Inc Englishman, as everyone knows is inclined to be individual and Independent. if not exclusive. He is happy with his family in his country mansion, where high hedge insures secIusion, and permits only the chim- heys of his house to be seen from the road He does not crave excite ment and conviyiality, He prefers the quiet and peace of the semi-rural su- hurb to the whirI of the city.

Here's one of Walter Kelly's dog stories. Walter doesn't youch for it. but il comes from friend of his, so s probably all right, says the Cleve- laud Plain Dealer.
 II seems that Kelly left town on a business trip some time ago. and left ais blue-ribbon dogs in the care of man who was supposed to know all about dogs. In about week this man wrote that one of the dogs had devel. oped symptoms that indicated mango. and asked for instructions. Kelly wired as follows:
 Isolate dog at once Take no chances of mange spreading"
 Sufficient instructions, and within the ten-word limit. When the owner got back home he asked the guardian If the dog had really developed mange The man looked surprised and answer ed
 Why, no-I isolated him right away like you said But don't worry; It didn't hurt him none. done it with chloroform an he never knowed what happened

STOPPED TRAFFIC FOR PUSSY
Business on New York Thoroushfare Interrupted While Mother Cat
 Crosses the Street

It was a busy day in Fulton street. Lines of trucks were bucking each oth- CT east and west, when out from a produce store came a cat, and dang ling from her mouth was a kitten, with which she essayed to cross the street. Each time she started she had to turn back because of a truck, and her efforts soon attracted crowd of idlers.
 Down from the corner came a pc liceman. He soon saw what was the matter, and while there was nothing in the traffic regulations to cover the point, it took the bluecoat only a mo ment to decide what to do.
 Going into the street he raised his hands in the way that truckmen have learned means Stop" They stopped The cat, seeing her opportunity. took a firmer hold on the nape of her prod igy, and then, holding it high to keep its curved tail out of the mud, she slowly and deliberately picked her way across and disappeared in a cellar.

STOP EATING MEAT IF
 KIDNEYS OR BACK HURT
Take Glass of Salts to Clean Kid neys If Bladder Bothers You
 Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says well-known authority, because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backacbe and misery in the kidney region; rheu- matic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir- ritation.
 The moment your back hurts or kid neys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kid neys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralze the acids in the urine so 1t no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.
 lad Salts cannot injure anyone; makes delightful effervescent lithia- water drink which millions of men and women take now and then to keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

SHE GAVE UP
 ALL HER WORK
On Account of Her Weakness, But Cardui, the Woman's Tonic,
 Brought Back Strength.

Summit, Va.-Mrs. Leonora Walker, of this place, has the following to say regarding her experience with Cardui, the womans tonic: Before I began to take Cardui l suffered with woman ly troubles. and, also, with what I thought was stomach trouble. l was so weak, I had to give up all my housework; and could not do any of the cooking
 l commenced taking Cardui, the womans tonic. and after the third day l began to feel better Have now used five bottles, and am well, and can do all of my housework and cook ing by myself. In fact, I feel like a new woman.
 shall be only too glad to do any thing l can. to help praise the Cardui Home Treatment, for it is so good for suffering women. I shall never be without it."
 For over half a century. Cardui has been helping to build weak, nervous, tired-out women, back to strength and health. It goes to the seat of the trou- ble and builds up womanly strength where it is most needed.
 Cardui may be the very medicine your system has long been needing. Get bottle from your druggist today. It cannot harm you. and should surely do for you what it has done for so many thousands of others
