does Your Spine shiver?

"a shivering spine,'' said a psycholo-
gist, sis the one infallible proof of an
artistic temperament. Does a shiVer
run up and down your spine when you
listen to beautiful music, or read a
lovely poem, or look at a superb paint
ing? If not, the gates Of art are closed
to you forever.
IAN great artists and all good critics
experience this shivering sensation of
the backbone before a worthy work of
art, some of these men use the shiver
as a measure; the work that does not
evoke it they pronounce a failure. My

HIDDEN DANGERS.
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Orangeburg Citizen Can
Afford to Ignore.

DANGER SIGNAL Nc. 1 comes
from the kidney secretions. They
will warn you when the kidneys are
sick. Well kidneys excrete clear
amber fluid. Sick kidneys send out
a thin, pale land foamy, or a thick
red, ill-smelling urine, full of sedi-
ment and irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute tell you
of sick kidneys and warn you of the
approach of dropsy, diabetes and
Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure sick kidneys and cure
them permanently.
