DAY OF HORSE ALMOST GONE
Increasing Use Of Motor Apparatus
Will Soon Make Him Only
Loving Memory.

A defective fiue had brought the
fire department to Tenth and Te-
cumseh streets. New, bright red mo
tor apparatus came rushing up from
a half-dozen firehOuses. Presently a
worn old hook and ladder truck. horse
drawn, appeared on the scene. Ii car
ried just the ladders the firemen need
ed TO reach the fire.
The crowd that gathered smiled at
the picture. The old horses seemed
TO know that they were playing an
important part, even In the presence
of their enemies, the motor apparatus.
1t was a picture of changing time.
One by one the motor machines turned
away, leaving the horse machine to
finish the job.
Somehow, the crowd moved toward
the horses and. one by one, men,
women and children, paused TO stroke
the names or pat the noses of the
faithful old beasts that now are fast
passing to the Land of Memory.
And, somehow, the horses seemed to
know and understand. Their heads
were not down. however. Instead,
they looked around and saw that the
enemy had left the fight to them.
'Still on the job" they would have
said had the crowd the power to un-
derstand them.
Yes, still on the job, outgoing

National Museum GETS opaIs.

The National museum in Washing
ton has just received from Archie
Rice, an opal expert In New York,
100 specimens of gem opal In the
rough just as they come from the
only opal mines in the United States.
The opals are red, white, blue, black,
brown, green and purple; two have
replaced fossil wood, and three pos
sibly fossil bones.
The mine Is located In Humboldt
county, Nevada, about a mile above
sea level and some 200 miles inland
from the Pacific; not very accessible,
since the railroad town OF Winnie
mucca is about 120 miles away. Be
cause Of the high altitude, the or
binary water content OF the opals Is
often injuriously affected when they
are removed from the ground.
Thus far. excavation for opals has
gone only to a depth OF % or 80 feet

One Who Shows No. Favor
A merciless judge is Father Time.
Before him the weak and the wanting
go to the wall. Only the truth can
stand. For years the following state
ment from Belding resident has
with stood this sternest of all tests.
Lewis Honson, 900 S. Bridge ST.,
Belding, gave the following state
ment, September 9, 1916: "A few
years ago l was having trouble with
my kidneys and as l had known 9th.
ers who had been greatly benefited
by Doan's Kidney Pills. / got a box
at Connell's Drug store. My back
had been aching severely through the
small part and the kidney secretions
were too frequent in passage. The
use of few boxes of Doan's Kidney
Pills, however, cured me and | have
not been bothered since. l think there
is nothing like Doan's for kidney
complaint and gladly advise their
use to others"
On July 8, 1920, Mr.. Honson said;
"The cure Doan's Kidney Pills made
in my case has remained permanent
/ am always free in recommending
them to others, for l know what
Doan's are"
