The average man is a doubter. This

been humbugged so frequently they
are skeptical. Proof like the follow
ing will stand investigation. 1t can
not be disputed.
George F. Evans, formerly living at
sig Grover street, Owosso, Mich.
says Sin my work in the past l
have done much heavy labor and have
been exposed to the weather which
has served to bring on my kidney
trouble. My back aches great deal
and at times sharp pains would ex.
tend to my shoulders. My kidneys
were much disordered, the secretions
being very frequent and they forced
me to rise often during the night and
greatly disturb my rest. A friend of
mine learned Of my trouble and ad-
vised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills.
I felt relieved from the first, and con.
tinued taking them until l had use the
contents of two boxes, when l was
cured"

INSULTS TO ROYALTY.
Soms Of the Things That Constitute
Leze Majesty In England.


Leze Majesty In England.
Many people think that leze majesty
giving insult to royalty-is not a
crime in Great Britain. The English
statute books, however, contain many
penalties for such offenses.
Placing postage stamp on a letter
upside down is a punishable offense, as
is also the DETACHMENT Of a coin bear
ing the royal image. This is insulting
the kings effigy.
Private individuals may not raise the
royal standard over their dwellings.
This is the emblem of the regal au-
thority to be displayed only where the
king is present.
While an agitator may talk against
royalty in the abstract as much as he
chooses, contemptuous or insulting
personal references to the reigning SOW
ereign opens the offender to a heavy
fine and Imprisonment.
The slightest slap upon the face Of
the king or queen-or any other part
Of the anatomy, for that matter-is
punishable with the death penalty. In
the reign Of Queen Victoria a Lieuten-
ant Page struck her across the face
with his cane. He was sentenced to
death, but the queen committed his
sentence
1t is likewise a crime to bring the
uniform of the sovereign into con-
tempt. To garb a low comedian or a
villain of the stage in discarded uni
form Of the army or the navy is suf-
ficient to bring heavy censure from the
government. For this reason theatrical
managers usually see to it that the
uniforms worn are not exactly copies
Of the real things.

PAPER MAKING IN KOREA.
Hermit Kingdom Supplies Best to
China and Japan.

China and Japan.
1t is not generally known that the
best kinds Of paper met with in China
and Japan are the product Of Korea.
1t is claimed by many that the Korean
paper excels the very best that is made
in China and Japan. 1t is produced
entirely by manual labor and without
the use Of any machinery. The raw
material used for the better kinds Is
obtained from the bark of the Prous-
sonetia papyrifera, which Is collected
in the spring and beaten in water con-
tanning a large admixture of wood
ashes until reduced to thick pulp.
This is taken In large ladies and
spread upon frames of bamboo so as
to form thin sheets. Another kind Of
paper Is made from old scraps trodden
into pulp, much in the same way that
grape juice Is extracted in some coun-
tries, and, though this mode of pulp
ing Is slow, 1t has the advantage of not
breaking the fiber so much as when
machinery is used.
After the pulp has been made into
paper the sheets are piled up to q
height of six feet and then cut into
pieces, to be again subjected to the
stamping with the feet. At the same
time the roots and seeds of a plant
called tackpoul are added, the soluble
parts Of which are supposed to give
tenacity and toughness to the paper

yenturer.
"You would find its Inmates congen-
ial after you followed that course, l
am sure, but If l were in your place
I'd do nothing of the kind"
'Why not?"
"For various reasons. In the first
place, what good will it do? Would
you then be in a position to tell your
father? No; you see that clearly for
yourself. You will be invited to leave
1rvington and will accept the invita-
tion promptly. Thus endeth the first
lesson, Miss Harriet .Renwyck being

Geedings against one Bill Williams for
obtaining information by fraud in the
person of his son.
"But, my dear SIR" cried Dick, with
some asperity, 81 had no such inten-
tion. | assure you. The information
was-well it was forced on me-"
"Ahaw exclaimed the old lawyer
knowingly. THAT'S just the delicate
point. I'm speaking legally. or course
you're innocent. You know it, and /
believe ii, but how about a jury Of
your peers? To put it bluntly, you
have taken the name of wounded
and helpless man without his knowl-
edge or consent. You have bribed his
servant. Bad point, Dick-very bad.
Then you creep into a confdlng old
gentleman's house and worm away the
secrets of his inmost heart. The al
legged pursuit of the girl is merely a
blind to cover your deep laid, crafty,
nefarious designs, which,

revelation of his perfidy by the law

as hard to bear as il it had been a
truthful indictment. Don't put 1t
that way! You make me feel like an
actual criminal. Next I'll be stealing
their cut glass and silver hairbrushes."
81 am merely looking at it from a
legal point of view," said the little man
solemnly. "To confess to Jacob now
is the very worst policy imaginable"
"Then what am to do?" demanded
the young man savagely.
"Brazen it out" advised his counsel,
striving to suppress the dancing hui
NOR in his eyes. But, for the Lords

Mr.. Corrfgan began to chuckle and
to rub his hands violently.
I'm afraid" he said, with great
conviction. "that Bill will have to play
this hand alone. You can't help him,
young man, and you've got to trust to
luck. If your father finds out about
the deal he may pull down Jacobs lad
der; If not-well, I'm almost as sorry
for Bill as am for his son."
Richard drew his brows together in
q troubled frown.
"And is that all the advice you can
give me?" he asked, hoping against
hope.
mo said the little man; there is
one more suggestion, and sound one,
too, by George! My vision is a shade
imperfect owing to creeping age, but
think see Harriet over yonder I'M
der the trees. l, as your counsel, di-
rect you to go and talk to her."
This last piece of advice was too
good to be neglected, and Richard, dis.
missing his cares, followed it forth

The Grange and Local Affairs.

We believe that the grange should
make itself more of force In the COM
munity where 1t exists. There are
many public questions of a strictly
local nature which the grange can dis
cuss and act upon and which will be
for the improvement of local condi-
tons. We need suggest but q few,
such as the public school. village i'm
provement. cemetery Improvement.
good streets. good sanitary conditions.
planting and protecting of shade trees.
rejection of the right kind of men for
local public offices. enforcisg local laws
md regulations, to the end that better
physical and better moral conditions
may prevail. We sometimes think that
we try too hard to reform state and
national matters and too little to make
local conditions what they should be-

Financial LEGISLATION.

The question of financial legislation
is now receiving such attention in both
houses that we have a right to expect
action before the close of the session.
1t is urgently necessary that there
should be such action. Moreover, ac-
ton should be taken to establish postal
savings banks. These postal savings
banks are imperatiyely needed for the
benefit of the wageworkers and men
of small means and will be valuable
adjunct to our whole financial system.
Time For Tariff Revision.
The time has come when we should
prepare for revision of the tariff.
This should be, and indeed must be,
preceded by careful investigation. 1t
is peculiarly the province of the con-
gress and not of the president. and in
deed peculiarly the province of the
house of representatives. to originate a
tariff bill and to determine upon it's
terms, and this l fully realize. Yet it
seems to me that before the close of
this session provision should be made
for collecting full material which will
enable the congress elected next fall
