TESTED AND PROVEN
There is Heap Of SoIace In Being
Able to Depend Upon Well
Earned Reputation.

For months Perrysburg readers
have seen the constant expression of
praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and
read about the good work they have
done in this locality. Not another
remedy ever produced such convinc
ing proof of merit.
Erwin Bruce, Fifth ST., Perrysburg,
o., says: "For some time was an,
noyed by attacks of pain in my back,
just over my kidneys. In the morn
ing when l arose, the trouble was
most noticeable and although / did
not consider it serious, q was very
anxious to get relief. One day l read
an account of Doan's Kidney Pills
curing similar troubles and was led
to begin using this remedy. In a few
days my complaint disappeared. l
also know of two other instances in
which Doan's Kidney Pills have
cured severe attacks of kidney troub-
le."
Mr.. Bruce gave the above statement
in July. 1906, and on May II, 1909,
he said: Il gladly confirm my form
er endorsement of Doans lidney
Pills, as time has proven my cure to
be permanent one. l now have but
little trouble from my kidneys and
any slight backache is quickly re-
moved by few doses of Doan's Kid
ney Pills"

The Work of Assembling the Frames
and Putting on Covers.

The Work of Assembling tho Frames
and Putting on Covers.
In most umbrella factories the task
of turning out ribs and stems is left to
other factories making a speciality Of
those parts. These are sent to the
manufacturer, and the man whose
work 1t is to assemble the parts in
serts bit of wire into the small holes
at the end of the ribs, draws them to-
gether about the main rod and adjusts
the ferrule.
In cutting the cloth or silk seventy
FIVE thicknesses or thereabouts are ar
ranged upon a table at which skilled
operators work. In one department
there are girls who operate hemming
machines. A thousand yards of hem
med goods is days work for one Of
these girls. The machines doing this
job attain a speed of some 5000 rev.
olutions a minute. After the hemming
has been done the cloth or silk Is cut
into triangular pieces with knife, as
before, but with pattern laid upon
the cloth. The next operation is the
sewing Of the triangular pieces to-
gether by machinery.
The covers and frames are now
ready to be brought together. In all
there are twenty-one places where the
cover is to be attached to the frame.
The handle is next glued on, and the
umbrella is ready for pressing and In
spection.
BY far the greater number Of UNI
brellas today are equipped with wood
en- handles. A large variety of mate
rials may, however. be used. Gold and
silver quite naturally enter into the
construction Of the more expensive
grades Of umbrellas.
A wooden handle may be quite ex-
pensive, though, by reason of the wood
used.-Harper's Weekly.

LEGENDS Of shadowy Craft of the New
England Coast.

Legends Of shadowy Craft of the New
England Coast.
The coast of New England has nu-
merous legends concerning specter
ships firmly believed by the rugged
fishermen, who assert stoutly that on
various occasions gllmpses of the
shadowy craft have been seen, fol-
lowed invariably by fatal disaster.
The specter of the Palentine is occa-
sionally seen on Long Island sound
and is the forerunner of gale Of
wind. She was q Dutch trading YES
sci and was wrecked Off Block island
in 1859. The wreckers, 1t is said, made
short work of her, stripping her fore
and aft and setting fire to the hull.
AS she drifted blazing off the coast a
human form was visible amid the
flames, the form of female passen-
ger, left to perish on the doomed
craft. Since and generally upon the
anniversary of the wreck phantom
ship with blazing hull, charred spars
and scorched sails and rigging has
been seen cruising Off Block island.
Whittier recorded the legend in
graceful verse as well as that of a
ghostly cruiser that sailed from a
New England port of her last voyage,
which he termed "The Dead Ship Of
Salem" In the seventeenth century a
ship was about to sail from Salem to
England. Her cargo was on board,
sails bent and passengers on deck,
when two passengers came hurriedly
of and engaged passage. The couple
were young man and young wo-
man, who, so tradition records, were
remarkable for their bearing and beau
ty.
Who they were or whence they came
no one in Salem town could tell. The
ship being detained by adverse winds,
the mysterious couple excited the sus-
picions of the townspeople, who view
ed them as uncanny and prophesied
disaster to the vessel If allowed to sail
in her. But the master, n bluff and
stern sailor, refused to listen and final
ly departed on Friday.
The vessel never reached her desti-
nation and was never spoken, but later
In the year incoming vessels reported
sighting craft with luminous rigging
and sails and shining hull and spars.
She was sailing with all canvas set
against the wind, with crew of dead
men standing in the shrouds and lean
Ing over the rail. while upon the quar-
terdeck stood young and beautiful
couple.-New York Herald.

thin unribbed sounding board and
shaky pedals; this is the commercial

great mistake has been made. Mr..

and Mrs. Syl F. Estes, celebrated their
golden wedding at their home near the
iron bridge on Broad river, in Chero-
kee county yesterday. There were
present about sixty guests, including
neighbors and friends. Your CORES
pondent and his wife had the pleasure
of being among the honored guests,
The neighbors brought in well filled
among the presents, several IS gold
pieces. The dinner which was an elab-
crate spread was much enjoyed by all
present. In the afternoon, some excel
lent music was rendered by the vet
eran violinist, Mr.. J. ]. ]. Robinson,
accompanied on the organ by his
daughter, Miss Mary Robinson. J. L.
Strain, Esq, added much to the
pleasure Of the occasion by his lively
conversation. Taken altogether, the
occasion was one long to be remember
ed by those present, many of them had
never had the pleasure Of participating
in a like occasion. A sketch of the
lives Of the couple may prove Of inter-
est. Mr.. Syl F. Estes was born within
five miles of Chester village, Aug. %,
1892, where he resided until 1850, when
the family moved to the old homestead
in Union (now Cherokee) county,
where they now reside. He was mar
ried to Miss Mary S. Bishop of Ross
vile, Chester county, Feb. IL, 1851, by
the eminent Presbyterian divine, Rev.
William Banks. Mrs. Estes is now in
her 74th year. OF this union there
were born nine children, six of whom
are living as follows: Mrs. Robert A.
Foster of this county, Mrs. Noble
Blackwell, Messrs. Thomas, John and
Terry Estes of Cherokee, and Mr..
George Estes of Brookston, Tex. There
are surviving twenty three grandchil-
dren. All of the children and most Of
the grandchildren were present except
the family of Mr.. George Estes of
Texas. During his long life. Mr.. Estes
has identified himself with the best in
terests Of his neighborhood and has
been active in church work, hav-
ing been q ruling elder in Salem Pres
byterian church for many years. He
has enjoyed robust health up to the
past few years, but now shows percep-
tibly his weight of years. Mrs. Estes,
wnlle never ROBUST, lS SIIJOyl idh
health. May they be spared many
years more to bless their children and
neighbors by the influence Of their no
BILE Christian lives.
One of the guests who attended
the marriage fifty years ago, was one
of the guests yesterday. This was Mrs.
Amanda Lee, the oldest living sister OF
the groom. Another sister Mrs. Jas. L.
Strain, who attended the reception hf-
ty years ago was also present.
Mrs. Martin of Due West was call
ed to the bedside of her daughter, Miss
Ruth Martin, whose severe illness was
mentioned last week. Miss Martin Is
now much better, and is considered out
of danger.
Miss Clara McElroy is quite sick
with grip. 1t is to be hoped that her
illness may prove to be temporary, as
the school will be greatly hindered by
the illness of both assistant teachers.
Mrs. Laura Allison Is so far improv-
ed as to be around in the room again.
