How They Found Out.

When the Lawtons had lived in VII
low Park about a month they were In
vited to a succession of little dinners
Mt the houses OF their new neighbors
MFR. Lawton was ON a dyspeptic's diet
and Mrs. Lawton was endeavoring to
reduce her weight. II suppose we shall
have to eat all sorts Of things we don't
wish or else seem rude" said Mrs.
Lawton morrnfully as they set out for
the first dinner.
To their growing surprise, the bills
Of fare placed before them at each din
ner, although not remarkably varied,
were all composed of such dishes as
they could both enjoy.
II don't see how you all hit on Just
the right things when Mr.. Lawton and
| really are such difficult guests" said
Mrs. Lawton in burst of confidence
one afternoon when the neighbors were
taking tea with her.
The ladies' looked at each other, and
then one Of them spoke.
"You know Mary Sloan, who comes
to wash for you Tuesday mornings?'
she said. "Well, have her Mondays,
and Mrs. Green has her Wednesdays,
and she irons for Mrs. Porter Thurs
days and scrubs for Miss Homer Fri
days, so you see''-
Her voice tralled of into silence, but
Mrs. Lawton no longer wondered. She
.saw."

Doan's Kidney Pills so strongly.
This remedy relieved me at that time
of an annoying attack of kidney COM

while, and had become aggravated
by cold which settled in my back.
The relief was speedy and lasting,
