the slope Of the valley, the song Of the
birds. the sunsets, cannot be shut up
within the title deed; they belong to
the eye that can carry them away, the
mind that can appreciate them. :
This ability to gather enjoyment
from all sorts of sources is divine

is dissatisfied; he is rich who is con.
tented with what he has" and can en-
Joy what others own.
Some people are SO mean and stingy'
SO uncharitable and narrow, so big
oted and suspicious, that they never
open their natures wide enough to
take in the riches all about them, the
beauty with which they come In con-
tact. They are so jealous and envious
and small. that they are afraid to
throw open the doors OF their hearts.
The result is. their lives are pinched
and starved. A person must be mag
unanimous and large-hearted. to be able
to absorb the wealth and beauty that
are worth while.

joyed more than any rich man l know
Of, simply because early in life he
learned to enjoy things without own
ing them to such an extent that he
never seemed to have the slightest
envy or jealousy in connection with
the property Of others, but rather
showed gratitude to those who owned
them. He was such sweet soul that
all doors were open to him, because
he radiated sunshine and good cheer.
It does not matter how poor or how
unfortunate you are, you can enjoy
without the trouble Of owning or car

dollars worth of works OF art, and
things Of rarest beauty, almost as well
as though they were your own. Think
what It costs to maintain our great
city parks, with all their wonders Of
beauty and comfort. the palatial pub

tiful private grounds and gardens and
objects Of beauty everywhere which
you can enjoy without money-and yet
you may say you own nothing. He
has missed the finest lesson of expert
ence who has not learned how to en-
Joy without owning.

Thin Blood Causes Backache

Every muscle in the body needs a
supply of rich. red blood in proportion
to the work 1t does.
The muscles of the back are under
heavy strain and have but little rest.
When the blood is thin they lack nour-
ishment and rebel. The result is a
sensation of pain in those muscles.
The best medical authorities agree
that backache seldom or never means
kidney trouble Real organic kidney
disease may have progressed to a
critical point without developing a
pain in the back. Doctors detect its
presence by the excretions of the kid
neys themselves.
Pains in the back should always
lead the sufferer to look 70 the condi-
tion of the blood. 1t will be found in
most cases. that the use of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills to build UP the blood
will stop the grumbling of the Ill
nourished muscles of the back. How
much better it is to try DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for the blood than to give
way to unreasonable alarm about your
kidneys. If you suspect your kidneys
any doctor can make tests in ten min
utes that will set your fears at rest or
tell you the worst.
All druggists sell Dr. Williams Pink
Pills. A free book, Building Up the
Blood" will be sent on request by the
