Fear Of Premature Burial.

The fear of premature burial, which
prompted the late Lord Burton to di-
rect by his will that his heart should
be removed from his body, has caused
many well-known men and women to
order a surgical operation to be per-
formed upon their bodies. Harriet
Martineau left her doctor SO to am
putate her head, and Lady Burton d.
rected that her heart should be
pierced with a needle The late Ed
mund Yates left instructions that his
jugular vein should be severed, with
a provision that a fee of 20 guineas
should be paid for the purpose. Lit
erary persons appear to have been
particularly afraid of premature
burial Bishop Berkeley, Lord Lyt-
ton, Hans Andersen and Wilkie Col.
Inns all took measures to protect
themselves from it.

TO KILLING WOMEN.
A Little Sound Advice Will Help
Many a Sufferer in Paris.

No woman can be healthy and well
if the kidneys are sick. Poisons that
pass off in the secretions when the kid
neys are well, are retained in the body
when the kidneys are sick. Kidneys
and bladder become infamed and
swollen and worse troubles quickly
follow. This is often the true cause
of bearing down pains, lameness, back
ache, sideache, etc. Uric poisoning also
causes headaches, dizzy spells, Ian
guor, nervousness and rheumatic pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney
Pills, "a remedy that cures sick kidneys.
You will get better as the kidneys get
better, and health will return when
the kidneys are we'll. Let a Paris
woman tell you about Doan's Kidney
Pills.
Mrs. j. W. Huffman, lis N. Main
street, Paris, KY, says: 81 gladly
corroborate the statement | gave in
1905 in which | said that | had used
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Viii
sons drug store, and had received
satisfactory results. | suffered from
piercing pains across by back and
through MY kidneys and at times / was
so miserable that | was unable to at
tend to my work. Headaches and
dizzy spells also added to my discom-
fort. Doan's Kidney Pills removed all
these troubles and have never had a
return attack.

Men ''y;~sss, intoxicated" and con-
scious of lingering thirst will ask
for another drink at their peril if the
Pennsylvania legislature passes a bill
introduced by Representative NJ. Wat
son, Of Indiana county Mr.. Watson
would make the price of that partic-
1lar drink, or even the request there
of, So to $40. 1t is unlawful now for
a saloonkeeper to sell to man wis
IDLY intoxicated" or to an habitual
drunkard or minor, but the preesnt
law imposes all responsibility upon the
salOonkeeper to determine the mans
condition. Representative Watson
would shift some of the responsibility
on the man with the thirst; also up
on the. habitual drunhard and the
minor who would ask the saloon
keeper to violate tie law His bill
proposes a fne of from IS to $40 for
each attempt to get drink under
the circumstances.

ENGLAND Losing Population.

The increasing exodus of emigrants
is alarming England. Mr.. Ellis Barker
in the Nineteenth Century points out
that the chief cause of emigration is
unemployment and iil-paid employ
ment Lately emigration has been
increasing at an alarming rate The
net total, 71.1S8 in 1900, rose to 139, 365
in 1905 and 237 ,204 in 1907. Nations
which choose to rely for their food on
foreign countries, and which cannot
export a sufficient quantity of manu-
features to pay for them, have to ex-
port men. Men are the largest of our
invisible exports

Parts and Signs Of Goodness.

If man be gracious and courteous
to strangers it shows he is a citizen
of the world and that his heart is no
island cut off from other lands, but
a continent that joins them. If he be
compassionate toward the Affections
oE others it shows that his heart is
like a noble tree that is wounded
itself when it gives the balm. If he
easily pardons and RENTS offenses it
shows that his roind is planted above
injuries. so that he cannot be shot.
If he be thankful for small benefits
it shows that he weighs mems minds
and not their trash. But, above all,
if he have st. Paurs perfection, that
he could wish to be an aDathema
from Christ for the salvation of his
brethren, it shows much of divine
nature and kind of conformity with
Christ himself.-Bacon.

Tax on Tea Defeated.

After defeating Senator Tillman' S
amendment for a tax Of ten cents a
pound on tea by a vote of IL to 55,
thus concluding the schedules of the
tariff bill, the Senate took up the in.
come and corporation tax questions.
Senator Aldrich said he would support
the corporation tax amendmenht as a
means of defeating the income tax,
expressing the opinion that the tax
would be repealed after two years or
the rate materially lowered. The
Democrats held that this position was
a subterfuge on MIR. Alrdich's part to
destroy the income tax.

