W. M. Shelby, Batesville, Ark.,
says: “I believe that my work
brought on my kidney trouble.
I had a constant backache and
dizzy spells. The passages of
the kidney secretions were too
frequent and I knew that my
kidneys were at fault. Doan’s
Kidney Pills went to the root of
the trouble as soon as I used
them and made a permanent
cure. My former endorsement
still holds good.”

Safety In Friendship.
An Intimate friendship Is at once j
a safeguard In recreation and social
enjoyment, for a man thinks twice be
fore ha plunges Into surroundings
which he knows his beet friend would
condemn. It Is a stimulus, because j
in work or business, or even play, a j
man does not willingly lag behind
while the friend is forging ahead. In
common endeavors for good causes,
religious or social or political, friend
ship is a powerful inducement to self
forgetting activity.
Professor Recited Badly.
One day a college professor, going
to his class, carne across one of hia
students who had just fallen down
Asking him how lie fell, the student
replied, “Notwithstanding.” Telling
the anecdote a short time later the
professor said: “1 met, Mr. Junior the
other day, and he made a. very bright
remark. He had just fallen down, you
know; and, when I a3ked him how it
happened, he said, 'Nevertheless.’

One Word She Could Say.
An earnest London slum worker re
cords her unremitting, patient en
deavors to Improve the accent and
vowel enunciation of her little
protege, Blanche, for the sake of the
child’s future destiny "on the styge.”
Once, failing in all else, she tried a
mild dose of gentle ridicule. "You
can’t say ‘food,* can you, Blanche?”
she smiled, teaslngly. "I can say
‘fule!’’’ was the child’s crushing re
tort.
Not What She Meant.
The other evening at a simple
ocial function, opened with a game ot
ards, the host caused qnlte a stir
-mong the ladles present by announo
,iig after the guests had seated them
selves at the tables: “If everybody’s
nade up, we’ll start.” Self consciously
hey looked at one another and In
voluntarily their hands went to their

An unusual golf story comes from
Scotland. Mrs. Barnett, an American

playing on the course recently, had
her game considerably Interfered with j

had Just made a tee shot when the
crow secured the ball, and, after flying
with It for some distance, dropped 11.
The lady made two other shots, and |
the crow, to her amazement, twice re
turned and lifted the ball after ebo
bad played it.
