CASE NO. 30,611.
C. E. Bole*, Dealer In Grain and Feed;
Addreea, 505 South Water Street,
Akron, Ohio—Cured In 1890.
Mr. Boles says: "Ever since the
Civil War 1 have had attack* of kid-
ney and bladder trouble, decidedly
worse during the last two or three
years. Although 1 consulted physi-
cians, some of whom told me I was
verging on Bright's disease, and 1 was
continually using standard remedies,
the excruciating aching just across
the kidneys, which radiated to the
Shoulder blades still existed. As might
be expected, when my kidneys were
\i a disturbed condition there was a
distressing and inconvenient difficulty
with the action of the kidney secre-
tions. A box of Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured at Lamparter & Co.'s drug
store, brought such a decided
change within a week that I continued
the treatment. The last attack, and it
was particularly aggravated, disap-
peared.”
Cure Confirmed Four Years'’ After.
Four years later Mr. Boies says: In
the siring of 1896 I made a public
statement of my experience with
Doan's Kidney Pills. This remedy
cured me of terrible aching in the kid-
neys, in the small of my back, in the
muscles of the shoulder blades, and
in the limbs. During the years that
have gone by I can conscientiously
say there have been no recurrences of
my old trouble. My confidence in
Doan's Kidney Pills is stronger than
ever, not only from my personal ex-
perience, but from the experience of
many others in Akron, which have
come to my notice.”
A FREE TRIAL of this great Kid-
ney medicine which cured Mr. Boles,
will be mailed ou application to any
part of the United States. Address

Called Him a “Corker.”
When President Roosevelt desires
to express his approbation of a man
In the highest possible terms he calls
him a “corker.” The wife of a finan-
cier was presented to Mr. Roosevelt.
"I am delighted to meet you,” said
the president. “I know your husband
very well. He is a corker.” The lady
went away w’onderlng. When she
reached home she asked her husband
what the president meant by calling
him a "corker” and said she was wor-
ried because Mr. Roosevelt entertain-
ed such an opinion on him. She felt
better.

New Postage Stamp.
The postmaster general ha* decid-
ed on a new stamp, designed for the
foreign mall service. It is to be of
a denomination new to the postal ser-
vice—13 cents. At present ft is im-
possible to send a registered letter
through the mails without using two
stamps, one of 5 cents, to pay the
postage, and one of 8 cents, to pay
the cost of registration. When the
13 cent stamp is on sale this will, of
course, be obviated by the use of one
stamp. The design of the stamp pro-
vides for a portrait of President Har-
rison.

“What are you hammering out on
your typewriter now?”
"1 am writing an account of a fierce
combat between an English sparrow
and a rattlesnake,” replied Spacer.
“Which whipped?”
“1 am going to make the sparrow
whip the snake, and not only whip
him. but kill him. Don't you thing it
would be more exciting that way?”
“Then you didn’t really see the
fight?”
“Certainly not. I don't suppose
anybody ever saw such a fight. That's
why I'm writing the story.”
Sleep for Children.
In Sweden a committee was appoint-
ed for the purpose of ascertaining
how many hours children of various
ages ought to sleep.
According to the report forwarded
to the minister of education, children
who are 4 years old should sleep twelve
hours; children who are 7 years old,
eleven hours; children who are 9 years
old. from nine to ten hours, and those
who are from 14 to 21 years old, from
nine to ten hours.
It further points out that anaemia
and weakness in children are frequent-
ly due to lack of sleep.
Some people waste entirely too much
time in making preparations .to attend
a function that requires but a few min-
utes.
Conscience is a monitor it is ever, in
order to listen to and obey, for, as' a
rule, it is a right guard, no matter how

Londoners are laughing over a story
in which Lord Roberts, the diminutive
warrior, is a central figure. It con-
cerns a prominent man of great physi-
cal proportions who, on being intro-
duced to Ixird Roberts, shaded his eye*
in a would-be funny attempt to simu-
late difficulty in seeing the small per-
son of the earl and remarked: "Ah,
Lord Roberts, delighted I have fre-
quently heard of you, but I have never
seen you before.” To which his lord-
ship calmly replied: "And 1 have seen
you, but I have never heard of you be-
fore.”

fatigue of a strenuous political life, be
enjoyed several drives about the Berk-
shire country. On one of these he ob-
served a milestone indicating the dis-
tance to Stockbridge a* four miles,
when he knew they were within a
much shorter radius of that town.
Said Mr. Low to the driver:
“What’s the matter with that mile-
stone?”
"Oh!” was the keen response
promptly given. “The milestone's all

Pe ru na is known from the___________

commeudation testifying to the merits of
Fe-ru-uu a* a catarrh remedy are pouring
iu from every Ktate iu the Union. Dr.
Hartman is receiving hundreds of letters
daily. All classes write these letters, from
the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan,
the clerk, the editor, the statesman, the
preacher—all agree that Pe-ru-na is the
catarrh remedy of the age. The stage and
rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their great-
est enemy, are especially enthusiastic in
their praise and testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health must
be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh ia
well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent.
Pe-ru-na is the only atxolute safegusnl

catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not

Good Invsstrpent.
William F. Howe, the noted criminal
lawyer of New York city, who died a
few weeks ago, was addicted to loud
clothes, large diamonds and watch
chains so heavy that they tore his
pockets. Once, when defending a cli-
ent, he tearfully protested that he was
“too poor a m&n to take the case” un-
less he believed the accused to be inno-
cent. The judge, looking him over,
observed quietly: "Well, Mr. Howe, I
would be willing to give a few dollars
for you just as you stand.” There was
no trade made by the two, however,
it Is safe Lo say.
INSIST ON GETTING IT.
Borne grocer* say they don't keep De-

a stock on band of other brand* contain-
ing only 12 oz. in a package, which they
