Are You Sure‘ Your Kidneys Are Weil? Many rheumatic attacks are due to uric acid in the blood. But the duty of the kidneys is to remove all uric acid from the blood. Its presence there shows the kidneys are inactive. Don’t dally with “uric acid solvents” You might go on till doomsday with them, but until you cure the kidneys you will never get well. Doans Kidney Pills not only remove uric acid, but cure the kidneys and then all danger from uric acid is ended. Here is Bemidji testimony to prove it. Mrs. Mary A. Cochran, living at 1014 Mississippi avenue, Bemidji, Minn.,, says: ‘I had been suffering from rheumatism for over ten years and was troubled with. this complaint for © so long that I never expected to get releif. My kidneys were badly disordered for two or three years and despite the many remidies I tried, I did .not get any better. At last Doan’s Kidney pills were brought to my attention and I procured a| box at the The Owl Drug Store, 1 have been using them for sometime and there is a great nnprovement in my condl- tion.

There never was but one oil portrait of Daniel Boone painted from life, and that was by Chester Harding, a dis-| tinguished artist of Boston, who came to Missouri in June, 1820, and painted it In the residence of Flanders Calla- way, Boone’s son-in-law, where Boone was then living, near the village of Marthasville, in Warren county. The Rev. James H. Welch, one of the oldest Baptist preachers in the state and fa-| ther of Aikman Welch, attorney general of Missouri during’ Governor Gamble’s administration, sat in Boone's bed be- hind Boone for him to lean agalnst Does not Color the Hair Destroys Dandruff AYER’S HAIR VIGOR Majority and Plurality. In politics the plurality is the great- est of more than two numbers and is also the excess of the highest number of votes cast for any one candidate over the next highest number. When & candidate receiyes out of 10,000 votes cast 4,000 and two other candidates receive respectively 8,500 and 2,500, the first I8 elected by a plurality, though he has received less than a majority of the whole vote, and he is said to have a plurality of 500 votes. If the numbers are 6,000, 8,000 and 1,000, the majority is 2,000 and the plurality 1s 3,000. A majority, there- fore, must be more than half the en- tire vote cast, and a candidate’s ma- Jority is, then, the difference between the number of votes he received and the combined number of votes cast for all other candidates; his plurality is the difference between his own num- ber and the number received by the candidate nearest to him. Oftentimes a candidate recelves a plurality, but not a majority. Unless there Is a tle there is always a plurality. — Path- finder. Why 8ailors Don’t Swim. “You think It's strange, do you,” said| the saflor, “that us shellbacks can hardly ever swim?” “Strange and almost criminal,” re- plied the druggist firmly. “Sailors who can’t swim—I don’t understand it at all” The sallor frowned. . “Supposin’,”” he sald, “on a cold, black night you found yourself in the sea, mot a spar left of the wreck. every shipmate drowned, nothin’ any- where but the cold, the blackness, the bitter water. In them conditions,” he said, “what would you ruther do— swim and swim and swim in agony till you dled or sink right down and dle at wunst?” “I think I'd rather dle at once,” said the drugglst, shuddering. “So sallors think,” said the other, “and it's to spare themselves possible long hours of agony that they like not to learn to swim. And they encourage their sons not to learn, too, If there’s any lkelihood of the lads follerln’ the sea.”—New Orleans Times-Democrat. The Moral of Playing Cards. Playing cards have had their moral side, it may surprise you to know. At the Blenhelm club in London, lecturing on the subject of playing cards from the point of view of the collector, Mr. Alfred Whitman sald that the most yaluahle nacks were those that tanght Biblical history or inculcated moral lessons, In Italy in the eighteenth cen- tury it was customary to issue packs of cards with Old Testament scenes engraved upon them. In Germany of the same period playlng cards with fables to which morals were attached were customary. French playing cards of the time of Louis XIV. were used to teach geography and history, while in the England of Elizabeth and the Stu- arts playing cards were used as po- litical pamphlets. Most valuable were cards issued in France at the time of the French revolution, when figures of Genius, Liberty and Equality took the place of kings, queens and knaves.— London Saturday Review. He Has Two Signatures. There 18 one New York business man who I8 reasonably proof against the forger, as he has two signatures and the forger must first get hold of one of his bank checks to get any action. Seeing the signature on a letter or ho- tel register would do the forger no good. The bank would not recognize it. “I don’t particularly fear the forger,” the business man admitted, “but my two signatures make me feel safer just the same. I am surprised that everybody doesn’t hit on the same plan. It's very easy after you get the knack of signing your name two sep- arate and distinct ways."—New York Globe. Hard to Do Without Pockets. “The most annoying thing in navy life for a recruit is the absence of side pockets in the uniform trousers,” said @ yeoman at the navy recruiting sta- tion. “The average man doesn’t realize how strong is the custom of thrusting his hands in his trousers pockets until he dons a palr without pockets. I've worn the navy uniform four years now, and I frequently find myself try- ing to put my hands in my pockets.”— Kansas City Times. Didn’t Wai jony Prolonged.

The slowworm.
