A CHINESE SOLOMON.
His Decision In a Case of a Woman
 With Two Husbands

His Decision In a Case of Woman
 With Two Husbands.
 There was Chinese judge named Wang who was as wise as Solomon. Before Wang two men and a woman appeared. The older man was the wo- mans first husband. He had gone to the wars and been reported dead. Now he returned alive to claim his wife. But she meanwhile had married the younger man, who refused to give her up: hence all three came before Wang that he might decide this truly difficult case.
 Yang Ki," said the judge to the wo- man, which of these two men made the better husband|
 Both were perfect husbands, my lord judge" Yang El modcstly replied.
 So the judge told the men that he would keep the woman by him for a week. examining her thoroughly, and a week hence be would decide the case. Well, the week passed, and the two luSDhANN htlAG DA~N lA'AN bNANAN the judge. He shook bis head gravely and said to them:
 "The woman, Yang Kl, has died. There is no case. Let her original hus- band take the body away from my house and pay for the burial
 "uO, not T." said the original hus- band. And. so saying, he darted from the court and was soon lost to view.
 You, then" said the judge to the other man, must stand these burial expenses"
 "Yes," the man answered, that is just and will give this woman, who was good and kind, the finest burial my purse will allow"
 The judge clappcd his hands. Yang Tli, blushing and smiling, entered the courtroom in a rich dress of gold bro- cadC.
 "Take her" said the wise judge, flor you and not the other merit her love and service"

A COMEDIANS TRICK.
Ruso by Which Ho Escaped Arrest

and Had His Debts Paid.
 Many amusing stories are told of Joe Haiues, a comedian of the time of Charles IL, sometimes called Count Haines. It Is said that he was arrest ed one morning by two bailifs for a debt of f2O, when he saw bishop to whom he was related passing along in his coach. With ready resource he i'm medlately saw a loophole for escape, and, turning to the men, he said, Let me speak to his lordship, to whom l am well known, and he will pay the debt and your charges Into the bar gain"
 The baillns thought they might ven ture this, as they were within two or three yards of the coach, and accedeG to the request Joe boldly advanced and took off his hat to the bishop. His lordshlp ordered the coach to stop, when Joe whispered to the divine that the two men were suffering from such scruples of conscience that he feared they would hang themselves, suggest Ing that his lDrdShip should invite them to his house and promise to sat isfy them. The bishop agreed, and. calling to the bailirs, he said, You two men come to me tomorrow morn ing, and I will satisfy your
 The men bowed and went away pleased, and early the next day wait ed on his lordship, who, when they were ushered in, said, well, my men, what are these scruples of con- scienceE'
 "Scruples?o replied one of them. "We have no soruples! We are bal- llGs, my lord, who yesterday arrested your cousin, Joe Haines, for q debt of E2O, and your lordship kindly promised to satisfy us"
 The trick was strange, but the re- suit was stranger, for his lordship, either approaching its cleverness or considering himself bound by the promise he had uninteuuoually given, there and then settled with the men in full

Cures tlat lest are cures that tell. To thoroughly know the virtues of 0 medicine you must investigate the cures and see if they prove perma- nent. Doan's Kidney Pills stand this test, and plenty of proof exists right here in this locality. People who test flied years ago to relief from backachG kidney and urinary disorders, now de clare that relief was permanent and the cure perfect. Can any Alaskan sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
 J. Prenatt, 311 Third Ave, N., Se- attle, Wash, says: "The relief l re. ceived from Doan's Kidney Pills over three years ago, has been permanent and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm the public statement gave in favor of the remedy at that time. For two years had attacks of backache and my kidneys were so weak that the least cold contracted settled In them making my condition worse. Deans Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the pains in nay back and regulated the passages of the kidney secretions. A the present time there is not a symp- tom of my former trouble remaining. I advise anyone afflicted with kidney complaint to give Doan's Kidney Pills trial"
