A Genuine Service.

4 'I believe' ' says an old sub--8criber, "that every time The Youth's Companion enters a home it does that home a genuine service. 9 1 That describes the purpose of the publishers exactly. The paper is not filled with mischievous or idle thoughts to fill an idle hour4 It provides healthy pastime, recreation that builds up. It i3 to the minds of eager and impressionable young people what sound athletics are to their bodies. At a cost of less than four cents a week. The Youth's Companion opens the door to a company of the most distinguished men and women in America and Europe. Whether they are revealing the latest discovet . science, or describing great industrial achievements, or telling of their wanderings in strange corners of the world, or feeding the imagination with rare stories they are giving Companion readers the best of themselves. Seven serials at least will be published by The Companion in . 1913, and nearly 200 other complete stories, in addition to some 50 special contributions, and a treasure-box of sketches, anecdotes, expert advice as to athletic sports, ideas for handy devic es round the house, and so forth long hours of companionship with the wise, the adventuous and the entertaining. Announcement for 1913 will be sent with sample copies of the paper to any address on request. Every new subscriber who sends $2.00 for the fifty-two weekly issues of 1913 will receive as a gift The Companion Window 4 Transparency and Calendar for f& 1913, the most exquisite novelty ever offered to Companion readers; also, all the issues of The Companion for the remaining weeks of 1912, free.

, QUESTION CLEARED UP. ""

Hews Readers Can No Longer Doubt the Evidence. Again and again we have read cf strangers in distant towns who have been cured by this or that medicine. But Jasper's pertinent question has always been "Has anyone here in Jasper been curd?' The word of a stranger living a hundred miles away may oe true, but it cannot have the same weight with us as the word of our own citizens, whom we know and respect, and whose evidence we can so easily prove. Charles Borho, prop machine shop, Main St,, Jasper, Ind , says: 4 'I can vouch for Doan's Kidney Pills for I know them to be a good kidney remedy. I frequently had dizzy spells and headaches and in the morning I could hardly get around I found no relief until I began using Doan's Kidney Pills. I had ter rible attacks of backache and my k?dneys were badly disordered: Doan's Kidney rills, which l got at the Flick & Pfau Pharmacy cured me." For sale by all dealers. Price 00 cents.

Tho recent statement of the chairman of the Democratic general finance' committee showed that 17.1 lü individuals have contributed in the aggregate about $3(J0,(JU0 and that about $750,000 more is needed for tho legitimate expenses of the campaign That would bo a small sum to a candidate who could pass around the hat among four trust magnates and get it back with $450,000, but it is a large sum to the supporters of Woodrow Wilson's cam flldacy, and everybody should chip In according to his means without wait ing to see wlyit his neighbor is goln to do about it. IT IS UP TO YOU! rho frecborn citizen gets up when dew is on the grass Ajid sees himself reflected in a. trust mado looking glass. A trust controls the soap ho finds at length upon the Ftnnd, And through the favor of some trust he takes his comb In hand. Ilia shoos, suspenders, shirt and socks. tho buttons on his coat, His handkerchief, his necktio and the collar round his throat All came from factories that trusts permit to operate; A trust allows him to have coal to pile upon the grate. By yielding to the sugar trust he makes his coffee sweet; By bowing to the beef trust he may have a steak to eat; Tho cracker trust, tho flour trust, the coffee trust, likewise, Take tribute from tho man who dwolla iwherc freedom's bunner flics. He rises from the table vvhleh a trust leaves in his crtro And on tho trust made hall tree finds a trust mado hat to wear. Now boo tho frocborn citizen upon the trust owned car; By paying tribute ho may ride to where his duties aro. He sits before a trust made dosk a trust has said ho may And, being freo and equal, ha tolls for tho trust all day: At night a trust provides his light, and when his prayers aro said Tho uncrowned king devoutly kneels bcsldo a trust mado bod. Thus ail his trust's bound up In tausts that treat him as they pleaso. Ho lives through favor of the trusts; to them ho bends his knees. Ah, let us trust that whon ho dies and leaves this world of caro Borao trust will waft him to the skies and give him glory thore.
