Should wander from the path Of

ward the settin sun
He'd find the row he had to hoe a
mighty rocky one,
He'd miss his fathers counsel an
his mothers prayers, too.
But he said the farm was hateful an
he guessed he'd have to go.
know there's big temptations for
a youngster in the West.
But l believed our Billy had the
courage to resist,
An when he left | told him OF the
ever waitin snares
That lie like hidden serpents in life 5

But Bill he promised faithful to be
keerful an allowed
He'd build reputation that'd make
us mighty proud,
But it sees as how my counsel sort
O faded from his mind.
And now the boys in trouble OF the
very wustest kind.
His letters come SO seldom that we
somehow sort O. knowed
That Billy was trampin' in d
mighty rocky road,
But never once imagined he would
bow my head in shame

Many Lexington People Suffer
From Nervous Troubles and
non't Know whv.

Thousands of cases of kidney trouble
show few outward symptoms except
nervousness, depression, languor, irrita-
bilitity and al inclination to worry ov-
or trifes. It is generally due to the
poisonous action Of uric acid on blood
and nerves, and can't be cured except
by curing the kidneys. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure these ills by curing the kid
neys. Lexington women are learning
it.
w. P. Metts, Of New Brookland
near Lexington: S. c., says: IL suffer
ed severely at times from attacks OF
kidney trouble. Severe pains caught
me in the small of my back and were
so severe that was unable to get about
for days. The kidney secretions were
very irregular in passage and often a
retention existed. I finally heard about
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured them at
the Kaufman Drug Co., and since US
ing them I am free from my former
trouble. I now feel better in every way
and heartily endorse Doan's Kidney
Pills to other sufferers"

Quite Sufficient.

A child-loving man was on his way
to Denver to transact some i'm
portant business. During the after
noon he noticed, in the opposite Sec
ton of the Pullman sWeet-faced,
tired-appearing woman, travelling
with four small childred. Feeling
sorry for the mother he soon made
friends with the little ones.
Early the next morning he heard
their eager questions behind the cur
tains of the berths, ard the patient
eyes, dear,n OF the mother as she
tried to dress them, and lookingout,
he saw small white foot pertruding
beyond the opposite curtain. Reach
ing across the aisle be took ho:d cf

To the Editor of the Sunday News:
I am writing to emphasize the fact
that the farmers of the whole country,
and South Carolina in particular, owe
to Congressman Lever for bis efforts in
having potash salts put on the free list
debt of gratitude which they should
endeavor to pay byevery means in their
power; not only by personal express
sions of their appreciations, but by
giving him continued support when
he asks for it. Putting potash on the
free list will save to this State alone
not less than s25O.000 to s300,o00 per
year, or $4,000, 900 in ten years, and
this enormous saving to the farmers
has been secured by the splendid ef-
forts of Mr.. Lever almost alone. 1
cast no reflections on our other Con-
gressmen; no doubt they helped him
much. but Mr.. Levers winning per-
sonalities and his evident high pur-
poses win for him especially an earn

makes for the use of the spare time of
its citizens.
The erection Of modern Y. NJ. G. A.
building is a strong indication that the
life of the city is developing in right
directions. When a community pauses
to consider the intellectual, physical,
spiritual and social needs of it's young
men, and makes such excellent provis
ion as FL Paso has for the attainment
of right ideals along these lines, the
claim that this is a materialistic age is
disproved by substantial evidence in
| brick and mortar.
Honolulu has long since passed from
the bread land butter securing stage. The
great interest number Of the leading
men of the city are taking in the Sc
curing of new building for the asso-
citation shows that the type of social
life In Honolulu is high, and enthusiasm
for the project and general confidence
in its success shows that each citizen
has confidence that his fellow is as good
as he and VIII rise to the occasion.
When the plan is presented at the
great dinner at the Young Hotel Mon
day night, and the real need of the
building demonstrated, Honolulu s bust
ness men viii probably unite, as they
have never united before, to bring
about the success of this movement.

The accompanying picture of the 7,

association members want in Honolulu.
The first impression given by it is that
Of a large, comfortable club, and on
stepping inside into the attractive lobby
the first impression is strengthened, ac-
cording to one who has been there.
The Honolulu building, according to
the desires of those promoting it,
should stand in the heart of the city
as the social home of the city's young
men, the place to which they go for
recreation, instruction, physical exer-
else and the enjoyment of general good
fellowship.
The erection of this building in FL
Paso marked the transition of that city
from border town to one of the most
progressive cities in the West. After

struggle for existence, the nature of
its life is indicated by the provision it

NATURES REMEDIES FOR
DISEASE.

Nature provides more effective rem
elies in the roots and herbs of the
field than were ever produced from
drugs.
Thirty years ago, Lydia E. Pinkham
of Lynn, Mass, discovered and gave
to the women of the world remedy
made from roots and herbs, which
has proved most efficaclous in curing
women's diseases than any other med
icine the world has ever known, and
today Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is looked upon everywhere
as the standard remedy for woman 5

year. He thought that, in the case of
the telephone company, with all OF the
work which is contemplated, the charg
ing of the fifty cent fee right through
might work hardship. After the ini-
tial work has been done, he thought
that the company might reasonably be
expected to pay the regular fee the
same as any other party or corporation
wishing to tear up the streets.
Considerable time was spent fighting
over that question, and finally Super
visor Quinn suggested that the county
might, without sacrificing anything,
waive all fees for inspection from the
telephone company, in consideration OF
the fact that the company agrees to
lay conduit at cost for the county in
all of the new underground lines which
it may from time to time install.

Aylett took exception to this sug-
gestion, and brought in the Organic
Act to show that class legislation

the exrepresentative argued and dis

close attention, and familiarized him.

At the close of the discussion, Quinn
suggested that the committee might

a report. Aylett objected very siren
uously, and finally the time for prepar-
ing the report was set for this after
noon at one o'clock.
Kane Favors Plan.

expressed himself as favoring the

permitting the holding of superior

the attention of the Chewelah Re-

"The logical solution of this
problem, applicable. of course, to
Stevens county only, is the con-

How strangely remarkable that

are now being viewed by the great
mass of citizens from Maine to

Miniature Production of Stevens County

II. ". Sparks, who will have
charge of the Stevens county ex-
hibit at the Alaska Iukon-P Pacific
exposition, met with the Northport
Board of Trade Monday night,
when the matter of preparing ex-
hbits was gone into in detail. Mr..
Sparks proposed novel idea for
displaying the topography of Stew
ems county by arranging model
profile done in clay and showing
the rivers, lakes, mountains, val
legs, towns and highways as true to
life as it is possible for artists to
execute on the space assigned for
this purpose. This model map of
the county will command one full
side of the booth, which is 20 feet
in length. The whole will have
the true coloring of nature, green
valleys. timbered mountains or
ehards, farms and cattle on the
hillsides and valleys will appear
realistic, making a novel, entertain
ing advertisement for the county
and its many resources.
The principal towns Of the county
will be represented on the map as
best suits the purpose of the COM
munity in general. and at the
meeting of Monday night it was
agreed to adopt and arrange a
miniature smelter to represent
Northport--Northport Repuhli-
can
