DANGER SIGNAL NO. J comes
fror> the kidney secretions. They will
warn you when the kidneys arc sick.
Well kidneys excrete a clear, ambt r
fluid. Sick kidueys send out a thin,
pale and foamy, or a thick, red, ill
smelling urine, full of sediment and
irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute, tell you of
sick kidneys and warn you of the ap
proach of dropsy, diabetes and
Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney Pills
cure sick kidm ys and cure them per
manently.
Theodore Josephson, 513 Seventh
St., Astoria. Oregon, says: "About
five years ago I used Doan's Kidney
I'ills and derived great benefit. At
that time I was suffering fro n se
vere pains across my back and loins,
at 'times so severe that I was unable
to stoop or straighten. My kidneys
also bothered me a great deal, the se
cretions generally being too frequent
in passage. At last Doan's Kidney
Pills were brought to my attention
and I procured a box I used them
and as a result my health is now ex
cellent. I take a few doses of Doan's
Kidney Pills now and then, when
feeling any sign of backachc and they
never fail to banish the trouble.''

"1 uui a practical chap and believe
in marriages iiuide 011 common sense
principles, What does a limn want to
no and get intoxicated on love potions
for and then settle the mo.st important
mutter in his lite':"
This was iny reply to Eggleston
when lie" pot oft' a lot of folderol about
Jove aud sentiment and all that. I ad
mit I xvan Interested, for I was medi
tating a proposal myself. 1 felt very
miro Lydiu would have me. Why
shouldn't she? I was a passable fel
low; some property of my own; doing
nell In business; fairly educated and
jf good social position. That's the
view I expected l.ydia to take of me
.nil a union with me. not whether she
would decline me on the ground that
I didn't get maudlin over her or site
j over me. The question was, Having a
fairly good offer with a chance to set
tle down into matrimonial life, was
:iho to accept it or run the risk of not
ijettlng another as acceptable? So I
; went to her and said:
i ".Miss rtrlnslcy, I'm going to make
you a proposition? namely, that we
!>ass our lives together as man and
; wife till death do us part."
She looked at me out of a pair of
steely eyes for a few momenta and
said;
"How ii bout divorce/"
I've nottced t hut. no matter how
composedly u tuiin makes up his mind
to deal with u woman, she straight
way sets about to discompose liiui.
"The more common sense we put
Into n marriage the less likelihood
there'll be of a divorce." I said.
"It Is (lie only part of marriage in
which there in a likelihood. Death is
certain. Divorce is possible, sometimes
probable. It is a contingency that
should be prnvldid for."
"If seenr. to me that the first ?|Ues
tlon to lie net tied Is whether you are
prepared t" enter upon matrimony
with me. After that we can take up
the provisions, if there are any."
"Th:il'< ja-t like a man always get
ting the cart before the horse. It
seems to me that the provisions should
be settled first . The marriage is mere
ly a possible conclusion to tliein."
"Good gracious!" I exclaimed under
m.v breath. I was not prepared to
hear a woman speak of a proposition
of marriage as a categorical syllogism.
"Suppos.v" I said, "that we leave di
vorce till the I -t of the provisions or.
rattier, contingencies and begin with
something of more immediate con
cern."
"Well, what's your income?"
Again I wlm id. not so much at the
question as at her told blooded manner
of asking it. However, I considered
it an emlneiitl' proper one to ask and
responded frankly:
"I have from investments $.">,500."
"Itcal estate, bonds, stocks or what?"
Tills was getting irritating. I was
becoming flustered.
"After all. I was right in the iirst
place." I s.i'd. a I it sharply. "Vou ex
pert me to lay bare all m.v affairs to
you when you haven't given me t lie
slightest intimation that if they are
'satisfactory you will accept me for u
I husband."
"I was uot aware," she replied Icily,
"that 1 expectcd anything. I thought
that you were the expectant person."
O heavens! Worse and worse i I sat
' feeling and doubtless looking like a
foil. 1 toi l; out my handkerchief and
j wiped my lips t hey didn't need wip
ing?then dusted some specks off my
coat collar, then crossed one leg over
the other and said nothing. Neither
did Lydia.
"I think," I said presently, "that I
had better"?
"Begin all over?
A desire to net oven with Iter by
saying something siimrt took posses
' bioii ot' me. Wlivu a mail tries to beat
u woman l>y saying something smart
he always >,cts deeper in the mud.
"til' drop the subject," I suid, with
some hauteur.
"Vou lmveu't taken it Up yet," wus
her imperturbable reply.
What did she mean by this, I won
dered. Haven't taken it up! I tho\ight
I'd very mueh taken it up.
"Perhaps you haven't understood,"
i said, "what I've been talking about." j
j "I dare say 1 haven't."
"Didn't 1 make myself piaiu?"
"That depends upon what you had
, to say."
I was getting more miffed every mo
nient. 1 looked ominously at the door,
but it didn't seem, to frighten her. I
rose. That didn't frighten her either.
"On retleetion," 1 said, "I think my !
powers of stating things may be bet
ter adapted to some other intellect." i
"Male or female?"
j This broke uie up completely. I j
stood stupidly looking down at my ,
toes.
"Why don't you go aud explain it to \
some nice man and let him como and
j tell it to me," she remarked.
There was nothing ti> be gained with :
this cool creature. But her coolness, I
the disappointment I suffered, every- I
thing, maddened me. I scouted my !
practical ideas. 1 would gladly have j
thrown myself at her feet and begged
for pity, mercy, anything except this
horrible monster that stood between
ns. But how could 1 jump from my
position of a practical marriage ar
ranger to a despairing lover? There
was no hope. With a feeble attempt ,
lit indifference I went to the door.
Hearing a (hitter behind me, I was '
about to turn when a pair of arms ;
was flung about me, and I was held j
iu a tight grasp.
"Come bark," she laughed, "and be
gin anew. And this time at the be
diming."
What was the beginning? A kiss.
