That morning lameness those sharp pains when bending or lifting, make work a burden and rest impossible. Don't be han dicapped by a bad bsck look to your kidneys. You will make no mistake by following this McCon nellsburg resident's example. P. F. Black, McConnellsburg, says: "While at work, I slipped and wrenched my back badly. After that I had great pain across my loins and my back often got lame and sore. I used Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Trout's Drugstore and they soon gave me relief Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't simply ask lor a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that" Mr. Black bad. Foster-Milburn'Co , Props.,' Buf falo, N. Y. Advertisement. Walt fflasoa on Booze. I wandered to the grogshop, Tom; I stood behind tbe bar and drank a bowl of lemonade and smoked a rann cigar; the same old kegs and jugs were there, tbe ones we used to know when we were on the roundup, Tom, some fifteen years apo. The bartend er is a new oni, Tom; tbe one who used to se l corrosive tangle bot to us is stoking now in II aT fax; the new one has a plate glass rout, his hair is combed quite ow, he looks just like the one we knew some niteen years ago Old soaks came up and called for booze, and dudelets staggered in and burned the lining from their throats with tine old Holland gin; and women stood outside the door, their faces seamed with woe and wept just as they used to weep some fifteen years ago. I asked about our our old time friends those cheerful and sporty men- some were in the poor house, Tom, and some were in the pen; and 'one the one we liked the best the hangman laid him low; tbe world is much the same, dear Tom, as fifteen years ago. I ask ed about that stately chap whom pride marked lor Its 'own; he nsed to say that he could drink or let the stuff alone; he perished of the James H. Jams, out in the storm and snow; ah; few survive who used to bowl some fifteen years ago. New crowds line up against the bar and call for crim son ink, new hands are trembling as they pour the stuff they should n't drink; but still the same old watchword rings, "This round's on me, you know: The same old cry of doom we heard some fifteen years ago. I wandered to the churchyard, Tom, and there I saw the graves of those who used to drown themselves jn red, fermented waves, and there were women , Sleeping mere , wnere grass and daisies grow, who wept and died ofbroken Jaearts some fifteen years ago. .And ' there were graves' where children slept, have slept for" many a year. : for- getful of tbe - woe ' that marked their short,"' sad 'journey here and 'neath a fine talT monument in peace there lieth 'low the man who used to sell tbe booze some fifteen 'years ago.

MATRIMONY NO EASY JOB Writer Point Out Why Girl Who Thinks So Is Making One of tho Greatest Mistakes. I heard a girl in an elevator the other day discu.ssingyith a sympa thizing friend her differences with a floorwalker, Elizabeth Sears writes in Harper's. "Aw," she said, 'T don't have to take any more sass off'n that gink. I'm goin' to quit here, anyhow. I'm goin' to be married. No more work and no more bossing for mo. Any girl of her mental caliber who enters the married state is walk ing right into tho hardest job she can ever hold down in her life, and .totally unequipped for her position. Inside a year, if she is as poor a wife as she has been a shopgirl, there will be another man hanging around the corner saloon trying to forget in a glass of cheap beer the confusion and the bad food in the flat at home. When she gleefully announced that she was going to stop work, the thought of the meals, the cleaning and the laundry had evidently not occurred to her. And the floor walker doesn't live who can hand out orders like a husband. You have to take them from a husband, -too, for you cannot quit jour job in matri mony as easily as you can in a shop. WEATHER FORECASTS. I .

Many famous men are very ordinary, except that they are un usual In the respects noted. E. W. Ilewe's Monthly. Origin of Razors. It was not until the early part of tho eighteenth century that razors were made of steel blades.
