There Is small snail which Is so
fond Of the sea that it never comes to

The little snail is of a violet colos

TORTURING PAIN.
Half This Mans Sufferings Would
Have Killed Many a Person,
But Doan's Cured Him.

Thousands of grateful people are tell
ing every day how Doan's Kidney Pills
cured them Of distressing and dangerous
kidney and bladder troubles.
Yet other thousands are suffering every
day from these same ills. Why? They
are either very negligent or very skepti-
cal. Neglect of kidney disorders leads to
dropsy, diabetes, Bright's disease and
other fatal diseases.
Sincere, honest testimony like the fol-
lowing should convince every skeptic.

SaIely out is sui tnlru. HaV-
ing taken the plunge. Richard
Williams was now at leisure to con-
template the deeps in which he found
himself. Here he was in a strange
house under a borrowed name and IT,
tie, with little knowledge or expert
ence to enable him to carry off the i'm
position successfully. True, from his
associations with the earl in Texas he
could recall some of the Englishman's
oddities of speech and manner to
which his own soft southern accent
readily accommodated itself but this
was a flmsy scaffolding by which to
build successful fraud. Though well
educated, Richards environment had
afforded him small opportunity to be-
come familiar with the manners of po-
lite society. and his knowledge of Eng
land and English customs. like that of
many better informed Americans. was
meager. On the other hand, he had
plenty of common sense. much of his
fathers native shrewdness. fund of
ready wit, Il cool courage in an emer-
gency and in general nerve enough to
| bTazen out the affair until such time
as he might see fit to make a clean
! breast of it and trust the rest to luck.
Having made his preparations for
luncheon, he was pacing up and down
the rooms which had been assigned to
him, thoughtfully turning the matter
over in his mind, when Il servant an
nounced the arrival of Croyland's man

All" said Richard, very eager to
encounter what might prove to be the
first check and get IL over with SHOW
him up, please"
The servant departed. and to the ad-
venturer came another inspiration.
Here was an opportunity which. If
handled deicately, might lead to bril-
liant results. The valet entered-a
slight man of medium height, with a
clean shaven face. a puttylike COM
plexion and pale, Unconditional eye.
"M' lord"-
The man stopped suddenly, passed
his hand over his mouth and stood star
ing at Richard, while a look of recog-
nition slowly illumined his brain.
why. Mr.. Williams. sir" he burst
out presently. Il thought
"Ah." smiled Richard. in his most in
nocent and beguilng manner, 80 you
haven't forgotten your little trip to
Texas?"

gentlemen. sir" faltered Bills. with a
shudder of remembrance of some prac-
teal Jokes OF which he had been the

Good. Now, attend me carefully.
DO you know anything of the reasons
why your master is in New York;"
"A little, sir. but not much-some
business for the Japs for a foreign
government. sir"
Richard took a thoughtful turn up
and down the room, then faced the
man again.

The Name Bismarck.

Few people know how Bismarck and
his ancestors got their name. Bis
marck is the name OF one OF those
ancient castles a short distance from
Stendal on the road from Cologne to
Berlin, in the center OF the old mar
quisate Of Brandenburg. The castle
had this name because it defended the
"marca," or the line where the river
Blese formed a boundary in former
times or mark of defense against in
truders; hence the name of Bismarck.
