WORDS FROM HOME
Statements That May Be Inves
tigated. Testimony of
Newport Citizens.
When a Newport citizen
comes to the front, telling his
friends and neighbors of his ex
perience, you can rely on his sin
cerity. The statements of peo
ple residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind
that backs Doan’s Kidney Pills.
Such testimony is convincing.
Investigation proves it true. Be
low is a statement of a Newport
resident. No stronger proof of
merit can be had.
Joseph F. Brown, farmer, R.
F. D. No. 2, Box 61 A., Newport,
Ark., says: “I suffered off and
on for several years from kid
ney complaint. The kidney se
cretions passed irregularly, the
flow usually being too frequent
and obliging me to get up at
night. Dull, heavy pains seated
themselves in the small of my
back and when I stooped, sharp
twinges darted through me. I
went from bad to worse until I
got Doan’s Kidney Pills at Dut
ton’s Drug Store, (now Walker’s
Pharmacy.) A few boxes cured
me.”

—and take no other. (Adv.)
SAVES DAUGHTER
Advice of Mother no Doubt Pre
vents Daughter’s Untimely End.
Ready, TCy.—“ I was not able to do
anything for nearly six months,” writes
Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, “and
was down in bed for three months.
I cannot tell you how 1 suffered with
my head, and with nervousness and
womanly troubles.
Our family doctor told my husband he
could not do me any good, and he had
to give it up. We tried another doctor,
but he did not help me.
At last, my mother advised me to take
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. 1 thought
it was no use for i was nearly dead and
nothing seemed to do me any good. But
I took eleven bottles, and now I am able
to do all of my work and my own
washing.
I think Cardui is the best medicine in
the world. My weight has increased,
and I look the picture of health. ”
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui
today. Delay is dangerous. We know
it will help you, for it has helped so
many thousands of other weak women
in the past 50 years.

IN GLORIOUS POMP OF WAR
Might and Terror Seemingly Incar
nate With the Winged Hus
sars of Poland.
SHk and satin, fur and velvet, had
giver away to shimmering metal, to
plurn ei helmet and the pelt of bear
and wolf; instead of 'he warm glow
of yrecious stones, flashed the cold
glirr of naked steel, in place of caf
tan oak and loose trousers, one saw
brea plate, loin guard and pelisse
And here were fares curiously still
under the curved ear-pieces, and here j
wpre bodies sheafed in plumage and
the skins of wild beasts.
Yet this was not enough. For to j
the roll of kettle-drums, the swirl of
fifes behind luart.ian. dragoon and
relter came the hussar, mounted and
pennoned lance at rest These men
sat their heavy horses, their lances
made a forest, and from their shoul
ders rose the famous “wings.” Suffi
ciently splendid in themselves, they
had added this last touch of splendor.
From their shoulders, as in the re
liefs of ancient. Egypt, rose great
wings—the rustling of them filled the
theater. Might and terror were in
carnate in these warriors What foe ■
could stand bef ir° the awful sibllance
of their onrush, this apparition of
something incoi eivabiv monstrous,
yet inconceivably superb?
War had fired 'his people to new
improvisations that ended in a gra.n
dpur reaching to the epic, the sub
lime The other nations had but
dreamed of war gods buoyed on the
spread of carved and painted wings;
the Pole dared to attempt them In his
line of battle, to embody them, to be
them.
Over this army floated Poland eagle,
white upon its blood-red ground. A
bishop raisp.d the sacred relics and the
cross and gave his blessing. Plainly,
without music, the front ranks kneel
ing, the mounted men behind, rose a
solemn chant of male voices. It was
the hymn made for Sobieskt’s legions
when they marched out to Vienna.—
Albert Kiarose, in Scribner's Maga
zine.
PAID TRIBUTE TO LAUGHTER
Men of Intellect and Renown Join In'
Teetlmony to the Value of
Jollity In Life.
The value of a good-natured laugh
may be rated low by some people:
but many writers have attested Its
worth In no measured terms.
It is not surprising that Charles
Lamb should have said, “A laugh is
worth a hundred groans in any mar
ket;" but from the lips of the somber
Carlyle one is scarcely prepared to
hear, ‘‘No man who has once heartily
and wholly laughed can be altogether
or irreclaimably bad.”
It was Douglas Jerrold who boldly
stated that, “What was talked of as
the golden chain of Jove was nothing
more than a succession of laughs, a
chromatic scal-e of merriment reach
ing from earth to Olympus.”
“I am persuaded,” wrote Laurence
Sterne, “that every time a man smiles
but much more so when he laughs—It
adds something to his fragment of
life."
Last of all may be cited the verdict
of Oliver Wendell Holmes, given with
his own Inimitable humor. “The riot>
out tumult of a laugh, I take It, la the
mob law of the features, and Pro
priety the magistrate who reads the
riot act.”—The Sunday Magazine.
Henry Vll.’s Chapel.
The Moat Honorable Order of the
Bath has ceased to be the Cinderella
among the orders of knighthood. With
the restoration of high ceremonial tn
Henry Vll.’s chapel the ignominy of
the past ends. Although no longer
the “wonder of the world" that In
land saw (for so-called architects of
the last century restored It out of all
recognition) the roof still remains a
thing of beauty. It has been suggest
ed that the chapel stands on the site
of a garden owned by Chancer. Hen
ry, who built it, lavished money upon
It—his successors evidently thought
too much, for they utterly neglected
It. When George I. reorganised the
order by introducing fresh blood,
more honorable canopies were need
ed; they were provided by dishonor

Utoral Truth.
A London story Illuminates the (to

Rich today, he was poor and a failure
up to the age of forty. His life, up to
that age, passed to the provinces on
two or three Quid a week. One Sat

show went up, the manager fled, and
Horace for three days lived on bread
end dripping. Then a letter came to
him from a London admirer, inclosing
ten pounds. The admirer forwarded
«(an an item from a theatrical page
that Horace Hamfat himself had writ
ten—"Horace Hamfat is starring to
Manchester.” But the typesetter had
made this item read, truly enough:
