The Game of Bridge; How to Play It.

The Game of Bridge; How to Play It..
1t is a brave girl. says the Meridian
Dispatch, who accepts an invitation to
bridge to learn the game. She will
learn-how rude those whom she
counted her dearest friends can be
when you make them lose a rubber.
If you are weak on your game, do
not apologize. 1t is fatal, and means
you will be insufferably bored with
advice by people who play no better
than YOU do.
Quoting Elwell: Asking your part
ners, Why did you really play that
card?' and patronizing opponents mas

ing , ank bridgite.
ASK an unbiased and truthful friend
whe her you have card sense? If the
answer be mo" then play ball, play
the races, play anything but bridge
if you would keep the respect of
friends.
Forget all the things you have
been taught on deliberation. Mos
bridgites can more easily forgive a
rank player than slow one.
A few pointers-Do not indulge In
postmortems after each hand. They
convince nobody, bore everybody and
waste valuable tine when you Nigh

Try to remember you are lady
even though you are playing bridge
1t pays in the long run to keep smil-

Gone Home.
Morton Enterprise.

Morton Enterprise.
Clarence Otto Ahrens passed quiet
ly away at his home on the farm
near Beaver Falls, Friday morning
at o'clock, Aug. 18th, 1909. The
deceased was son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred. Ahrens. He was born Dec.
22d, 1895, in the township Of Beaver
Falls and passed his life on the farm
where he was born. Clarence was
stricken very suddenly with appen-
dicitis, being sick only four days.
All that skill and loving friends
could do to save him was done, but
without avail. His life, though
short, was not lived in vain, he was
always found to possess a cheerful,
sacrificing disposition. He was dear
ly loved by all who knew him. 1t is
truly a sad surprise to all his asso-
ciates but also a great consolation
to know he was always upright and
just and his life work was well done.
He leaves to mourn his loss, a loving
father, mother, three sisters and
seven brothers. Funeral services
were held at the M. E. church in
Beaver Falls, Sunday, August 10Th,
at 3 p. M, Rev. W. E. Young offici-
ating. Mr.. Young gave one of the
most effective sermons that has been
heard at Beaver for years. A house
full even to standing room, and the
profusion of floral decorations given
by loving friends testified to the
esteem in which he was held in the
community. Interment was made
in Beaver Falls cemetery, all of the
family were present. A large pro-
cession of "A teams followed his re-
mains to its final resting place. The
undertaken in charge of the remains
was Mr.. Bell of Redwood Falls.
The singing under the manage
ment of Mr.. and Mrs. George Zum-
Wrinkle was nicely rendered and very
appropriate for the occasion.
The heartfelt sympathy of the
community goes out to his sorrow

sisters,

of the late George Monro Grant, the
eminent Canadian educator and clergy
man.
Toward the end Of Sir John Macdon-
AIDS life he and Principal Grant, then
the head of Queens college, met at a
dinner at the house of the premier's
brother-in-law, Professor Williamson.
How l wish,' the premier said to
the principal, that you would be a
steady friend of mine"

replied, 81 have always supported you

HANDICAPPED
This is The Case with Many Redwood
Falls People.

Too many Redwood Falls citizens
are handicapped with a bad back.
The unceasing pain causes constant
misery, making work a burden and
STOPPING or lifting an impossibility.
The back aches at night, preventing
refreshing rest and in the morning
is stiff and lame. PIasters and lini-
ments may give relief but cannot
reach the cause. To eliminate the
pains and aches you must cure the
kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kid
neys and cure them permanently.
A. j. Rutter, retired, living in
Pipestone, Mimi, says: For about
twenty years | suffered from blad-
der trouble. | was obliged to arise
many times during the night on &C.
count of the too frequent action of
the kidney secretions, and this
caused me to lose much sleep. | be-
came weak, my back ached severely
and | was in almost constant misery.
| finally learned Of Doan's Kidney
Pills and procured a box. After
using this remedy a few days in
accordance with the directions there
was a great Improvement in my
condition. | continued with Doan's
Kidney Pills and now feel better
than | have in years | now enjoy
a full nights sleep, and my kineys
are in healthy condition. | gladly

The Greatest Wealth.

Is there any compensation in money
for a starved, stunted, dwarfed mind
Can lands and houses, stocks and
bonds, pay man for living narrow,
rutty, sordid life? How much money
would match the wealth of a trained
mind, Of unfolded possibilities? Is the
capacity for the appreciation Of the
meaning of life, of the lessons Of civil
lization, worth no more than ones
bread and butter and roof? Can any
one conceive of greater possessions
than an intellect well trained and dis
ciplined, than a broad, deep, full orbed
mind responsive to all beauty, all
good? -Orison SWEET Marden in Sue
