~, MRS. EVA LEONARD.
MARJORY AND NELL DISCUSS
EVENTS IN JAYNEs HOME.

Good morning. Mrs. Gerard. Have
you seen the paper?" Nell Morton
waved the sheet in her hand as she
entered the door.
mo. what Is the excitement" asked
Marjory,
Perhaps 1t will not be a surprise to
you, but no one else suspected 1t. Look
here!" She pointed to a paragraph as
she passed the paper over to Marjory.
Nell watched Marjory as she read
Of the departure Of clyde Jaynes for
the east to bring home his wife.
did you know that he YVES mar
ried?" asked Nell.
Not till day or two ago. Mr..
Jaynes told Tom when he left. You
know they are working in the office
together. and l suppose he thought il
only a courtesy to give him advance
information. In fact l think the faith
er himself did not know about It until
recently"
One Of those clandestine marri-
ages that SO many college students get
into. suppose. What a pity that they
cannot see what a mistake 1t Is to
take the most important step in life
secretly and in haste" Nell was again
looking at the paper.
Did you suspect anything of the
kind when he was sick at your
house?" she asked, for Marjory asid
nothing.
i found a picture OF a very attract
I've girl on the floor. II had dropped
out Of his coat pocket when l moved
it, l suppose. l put it back in the
pocket and said nothing. But thought
at the time that 1t must be q serious
case"
What did the girl look Iike?" asked
Nell.
She was not beauty, but sweet
and winning. l felt that l should like
her. Marjory was determined that
the coming of the little wife should be
as pleasant as she could make 1t.
"Oh, how / hope he will make her
happy" said Nell sincerely. If only
he will settle down and make a man
Of himself. Mother Morton has taken
quite fancy to him. She insists
there is more to him than people here
think. You know he never liked the
town and took no pains to be pleasant
to the people here. wonder where
they will live. The paper speaks as IL
they would live here, but l cannot
think that is So"
THAT is the plan now. Clyde is to
learn the business and go into the
business. He has been working hard
for a month or more and Tom says
he seems interested
Good. I am glad to hear that. That
will please Mother Morton. She said
there was the making of a man in
MIN II he could only get walked up.
This marriage will please her. She said
a wife would straighten him out If she
was the right kind

RHEUMATISM IS TORTURE
A. Many . Boise Reader Knows Only

Many pains that pass as rheumatism
are really due to weak kidneys-to the
failure Of the kidneys to drive off uric
acid thoroughly. When you suffer
achy. bad joints. backache too, dizzi-
ness and some kidney and bladder dis
turbances. get Doan's Kidney Pills, the
medicine that is publicly recommend
ed by over 10000 people in many DIFF
ferent lands. Doan's Kidney Pills
help weak kidneys to drive out uric
acid. which is often the cause Of the
backache. rheumatism and lumbago
Boise people have learned their worth.
Read this Boise residents experience.
Mrs. J. Moore, 323 Broadway, Boise,
says: Il suffered a great deal from
rheumatic pains for years and got
worse all the time. My feet and limbs
swelled, my Joints ached and I became
stiff. My kidneys were irregular In
action and I felt miserable. Doan's
Kidney Pills gave me great relief from
the rheumatic pains and in q short
time regulated the action of my kid.

woman, that will be a trial" Marjory
did not reply.
The paper also says that Miss Aug
usta Jaynes has gone east to make an
extended visit She laughed musical
ly.
Perhaps 1t would be as veil to get
acquainted with the family in sections"
was Marjory's rejoinder. There Is
one thing, she will have a genuine
father in that fine old man. l am
greatly attached to him. You see
got very we'll acquainted with him,
while Clyde was at our house. I saw
him every day."

In her case" Nell rose to 20.
No. indeed. | hope the cottage will
be built near us so we can be neigh

That sounds as il you meant to like
her. So do l. Is it not fine to have
it so springlike." Maljory followed her
to the door.

begged Il do enjoy having you SO
much"

cARELEssNEss CAUSES FIRES.
The fire loss in the United States /

The fire loss in the United States is
about $250,000 a day, or an aggregate
Of $3.50, 900, 900 a year. Careful obser-
walton from detailed statistics compiled
on the subject shows that most of this
loss would be prevented by the obser-
walton Of reasonable precautions. par
ticularly in the direction of more tidi-
ness. Sixty-five per cent of all fires
take place in homes, and cases show
that 30 per cent Of all fires are due to
carelessness. ignorance or both. The
IS per cent occurring in homes, II Is
readily shown, would never occur II
persons had taken reasonable care in
respect to untidiness. Rubbish is the
chief cause, and rubbish does not ne
cessarily mean the accumulation OF
paper and things of that character in
and around buildings. but the unne-
cessary accumulation OF old furniture.
magazines. carpets, supplies Of all
kinds In cellars and attics which ac-
cumulate dust and lie there for years.
What applies to the home in respect
TO rubbish Is true to a marked degree
in many business premises. Just a
little thought and the expenditure Of
q little time along these lines generally
would greatly reduce the fire loss. The
absence OF fire extinguishers In the av-
erage home or business premises is a
serious omission. Careless handling Of

entity conversant with this condition,

housing. II 1t is refused they go where
they can get 1t. Tho workers OF MANY
OF the southern mills live in tenements
