MADE APOLLO COME DOWN
Didn’t Belong to the Union and the
Household Help Was “Sym
pathetic.”
The cook had struck. The coach
man had struck. The nurse had struck.
The maid had struck. Everybody had
struck, j-alatea the Chicago Record
Herald. With a sickening fear, the
great man heard a confused murmur
outside. It become louder, increasing
to a horrible din like unto that pro
duced by the Roman mob. He heard
his name shouted above the awful roar,
and, urged by his wife, he at last
ventured to a window.
“People,” he cried, “why have you
struck? What do you want? I have
tried to deal fairly with you. What is
your grievance?”
The coachman, who was acting as
leader of the crowd, stepped- forward,
saying:
“We were ordered out by the head
of the Teamsters’ union.”
“What has the Teamsters’ union
to do with me or the way my house
i - _
“You have a statue of Apollo In your
hall."
“Yes. It is one of my choicest pos
sessions. It is a great work of art
I am very proud of It"
“You must pull it down and have
It thrown out of your house before we
can return to work. We have our
orders from the president of the
Teamsters’ union."
“This is preposterous. What has
■ay statue of Apollo to do with you
or your duties? And where does the
Teamsters’ union come in?"
“It seems,” the coachman replied,
“that Apollo and Phoebus were the
same party, and it’s reported on good
authority that Phoebus used to be a
non-union driver. We’ve got our or
ders. We can’t work for a man who
sets up a statue of Phoebus> the scab(
in the hall.”
Realizing the force of the argu
ment, the great man yielded. It was
the first' time strikers had ever caught
him unprepared to go on with a new
set of hands.
Costly Living in Gotham.
Every day in New York there ts
some fresh aggravation to matrimony
cropping up in places affected by bach
elors. it costs ten cents more to be
rubbed with alcohol than it did sis
weeks ago. Manicuring is one dollai
instead of 78 cents. For years the
standard charge ofythe Turkish bath,
chiropodist and barber shop has been
80 cents. It is now 75 cents all over
the city. Cocktails in bath cafes were
formerly two for a quarter. Taey are
now 15 cents straight. Same way
with cigars. Drug stores are charging
men more for toilet articles. The
tailor who used to press a suit for 50
cents now asks 75 cents, and 36 cents
instead of a quarter for pressing
trousers. Charges for laundry work
have gone up 2d per cent. In small
expenditures alone it costs the map
who has to look out for himself six
dollars a week more to live now than
It did six months ago.—Pittsburg Dis

I WHY KIDNET DISEASE
IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect of the First Warning Symp
toms is the Prime Cause of so
-Many Deaths from the Dreaded
Bright’s Disease.
ft is Easily Ctirable In the Early Stages.
Kidney diseases are so destructive to
human life because they do not manifest
alarming symptoms until the constitu
tion is seriously weakened and the
strength exhausted. Then, too .often,
. the remedies employed by many physi
cians are of indifferent or doubtful value,
and the patient rapidly sinks under the
disease. The wisest course is to apply a
reliable kidney and liver remedy on the '
first appearance of the symptoms. A '
little uneasiness in the small of the back, '
digestive troubles, bowel irregularities ■
and disorder in the urinary organs are
matters of small moment in the estima
tion of strong men and women, yet they
have a serious meaning. They show
clearly that the kidneys are suffering
and need help, which must be forth
coming at once to prevent serious, per
haps fatal consequences. A few doses
of Prickly ^.sh Bitters at this time would
prove of incalculable value in restoring
the weakened organs to health. An
investment of one dollar in a bottle of
Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is
yet in the early stage will save hundreds
of dollars in doctor’s bills, besides the
suffering that would surely follow should
the disease be allowed to fasten itself in
the body. The excellent curative power
of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to
the first stages of kidney disease. It is
equally efficacious in severe or chronic
cases. Physicians have used it as a last
resort, in cases that defied their best
efforts, with the most brilliant results,
and it has shown its superiority over the
many so-called kidney cures, now being
loudly advertised, in instances innu
merable.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure 3 in red on the front label.
Sold at Drug Stores, $1.00 per bottle.
