P0NDEROUS WORK OF u, :

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 21.-Pon.
derous governmental machinery stoc
stock still today while a thirteen-year-
old girl stood before a group of digni-
fed generals and tearfully pleaded for
the life of little yellow dog.
She was Esther Smiley, of Maryland
sister of Private Peter Smiley, a re-
cruit in the United States marine

arms had been Peters playmate since
youth.

less you send him on to my brother -

And wonder of wonders, the digni-

preclude the embalming of Rover in
the red tape of officialdom, gave the
necessary instructions, and within an
hour the faithful playmate of Private
Peter Smiley was Grated up ready Off

Kidney Pills. Now A. C. Alexander
grocer, of 712 Spring St., confirms the
former statement-says there has
been no return of the trouble. Can
Americas people ask for more con-
vincing testimony?
Mr. Alexander says: my back
caused me much suffering and was
hardly able to perform my duties on
account of the pains. The action of
my kidneys was very irregular and
too frequent. causing me to get up a
number of times at night. Doan's
Kidney Pills soon relieved me of tho
pain in my back and the action of my
kidneys became regular. The pains
left and have never felt them since"
Statement given March IS, 1910.
A Permanent Cure.

Rev. ]. S. Kirtley, d. D., a noted
Chicago speaker, preached before a
large sized congregation at the Central
Baptist church or Sunday evening.
Sunday was a red letter day for the
Central Baptist church, for in addi-
ton to having the unusual privilege of
hearing DR.. Kirtley at the evening SER
vice the congregation heard DR.. E. j.
Cummings of Burma, who spoke at the
morning service.
Listening to God was the topic upon
which Rev. DIR. Kirtley spoke and he
took his text from Samuel $40: Speak,
for thy servant heareth. God was
talking to a boy of IL, and the boy was
listening, said Rev. DR.. Kirtley. How
God was speaking to him is a matter
of interest. Whether he addressed the
inner ear so distinctly and compelling
ly that the boy could enter into COM
munion with God or addressed him by
words through the outer ear we cannot
tell What God said was of critical
importance to the boy right then and
during his whole life, to old Eli, the
priest, and to his whole family, to the
whole nation of Israel and even to us
at this distant day.
In what a variety of ways was God
supporting His approach to Samuel!
God was in nature and God was in the
history of Samuers people. Surrender
to God in that interview meant three
! things to Samuel. 1t meant a sense
! of Gods wishes. 1t meant an acute

that his queen and Mordecai, who once
had saved the kings life, were Jews.
The king then discovered the con-
spiracy and had Hannah killed.
The cast was as follows: Ahsauerus,
king OF Persia, Samuel Wax; Esther.

SERY.US MINCE MEAT

Package condensed mince meat is
made up today OF the best quality OF
dried fruit and other items which can
be found, all OF which are found in
the United States with the exception
OF spices and CuTrants. The study of
packing Condensed mince meat has ex-
tended over a period OF 100 years and
today is as near its perfection as we
can possibly conceive. The sanitation
m the factories in which IL is packed
is beyond reprOach as the competition
today in these lines neCessitates the
guarding OF the most minute detail OF
the business. The apples used are Of
the best grade OF New York State,
where in our opinion is grown the
best favored apple known. The
raisins used are Of the best quality
seeded variety. No expense is con-
sidered in procuring the very highest
grade OF spices. and sugar. as we all
know. is always sugar. the different
grades merely representing the differ
ent hayOrs or different granulation re-
quircd for different purposes Every
particle Of fruit or any other article
used in the manufacture OF mince meat
is thoroughly cleaned and hand-picked
BY people trained TO know what should
and should not be used and in this
manner the article comes to the house
wife cleaner by far than she could
possibly take the same articles in her
own kitchen. regardless OF how clean
IL may be. and make up the filler for
her mlICe PIE. Inc Dlu lued OF dirt
being prevalent in quantity is today
disputed by the greatest authorities on
food products. The meat used in
mlnce meat is OF the choicest and to-
day The same Corn-heef which you
and / would use on our table Is what
Is being used in Serv-us Mince Neat.
There are very few pies made which
can be used as handily by the house
wife as miuce meat FOR all il requires
l. a little water and being heated for
ten minutes and IL Is ready for the
crust and then the table and she may
without fear of loss carry three or
four packages Of mince meat in her
pantry. having IL ready at any time
for the chance occurrence OF uneNpecr
cd company an il will be a good
dessert free from dirt. Il is our
thorough belief that a mirce meat pie
made from condensed mince meat is
about as cheap a dessert as can be
prepared and yet as good.
For many years mince meat was
| considered 4 winter dish. Each year
/ for the last ten our factory has had
| to increase its capacity during the
/ summer months until today IL runs
| every day of the year with a regular
| force OF helpers. We ship goods to
| every part OF the country the entire
/ year. This Of course means a great
/ increase in the use OF these goods over
/ when mince meat was eaten only IN
| the winter months which means an in
| creased sale over the former winter
consumption.
