Why the Whistle Blew.
"Did you notice that peculiar whistle?"
asked the section foreman who was re
turnlg to his home in Wilmington. There
did not appear to be anything unusual
ubout It to the eur of the Star man and he
anked in what way It differed from dh.T
signals.
"Well, It was made In an open part cf
the road, not near a town or crossing, and
was sort of mournful. There la k story
that goes with that whistle! Jim Watson,
the engineer of this train, ever since the
night his engine crushed out a life tit
thut ')Ut, has made that signal when he
goes by there. It was on a foggy night, as
1 have heard Jim say, and the headlight
only showed a big white bank of mist
which he couldn't see through.
"He had an uneasy feeling like men
have sometimes when something disas
trous Is going to happen and that made
him unusually alert. It was on a part
of the read where the trulns are scheduled
up to a high rate of speed and Jim hud her
going at a lively pace. The feeling that
there was something wrong could not lie
shaken off and he cursed the fog that shut
out the track ahead.
"Suddenly a figure shot Into the light,
Jim saw for an instant her eyes full of ter
ror and then the train swept on with hor
rible persistence.
"Jim slowed up and went bark. He and
the fireman threw what was left of the
cow off the 'truck. The owner of the unl
nml ufterward sued the company for dam
ages and Jim had to pay iM for It. He
never did like to part with his money and
the Incident made such an Impression on
him that every time he passes the spot
where the death occurred he blows a low,
mournful whistle." Washington Star.

(From the Buffalo Evening News.)
If you were to call at 27 Front avenue
you would ftna a pleasant elderly lady,
Mrs. Captln Henesy by name. Her
kindly smile and Joyous manner are to
no small extent due to the escape she has
had. Her own words can better de
scribe her rescue and one can easily un
derstand her present happy condition
when they realize what she has gone
vrough. She says: "About five
l. onths ago I had an attack of sickness
which lasted for a week and since that
time I have been subject at Intervals
to similar attacks, some of which were
longer In duration. It Is hard for me to
describe how I suffered. The pain
would commence In my head, after
which It would seem to pass down my
body and settle In my back, my sides
ached, my buck ached, and I had a feel
ing of great distress In the bowels. The
Increased pain which seemed to como
from lying down, would be almost un
bearable, my face and stomach would
bloat up and I could hardly stand on
my feet, diszlness made it almost Im
possible; this feeling was always with
me even after the violence of the attack
passed over. The last attack I had was
the worst, and was so bad I would not
have been able to tell this story but for
Doan's Kidney Pills. As soon as I com
menced their use I found immediate re
lief. The pain in my back and sides
left me and the dizziness went with It;
the bloating in my face and body dis
appeared and all distress In my bowels
was gone. 1 have great fulth In Doan's
Kidney Pills; in a short time they did a
great deal more for me than all the
plasters and medicines which I had re
sorted to In seeking relief and cure. I
hope always to be able to procure
them."

POOR POLICY
We have always considered it, without regard to ethics, poor
business policy to depart from the lines ot strictest truth in the
statements contained in our advertisements. There are concerns
ay ho think it uwl business to wildly exaggerate in their ads, as
siiillin! that the ma ioritv of flip nconle like to lie htiinbuiEced. We
think, however, like the woman who kilted the goose that laid the
golden ci.
We Are in Business for "Keeps,"
Very often we have rare bargains for our customers. Then Is the time.
