Can They Win
Alone?

The odds are big against your
kidneys, for alone they must face
foes like uric acid. poisonous
germs, rheumatism. dropsy,
Bright's disease and many others.
Your system has to depend on
the Kidneys to subdue these enc
mics. But. the kidneys should
be reinforced. They should be
given two allies-first. Careful
Living, and then Doan's Kidney
Pills to stimulate them in their
struggle against uric acids at
tacks. Doan's Kidney Pills ara
in successful use all over the
world. Here's a home case.

slip the dollar today to Ebert
Hubbell. Brevity may be the
soul of wit. but Ebert goes one
better and gets a laugh into both
soul and body.
Now, who wants that dollar to-
morrow? A dollar a day to the
best jitrimer-that's the agree
ment. Try 1t. Nobody barred but
Longfellow and he's dead.
Bean said, "send for a doctor,
/ quick,
For my child. Gross Earnings, is
! very sick;
For some little time he's wasted
/ away
And been getting thinner from
day to day.
I've been keeping his record on a
| sheet
And it nearly takes me off my
| feet
To see how something's been cut
! ting In
On his fragile frame like the very
sin"
So they took little Gross and put
him to bed
And sent for a doctor, as ! have
| said.
Doctor Common People came in a
bus,
And said. az. H., what's all this
| fuss?"
The latter silently led the way
To darkened room where the
patient lay,
And as he showed the wasted
frame
Said. Doc, | fear that I've been
In not calling you before today,
But thought | could help him my
self some way"
The doctor looked down with a
serious face,
Saying, "jitneyitis, a vary bad
case,
But IL you will only do as | say,
Believe we can fix him all o. X.
The method III use you may think
wild, 0sdl
For the dope goes to me, not to
the child.
And then by using strong sugges-
I'll fix whatever ails his digestion.
The prescription calls for three
ingredients r1
And must be filled with exact
obedience.
The first ones six tickets for two
bits
And will be a knockout for the
tits.
But to make it purely efficacious
We must add the other two, by
gracious.
The seconds some heat when We
ride in the morning
Or pneumonia will get us with
little warning.
The third and last I'll now relate.
And hope you will not hesitate.
That when our day of toll is o'er
And we're homeward bound to
the ones we adore
You'll give us a seat as does the
jit
And We'll rest little and feel
more fit"
And then Doc said, as he closed
h the door,
Heed my advice and he'll suffer
no more.
But IL you fail to see 1t that wav,
III give it up with no more to
say"
EBERT HUBBELL.
Sing a song of jitney buses,
Spinning ore the town;
They take you where you wish Ia
go,
H Up the hills or down.
Taxi-cabs and street cars
II May have little rest,
For of all the ways in town to
travel,
The jitney is the best.
Eany, meany, minee, mo,
Catch a "Beany" by the toe,
Make him ride iitney bus,
Then, / think you'll hear him cuss.
ELLA REEVES.
Now the T. r. & p. has a griev-
| ance you see,
And her manager nurses a frown.
For the strap-hanger's nickeIs
4 Another purse tickles.
And the jitney bus covers the
/ J. E. ROSE.
The street car ferocious used to
be,
Now the jitney has her up A

Through the streets and over the
/ bump.
1t surely makes the company
hump.
HOWARD coRBETT.
The Street Car Co.'S cry out in
| despair,
Give us. on give US, the jitney's
fare"
But the jitney laughs as it rolls
along,
And pockets the nickels from the
waiting throng.
