MASTER AND MAID. BY Mrs. i. Allen
Harker. l2mo, PIP. 3l5. Charles Scrib-
ners Sons.
Most of the way. nearly all Of it, this
book reads like another of those stories
appealing to both young and old which
Mrs. Harker has the knack Of turning
out. Then, for no discernible reason eX-
cept Il resrettable lapse Of Judgment,
she introduces an episode that makes
the tale impossible as reading matter
for "older girls" and places it entirely
i'm the category Of fiction for groWn-ups,
to whom, Notwithstanding its fragile
charm. il will prove somewhat inslpid.
Charming Irish Laliie. who has been
sadded without ceremony by her ire
sponsible father upon a bachelor friend
of his while he is away shooting in
India; Lallie, who has bewtched the
teachers of the English college of which
that friend is head master, and all its
pupils as well: Lallie VINO has done many
unconventional things in the sweetest,
most natural manner imaginable, includ-
ing the singing of The Wearing of the
Green" at a Primrose League netting
Lallie receives an offer Of marriage, and
Immediately afterward visit from "A
married woman. VINO explains in the
frankest possible way why she should
not marry the man. The course OF
events before and after this episode Is
in no way affected by it; Lallie, who re-
minds one pleasantly of the Duchess ;
Irish girls, proceeds all unconsclously
toward the fate which the discerning
reader foresees the moment he has fin
ished the first chapter.

The Praise That Comes from Thankful
Barre People.
One kidney remedy never fails.
Barre people rely upon it.
That remedy is Doan's Kidney Pills.
Barre testimony proves it always re-
liable.
Mrs. Frank Jones, 100 south Main
street, Barre. Vt, says: About five
years ego, when living in Worcester, !
began to suffer from kidney trouble and
had such terrible pains in my
back at times that could
hardly get about If arose
too quickly after STOPPING, sharp twinges
darted through my hips and often had
severe attacks OF dizziness. 1t
was impossible for me to sleep well, and
during the day | felt tired and worn
out. Being advised to try Doan's Kidney
Pills, did so, although | had not much
faith in them. After using them
few days, / found that they we're
helping me, and / continued taking them
until Che pains in my back had entirely
disappeared The other symptoms of my
trouble were also greatly relieved and
| felt better in every way"
The above statement was given by
Mrs. Jones on November 10, 1905, and
on October |, 1908, Mrs. Jones added
the following: 81 still keep Doan's Kid
ney pills in the house and use them
when in need Of a kidney remedy, al
ways with the best of results. / am glad
to re-endorse Doan's Kidney Pills, in
return for what they have done for me. !"
