ARE YOU NERVOUS ?
Maybe There is Cause for it That
 Yon Can Correct.

Many who suffer from backache and weak kidneys are unnaturally irritable, fretful and nervous. Not only does constant backache "get on tue nerves, ; but bad kidneys fail to eliminate all the uric acid from the system, and uric acid irritates the nerves, keeping one Ion edge, '' and causing rheumatic, neuralgia pains. When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney Pills, the medicine so Well-reoom- mended by Stafford Springs people. Read this Stafford Springs resident s statement:
 Mrs. s. P. Reynolds, Benton St. }, Stafford Springs, says: "I was never without a dull, constant pain in the small of my back. It bothered me all the time and I was very nervous. If I stopped over, sharp pains seized me and it would be hard to straighten up. If I exerted myself doing any work, my back became weak and aohed. Doan's Kidney Pills were recom- mended to me and I bought some at Jaoobsen's Drug Store. The first box helped me and as I continued talk ing them, was greatly relieved ''
 Price soc, at all dealers Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney PiIls-the same that Mrs. Reynolds had. Foster Milburn Co.,. Props, Buffalo N. Y.,

Don't skate very heavily clothed, ex- eept in extremely cold weather.
 Don't skate until exhausted and over heated and then stop to rest in the cold wind; that means a bad cold. some times pneumonia.
 When an ovorcOat is found an in cumbranee wear paper or fiber vest; it will protect the back and chest from the wind
 Don't try to skate in low shoes or huttoned boots
 Don't wear extra high laced shoes and do without straps, if possible, as both hinder the freedom of the ankle and stop circulation.
 Always breathe through the nose. It may he difficult at first, but after lit- tie practice it will be easy.

Henry c. Prick on Success.

'aThe secret of my success?" said Henry c. Trick. There is no secret about success. Success simply calls for hard work, devotion to your business at all times, day and night. I was very poor, and my education was limited, but I worked very hard and always sought opportunities.
 ITO win in the battle of life a man needs, in addition to whatever ability he possesses, courage, tenacity and de- liberation. He must learn never to lose his head.
 Hut, above all, hard work is tho thing. For six years, from 1889 to 1895, when first took hold of the Car- negie steel business, did not have II days vacation. I reached the office every morning between and s and did not leave until 6. My example had an influence upon the others. Carnegie often remarked to me, You do get work out of those men, They wolked be- cause they saSy that II was then the chairman of the company worked" ."- B. c. Forbes i'll Lcslie's.

curiou. And..r k.vhoIs.

A curiosity of the Andean villages are the doors of the houses, which are hard to open and hard to close, but which, despite the intricacy of the locks, admit the air freely on all sides. Harry A. Franck describes one such door, writing in the Century Magazine of the town of San Pablo, Colombia {: '"The keyhOle was in the shape of a swan. Others in the town and all through NarinO have the form of a man, horse, goose and dozen other ludicrous shapes. These homemade doors of Andean villages never fit cas- fly, and their locks always have some peculiar idiOsyncrasy of their own, So that by the time the traveller learns to unlock the door of his lodging with out native assistance he is ready to move on."

Room For Thrift.

The American Society For Thrift is sounding a warning that should not go unheeded. The statistics it has gath cred indicate how reckless we are with our money and how little we lay up for a rainy day. We are pre-eminently a nation of spenders who believe in ltv- ing while we live.
 Statistics show that ninety-fiVe of every hundred Americans who reach the age of sixty are dependent upon their daily earnings or on others for support. The total, of course, includes wives, mothers and daughters who had not tried nor expected to accumulate competency. But after they are elim- mated the percentage of workers who have a nest egg at sixty is very small, even if that is generally considered too young for retirement.

How to Be Happy Though Married.
 Domestic happiness does not come as a matter of course. but, like everything else worth having. must be worked for.
 Don't imagine that because you have won each other you need no longer be affectionate.
 Carry over into the welded life the refinement of manner that character ized your wOoing days.
 Once in awhile let your husband have the last word. It will please him and be no loss to you.
 Husband and wife are one, but it is parody on unity if each wants to be that one.
 A, rose strewn on life's path while weary feet are painfully walking over it is more than wreaths for the dead.
 Make your home a cabinet room where all the affairs of the household and sometimes of business come under comparison and advisal.

Feeling the Moon'a PuIaa.

That the moon is not the rigid solid body that has been believed, but that it is subject to periodic pulsations, is the discovery recently set forth by the astronomer r. puiseux before the French Academy of Sciences. It would be impossible to describe here the elaborate method by which he ascer- tained this fact. Sufficient to say that his discovery is based upon study of photographs of the moon taken at the Paris observatory from 1894 to 1909.

The aMaks RsIisv.n of EIow.r,

Cyclamen like to pretend they are cross little animals with their ears laid back. or else that they are little fugi- tive maidens fleeing very fast across the meadows. with their hair blown back from their lovely faces. Their whimsical trick of play acting like this is all part of their quaint mirth. They have. of course. other attributes as well-beauty and spirituality and love. Love 1 feel with flowers particu- larly. I seem to get hold of that ex- quisite sense of the whole worlds be- ing wrapped in the essence of Gods love more often through flowers than through anything else. They are to me indescribably dear, merry little companions. My affection goes out to them constantly in a deep, happy rev erence. The reverence is not only for the lovely little things themselves, but also for the wonder that is back of them-an ecstasy of worship.-Atlan- tic.

Storage Eggs Loss Nutrf,ious.

The assertion by dealers that after all there is nothing injurious about a storage first gg-in fact, it is as good IS Il fresh egg" Is not borne out by 70 good an authority as Dr. Harvey W, Wiley, who, when questioned on the stand in Washington on the subject of eggs that had been in storage six months, said:
 '',rhc amount of nutrimcnt would probably be diminished by very con- siderable quantity. It would be just slightly less nutritious, but the princi- pal lack of nutrition, in my opinion, would be in the impaired taste; that the digestive ferments would not re- spond so promptly to the stimulus of the food. That is a very important physiological consideration - New York Telegram.

Paper For Shoes,

For shoes what will come after leather? Cloth of suitable kinds may be used, and rubber CT similar ma- terial may enter into the product, but manufacturers seem to look most hope fully upon paper as the basic sub- stance. Paper leather of attractive appearance, adapted for many pur- poses as well as the natural leather, is, in fact, said to be satisfactorily made already. Tn a German process paper of long fiber is converted into pulp, suitably colored, made flexible with glycerin and nondrying oils and waterproof with shellac solution, giv- en the grain of morocco or other leather by pressing in a matrfx and finished with lacquer.

Our Going to sc..ool Record.

The latc.t report 0f the United States bureau of education shows that one American In every four (25 per cent of the entire population of the country) is pursuing educational studies at schools of some kind or other. Germany, whose system has always been highly praised, falls below this figulc, with about 20 per cent of it's population in school. Great Britain has 19 per cent, France IT, Russia only little more than 4.
 The result is slightly less favorable to the United States if daily attendance and the actual length of schooling are taken into consideration, but it is high ly gratifying that we should lead in numbers alone.
