Warning to Railroad Men.

Look out for severe and even dang
e-ous kidney and bladder trouble re-
sulting from years of railroading. Geo.
E. Bell, 639 Third St., Fort Wayne,
Ind, was many years a conductor on
the Nickel Plate. He says: Twenty
years of railroading left my kidneys
in terrible condition. There was a
continual pain across my back and
hips and my kidneys gave me much
distress, and the action of my bladder
was frequent and most painful. / got
supply of Foley Kidney Pills and
the first bottle made wonderful i'm
provement and four bottles cured me
completely. Since being cured ]
have recommended Foley Kidney
Pills to many of my railroad friends :
Burnaugh & Mayfield.

cause he has not money enough to
organize big meetings and get up bar
becues. II the Judge will make in
quiry, he will find that these great
Democratic gatherings are organized
by the Democracies of the various
counties who are bearing the expense
themselves. There is no good reason
however. why he should not take some
of the $4,000 which he and his as
sociates on the ticket contributed to
their campaign fund and give a bar
barbecue with it If he wants to. AS
a practical politician. perhaps the
Judge knows a surer way to get a run

Our Duty to the Living.

How often we see the living sighted
and neglected, through a long. hard
life never cheered by one word OF
praise or caress no longer hearing
OF needing, then the words. caresses
and tears are not stinted, which dur
ing life would have been a welcome,
helping them over many rough places.
People kiss the dead who never kiss
the living They hover over open cof-
fins with hysterical sobs, but fail TO
throw their arms about their loved
ones who are fighting the stern bat
ties Of life. A word OF cheer to the
living. to a struggling soul in life is
worth all the roses of Christendom
piled high on casket covers. The
dead cannot smell the flowers. but
the living can. Scatter them broad
cast in their pathway. therefore and
pick out the thorns before It is TOO
late.
When IL is too late how many una
valling regrets II would save us to
know that while they were with us we
had loved them well. and did not fail
to let them know how very dear they
were to us.
1t isn't the thing you do, dear;
It's the thing you've left undone,
Which gives you a bit of heart ache
At the setting of the sun;
The tender word forgotten.
The letter you did not write.
The flowers you might have sent,
dear.

when the work is quite distinct. for
children who have naturally weak
eyes the distance many times is so
great that the air waves coming be
tween the poor. tired eyes and the
board causes the lines to wayer and
flicker. and especially Is this the case
when the light is poor and the yenti-
lation bad. Anything put on the
board for the children TO see, whether
old or young. should have large pro-
portion and broad. clear lines through
out. so no extra efforts will have to
be made 10 discover IL. There is a
great difference In eyes; one child
will readily see what another could
not without the fatal strain.

Master. brother Fred J. Drexler. one

brother II. A. Tyler. one Of the most

ly glad to have these distinguished
brethren with us and it gave US much
pleasure to escort them through our
Home.
Brother Tyler was so favorably i'm
pressed with our Institution that i'm
mediately after he returned home he
decided to completely furnish a large
dormitory on the boys side Of the
building. This will add greatly to
the appearance of our Home and is
a kindness that we highly appreciate.

A Little Frier dIy Advice.

There are several "dont's" which
should be observed whenever two or
more women are gathered together,
but which. alas. are frequently disre-
garded. For instance, don't say to a
friend How stout you are growing.
No lady likes to be told that she is
growing or is growing stout. II it is
fact she is doubtless quite well
aware OF Il and anxious TO keep 9th
ers from discovering IL. Don't say
How well you are looking" It is bet
ter to make no remark on the per
sonal appearance of your friend
Don't tell a friend who has par
ticularly becoming gown or bonnet
that she looks ten years younger in
that than in anything you have ever
seen her wear. Don't tell her, either,
that is the most becoming thing on
have ever seen her wear. This is an
Impeachment Of her taste heretofore,
though you probably have no such
thoughts.

Children Eyes.

Allow ms TO say n few words In re-

ago. when the children studied their
lessons from their books. We did not
hear very much about their eyes Civ

Many children when first looking
at the board do not see much OF any
thing but by looking very sharp for
few seconds the lines reveal them
selves. This. my friends. means strain
