the business which still bears his name

is now conducted solely by his son. AS
a real estate broker Mr. Fox engineered
some of the large property deals during
the seven years in which he was most
actively engaged In the business.
When the Columbia National Bank was
formed Mr. Fox was one of its chief
promoters and he was elected president
OF that institution in June, 1897. AS a
inaneier Mr. Fox brought to bear upon
the management of the bank the same
careful policy which had marked his
operations in real estate. and the hank
has been a great success throughout its
history. Though sixty-fve years Of age,
Mr.. Fox IS an active, energetic man and
has the appearance Of a man much
younger. lie is daily at his bank i'm

brunt Of the hard work about the insti-

Mr.. Fox is also president of the Ma

and is affiliated with other financial in

After school days young Fox entered

In my last letter on the ''south's indif-

was made apparent that forest conserva-

States must enlist not only the willing
ness OF the owners OF this area, but must
have as well the aid and cooperation of

As was pointed out. the south contains
over 2OO, 100000 acres of forest lands all
privately owned, Much. if not most. of
this area Is primarily forest land on which
only forests can proitably grow, and-get
this point in mind-when once the forest
IS removed. is vaIueless for agriculture or
anything else
Bear in mind, too, that this vast area
IS being cut at rate that means its total
exhaustion as a source Of timber supply
in fifteen 10 twenty years.
Disregarding at this time any rights of
the States TO prevent their own deyas-
tation, let US briefly comment on some
State duties owed TO itself and to its cIti-
zenship-duties that are plain and unmis-
taxable. and that cannot be evaded except
at grave cost to the future prosperity of
the State.
The State must help the forest owner:
Il must demonstrate by means Of State
owned forests under competent foresters
that tree growing is a sane and profitable
thing land 1t can be so shown, 1t must
help to cut down the enormous fire loss

the whole State adequately enforced

Must Tax Timber Land.
II must properly tax timber lands. not
as is now done by imposing a tax on
standing timber. but by imposing a tax
only on the land values, the timber there

cut (this Is in strict accord with ad-
Eanced thinking that growing timber

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.

Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us Strong
and Healthy,
ALI the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
OF impure matter daily, when un-
healthy some part of this impure
matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and
symptoms-pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheuma-
tism, govt, gravel, disorders of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness,
irregular heart, debility, drowsiness,
dropsy; deposits in the urine, etc.
Bnt if you keep the filters right you
will have no trouble with your
kidneys.
Thomas Post, Main street, Prince
ton, MIMI, says: my back was
very lame and I was annoyed by a
too frequent desire to pass the kidney
secretions. Doan's Kidney Pills gave
me relief from these symptoms of kid
ney complaint and greatly strength
ened my back. feel justified in rec
