Never neglect your kidneys.
If you have pain in the back, urinary
disorders, dizziness and nervousness,it's
time to act and no time to experiment.
These are all symptoms of kidney trou
ble, and you snould seek remedy which
is known to cure the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills Is the remedy to
use. It has cured many stubborn case.
No need to experiment.
A. M. Buck, a painter, living corner

Doan's Kidney Kills My experience
with kidney trouble dates back to the

doctored a great deal and took treat
ment from the leading physicians of St.

received a temporary relief. The puin
was in the sma 1 of my back and was so

without tortue. After coming out here
the comD'aint still clung to me nntil a
friend advised me to try Doan's Kidney
Pills. I did not pay much attention to
his advice at the time, because I sad

them advertised last summer, as I was

Cuttinic a Cauiro.
It Is said that the stoue from which

Is so plentiful on the Uruguay river,
la Brazil, that ships often take it away
as ballast. Nevertheless perfect pieces
of large size are costly, a piece suit
able for a large portal costing as much
as This stone Is preferred for
cameos because of Its hardness and
durability and is suitable for such work
owing to the fact that It comes in lay
ers of contrasting color, as black and
white, black and cream or red and
white. When the cut figure is sunk In
to the stone instead of being raised the
cutting Is called an intaglio. The cost
of these gems is due to the time and
skill required In the work. Formerly
a small gem might occupy an artist for
a year or more, but with modern ap
pliances the work can be done much
more rapidly. Still the ancient work
bears the palm for artistic excellence
The cutting Is now done by holding
the stone against a revolving drill
whose soft steel face Is covered with
diamond du*t. No steel is hard enough
to cut the stone. The utmost patience
and caution and delicate handling are
required, as the slightest slip may be
fatal to the work.

"I wonder," said Ellen Shirley to her
sister Fanny, "what has come over
Japa. For several days he has been
dreaming. At times there seems to
flutter within him something of his
faraway youth. I can see it In his
?tep, his eye, his smile, though he
smiles so seldom."
"Heaven grant," replied Fanny,
changing color, "that he has not been
caught by some designing woman.
How terrible to think of a specially
manufactured mother."
Hlchard Shirley's married life had
been devoid of anything more than a
family affection. Ills wife was a "cold
woman, whom he had married for her
fortune. She had given herself, but her
fortune she had retained In her own

had never known what It was to be
mated.
The family remained at their country
seat till after the holidays, and every