Hollands Wav.

In Holland there are few able-bod-
led paupers. There is a tract Of pub
lie land containing 5000 acres, which
is divided into six model farms, and
to one of these is sent the poor per-
son applying for public relief. If he
voluntarily serves until he learns ag-
riculture he is allowed to rent "a small
farm for himself and be what is called
a free farmer. Every pauper who is
thus reclaimed to honest regular in
dustry is so much gain to the state.
There is also a forced labor colony,
where beggars and Migrants are sent
and made to do farm and other work,
whether they like it or not.

There are too many acting on the theory that salvation $ free We are willing to pay liberally to the man who eX- pounds Blackstone. and to the man who prescribes to our physical needs. but for the man who labors for the salvation of our own souls and for the qualification of the Master, We have only mere pit tanee. and that given grudginly. It may be argued that Christ wasn t paid for his preaching. but it must be remembered that Christ didn t have any house rent to pay or a family to feed, cfothe and educate.

IS IT TRUE"

press dispatch from an Okla homa town a few days ago conveyed the information that the pastor of one of the churches at that place had resigned from the ministry to accept a position as street railway conductor. The minister gives the following as his reasons for the change:
 II don't believe minister of the gospel can lead an honest life now adays The public never sees be hind the screen of the pastors life or 1t might realize trials and griefs which the pastor and his wife are forced to bear A minister wife cannot even make pretense of dressing ordinarily we'll. or people will think they are paying the pas tor too much, or that he oughtt to save part Of his salary and give ii to missions He cannot put on a pair of patent leather shoes with out every person who has contrib uted the smallest mite toward his salary looking at them as if to say: I helped pay for those shoes, there's where our money goes No, sir. don't believe s minister can live a really honest life .
 While Tile News is not prepared to say that this minister was justi- fled in forsaking his calling for the in all his statements, still there is no denying the fact that there is considerable truth in what he says and it brings attention to q condi tion that is worthy of serious thought. Ne believe it Is generally accepted as fact that ministers as a class, are the poorest paid people on earth, taking into consideration the importance of their calling
 young man in preparing himself for the ministry must Of necessity acquire literary education above the ordinary. to be followed by three CT four years course at some theological school Almost invari- ably when he gets through school he is without any means whatever. and in many cases absolutely ill debt He must of necessity. there fore, begin his work at once. and if he cant find church that is will ing to pay him Sf200 or $500 per year he takes one at $500 On this sum he is expected to clothe and feed. not only himself, but often times a wife and children We presume that preacher does not differ from the ordinary run of men and children dressed as we'll as the wives and children of other men in the community. If he does this on the meagre salary doied out to him, instead of being denominated genius, he is frequently confront ed with just such condition as ItdI tO iIitil lDlS 1hl ster calls attention. On the oth- CT hand, if the minister and his family do not dress in keeping with his surroundings, there are always those in his congregation ready to critieise and call them taeky and uncouth. In the face of all these things the minister is expected to always be i'll a good humor, visit the sick and comfort the afflicted, and assist his flock generally in Tightening their burdens. although his heart may be sore and tired witl his own burdens The minister labors on. wearing his life away, unable to accumulate anything for himself in old age or for the sup port of his family in case of his death.

TWO ESTATES

Governor Johnson left an estate valued at $3z430,
 E. H. Hartman left an estate so large that it's value has not been determined. but it is anywhere from sloo,ooo,ooo to $2oo,ooo, 900.
 To Hartman the Johnson for tune would hardly have been more than pin money for his wife, but to Johnson it was sufficient
 Johnson accumulated esteem and good will, whereas Hartman accumulated gold and the fears of his competitors.
 Who shall say that Governor Johnson, dying while nation look ed on i'll loving prayerfulness that he might be spared for yet higher honors, was not happier in review ing his career than was Hartman, the human money machine, grind ing at the mint until the Death Angel laid his icy hand upon his brow. while nation looked on and wondered what effect his death would have on the money market.
 The people loved John Johnson for his manhood, they feared Har- while, at the same time, not with holding from him the praise due any splendid piece of machinery for performing well it's appointed function.
 The fact that Johnson's fortune was so small, comparatively, was in itself a proof of his integrity he was not to be purchased by 1ucre or perverted by pelf or power.
 While admitting that Hartman VAS a great financial genera. there must always be feeling that such vast aeeamulations of wealth do net represent the most honest en- deagor L. k. Democrat
