    IN BED FOR WEEKS
Mr. Smith Was in a Bad Way,
But Doan’s Restored Him to
the Best of Health.
In April, 1016, Louis Smith, 90 New
8t., Hackensack, N. J.. said: “Words

from kidney complaint. In my work I
have to do a lot of heavy lifting and

was always dizzy and it seemed as if
everything was whirling. Little black
specks came before my eves and I also
suffered from painful and scanty pas-
sages of the kidney secretions. Every-
thing seemed dark and dreary.
“Doan's Kidney Pills completely
cured me and I am enjoying the best of
health now.”
“Sworn to before me.”
E. M. Johnson, Justice Peace.
On March 10, 1917, Mr. Smith added:
“I will never forget what Doan's hi
done for me. Whenever I eatch cold
on my kidneys, I can depend on Doan's
to fix me up all right.”

It has sometimes been sald that it Is

while this may not be true, it Is cer-
tain that genius not unacquainted
with the gutter, observes a writer in
London Tit-Bits. Everybody knows
that Francis Thompson, the poet, sold
matches on Ludgate hill among the
venders of penny toys, and that James
Thompson, the author of the “City of
Dreadful Night,” made his regular dor-
mitory the Thames embankment. No
wonder he found 80 apt a title for his
masterpiece!

Locks in Ancient Days.
The Greeks used an

fastened by a key which was easily
plied from within, but, to reach it from
without, a large hole was made in the
door allowing the hand to enter and
reach the lock with the key. The
Lacedaemonian lock, which was a la-
ter invention, did not require a hole to
be made in the door, but consisted of
a bolt placed on that side of the en-
trance door which opened. When a
