IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.

Many people never. suspect their

it is only muscular weakness when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kid

danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes

to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. It

weak or diseased kidneys. Lancaster
people testify to permanent cures.

Ward, Lancaster, Wis, says: II
suffered severely from pains in my
back and hips for few years. Dur
ing that time l suffered severely and
took many remedies but did not
succeed in getting any satisfactory
relief from any of them. At last
Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to
my attention. and I procured box at

A POOR GROCER.
Audubon's Lame Attempt to Succeed
as a Merchant.

Audubon's Lame Attempt to Succeed
as a Merchant.
1t is not generally remembered that
the worldwide reputation of Audubon
as a naturalist incidentally is due to
his failure to establish himself perma
nently as a Missouri grocery merchant
ana dealer in the best brands of Ken
lucky whisky.
In 1910 he and Ferdinand Rozier Of
st. Genevieve loaded a keel boat at
Louisville, KY, with 80 barrels of
whisky and groceries and started down
the Ohio and Mississippi to st. Gene
We've to open grocery store. The trip
was made during the winter, and the
streams were so full of ice that the
boat was drawn up against the bank
and winter quarters were established
just below Cape Girardeau. When st.
Genevieve was reached, after the open
ing of navigation, the firm of Audu-
bon & Rozier opened their store and
did a prosperous business. But the
business was done by Rozier, for Au-
dubon preferred the woods to the coun-
ter and devoted more of his time to
sketching and stufing birds than he
did to marketing the 80 barrels Of
Kentucky bourbon or any other gro
ceries. This led to a dissolution of the
partnership. On April II. 1911, Audu-
bon. convinced of his unftness for
business, sold out to Rozier and took
up the work for which he was better
fitted than any one who had lived be-
fore or who has lived since and from
a fourth rate grocer became the great
ornithologist. The grocery business
which Audubon abandoned grew until
finally it extended throughout all of
upper Louisiana" kansas City Star.

THE FRUIT CROP.
Some Ideas Worth Putting Into Prac-
tice Next Season.

Some Ideas Worth Putting Into Prac-
tice Next Season.
It is a mistake to suppose that fruit
bearing plants will do their best If
they receive attention only now and
then. Irregular care will not amount to
much. Moreover, the cultivator should,
as soon as the bearing season is over,
begin to consider what may be done
to induce a better crop next year.
Many old plantations Of raspberries
and blackberries that are filed with
dead canes and weeds can be so re-
newed and renovated that they will
bear an abundance of fine fruit. To
keep a berry patch in the highest state
Of productiveness the old canes should
be removed after fruiting and the
young growth of small canes properly
pruned out and thinned in the row. If
this is neglected next year you will
have a small crop of inferior berries,
good neither to eat nor to sell.
Blackberries and the red or sucker
varieties of raspberries require similar
culture. In May begin to cultivate and
to thin plants in the row. Blackber-
ries should be thinned so the plants
will stand at an average distance Of

Bird Structure.

Birds belong to the vertebrates, or
backboned animals. They are distin-
guished from the rest of the verte-
brates by the graceful outlines of their
bodies. by their clothing Of feathers,
toothless jaws and the fore limbs, or
wings, being adapted to flying. Nature
has made many wonderful provisions
I'm the bird, especially in the formation
and arrangement of the bones. These
are compact and in many cases hollow,
thus combining lightness with strength.
The first bone of the backbone is so
freely jointed to the skull that birds
can turn their heads around and look
directly back.

REPUBLICAN TICKET.
THE SENATORIAL SITUATION.

The Herald give space, upon
another page Of todays' paper, to the
publication of letter from Mr.. l.. h.
Stevens, cashier of the First National
Bank, of this city, in favor of the
candidacy of Hon. Isaac Stephenson
for re election to the U. S. Senate,
together with comment of other OF his
friends and reproductions from a few
of the many state papers favorable to
his cause. The editor OF the Herald
has not the pleasure of personal
acquaintance with either OF the
senatorial candidates in this campaign
and as four of them are republicans,
in the favor of all of whom much
could be truthfully be said, and per
haps very little could honestly be
urged in opposition, yet each OF
them representing to less or greater
extent either side in the factional
differences which have created much
discord in republican ranks in the
past few years, to the detriment OF
the best interests of the party, we
have abstained from taking sides in
the contest, preferring to let our
readers decide for themselves upon
which one their choice shall rest.
From time to time matter concern
ing each of the republican candl-
dates has been given space in our news
columns, but. no editorial endorse
ment has been given to either OF
them. Nor do we give such now.
What is published upon the page
referred to is simply for the informa
ton of the public and we wish it
understood that we assume no edi-
.torial responsibility for it SO far as
committing our personal endorsement
to Mr.. Stephensons or either OF his
opponents is concerned.
This is the first time in Wiscon-
sims history that the people have bad
a chance to vote directly for candi-
date for senator. Next Tuesday is the
day and the opportunity is up to them
to say whom they think is the man
for the place.

A WOMAN OF QUICK WIT.
Susan 3. Anthony Never Lacked a
Ready Reply.

Ready Reply.
Few lives so lend themselves to dra-
matte narration as Susan B. Anthony's,
says the Delineator. 1t ranged from
tragedy to comedy, with scattered bits
of melodrama. she ever in the center of
the stage With her everything was
always intensely realistic-not acting.
Miss Anthony had peculiar faculty
of condensing a whole speech into
single sentence. For instance, when
she heard men lamenting that the pro-
fession of teacher was not respected as
much as the other professions, "Do you
not see that so long as society says
woman has not brains enough to be a
doctor, lawyer Oh minister, but has
plenty to be a teacher, every man of
you who condescends to teach tacitly
admits before all Israel and the sun
that he has no more brains than wo-
manP And when Horace Greeley said
to her at Albany, "You know the bal
lot and bullet go together-if you vote,
are you ready to fight?" instantly she
retorted, Eyes, Mr.. Greeley, just as you
fought in the late war-at the point OF
goose quillp' Again, when she was
talking on divorce and the Rev. A. d.
Mayo, thinking to annihilate her, said,
"You are not married; you have no
business to be discussing marriage"
"Well, Mr.. Mayo" she answered, "you
are not a slave; suppose you quit lee
turing on slavery"

them Keep the ground clean with
cultivator and hoe and the soil stirred

Keep in mind the tree form when
pruning. Pinch off the top when the
cane is about four feet high. The lat
erals will then grow, and you will have
a bush something like tree pruned to
vase form. The laterals should be cut
back to one or two feet in length, and
the new growth will then make a bush
of sufficient size to make large crop
Tender varieties that must be lai,
down in winter should not be so
pruned. Blackcap raspberries and
blackberries require more room be-
tween the plants in the row than red

Cultivate, if possible, until July. then
place a heavy mulch of strawy manure
between the rows to retain the moiS
ture and furnish plant food. Set posts
four or five feet high. Nail two pieces
of board about two feet long and foul
inches wide horizontally on the posts
one at the top and one about three
feet from the ground. Nail smooth
fence wire to the ends Of these boards
or arms to support the canes.
The plan described for raspberries
and blackberries may be best adapted
to general culture, but there is another
by which the finest dessert fruit may
be grown. Set the plants about sever
feet apart each way, allow only three
or four canes to grow in a hill, sci
three posts around these in the form
of triangle and nail some wire around
them for a support. Make the soil ricl
