THAT MORNING LAMENESS

If you are lame every morning,

To strengthen the weakened kidneys
and avert more serious troubles, use
Doan's Kidney Pills. YoH can rely on
Americas testimony.
Mrs r. H. Miller, 702 Addington
St., Americas, says: 81 suffered ter
ribly from backache and other symp-
toms of kidney disorder a few years

and there was no let up. / couldn't

kidneys acted too often and when /

OBSERVATIONS
BY TOM SIMS


1t costs more to live now; but it
is worth more.
All work and no play makes the
reformer killjoy.
Cut glass makes a fine wedding
present, but poor engagement ring.
The unemployed would call lit
tie work a vacation.
Many a man who thinks he was
fool when he married hasn't changed.
These oil stock suckers had better
let wells enough alone.
Every day the mine strike con-
tinues to predict a harder winter.
No husband is worthless; but some
are worth less than others.
The "obey" is being taken ont of
marriage rites. Some take it out of
the prohibition law also.
No one worries as much over what
he makes as over what he gets.
ALPS fair in love and war and they
are also alike in other ways.
"But until it hurts,' is the new
slogan. That's easy.
Lenine's shoulder is lame; but not
as lame as his excuses.
They say tobacco smoke kills
germs, and kisses are full of germs,
SO what could you expect from a
flapper?
The moon moves about $500 feet a
second; but the moonshine moves
more feet than that.
The man who is always looking
backward can see where he has been,
but not where he is going.
1t is better to do your best and ex-
pect the worst than do your worst
and expect the best.

Wherefore, putting. away lying
sneak every man truth with his
neighbor, for we are members one
of another.-Ephesians 4:25.
What is meant by our neighbor we
cannot doubt; it is everyone with
whom we are brought into contact.
First Of all, he is literally our neigh
Dor. Then it is he who is close to US
in our own neighborhood, our own
town or street. Beside these, as our
Lord teaches, it is everyone who is
thrown across our path by the
changes and chances of life.-A. P.

riage of Miss Wilma Smallfield,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Smallfield of Vine street, Daven-
port, and Walter Albrecht, son OF
Mrs. Nicholas Albrecht of 1902
Washington street, Davenport. The
wedding plans had been so carefully
guarded only a few members of the
Immediate families had been taken
into the secret that the ceremony
was to be Saturday morning at
1890 in Rock Island. The bridal
couple went to Trinity Episcopal
church for their wedding, Rev. w.

Miss Alvina Albrecht, sister of the
groom, and Mr.. and Mrs. MIX

Notes by Wire
to The Argus

Paris, April 24.-It did not seem
that sleeves could become more
elaborate. but they appear. to be
achieving that end. Some OF them
at present simply gap at the ell
bow-which is all very we'll if you
have that kind of elbow-and the
to parts are connected by the
merest wisp of braid or ribbon. To
make up for this pay, however. the
sleeve slides down over the hand
till it reaches almost to the finger
tips.
London, April 24-Knitting
seems to be almost as much of
fad as during the war. Summer
sport, clothes require variety
of sweaters, and knitting needles
are clicking merrily in anticipation
of that need. For the knitter there
have been devised subtle work
bags. One, of gay tango cretonne
with a petal shaped ruffle, is a
round bag when the draw string is
frightened with the petals gathered
about the top. When the draw
string is loosened. the bag be
comes a round apron with the pet
ais about the edge and the draw
string tied about the waist.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: My hus-
band has had friend who has
been almost brother to him ever
since they were in school together
This friend comes to our home q
great deal and he and my husband
have great times together. The
friend is not married.
OF course I did everything
could to make the friend feel well
come because l knew my husband
would want me to- I invited him
to dinner often and when he would
come and my husband was not al
home / would drop what I was do
ing and sit down and entertain
him.
This has been going on for two
years. Recently it has seemed to
me that the friend has been too
deeply interested in me, but ]
thought he merely felt better ac-
ouainted. But the last time my
husband was away from home he
came over because he knew I was
alone and he told me then that he
loved me and that he didn't think
he would come any more.
He asked me if 1 thought he
should tell my husband about his
love or If he should merely stay
away and not give my husband any
reason for it. l didn't know what
to advise him and 1 want your
help. UNCERTAIN
If your husbands friend tells
him the truth, it will hurt him to
know that he stands in the way of
his friends happiness, but he will
value the friend all the more be-
cause of his honor. But if the
friend merely stays away he will
hurt your husband deeply. be-
lieve it will be better if he tells
the truth and then stays away. He
lis right in deciding not to come
any more and neither you nor your
husband should urge him. because
seeing you will only make condi-
ditions harder for him.
If more men had his sense OF
honor we would have a better
world. He has sacrificed his own
desires because of his loyalty to
his friend. l wonder why he didn't
confess to your husband and re-
main silent to you, but it is evident
he tried to do the right thing.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 have
been secretly engaged to young
man for almost a year. We have
kept our engagement secret be-
cause his parents are opposed TO
his going with me or with any one
seriously and he is afraid to say
anything until he is ready to mar
ry. So that people would not
know we were engaged, he has
gone with other girls occasionally
and / have gone with other boys.
Lately l started going with an
other young man and l must con-
fess that my liking for him has
worried me. I have not felt that
cared as much for him as for my
fance, but there were many things
about him which l liked better
! Often he would take me to the
movies at the same time his father
and mother would go and he never
seemed to think it necessary to
keep anything secret.
Easter l received a large and
beautiful bunch of violets from
him and a little note with them
telling me how disappointed he was
that he coud not spend some part
