Soul of a Corporation

Several men we're at the O.-W. r. &
N. station one day last week. The
Pendleton express was just pulling in.
A woman rushed to the ticket window
asking if she would have time to check
her baggage before the trains depart
ure. The local agent, J. II. Fredricy,
appeared. The baggage truck, piled
high with trunks. was already down
the track, the local baggageman busy
getting luggage aboard the car. Mr.,
Fredricy reached for a hand truck,
after having checked the woman's S
trunk, loaded he piece of baggage on
1t and wheeled it away. pap" Alli-
son. one of the O.-W. r. & N. lines
most popular conductors, saw him.
Lending a hand, Mr.. Allison assisted
MIR. Fredrlcy in boosting the heavy
trunk into the baggage car. The con-
ductor then waved to the engineer to
go ahead.
Souls of corporation, said one
of the men, pointing to the agent and
conductor.
Little acts of this kind give corpor-
alton its popularity with the public.

Worse Every Year
Plenty of Hood River Readers Have
The Same Experience

Don't neglect an aching back.
1t generally gets worse every year.
To cure kidney backache you must
cure the kidneys.
Ii you don't, other kidney ills may
follow
Urinary troubles, danger OF dropsy,
gravel and Bright's disease.
Follow the advice of this Hood River
citizen.
Mrs. A. Samuel, of 1910 Seventh St.,
Hood River, says 81 was taken down with
kidney trouble and suffered for four or
five months from gravel. Backache fol-
lowed and the kidney secretions were
frequent but scanty in passage. As a
neighbor had been benefited by Doan's
Kidney Pills, gave them trial. Less
than box corrected the trouble"
Over two years later Mrs. Samuel
said: Il still have great confidence in
Doan's Kidney Pills and confirm all
| have previously aid in their praise"
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Samuel
had. Foster Milbum Co., Props, Buf-

Evening

Evening falls.
The night hawk calls,
And nature goes to rest.
The sun slips over the mountain crest
Leaving behind a red gold glow
A train of gorgeous flow.
The evening star
Comes from afar
Over yonder mountain side,
Radiant with brilliant light.
A Il other tsars now gently fade
Dim by her brightness made.
Now darkness reigns
And nature feigns
To rest in slumber deep,
While living creatures sleep.
Providing thus for man and beast
rest from toll and care at least.
But rivers flow
And flowers grow
While Gods great watchful eye
Is ever waking, ever nigh.
And sun and moon, and stars and earth
Rotate through mankind's sorrow anG
mirth.
