Nearly two hundred million dol

Many Paw Paw Citizens Have
Discovered it,
Just what TO do when the kidneys are
affected is question that concerns both
young anC old. Weak kidneys neglected
in childhood lead to lifelong suffering.
People of advanced years with less vitality
suffer doubly. In youth or age, languor,
backache, urinary irregularity, dIzzlness
and nervousness make life a burden.
There is one remedy that acts directly
on the kidneys and cures these troubles.
Doan's Kidney Pills owe their world
wide fame To- the fact that they cure
sick kidneys aud cure them permanently.

'I just won't stand this little cooped-up flat any longer"
said Agnes to herself, after her friends had departed.
SIT doesn't bother John any, so long as he has a place to eat
and sleep and smoke in the evenings. But he ought not to expect
me to put up with it all day long,
Agnes was thoroughly impatient. When they had married
in the spring the little flat had seemed cozy and snug, and both
thought they should enjoy it immensely. And besides it fitted
Johns salary which was not large.
But it's smallness soon began to wear on Agnes nerves. She
wanted more room to entertain her girl friends, and she wanted
room for her piano which was now In the store-house because there
was no place to put it in the little flat. She Just knew that her old
friends we're making fun of the little home.
She and John had talked it over before, but that night Agnes
revolted. So Sunday they studied the "For Rent ads in the Bee,
and before the end of the week John had signed the lease for a
fine little two-story house in the West Farnam street district.
1t was delightful, and Agnes enjoyed getting settled in it. The
extra furniture it required almost exhausted Johns little bank
account, but both were happy, so what was the differencei
But later came their first coal bill. 1t was enormous in their
eyes. John had to draw some of his salary In advance. And the
gas bills-how did they burn so much more gas than they used tot
They thought it over and decided that they must not buy so much
food. Theaters were out of>the question. Agnes had planned for
some new furs as winter approached, but dear me, they could not
be thought OF.
John struggled to save, bat 1t was a hard task. Christmas
was coming and both faced the necessity of giving up all pur-
chases. One night they were forced to confess that the new house
had been an extravaganza Agnes wept bitterly and took all the
blame, but John was brave and generous.
i'Never mind, little girl, +" he said, 81 will try and get some
night work to do to earn a little extra money
"Oh, why can't l earn something, (" exclaimed Agnes.
Then a thought occurred to her.
"Let me rent our front room, - she said. ave don't need it
and / would just love to have a roomer. We could get some nice
young man who wouldn't be any trouble, and it would bring in
some extra money every month"
''How could we get the right kind of mani" asked the prac-
teal John.
'why, III tell you,'' replied Agnes. eve could advertise just
what we have. There must be lots of men read the Sunday Bee,
and when they see such a'nice room to rent we would have no
~trouble''
So the next Sunday there appeared in the Bee the little ad
shown at the top of this story, and before the week was out, the
room had been rented to the incest man you ever saw.
He paid twenty dollars a month for the room, and Agnes and
John had money to spend for Christmas after all.
