land, Wis, says: 81 suffered from pains
in my left hip and thought it was due to
rheumatism. In few weeks | began 10
have awful pains in the small of my
back which often extended into my limbs.
At night suffered most, couldn t
turn over in bed without great misery
and got up in the morning hardly able
TO move. Doctors said had lumbago,
but felt certain it was due to disord-
cred kidneys. doctored and tried eve
rything and while got better for a
time, it was not long before | was as bad
as before, began taking Doan s Kid
ney Pills, and four boxes cured me. "
Statement gwen Aug 5O,19i0.
Cure proves permanent.
Over three years later. Mrs. Budka,
said: my former endorsement of
Doan's Kidney Pills still holds good.
This medicine cured me and | haven't

CHARM OF ODD NUMBERS.
Ancient Superstition That Lineers In
Present Day Customs.

FFSbENk gay
Odd numbers have always and ev-
erywhere been held in peculiar rever-
ence, and if that is mere superstition,
then il only proves that, despite our
civilization, we are still superstitiOus.
A hen is always given an odd num-
Der OF eggs to be Matched. Why?
There Is no reason at all except SUI
perstitiOn. Statutes from warships,
forts, etc, are always given in odd
numbers, yet no valid reason can be
adduced. 1t is a remnant Of the old
@odd numbers are lucky" superstition.
Virgil records all sorts of charms and
spells practiced round odd numbers
never even ones. And we still. after
two failures, make another attempt
and murmur hopefully, Third time
lucky" The odd number again, and
the old superstition!
Seven is the favorite Biblical num-
Der, and old diyines taught that it
held a mystical perfection. It's an odd
number. Three is the number of the
Trinity-an odd number again.
FalstafY, in the Merry Wives" is en-
trapped for the third time He himself
said, They say there is a divinity In
odd numbers" because of the old be-
lief that the odd time would be lucky.

sisted that "bleedings" should be In

COUGH THE RIGHT WAY.
II 10 Safer For Yourself, Your Lungs
and Those About You.


The following directions as to how
TO cough are given by DR.. A. A.
Pleyte In the Journal Of the Outdoor
Life:
Fold your handkerchief so that it is
about five inches square. Place 1t fiat
in the right hand. If you are right
handed, and with this hand hold 1t
tigtly over the mouth. Press the hand
on the mouth, as to hold 1t loosely over
the mouth win not accomplish the pur-
pose. Now, instead Of coughing and
trying to mufiie the sound In your
throat or mouth, mufile 1t with your
handkerchief. Practice 1t until per
son ten feet away cannot hear you.
The sound made In coughing is due
partly to air passing over the vocal
cords, partly to air going through the
bronchial tubes and trachea and part
~ 10 the resonance produced In the
chambers above the traChea. This
sound can be almost wholly avoided
and the irritation to the lungs and air
passages prevented by keeping the air
passages open and letting your hand
kerchief do the mufiling. Now. instead
OF eXpelling 10 cubic inches of air at
each expiration. you will eXpel small
er amount with more comfort to your
self aud 10 those around you and with
much less harm to your lungs.
