had been growing on me until l finally

constant misery. There were pains

down in health. / had but little am
bition or energy and it was almost i'm
possible for me to do my household
work. Hearing of Doan's Kidney
Pills, box was procured for me at

almost instant relief. l am still using

Norman Duncan Describes Interview
with Leader Which Well Reveals
Attitude Of the People Of
the Desert.

The sheikh's young son came in,
curiosity having got the better of his
shyness at last; he sidled confidently
to his father, and was there embraced
Tin the way of these Arab fathers);
presently he had snuggled close to his
fathers feet, and was become one of
our company, writes Norman Duncan
in Harper's. l inquired then, in q
blundering way concerning the boys
education-would he be sent to the
schools in Cairo?
He was born here" was the an.
swer.
What matter?"
"He will then truly live here"
ut Is the custom of the western
fathers" ventured, ito advance their
sons above themselves"
How may this be done?" he asked.
1T is said," replied, that the edu-
cation Of the schools promotes it"
IF l send my son away to the
schools" he answered, like a man
who had pondered much upon the
problem and become resolved, II shall
accomplish his ruin. If send him
away he will either remain away or
return; If he remain, he will be for
ever unhappy, having been born to the
freedom of this airy desert: If he re-
turn. he will be forever unhappy also,
having tasted indulgence, having been
corrupted by the luxury of the city.
Now, If send my son away to the
schools, and if he remain away, he will
either succeed or fail in life. But
how, born in this desert, shall he sue
ceed, being forever at disadvantage
in an alien place? If he succeed,
what shall compensate him for the
stress and confinement he must suffer?
He must live in room; but how shall
he endure to live in room? And II
he fail, what then shall become OF
him? l will keep my son with his
tribesmen in the sand, that. he may
| be strong and courageous and free
here we dwell content, cultivating our
few dates, raising our flocks in peace
exchanging our poor wealth for the
corn and cloth Of other places, SO sat

shall man want more than his free
dom? We are oppressed neither by
labor nor wicked men; and we live
in our own place, according to the
will of God"
You are, then, content with the lifl
you have lived?"
1T is so."
"And would live 1t over again, deco
fer deed,- day by day, as you have
lived it, since the bsginning?"
Truly, khawaja!"

In his fur-lined coat the explorer
Shivered..
"The Terra del Fuegan is born in an

Thousand. Of Women. Clubs.

Nobody knows how many women's
clubs there are in the United States
The General Federation of Women's
Clubs was registered in the almanacs
Of 1908 as having over 5000 clubs in
its membership. with 100000 women
on their rolls. But that was in Janu-
ary, 1908, and the federation grows
every year amazingly. 1t contains,
too, only few out of the nulnberless
women's clubs in the land, since there
are small clubs, societies and circles
everywhere which do not affiliate
themselves with any state or national
organization, but exist simply for the
pleasure and profit of their own mem
bership.-Harper's Bazar.

Of his horse than Of his women kind.
But woman, 40 it chanced, was crafty.
"Why does he esteem his horse be.

resolutely faced the task of finding
out.
Her first answer was: "The horse
will carry heavier load"
Her next: THE horse doesn't talk
back at. him."
But neither Of these, somehow, i'm
pressed her as being correct.
Most likely" she declared, at
length, "it's in the grooming. Well,
I'll just be we'll groomed myself and

1t was a lucky guess, and from that
time forward woman's position rose,
relatively, until in our day the horse
has scarcely a look-in, even at the
