Bachelors, like the poor, ' we
have always wiih us. Thay never
become extinct. The rising army
each year is attacked by an oppos
ing army of females, and each in
dividual is, of course, defeated and
led away to the slaughter, yet, in
spite of this fact, the bachelor still
persists.
Many things conspire to keep
him going; for one, there are the
cities. Bachelors who live in cities
learn to be very comfortable. They
can arrange their home decora
tions to suit themselves, and can at
any lime bring home a friend to
dinner without any criticism from
the management.
Bachelors who live in cities can
also eat and drink what they please
without interference, and so far as
all the material comforts are con
cerned, they can regulate their
lives to suit themselves.
On the other hand, ilie thing
that depletes the ranks of the bach
elors more than anything else is
lonesomeness. Many bachelors
are willing to put up with almost
any kind of a hard life so long as
they can get some one to share it
with. Ease and luxury are, after
all, among the minor concerns;
after a bachelor has experienced
them for a sufficient length of time
he is willing to get married, if only
to have some one to quarrel with.
Man is always looking for, trouble.
Dr. J. T. li. Seal, l'rop. Itiverside
Drug Co., (ireeuville, S. C, writes re.
cently, "I have been a practicinir phy
sieian and druggist for over 3j years and
have sold and administered many kid
ney medicines but uone to equal Foley
Kidney I'ills. They are superior to any
I ever used and give the quickest per
manent relief."
K. CLAliK
''If the coal man wroie his bills
for cigars he wouldn't be so un
popular.
Mrs. Hose A. Freeman, Clifford, Va.
says they have long used Foley's Kem
edies and want to say a good word for
them. She writes: "Foley Kidney
Tills cured my husband ofa long stand
ing kiduev trouble, alter he had taken
other medicines without relief. We
would not lie without Foley iv. Co. 's
medicines iu our house lor many times
their cost."
