Peevish Children
Suffer With Worms

Don't be angry with your child be-
cause he or she is continually irritable.
In ninety-nine out of one hundred
cases you will find that the trouble
is worms.
Among the common symptoms of the
presence of round worms are nervous
ness,-which often leads to epilepti-
form attacks; -dizZiness, vertigo, cap
ricians appetite, restless sleep, itching
o. the eyes and nose, nausea and often
hysteria. Round worms are several
inches N length and infest the
stomach. Occasionally several hun
Lred are found in single person
Thread worms are smaller, often not
l'nger than quarter of an inch.
The symptoms denoting their presence
ire about the same, but in this case
the child has no appetite.
Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge is unsur-
passed in removing worms. Not only
will it destroy them, but its tonic
effects will restore the stomach to
healthy activity. AS Jayne's Tonic
Vermifuge seldom purges, the in6i-
cations of its beneficial effects, will
be the improved conditions of the
person usiEg it.
Millions of parents have praised
this medicine for more than eighty
years. Insist upon Jayne's Tonic Vor.

TOO MANY PUR-
PoSELEss LIVES.

Orison SWEET Marden: 1t Is aston
ishing how many people there are who
have no definite aim or ambition, but
just exsist from one day to another
with no wedd defined life plan. All
about us on the ocean of life we sec
young men and women aimlessIy drift
ing without rudder or port, throwing
away time, without serious purpose or
method in anything they do. They
simply drift with the tide. If you ask
one of them what he is going to do,
what his ambition is, he will tell you
he does not exactly know yet what he
will do. He is simply waiting for a
chance to a k up something.
How can a man who lives without a
programme ever expect to arrive any
where but in chaos, confusion? 4
Clear-cut purpose has a powerful in
fuenCe upon the life. It unifes our eff
forts and gives direction to our work,
so that every blow counts.
l have never known anyone who fol-
lowed an indolent inclination ever to
amount to much. It is the ma who
struggles against the things that are
fighting with his ambition who gets
to the front.
Nc one ever amounts to much who
does not take himself in hand and
force himself to do the things that are
best for himself in the end, not the
Pleasantiest or h easiest.

Whitechapel club"
The members of the club at it's
start made a practice of collecting
relics of tragedies which they report-
ed Shortly after 1t IA reported the
Sioux war broke out. and Seymour
and others brought back from the
battles a large number Of skulls Of
Indians and drums n blankets
drenched in blood which were hung
on the walls of the club. From that
time on it became the practice Of
sher1ffs and newspaper men every
where to send anything of that kind
to the Whitechapel club. The result
was that within a few years it had
the largest collection of criminal
skulls in the country. DIR. C. Frank
Lydston afterwards wrote a book on
he skulls of criminals, using the
W~httechapel collection as the basis.
The club also had about fifty hang
mans ropes. There was in the club
d famous coffin shaped table, and
each member had a silver screw in it
bearing his number.
Admission was obtained i'm a Dec,-
liar way. An applicant for member
snip had his name proposed, and it
was then posted on a bulletin board.
He was on probation for thirty days,
during which he had to he at the
CLUB at least five days in the week in
ofder 10 become acquainted with the
members. Within that time any mem
Der could go and tear his name down,
and that ended his candidacy. When
MS name finally came up for voting
1t required the full vote of the clIn
to get him in.
The fame of the club led to its end.
Rich and important men Of Chicago
pressed for membership. Some were
admitted, then more. AS a result the
club lost its Bohemian character, and
finally disbanded.

