A Good Reason
Tacoma People Can Tell You Why
lit Is So.

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the
cause of disease, and that is why
the cures are always lasting. This
remedy strengthens and tones up
the kidneys, helping them to drive
out of the body the liquid poisons
that cause backache, headache and
distressing kidney and urinary
complaints. Tacoma people testi-
y to permanent cures.
Peter Jacquot, $40 S. Thirteenth
street, Tacoma, Wash, says: Il

Editor Times: Last evening l
went to Auburn to hear Mr.. Poin-
dexter. He certainly made an
able address, although he did not
tell anything that was not true,
and that all that have taken an
interest in political things admit
as facts. He promised the people
of Washington that If elected he
would continue to use his best
efforts to improve conditions.
1t is strange that people forget
some things pertaining to politics
so soon. Only a year ago the
whole people, democrats and re-
publicans alike, were finding fault
with Mr.. Cannon's way of doing
business; but now the friends of
Burke and Wilson are trying to
persuade the people to ignore the
efforts of those that made it pos
sible for the people Through
their representatives, to even be
heard in their own behalf.

be idle in school, and fail in their
lessons, when the little bees
worked SO hard all day long.
The children went back to their
seats and began to study so hard,
and were just as quiet and busy
as could be.
Then, how do you suppose that
lazy little bee felt? Why, it was
just as ashamed as could be, and
it started right in and worked so
hard that, before night, 1t had
gathered just as much honey as
any of the other little bees.

My husband is a very devoted and

But, just one thing is wrong, he
always wants to go out-and alone
He has no bad hibits, the only
place he goes is uptown or to

be proud of his wife and baby (25
months old and not be so selfish

At looks to me as If your
husband is above the average.
None can be perfect, you know.
Your place is certainly at home

unless you have a capable person
to stay with it-for it is a posi-
tive cruelty to the little folks to
take them out at that time.
wonder If you make home just as
pleasant place for your husband
as lies in your power. Do you?
Or do you perhaps nag him just a
little about this so-called selfish
ness?" If so. stop it-or you
are sure to lose his love. The man
who finds greater peace, comfort
and happiness in his own house
than anywhere else, is not apt to
stray very far.

NEW YORK, July 2S.-Henry

Potatoes may be baked on a gas
jet, thus saving much gas when
there is no further use for the
oven. A clean asbestos mat
should be placed over the jet, and
the potatoes laid on the top. An
iron saucepan can then be re-
versed over them, forming a Dutch
oven. The gas must be carefully
regulated so as to guard against
burning the potatoes. They
should be turned when done on
one side.
