WHEN BUSTING.

Don't use a feather buster except
fer pictures, as it simply moves the
dust from one place to another.
The best plan is to have at hand
bowl of clean cold water; wiring a
cloth out of this as dry as possible,
and use it to remove the dust. Then
quickly polish with a clean, dry
duster. If allowed to dry before rub
bling the furniture will look smeary.
Books should be busted at least
once a fortnight. A dry buster must
be used for this, as damp one
might cause mildew, If the bindings
have become mildewed, try rubbing
them with a very little ammonia.
They should be rubbed dry with a
clean buster Immediately afterward.-

WOMEN'S WOES,
Last.

1t does seem that women have more
than fair share of the aches and
pains that afflict humanity; they must
keep up" must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must stoop over, when to
stoop means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches from kidney ills.
Kidneys cause more suffering than
any other organ of the body. Keep
the kidneys we'll and health is easily
maintained. Read of a remedy for
kidneys only that helps and cures the
kidneys and is endorsed by people you
know.
Mrs. William Northam, 407 S. Wash
ington St., Deniosn, Iowa, says: "My
back was so lame that could hardly
stoop and when did manage to do so,
sharp twinges darted through my
loins. My husband finally procured
Doan's Kidney Pills for me from the
Lamborn Drug Co., and upon using
them, soon received relief. l can
say that Doan's Kidney Pills are
specific for kidney trouble"

No More Of the Mat
for Him.
HE is GOING TO SETTLE DOWN
The Champion Wrestler, Having Ac
quired an independence, Quits
While Credit is Good.

Frank Gotch has retired. More than
this, he will stay retired and after q
year or so of idleness will not come
out and attempt to defend his old title
of worlds champion catch-as-catch-car
wrestler against any of the foreign in
vaders. Gotch, over his own signature
imparts this information to Ed. w
Smith Of the Chicago American in q
letter. The letter is written from his
home in Humboldt, Iowa. The wonder
full Iowa product is astonished at the
interest that the country is taking in
his future, but expresses qualification
at it. However, that isn't going to
make any, difference to him. He hints
at marriage during the coming win
ter and then the final settling down to
the hum-drum of caring for his prop
erty and investments. This, in part, is
what the champion says:
ut is mighty fine to hear through
you that everybody is interested in
me, but have to smile when l read
that most of the fans think am only
kidding and that will change my
mind about wrestling again as soon as
some Of the big purses and offers are
flashed in front of me.
"But 1 want to make it plain to you,
at least, and you in turn can impart it
to others if you wish, that l never was
more earnest in my life, and that
nothing will induce me to get back in
to the game. 1t is not exactly a ques-
tion OF age, for I feel that l could stay
as good as was last spring for sever
al years yet.
1T is the terrible grind of training
that has caused me to retire and will
keep me retired. like the excitement
of the matches themselves, as you say
but the business of getting into shape,
the dreary hours of grinding away on
the road and in gymnasium sickened
me long ago.
Eyes. will admit that money has as
much to do with retirement as it had
to do with making me a champion. Il
have Move than enough to provide
for anything that may happen to me,
and for that reason l am quitting. If
I needed the money might keep on.
You know am "a years old and want
leisure now, in word. I've been at
it so long am track sore. Therefore,
! am bidding everybody goodbye.
"As for. the championship, have no
opinion to express. gave them all a
chance to land me and don't believe
now that any of them could or would
give me any kind of a match. Let them
fight it out among themselves. I'll be
nothing but spectator hereafter. But
in closing want to say that l have
sentiment enough left, after years Of
grueliing in the game. to hope that
America will soon produce a man cap
able of dumping all these foreigners
that are coming over."-Carroll Her.

GREEN BEER
BE ABBERS!

There is at least one bar in
town today that is reminding
the thirsty that it is the Siven-
teenth Of March, God Rist His
Sowl.
This First avenue bar has
been dispensing green beer all
day and though several pa
triotic Irishmen have fingered
long at the tap to prevent any
A. p. A. visitors imbibing the
sacred fluid, the supply is still
holding out strong.
1t is a regular beer, appar-
emily it has not been colored
locally, it tastes like beer and
looks like paint, or rather like
the deep green waves in mid
ocean with the sun striking
them through.
Nobody but the bartender
knows how it happened, and he
won't tell, but all day he has
been drawing from one Of the
regular faucets green beer, and
nobody has seen him dump In
any arsenic, though he has had
to tap several Hiberian kegs
during the rush.
