It Is proper to speak of a man under
thirty as "old man" In jocular way
but after that it becomes dangerous
As for old ladies, they have long ago
disappeared. Thirty years ago 1t was
common in society and in print to
speak of an old man or an old lady
without meaning any disrespect or Civ
ing the least offense. Now it is posi-
lively dangerous-in fact, isn't done.
Why this change?
Partly because the physical and
mental condition Of the average person
is better than formerly, but principally
because people have decided not To
grow old That settles it. We are
largely taken at our own valuation and
are not now disposed to make it a low
one. In this city are to be found many
men who retired from business a gen.
Grafton ago It was once the custom
in this country as it is now in Eng
land. that when a man had secured a
competence he retired from active work
and lived serenely. Nowadays 1t is sell
dom done. A competence now means
not an income of a few thousand dol
lars, but an unlimited amount. There
are to be found multimillionaires
above eighty who are just as anxious
to make money as ever, and they seem
to be quite as Philadelphia
Inquirer.

Cupid's Lucky Day.


swhat is the best and luckiest day
to be married on?" somebody once
asked an old gypsy whose fame as
sibyl had spread far and wide. The
venerable dame smiled a sardonlc
smile and answered in oraeular fash
ion: To-day Is never lucky, nor yet
tomorrow. The only lucky day is yes
terday."
But there Is a popular rhyme, SO pop
ular and so we'll known that perhaps |
ought not to quote it yet again, that
tells US definitely what sort Of luck,
good, bad or Indifferent, we may ex-
pect according to wat day we have
chosen on which to appear before the
altar of Hymen.
Monday for wealth.
Tuesday for health,
Wednesday the best Of all;
Thursday for crosses,
Friday for losses,
saturday no luck at all!
October Is said to be the luckiest
month for marriage, though June is
almost equally fortunate. May is sup
posed to be the most unlucky month
out Of all twelve, but 1 have known
several May marriages that have beef
more fortunate, prosperous and happy
than the majority.-Modern Society.

It does seem that women have more than fair share of the aches and pains that afiliet humanity; they must "keep up" must attend to duties in spite of constantly aching backs, or headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down pains; they must stoop over, when to stoop means torture. They must walk and bend and work with raeking pains and many aches and kidney ills. Kidneys cause more suffering than any other organ of ! the body. Keep the kidneys we'll and health is easily maintained, Read of a remedy for kidneys only, that helps and cures the kidneys and is endorsed by people you know.
 Mrs Selina Jones of 200 Main St., Ansonia, Conn.,, says: ''I think if it had not been for Deans Kidney Pills | I would not be alive to-day. Seven years ago was in such a bad condition with pains and aches across my back and other weakness that l was obliged to keep to my room, and was at times confined to my bed for six weeks before could get around. Seeing Doan's Kid ney Pills advertised l began taking them and inside of a week the terrific backache, pains and soreness across the Ioins and the headaches had vanished as we'll as the feeling of general weak ness and languor.
