WORDS FROM HOME.


When a Madison citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence
Home endorsement is tire kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such
testimony is convincing. Inyestiga-
ton proves 1t true. Below Is a state
ment of a Madison resident. No
stronger proof of merit can be had.
William Morgan, 900 Center street
w, Madison, says: II suffered from
weakness of the kidneys and bladder.
The kidney secretions were highly
colored, too frequent in passage and
contained sediment. | used Doan's
Kidney Pills and they made me much
better in every way"

LACE GROWS ON TREES.
Panama Product May Take Place Of
Mosquito Netting.

New Orleans. La.-Lace grows on
trees on the isthmus of Panama. and
the trees grow wild In the swamps.
Captain l.. w. Richards OF the steam.
ship Norwalk brought a fine sample,
not merely rs a curiosity. but to induce
tests as to the probable utility OF the
plant or the tree In this section.
When the bark OF the limbs In strip
ped there are rolls of flmy substance
OF a texture very much like mosquito
netting. The size of these layers in
creases with the size of the tree. the
largest being about n foot In diameter.
The fabric is strong and can be sewn
without tearing.
The natives use the stun In making
garments. Captain Richards believes
that by cultivation the trees may be-
come very valuable, and IL the lace
layers canno be enlarged some process
may be perfected by which they can be
Joined into a fabric which will make
the finest mosquito bar and may even
serve for summer raiment.

President Wilson is i'm
pE0red to send home the Ore

despite the fact Mexican af-
fairs are generally admitted to
be in a more or less turbulent

for the United States to keep
some forces on the scene.

about the senate's action is
that it occurs in a state that

THE UPPER CRUST DOES
NOT WEIGH MUCH

01 NUSUAL prosperity has
VI brought on an era of per-
sonal extravaganza in
many parts of the country. In
New York this winter, accord
ing TO numerous reports a per-
feet orgy Of money spending is
underway. The situation is
causing some fearful ones to
worry lest national decadence
has set in.
OF course it is a useless
alarm. Society does not con-
Sist in The main Of senseless
rich or senseless poor. Ninety
nine per cent of the people are
neither crazy with wealth nor
crazy with poverty. In a COM
ment upon this topic the San
Francisco Bulletin says:
uppsF-Tust life in New york seems
IN hr one long Russian ballet. But
shtz does not imply any real decad.
