cure all kidney and bladder ills. 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.”

medicine which cured Mr. Heller will

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.
But you just let me get home! I left
him housed with a grippy cold so I
know he'll be there.”

“I know, but she has a rich relative
