Importance of 1t?

Backache is only simple thing at
first;
But if you find 'tis from the kid
neys;
That serious kidney troubles may
follow;
That dropsy or Bright's disease
may be the fatal end
You will be glad to know the fol-
lowing experience.
'Tis the honest statement of res
ident of this locality.
n. Marchand, Warden Ave, Klam-
ath Falls, Ore, says About two
years ago | first noticed symptoms
Of kidney trouble. My back panied
me intensely and | was obliged to
arise many times at night, owing to
too frequent passages of the kidney
secretions. Often my back was so
weak that | had to quit work.
Doan's Kidney Pills were finally
brought to my attention and began
using them. They restored my kid
neys to a normal condition, stopping

BAILEY'S SWAN SONG
Texas Senator Rids Himself of Much
Spleen Before Leaving the
L. ). Senate.

Washington, Jan. 2.-Joseph w.
Bailey of Texas delivered today his
political "croak" as a member of the
United States senate before crowded
galleries. 1t wa sa bitter denuncia-
ton of the initiative and referendum
laws, which he characterized as re
pugnant to the principles upon which
the American republic is founded. +"
Bailey's formal resignation from
the senate, of which he has been a
member since 1901, will be submit
ted to the governor of Texas before
the expiration of his term on March
4. Recognizing that today's effort
probably would be the Texans last
speech before his retirement to pri-
vate life, nearly every member of the
senate was in his seat when Bailey
started speaking.
Bailey declared that the trainers
of the constitution upon which our
government is founded never con-
templated direct government main
tanning that government as outlined
by the constitution convention of
1887 was better than any initiative
and referendum laws could establish.
Apologizing for the lengthy read
ing of letters and speeches made by
delegates to the 1887 convention
which framed the constitution,
Bailey said:
II am striving to reach those out
side the senate, and as. many OF them
have been trained by the yellow jour
nails, and will doubt whatever | may
say, | feel constrained to read into
the record conclusive evidence that
with the full knowledge of the differ
ent kinds of government before
them, our fathers rejected monarchy
ari9tocracy and direct democracy
and wisely chose representative de-
mocracy."
In support of his position, Bailey
quoted freely from the writings ol

Bailey declared that the form o

that the prcsident-elect believes rep

Dear Charles Lamb"

If you in doubt as to what to buy for that
Young man this Christmas let us suggest Charles
4amb's Essays. It would be almost like giving
aim new friend as a present because to know
.amb is to love him.
Though he was born in England more than a
century and quarter ago, and his essays were
published when Andrew Jackson was President,
his books never grow old; each page is sailed
with trnelessness and insured against decay.
They up-to-date as the latest magazine ar
sicles because their appeal is never stale.
His father was bibulous and unsteady Great
IRE helpless to support the family his sister was
subject to spells of mania when incarceration in
an asylum became necessary; his brother was
selfish and early stepped from under the burden
of so helpless household leaving it to fall the
slender shoulders of his brother Charles.
How Charles quietly and uncomplainingly hid
his extraordinary literary gift under bushel,
pushed aside the call of love and the appeal of
fame, buried himself behind high dark desk in
the Temple and stayed at the dreary task until
past forty-five, how he used to forego the
companionship of such Patmore, Words
worth and Colerdge in order to entertain his
doddering old father with endless games of back
gammon-these things are as truly heroic as any
tale in Plutarch
EVERYBODY knows now he suffered, how he
went about in quaint rustic garb, every thread
bare seam of which revealed the pressure of his
circumstances how he found pleasure in drollery
and practical jokes and often was wont to crawl
in near the "wee sma' hours" somewhat smoky
and drinky, is familiar to everyone. His slight
figure, pipe-stem legs, shoulders and en-
barrassed air gave little outward promise of the
power of spirit so niggardy blessed in the ways
Of the flesh
But Charles Lamb had truly great mind. TIC
this day his penetrating studies of Shakespeare
remain unsurpassed except by Goethe and Coler-
dge and his dramatic criticisms might still serve
as models for the young twentieth century critic
But it was essayist, of course, that he
won his way to an enduring fame. When those
volumes came out written over the quaint pseu-
donym Ella containing such gems dream
Children "In Praise of Chimney Sweeps Dis
sertation on Roast Pig" "A Chapter on Ears,
and "The Decay of Beggars," the world recog-
nized the advent of one of the rarest of human
spirits. His bookishness, his tenderness, his
knack of self revelation, his sly digesssions, and
his humor which set him at the top of English
wits, have caused all his readers since to think OF
him as that dear Charles Lamb"

The Woman and the Club

No, it is not the rolling pin we have in mind,
nor the conductors baton, but the policeman's
mace. real woman carrying an unquestiona-
bly, real club in very determined hand entices
our muse, and not from the realms of fancy eth
the fields of caricature where she reigned
long, but from the flinty streets of Denver,
Chicago, Los Angeles, Kansas City, Portland
Baltimore, Rochester, Tacoma, San Antonio and
other cities too numerous to mention. These
towns actually have from to dozen women
on their police force and being we'll satisfied
with their work are determined to keep them
there.
In making recent plea for ten more women
for his police force Mayor Carter Harrison of
Chicago, who is by means soft on his senti-
mental SIDE had this to say:
There certain classes of police work that
can be performed much better by patrol-women
than by ordinary patrolmen.
I'm the supervision and care of dance halls
bathing beaches, small parks and Fairgrounds
in the performance of duties connected with the
Juvenile Court and other kindred matters, great
er care and appreciative attention to the morals
and physical requirements of girls may be ex-
pected from police-wOnen than from ordinary
policemen, who necessarily become hardened to
some extent by reason of the character of the
services they are called upon to perform"
One police-woman, Miss Josephine Roche, of
Denver, has already become known the country
over and especially since George Creel gave her
such a send-off in the Metropolitan. Miss
Roche's policy" he says, turned every proprie-
tor (of resorts saloons, etc., into an active sup
porter of the ordinance; and boys and girls under
sixteen, unless accompanied by parents, are no
longer seen in dance halls, skating Kinks, and
moving picture shows in Denver
Miss Roche's policy turned every proprietor
into an active supporter of the ordinance" We
respectfully submit that this is an achievement
Of which the burliest cop might be Justly proud
If women police are able to perform such mira
cles, welcome to EN- and may their stay be long
in the land

The Tales That Dollars Tell

Our sole appeal to advertisers is
the tales that dollars tell.
Men who judge by their likings
rarely agree, on workers or on
work.
But men who judge by results,
and who know the results, unite
in one opinion about our sales
manshlr-in-print.
1t has broken all the records of
advertising.
What else can one judge by?
Not by word-pictures, hopes,
prospects, pretensions. Dreams
rarely come true.
Not by copy, not by plans.
Minor men can make such things
alluring.
And not by men. Mediocrity
too often makes a snowy front.
Let US face the facts. The
surest way to get big things done
is to go to the men who have done
them.
