If you want to give a statement
the widest degree of publicity, start
it on its way as a secret that must
not be repeated.
When an employee gets the, idea
that he is hited to instruct his boss,
it is a sign that the employee will

Maybe the reason why a man

if he doesn'i he'll have to listen to
arguments on both of them.
You can ulways depend on the

Some people do not know where
to draw the line between enthusi

VCe notice that some of the suffs
who demand equul privileges are
raising mustaches like the men.
But we doubt if the suffs will ever
insist on the male privilege of be

Women love nice clothes. But
there never was a mother who
dressed belter than her unmarried
daughter.
Many a man loses a wad of coin
on a sure thing because he was too
smart to lake u chance.
it must be a rebel to some men
to know that they will never he
talked to death by the voice of con

Some of the June brides have
settled down by this time and are
wondering what mamma put in
their coffee to get them to go to the
altar with what they married.
Men have a lot of fool ways of
hunting for trouble. But a woman
lakes the ptie when she marries
a man to reform him.

On a road in Belgium a German
officer met a boy leading a jackass,
and addressed him in a heavy jo
vial fashion as follows:
"That's a fine jackass you have,
my son. What do you call it? Al
bert, I bet!"
"Oh, no," the boy replied quick
ly. "I think too highly of my
king."
The German scowled and re
turned: "I hope you don't dare
call it William."
Oh, no, officer. I think too

TWICE PROVEN,
If you suffer headache, sleepless
nights, tired, dull days and dis
tressing urinary disorders, don't
experiment. Read this twice told
testimony. It's Weldon evidence
doubly proven.
George Mt'. Tye, Cedar Street,
Weldon, says: "My kidneys were
not acting as they should and the
kidney secretions were unnatural.
I also had pains in the small of my
back and through my kidneys,
Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me
of all aches and pains, regulated
the action of my kidneys and did
nie good generally." (Statement
given December 14, 1910.)
A l asting Effect
Over three years later, Mr. Tye
said: "The benefit Doan's Kidney
Pills gave me has been lasting.
I have had no occasion to use ill em
for the past two years."
