HAPPY. RESULTS
Have Made Many Marietta
Residents Enthu siastic.

No wonder scores of Marietta citi-
zens grow enthusiastic. 1t is enough
to make anyone to find relief after
years of suffering. Public statements
like the following are but truthful
representations of the daily work done
in Marietta by Doan's Kidney Pills.
J. E. Medley, 927 Roswell ST., Mari
eta, Ca, says: Having known of
Doan's Kidney Pills for a long while
and having used them in my own home
with excellent success, I feel justified
in recommending them to other kid
ney sufferers. A member of my fami-
ly had symptoms of kidney complaint
and knowing that Doan's Kidney Pills
were thoroughly reliable, I obtained
supply. The results of their use were
gratifying, as they relieved the diff
culties quickly and permanently"

Half the Vienna dogs arc terriers.
The fox terrier Is a particular favor4te.
The necessity Of the dogs being fre-
Quently washed has led to the estAb-
nshment in Vienna OF dogs public
baths" which are to be seen in all
parts Of the city. One would think
tAat, dogs being 50 popular in Vienna,
they would be everywhere tolerated,
but such is not the case. "Dogs not
admitted" Is the rule at every restau-
rant and cafe. while the trans and
omnibuses are also forbidden ground,

Pearly teeth are not the fashion ev-
erywhere. Firms Of artificial teeth
manufacturers who have an export
trade have to keep in stock molars OF
every shade Of color, from white to
black. There Is a steady demand for
black teeth in Siam, lava. Batavia and
Burma. where the natives chew the
betel nut, which blackens the teeth.
For Persia the teeth must be absO-
lutely milk white. Recently an order
was received from Bhavnagar, in In

icial teeth. Smokers teeth are Fegu-

The King James Version.

Entirely apart from its religious sig
nifcance, the celebration at the Albert
Hall in London of the tercentenary of the
publication of the translation of the Holy
Bible known as the King James version
recognizes the Introduction of an element
in the literature of English-spea peo-
pies which has been manifest through
the centuries and is today controlling.
President Taft, in his message of con-
graduation puts 1t admirably. Our
laws" he says, "our literature and our
social life owe whatever excellence they
possess largely to the influence OF this,
our chief classic, acknowledged as such
equally on both sides of the sea-"
In whatever way. with whatever diff
fering shades OF Interpretation, this
translation may be. construed, 1t stands
a monument of purity, directness beauty
in the English language. Its fundamental
rules for the conduct of life and the re-
lations of men to each other have been
accepted as controlling the progress Of
civilization, however widely creeds may
vary as to the particular definition OF its
doctrines.
Men may interpret the words OF the
Gospel as their intelligent consciences
lead them, and they cannot honestly go
wrong. And in their speech and writings
the more nearly they conform to the
clear simple, direct style of this classic
production of three centuries ago, the
purer will be their utterance OF their ma
tive tongue,-[Boston Post.

called on friends here this week.
Mr.. and Mrs Sidney H. Barrett of
Waterford, Conn, were recent guests at
w. B. Leonard's.

being employed.

ter will teach the former and Mrs. Abbie
Adams, an experienced teacher, will have
charge Of the latter.
Everything considered, the poverty ball
recently held here was surely success.
Although the attendance was smaller
than at some former dances, 1t can
safely be said that a more jolly and well
satisfied company has seldom been seen
here. To describe the various costumes
would be hardly possible, but certainly If
patches indicate poverty. the scheme was
well carried out. Quilt blocks, ticking,
tobacco bags. cotton cloth, sacking, hand
kerchiefs and all kinds of dress goods
were used in this line, style as well as
quality being displayed in the make-ups,
Some regrets were expressed that more of
the out of town guests did not costume
themselves for the occasion. Miss Lena

An Offer That Involves No Risk for Those
Who Accept It,

Wo are so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation. no matter
how chronic 1t may be, that we offer to
furnish 1t free OF all cost If it fails.

them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies

candy, and are particularly ideal for
children. They act directly on the nerves
and muscles of the bowels. They have a
neutral action on the other organs or

any inconvenience whatever. They will
positively overcome chronic or habitual
constipation and the myriads of associate
or dependent chronic ailments. Try
Rexall Orderlies at our risk. Two sizes,
