TINE IS THE TEST
The Testimony of Richmond People
Stands the Test.

The test of time is what tells the
tale. The public soon finds out when
Misrepresentation are made, and mer.
1t alone will stand the test OF time.
Richmond people appreciate merit,
and many months ago local citizens
publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills :;
they do so still. Would a citizen make
the statement which follows unless
convinced that the article was just as
represented? A cure that lasts Is the
kind that every sufferer from kidney
ills is looking for.
Mrs. Edgar S. Mote, of II North Six
teenth street, Richmond, Ind, says:
Some years ago my husband was hav-
ing some trouble with his back. There
was a dull aching pain that bothered
him most of the time. He was told
about Doan's Kidney Pills and got a
supply at A. G. Luken & Cos drug
store. After taking it he never again
mentioned backache to me. He be-
lieved that Doan's Kidney Pills are a
great remedy and has told several peo-
pie of the benefit he got through us.

DANCING PILGRIMS.
The Annual Carnival of the "satnt.''
of Echternach.

OF Echternach-
on every succeeding Whitsun Tues
day from time ianem0rial 1900 to
10000 pilgrims of both sexes and of ev.
cry age and condition Of life dance
for four or FIVE hours AT Echternach, in
the grand duchy of Luxembourg. to an
unm !stakable polka tune and an appar-
emily nonsensical refrain. The central
figure OF this great Echternach spring
procession" is st Willibrord, who mi
grated from Northumberland TO the
frontiers of the Black forest twelve
centuries ago. Emperors and kings
have in vain forbidden the saints" OF
Echternach to indulge in their annual
carnival.
With the peasantry Of East Luxem-
burg and Eiffel the ''springprozession"
is as popular today as IL was in 1l31.
when King Lothaire came to pray at
st. Willibrord's tomb. The simple mind
ed jewellers on the banks of the Sure
and the Moselle are firmly convinced
that their best hope OF freedom from
nervous diseases In this world and eter-
nal salvation in the next lies In this
mystic dance of five steps forward and
two backward. by which. after three
hours indescrihahle toll. they cover the
two or three miles intervening between
the starting point, at which the pill
grims receive the episcopal blessing
and the goal at the steps of st. Will
brord's shrine.

Zanzibar is not like an American city
in the width of it's streets and the ar

scarcely a thoroughfare in the whole

ton is almost as primitive as that of
the garden of Eden: hence some Of the
smells. Fortunately the Glove forests
are not far away. Zanzibar has nc
docks or wharfs. All goods are landed
or shipped by means of lighters. The
tidal rise is about fourteen feet and
the fall necessarily the same. Vast
stretches Of beach are thus left bare

Board of Education Rules
Against Little Fellow.

Tamaqua, Pa. July 2o.-The board
of education of this city has ruled
against Cupid. When the public school
is opened for the fall term it will be
found that the male teachers are mar
ried and the women teachers are maid
ems who have promised not TO wed in
the term for which they have been ap-
pointed.
II is the latest idea to prevent the
confusion that has been an annual
thorn in the side of the board. because
so many pretty teachers sentin their
designations inorder TO marry male
teachers. The board believes il has
solved the problem.
The women teachers must have
signed antimarriage contracts.
