Many Washburn People Know the
Importance of Healthey Kidneys.
The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day.
Well kidneys remove impurities.
Weak kidneys allow impurities to
multiply.
No kidney i'll should be neglected.
There is possible danger in delay.
If you have backache or urinary
troubles,
If you are nervous dizzy or worn
out,
Begin treating your kidneys at
once.
Use proven kidney remedy.
None endorsed like Doan' Kidney
Pills.
Recommended by thousands.
Proved by Washburn testimony.
Mrs. ]. E. Westgate, Washburn,
says: "Doan's Kidney Pills were
used with success in our family for
a dull pain the back that made every
move very painful. Doan's Kidney
Pills also corrected a disordere6
condition of the kidney secretions
and restored the kidneys to nor
NAL condition. We have also given
this medicine to the children and it
was the only remedy that did any
good"

The Committee of the County
Board of Supervisors on the County
Fair held meeting in this city with
the executive officers of the fair on
Monday afternoon, and unanimously
decided in favor OF putting in con.
crete floor in the main exhibit
building. a concrete alley in the new
live stock building, and concrete
foundation under the latter build
ing. The main exhibit hall is with
out a floor and therefore great
deal of complaint has been heard
from exhibitors that articles they
placed on exhibition were practically
ruined by dust which was stirred
up from the earth during the fair;
and too. the visitors found the air
in the building so laden with dust
that they felt much relief when they
got in the open air. It is no little
expense to lay floor in building
of that size, but the committee took
the view that the improvement is a
permanent and necessary one.
The laying of a concrete founda-
tion under the new stock barn, is,
of course, quite necessary for a.
building of its size and permanent
character.

A Curious Land Of Fire and Ice, of Vol
canoes and Glaciers.

A Curious Land Of Fire and Ice, of Vol
canoes and Glaciers.
Iceland is known as ''land of con-
comparatively small compass fire and
ice, volcanoes, glaciers and geysers.
There is magnificent scenery in its
desolate plateaus. 1t has more than
/ 100 volcanoes. of which the largest is
Hecla, 500 feet high. There are thou
sands of scraters In Iceland, the chief
among them being Askya, with an area
of thirty-four square miles.
Of glaciers there are more than 12O.
with aggregate areas of about $500
square miles. The largest is Vatna.
I Not far from Hecla is the so called
hot springs. The Great Geyser is six
ty feet in diameter. One geyser was
found to have water at temperature
of 262 degrees F., which makes it pos
sibly the hottest spring In the world
One eighth of Iceland is glacier hid
domes, of which the highest is Oraeta
jokull, 6,424 feet.
There are not many settlements in
Iceland. The capital is Reykiavik
with population of 116O0 and after
, that the two chief towns are Akureyi
s2.OS9. and Isaaord, 1859 inhabitants
The people of Iceland are described as
unusually intelligent, and one author
ity states that perhaps in no other
country of Europe are so many books
in proportion to the population printed
and sold as in Iceland

1t Leads the Reader Into Quaint and
Delightful ByWays.
Reading biography will furnish you

hand biography legitimately treats of
the foibles, the fashions and the pc
culiarities of the age with which it
deals, says Youths. Companion. His
tory, although it may have its lighter
moments, is essentially sober, but bi-
ography, although it is never merely
farcical or satirical, may touch yiyidly
upon the lighter phases Of life, and
take you, as it were, into quaint and
delightful byways, through private
parks and into remote and lovely
fields.
Indeed" wrote Boswell in his in.
PRODUCTION to his famous biography, Il
cannot conceive more perfect mode
Of writing any mans life than by not
only relating the most important events
of it In their order, but by interweav
ing what he privately wrote and said
and thought, by which mankind are
enabled, as it were, to see him live
and to live DER each scene with him
as he actually advanced through the
several stages of his life"

To lay down ones life for one s
friend is an easy heroism compared
with the sacrifice which inspires this
story. Varge takes the guilt of a man
he does not love. on his shoulders. WHY
does he do it9 Everybody believes him
innocent, even the judge and the jury
who condemn him on the strength of
his own confession. Despite his repeat
ed assertions of guilt the rumor of his
innocence pervades the penitentiary
He endures his punishment stolidlv un
til love enters his cell. Then he breaks
jail and-well it all ends happily. This
is a story of surprising interest-it
grips you, enthralls you, holds YOU
spelbound. But why did Varge do it?
All is explained in Frank l.. Packard S
novel story entitled. "Great Love
Hath No Man. which will be seen at
the Isis on January o0-21st as it was
