PROVED ay TIME. No Fear of Any Further Trouble: David Price, Corydon, la., says: “I Was In the last stage of kidney trouble

—lame, weak, run down to a mere skeleton. My back was ao bad I could hardly walk and the kidney secretions much disordered. A week after I began using Doan’s Kidney Pills I could walk with-

ont a cane, and as I continued my health gradually returned. I was so grateful I made a public statement of my case, and now seven years have passed, I am still perfectly well.” Sold by all dealers. 50c a box. Fo ter-Mllbnm Cos., Buffalo, N. Y.

She —Pooh! What Is a kiss It is nothing. He —Well you once said you could refuse me nothing, you know. —Chips. LAME BACK PRESCRIPTION The Increased use of “Tprts” for lame back and rheumatism Is causing considerable discussion among the medical fraternity. It is an almoßt Infallible cure when mixed with certain other ingredients and taken properly. The following formula Is effective: “To one-half pint of good whiskey add one ounce of Torls Compound and one ounce Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound. Take in tablespoonful doses before each meal and before retiring.” Torls compound is a product of the laboratories of the Globe Pharmaceutical Cos., Chicago, but it as well as the other ingredients can be had from any good druggist Optimist and Pessimist. Sydney Rosenfeld once wrote a comedy, entitled “The Optimist,” which achieved success after the production, but was a long time reaching the stage. Manager after manager refused the manuscript, and one day Mr. Rosenfeld, whose patience was exhausted, blurted out to his sole auditor: “Os course you don’t appreciate the play! You don’t even know the meaning of its name!” “Yes, I do,” - protested the Impresario. "Well,” insisted Rosenfeld, “what’s the difference between an optimist and a pessimist?” The manager barely hesitated: “An optimist is an eye doctor,” he said; “a pesstmist is a foot doctor." —Sunday Magazine. Why He Remembered. By some shuffling of the social cards the clergyman and the dog fancier were at the same afternoon tea. The wandering talk unexpectedly resolved Itself Into the question. Who were the 12 sons of Jacob? Even the cleric with the reversed collar had forgotten, but the doggy man reeled oft the names without error, from Reuben down to Benjamin. The clergyman looked surprised. “Oh, I’m not great shakes on Scripture,” said the man with the fox terriers, “but those are the names which some chap gave to a dozen puppies Tm willing to sell." Expert Pocket-Picking. An old lady was accosted In a London street by a well-dressed and re-fined-looking stranger, who effusively claimed her as a friend. “I really don’t believe you remember me!” she exclaimed, reproachfully, and the old lady, never doubting that her memory was at fault, confessed that she could not qttke recall the name. “Ah, but I have changed It since you knew me,” said her Interlocutor, gayly, and after a few more lively speeches she passed on, having possessed herself meanwhile of the old lady’s purse. t/ * i —; CAUSE AND EFFECT Good Digestion Follows Right Food. Indigestion and the attendant discomforts of mind and body are certain to follow continued use of improper food. \ Those who are still young and robust' are likely to overlook the fact that, as dropping water will wear • a stone away at last, so will the use of heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause loss of appetite and Indigestion. Fortunately many are thoughtful enough to study themselves and note the principle of Cause and Effect in their daily food. AN. Y. young woman writes her experience thus: “Sometime ago I had a lot of trouble from indigestion, caused by too rich food. I got so I was unable to digest scarcely anything, and medicines seemed useless. * “A friend advised tae to try GrapeNuts food, praising it highly, and as a last resort I tried it; lam thankful to say that Grape-Nuts not only relieved me of my trouble, but built me up and strengthened my digestive organs so that I can now eat anything I desire. But I stick Jo Grape-Nuts.” “There'w-a Reason.” Name given by Postufn Cos., Battle Creek, Mich. Read “The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs. Ever read the above Jettevf A Bew one appears from time to time.

TORTURED SIX MONTHB By Terrible Itching Eczema—Baby's Buffering Was Terrible Soon Entirely Cured by Cutlcura. “Eczema appeared on my son’s face. Wo went to a doctor who treated him for three monthß. Then he was so bad that his face and head were nothing but one sore and his ears looked as if they were going to fall off, so we tried another doctor for four months, the baby never getting any better. His hand and legs had big sores on them and the poor little fellow suffered so terribly that he could not sleep. After he had suffered six months we tiled a set of the Cutlcura Remedies "and the first treatment let him sleep and rest well; in one week the sores were gone and In two months he had a clear face. Now he is two years and has never had eczema again. Mrs. Louis beck, R. F. D. 3, San Antonio, Tex, Apr. 15, 1907.” THE QUARREL.

It is not only the frivolous whom the spirit of childishness Is just now leading astray. Silliness is the fashion even among the wise. Women especially affect a kind of childish shrewdness in talking of serious subjects. Like children who have the habit of romancing, they lose the sense of reality, and because they never talk exactly as they think they begin to think exactly as they talk. — London Spectator.
