Read the following case: Veteran Joshua Heller, of 706 South Walnut street, Urbana, Ill, says: “In the fall of 18909 after getting Doan’'s Kidney Pills at Cunningham taking a course of treatment I told the readers of the paper that they had re- lleved me of kidney trouble, disposed of a lame back with pain across my loins and beneath the shoulder blades. During the interval which had elapsed I have had occasion to resort to Doan’s Kidney Pills when I noticed warnings of attack. On each and every occasion the results obtained were just as satis- factory as when the pills were first brought to my notice. I just as em- phatically indorse the preparation to- day as I did over two years ago.” A FxEE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mr. Heller will be mailed on application to any part of the United States.

For per box, The Chinese Carpenter. “Did you ever get a Chinese carpen- ter to stop up a hole in the floor?” asked one flat dweller of another. The other had to admit that he had not. Then the first proceeded to tell, his wonderful tale, which the listener would not believe until he tried an Oriental for the same purpose the next month. “There was a worn place in the floor that needed patching, and I thought I'd show my wife what a carpenter I was, so I sawed a square section of the planks out. But I cut my hand the first minute, and had to send for the Chinaman who has a shop right around the corner. When he got to the door he grunted something that sounded as if it might mean ‘Where?’ and I point- ed to the square hole over in a dark corner. ““Wow,’" he said as he squinted at it a minute. Then he turned around and walked out. I thought—well, I didn’t know what to think, I was so amazed. I couldn't understand his giving up such a simple job. I was still puzzling over it half an hour later when I heard a, kuock. He said ‘Wow,’ or some other word like it, and held up a square board. Then he walked over to the dark corner of the room and—what do : he-squage in, and it fitted just as if it had grown there. And he had just taken a peep at the hole from where he was standing in the door.” The flat dweller’s tale is no fairy story. That's the way a Chinese car- penter stops a hole in the floor.

The man who runs the elevator at a terminal railway station was accosted in a dull time of day, not long ago, by a tall countrywoman with an expression on her fa¢é compounded of fright and determination. “Could ‘I ride up high as you go?’ she asked, in a husky tone. “Sure, rest’rant ‘top floor,” said the elevator man, and after facilitating her entrance with a judicious shove he slammed the door‘and started his car. At the top floor he flung open’thé door and attempted to assist his ‘passenger out, She waved off his hand, however, and shook her head with great decision. “I thought I'd need something to eat after it,” she said briskly, “but ’tisn’t what ‘I'd been led to expect, and now all I want is to get downstairs again, take the four o'clock train for Pratt's Corner and tell Abel Jowders what I think of him. “He's been holding it over me for the last ‘six months—ever since stock- holders’ day—that he’d rid in an eleva- tor and I never had. He's got one share of stock in the railroad, and what with that and his talk about the way his hair rose and his suspenders bust with the tremendous speed in the elevator, and how folk that stayed at home had no notion of the gimp it took to ride in one, there's been no living with him.
