Nature and the Artist.

And when the evening mist clothes
the riverside with poetry. as with a
veil. and the poor buildings lose them
selves in the dim sky. and the tall
chimneys become campanili. and the
warehouses are palaces in the night.
and the whole city hangs in the heav-
ems, and fairyland is before us. then
the %wayfarer hastens home. The work
ingman and the cultured one. the wise
man and the one of pleasure. cease to
understand. as they have ceased to
see. and nature. who. for once. has
sung in tune. sings her exquisite song
to the artist alone, her son and her
master-her son in that he loves her,
her master in that he knows her.

A BIT OF ADVICE
First-Don't Delay. Second-Don't
Experiment.

If you suffer from backache head
aches or dizzy spells; if you rest poor
ly and are languid in the morning; if
the kidney %secretions are irregular
and unnatural in appearance, do not
delay. In such cases the kidneys of
ten need help.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
prepared for kidney trouble-they are
recommended by thousands. Can res
idents desire more convincing proof
than the statement of a citizen of this
locality?
Mrs. William Doughty, 700 Mulber-
ry St., Millville, N. j., says: ~ had
a severe pain in my back and over my
kidneys. | took Doan's Kidney Pills
and in a short time was relieved Of
the trouble. | am today free from
kidney disease. Another of my fami-
ly had been troubled by kidney COM
plant. The kidneys were weak and
caused annoyance. Doan's Kidney
Pills were used and made a great i'm
provement."

simply ask for a kidney remedy-get

English as She Is spoke.p

Writing in the Autocar, an English
publication, an English motorist seri-
ously advises his kind who contem-
plate visiting America to provide
themselves with dictionaries so that
they may be able to understand the
natives.
AS instances of outre A-mericanisms.
he cites hat Americans say they want
to examine the gasoline line" when
they mean the petrol tank" When
we complain that the car ''only hits
on three we imply that it is possible
only to make it fire on three cylin
ders." We further confuse this critic
when we say hood" instead of bon
net"
"Mudguardsn should be called 'scut-
tie dashes," and to use cement in
stead of tyre solution" is also wrong.
