You tax the kidneys—overwork them— They can't keep up the continual strain. The back gives out; It aches and pains; Urinary troubles set in. Don't wait longer—take Doan's Kid ney Pills. H. C. Hanson, cabinet-maker, living at 25 1-2 Mitchell street, Atlanta, Ga., says; "I bad backache for several years. Every time I caught the slight-1 cst cold it would settle In my back, and then It was difficult to describe my sufferings: I have been obliged to lay off work for ten days at a time, add could Beldont get out of bed without assistance. I got very little sleep, on account of tho severity of the pain. Tho kidney secretions were irregular and caused me much annoyance, used liniment after liniment nnd plas ter after plaster, but got little perma nent benefit. 1 saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised and got a box. I had little faith in them at the time, but 1 took them, and can say that I never had nnything act so quickly and ef fectively ns this remedy. In forty- eight hours from the time I took the first dose the pain in my back left me, and I am happy to state that It has never returned.

The discovery of a new wick princi ple—so effective yet so simple that It's a wonder no one thought of it be fore—has so revolutionized the man ufacture of oil heaters and lamps that explosions, smoke and smell, caused by Imperfect wick arrangement, may safely be regarded as tilings of the past. This new wick attachment Is to be found on the Perfection Oil Hester. Interesting tests show that although the heater gives lntcase heat, tho wick cannot be turned too high or to low—absolute safety thus being as sured. One other feature which la worthy of mention Is the smokeless device which prevents all smoke an1 odor. The portability of the heater also commends It for general house hold uae. Heater is very light and can be easily carried about. Its simple operation, usefulness in heating water and warming cold rooms make It a most handy and useful article In any home. This heater Is so far superior to other oil heaters, and Is of Bucb fair price that Its universal adoption la hut a matter of time. The Rayo Lamp, which Is made by the manufacturers of tho Perfection Oil Heater, Is without doubt-the best lamp for all round household use. Is equipped with the latest Improved burner, and gives a bright, steady light at smaii coat. Suitable far any room, whether library, dining-room, linrlor, or bedroom. The Perfection Oil Heater and the Rayo Lamp form a combination that for real home comfort cannot be equalled.' When consideration Is taken of tho simple operation of both heater and lamp, their absolute safety, tho Intense heat generated by the one, and the bright and steady light given by the other—all without smoke or smell—their value In any home, large of small, can be somewhat appreciated.

Norfolk, Va., Nov. 9.—The James town Ter-Centennial Exposition will be the tnecca of visiting organizations (hat will embrace every diversifica tion Of our muHlfh: !•:-'!« American life. These bodies which represent the en ergy. the industry, the associated worth of our country, will, for the most part, hold their annual reunions and conventions on tho spot hallowed by so many historic memories, and those who had prevously made arrange ments to meet elsewhere will Include a visit to the exposition in their Itiner ary. Among the organizations that will take this pleasant outing there Is none that will excite more Interest or re ceive a more hearty welcome than the society of the Army of tho Potomac. This organization Is made up of vet erans who served In the Army of the Potomac during the Civil war, and their present pdrposc is that one of all most dear to the chivalrous heart of a soldier—to keep alive the memories of their campaigns. During the spring of 1907, the so ciety of the Army of the Potomac will unveil a monument In Washington, D. C., to one of Its ablest commanders, General Geo. P. McClellan. As the occasion will evoke a full measure of the long cherished fondness and ad miration for “little Mac," which his sol diers always retain, the ceremonies at tending the unveiling will doubtless draw a full number. But the old soldiers will not be con tent to llmt their visit to the national capital. A trip down the Potomac to Che Jamestown Ter-Centennial Exposi tion will bring them near to the scenes of nearly halt a century ago when youth and valor sustained them In hardy enterprise. What an optimistic aspect the events of '01-65 now present to view. The cultured thought of the country Is In discriminate in bestowing praise on tho men who woro tho conflicting col ors of those days. The Blue and the Gray are associated together on the record of renown nnd the survivors of the contrst have long slnco forgotten the cmbltterments. Tho cordial salu tation and warm grasp of the hand is now the form of greeting, and these veterans .who followed McClellan will bo cheered by the remnant of those that followed "Lee. They are passing away rapidly these brave soldiers of nearly half a cen tury ago. The Gray and ‘ 1861-65 are swiftly becoming a mem ory, a reminiscence. No other such op portunity will over occur as that which tno Jamestown exposition will give for these valiant old men to meet and fra ternize, talk over the drastic hap- ON THE STREETS Michael Houseman Taken Up by the Police.
