 Experience
 You tax the kidneys-overwork them
 They can't keep up the continual strain.
 The back may give out-it may ache and pain;
 Urinary troubles may set in.
 Don't wait longer--take Doan's Kidney Pills. Ask your neigh5or!
 Canaan people tell you how they act.
 E. Overfeld, w. Main St., Canaan, says: My kidneys were put ont of order and it wasn't long before l began to have trouble with my back. My back was weak and when I bent over I had catches in my back My back was often stiff and sore and so weak half of the time that I couldn't t get very far ahead with my work The kidney secretions were 50 ire quent in passage that 1 had to get up during the night. Through a friend I got to using Doan's Kidney Pills and a few boxes which I got at Dempsey's Pharmacy got to the seat of the trouble and did away with the backache. Doan's also regulated my kidneys and put them in a normal condition"

married. He's engaged already"
 "EngagedI To whomT Harry asked.
 "To Annabel Brimstead. She's a at him and promised to marry him as soon as he was nominated for Pres ident by all his friends. She would now vote for him herself. He has become a good athlete and the best scholar In school. He has every boy and girl in the village working for him evenings and Saturdays"
 What are they doingT Harry asked.
 Making those newfangled things they call lucifers You can build fire in a second with 'em. They cut splinters out of soft wood, dip their ends in brimstone-which Joe learned how to make-and put them In hot oven until the birthstone Is baked. Then a scratch will bring a flame. Joe puts them up in bundles and sells them to the merchants and calls them lucifer matches. He has invented a machine that will cut and dip a thou sand splinters an hour. I tell you, Annabel is in \danger."'
 He took a luctfer out of his pocket and scratched 1t on the bottom of his boot. The party looked with wonder at its flame which quickly consumed the slender thread of pine in his f1n- gers.
 "I have always thought that Joe would make a whale of a man," said Harry.
 "We all seem to be threatened with immediate and overwhelming happi- ness," Bim exclaimed.
 "The only thing in the way of mine Is the national debt that have accu- mulated," Harry remarked.
 T knew he'd think of something," said Bim ruefully. If wanted to abolish the noble Institution of mar riage I'd make him chairman of the ways and means committee"
 Harry, your credit is still good with me, and I'm prosperous" Samson began. "I want you to know that Bim's energy and skill are mostly re- sponsible for my success, I guess we owe ulOre lO yOuI SlChueSS IIdu yOu ES aware of. If 1t hadn't been for that we would be plodding along at the same old pace. We would not have felt the need of speeding up. It was your misfortune that brought Bim into the store.

She's kept me awake nights talking about 1t. The thing has worried us plenty. We rebel and demand action before anything else happens. We feel as if we had some rights in this case"
 'T concede them and second your demand" Harry answered. 'Bim must name a near day. I only need week to get some clothes and go up to Mil waukee on a little matter of business"
 'T don't know whether we'll give him a week or not" said Bim playfully. "A great many things may happen to him in week."

 You are the smartest and loveliest looking creature that 1 ever saw tn my life" said Harry after he had held her In his arms a moment.
 But see what happened to me look at my face," she answered.
 Tt Is more beautiful than ever," he said. Those marks have doubled my love for you. They are medals of honor better than this one that I wear. I want to marry you as soon as possible. I've been looking for ward to that since I was sixteen"

 These pictures are: "The Sunset Hour" An Arab Boy" and "A Marsh Pool" .>

 After returning to New York he became one of the founders of The Society of American Artists. He was instructor at the Students Art League and president of the New York Art club
 Cecelia Beaux was his pupil until she produced noted painting which he supervised
 His paintings have been bought by artists, and by the Metropolitan Museum. One which he sent to the Universal exposition at Buenos Aires was bought by the Argentine gov ernment. Another was bought by the French government for the Luxem- burg gallery in Paris. Four of his works are owned by the Portland, Ore, art gallery, and one by Corcoran gallery of Washington, D. c.
 Though at first known strictly as a portrait and figure painter, he was soon classed as landscape painter.
 While living in Paris he was ac- customed to dine with Rosa Bonheur.
