WOMEN'S WOES
PERRYsBURG WOMEN ARE FIND.
ING RELIEF AT LAST.

1t does seem that women have
more than fair share of the aches
and pains that afflict humanity; they
must keep up" must attend to du-
ties in spite of constantly aching
backs, or headaches, dizzy spells,
bearing down pans; they must stoop
over, when to stoop means torture.
They must walk and bend and work
with racking pains and many aches
from kidney ills. Kidneys cause more
suffering than any other organ of the
body. Keep the kidneys well and
health is easily maintained: Read
of remedy for kidneys only that
helps and cures the kidneys.
Mrs. Frank Bulask, of 1910 La
Grange ST., Toledo, o., says: Dur
ing the spring of 1898, after a ma
larial attack l felt generally run
down. Symptoms of kidney trouble
began to appear, and as l had used
Doans Kidney Pills previously with
satisfaction, it was naturally the
first remedy that l tried. Now 1 can
say that Doan's Kidney Pills have
twice cured me of pain in the back
and other symptoms of kidney trou-
BILE, and a remedy of this kind that
can be depended on ought to be gen
orally known"

WEsLEYs WIFE AND CHILDREN
Two Sons Early in Life Showed Re.
narkable Musical Genius.

Charles Wesley's reputation has suf
fered not a little from the overshadow
ing predominance of his brother, says
a writer in Zion Herald. There is nc
disputing, however, but that at one
point he greatly surpassed both John
Wesley and George Whitefield-he
had most happy welded life. 1t was
in the spring of 174S, when he was nc
longer young, that he first began Sc
riously to entertain thoughts of mar.
riage.
Miss Sarah Gwynne, girl of %,
daughter of a pious family occupying
a high position in Wales, attracted
him by her many lovable qualities.
Brother John heartily approved the
match. There was trouble at first
on the part of the brides people over
the question of settled income, C 100
year being thought the smallest
amount that would suffice. This was
finally guaranteed from the profits OF
the books, and Saturday, April 8, 1749,
the wedding took place, John Wesley
tying the knot.
1t was an ideal Christian marriage.

three grew up, and two became very

Charles Wesley, Jr., and Samuel. Both
showed remarkable musical genius
from their earliest years.
Charles was a great favorite with
George ILL.,, his private organist occa.

created much excitement by his won.

He played tune to the harpsichord
at the age of two years and nine
months He was called by one of the
highest authorities of the day "the
greatest genius in music I met with"
His death was in 1884.
Samuel (who died in 1887 leaving a
numerous family was recognized as
the best organist of his oday and was
a gifted composer. At the age of eight
he wrote an oratorio called Ruth
which was much admired. For sew
eral years he and his brother gave a
series of famous concerts at their ia.

Rev. DIR, Wesley, sub-dean of the
Chapel Royal, and also Samuel Sebas.

1t Is estimated that three hundred
thousand Americans have crossed the
Atlantic this year and spent on an av-
erage of S700 each or two hundred and
ten millions of dollars. Foreign coun-
tries profit immensely from American
tourists. In Switzerland, hotel keep
ers live off the trayelers, largely Amer
leans, the year round. In twenty
years, the number of hotels in that
country has increased from one thous-
and to over two thousand. But the
larger number of Americans go to
Europe to see the wonderful art treas
ures to be found in the galleries and
museums of London, Paris, the
Hague, Berlin, Dresden, Munich'
Florence, Rome and other cities.
If it were not for the high tariff
on art which no one, not even the ar
lists of this country, approve, the
best specimens of European art would
be in our own galleries, and millions
of dollars would be annually retained
in the United States.

"What's the matter with Kansas?"
may be answered by saying that she
lacks twenty-five thousand men to

of the lack of men is that the Kansas

harvesting.
