OLD-TIME RULES or ClVILITY
Undoubtedly Were Taken Seriously in
1875, but Would Seem Somewhat
Elementary Today.

There was published in 1875 a curl
Gus book called THE Rules of Civil
ity," and one of the things impressed
upon the reader is that being in dis
course with a man, it's no less than
ridiculous to pull him by the buttons,
to play with the bandstrings, belt or
cloak, or to punch him now and then
in the stomach; tbs a pleasant sight,
and well worthy of laughter to see him
that is so punched, fall back, and re-
tire, whilst the other, insensible of his
absurdity, pursues and presses him in
to some corner, where he is at last
glad to cry quarter before his comrade
perceives he is in danger" Further.
the reader is informed that sit argues
neglect, and to under-value a man, to
sleep when he is discoursing or read
ing; therefore good manners command
it to be forbid; besides, something
there may happen in the act that may
offend, as snoring, sweating, gaping or
dribbling."

Thousands upon thousands of women

Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-

conditions.

State Forester Cox did not have

that rangers are not about when there

that he fought the fire for two weeks
