of the total, which is something like
100 acres. The deal has not been
closed up but gossip has 1t that the
price has been agreed upon.

That the soldiers Of the First regi-
ment are a Jolly lot and take things
pretty philosophically was demonstrate
ed last evening on the Monongahela
Valley Traction company interurban
which left Clarksburg at $3.50. Because
Of the electrical and wind storm the
power lines were IN a terrible condi.
ton and the interurban was forced
to crawl along for few miles and
then stop.
On the car were a number of First
regiment boys and also a sour faced
gentleman who evidently had suffer
ed for years from dyspepsia. Pretty
soon the sour faced man began to fume
and fret and swear and fuss around.
BY 1880 the gentleman's disposition
was so savage that he was calling
on the passengers to witness the hor'
rlble state Of affairs and asking their
sympathy and commiseration.
Then the soldiers, who had been
taking the affair as lark, started
panning him. The remainder of the
passengers were tickled to death to
share in the discontinue Of the poor
stranger and roars Of laughter greeted
every sally the soldiers made. To
make things more interesting to the
stranded passengers, the gentleman
with the hanging lower lip got madden
and madden and had the bad judgment
to start talking back.
Everybody had such merry time
with the poor disgruntled gentleman
that no one noticed that 1t was 9:15
when the car got to Fairmont.

Whats The Reason?
Many Canaan People Poor in Health Without Knowing the
 Cause.

There are scores of people who drag out miserable existence without reali- zing the cause of their suffering. Day after day they are racked with back ache and headache; suffer from ner- vousness, dizziness, weakness, languor and depression. Perhaps the kidney have fallen behind in their work of Altering the blood and that may be the root of the trouble. Look to your kid neys, assist them in their work-give them the help they need. You can use no more highly recommended remedy than Doan's Kidney Pills-endorsed by people all over the country and by your neighbors in Canaan.
 Mrs. L. Wick wire, Railroad St., Ca- naan says: "We have used Doan's Kid. ney Pills in our family for the past two years and they have always helped us wonderfully from the first time we took them. At one time. I had terrible bachaches, but Doan's Kidney Pills quickly relieved me. Now, once in awhile. I catch cold in my back, but take few doses of Doan's Kideny Pills with excellent results".