.BACKACHE A WARNING
ALL SHOULD HEED
II is One of the First Signs of Kid
ney Troubles, If Neglected,
Serious Diseases
Follow,


No one can be well and healthy
unless the kidneys work properly and
keep the blood pure. When they be-
come clogged up and inactive, nature
has a way of warning you.
Backache is one of the first symp-
toms. You may also be troubled
with disagreeable, annoying bladder
disorders: have attacks of lumbago or
rheumatism; become nervous, tired,
and feel all worn-out; puffy sweIings
show under the ayes or In the feet
and ankles; and many other symp-
toms are noticed. II they are neg
Iected, dropsy, diabetes, or Bright's
disease, which so often prove fatal,
may result.
1t is not only dangerous, but need
less for you to suffer and endure the
new discovery, Croxone, quickly and
surely ends all such misery.
There is no more effective remedy
known for the prompt cure Of all such
troubles than this new, scientific
preparation, because It removes the
cause. 1t soaks right into the kidneys,
through the walls and Innings; cleans
out the clogged up pores; neutralizes
and ~dissolves the poisonous uric acid
and waste matter that lodge in h
joints and muscles and cause those
terrible rheumatic pains. and makes
the kidneys filter and sift the poison
out of the blood and drive it from
the system.
You will find Croxone different
from all other remedies. There is
nothing else on earth like it. 1t is
so prepared that 1t is practically i'm
possible to take it into the human
system without results.
You can secure an original pack
age of Croxone at trifling cost from
any first-class drug store. All drug
gists are authorized to personally re-
turn the purchase price If Croxone
should fail in a single ase Three
doses a day for a few days is often all
that is ever needed to cure the worst
backache, relieve rheumatic pains, or
overcome urinary disorders.-Advt.

STORY OF THE FAMOUS WHITE
CHAPEL CLUB OF CHICAGO

American Magazine: The White
chapel club Of Chicago, although
founded twenty-five years ago and
lasting only. six or seven years, still
remains in the minds of newspaper
and literary men as one of the most
remarkable of Bohemian clubs. 1t was
founded in 1887 and first had rooms
back of Henry Coster's saloon in an
alley near The Chicago News build
ing. 1t soon gathered unto itself all
the clever men of Chicago who were
writing for newspapers, n a few of
their intimate comrades in other lines
of work but of sympathetic spirit. The
membership included:
Finley Peter Dunno, who had not
as yet created Mr.. Dooley.
George AIDE, who was a reporter on
The Chicago Record, just starting his
Streets of the Town, the beginnings
of his famous Fables in Slang.
Ben King, who was writing anus
ing verses such as If / Should Die
Tonight, and Nothing to Do But
Work. They have preserved his fame,
though he died many years since.
Opie Read of the Arkansas Trav-
eler.
Alfred Henry Lewis, who was
Washington correspondent and be-
lieve, was even then writing the
Wolfville stories.
William E. Lewis, who has for some
Years been editor Of The New York
Morning Telegraph.
Frederick Upham Adams, the novel
list, who was writing President John
Smith.
Thomas E. Powers, caricaturist and
illustrator, who had not then entered
the field which has made him so we'll
known.
Horace Taylor, the artist.
Wallace Rice, reporter and poet, one
Of the most learned and scholarly
Chicago journalists.
Arthur Henry, Who has since writ
tan The House in the Woods, and
The Island Cabin.
w. A. Taylor. now editor of The
Associated Sunday Magazine.
w. w. Denslow, artist and illustra-
tor, of Wizard of Or fame.
The club was nameless at first.
But one afternoon a group were sit
ting in one of the rooms when a
boy passed through the alley and
cried: "All about the latest White
chapel murder" Seymour paused
with a stein of beer half lifted, and
said: Well call the new club the

Columbus, o.. Jan. S1.-Unshackled
and under the control of a single un-
armed guard, twenty-five convicts la
bored a busy month to build a model
brick highway just completed near the
southern boundary of Columbus.
Overjoyed to breathe the open air
and proud of the trust reposed in
them, the men worked without hint
of mutiny or attempt to escape, al
though often widely separated.
Each day an auto buss, driven by
convicts sacked up to the prison
entrance sor its load of laughing,
energetic "highwaymen." Each night

was reported for discipline. although

and two were convicted murderers.
