Watch Your Kidneys!
That "bad back” is probably due to
weak kidneys. It shows in a dull,
throbbing backache, or sharp twinges
when stooping. You have headaches,
too, dizzy spells, a tired nervous feel
ing and irregular kidney action. Don’t
neglect it—there is danger of dropsy,
gravel or Bright’s disease! Use Doan’s
Kidney Pills. Thousands have saved
themselves more serious ailments by
the timely use of Doan's. Ask Your

(Oentlemen:—
On the recommendation of the DI*
sector of the Alabama Experiment
Station that we plant, under boll wee
vil conditions, at least a part of our
zotton acreage In early maturing va
rieties, we purchased from you the
■King’s Improved cotton seed.
We are now convinced that it was a
wise suggestion, as every customer to
whom we sold or furnished these seed,
where the land was properly prepared
«nd the crop thoroughly worked, has
* heavily fruited stalk.
We were particularly pleased with
ahe seed gotten from you, In that they
appeared to be selected for planting
ipurposes, being sound. Those pur-
thased from Jobbers had the appear
ance of “run out” seed, and when
planted resulted In a poor stand. The
King variety of cotton has come to
stay In this section.
Yours very truly,

A WRIT
OF REPLEVIN
By MAX HART
(Copyright.)
For. instance, there was the wonder
ful silk—blue silk—gown, with Irish
point-lace and a sash made from the
wing of an angel; there wns the two
wheeled bicycle running on pneumatic
tires which the family refused you,
until life seemed drub and useless;
there wus the seventy horsepower tour
ing car, with its French driver; or per
haps it was u country home on a Maine
hill, a diamond sunburst, a clockwork
horse In pale pink with a stiff tail
first suit of evening clothes, a Daghls-
tun rug, new heels on your old shoes,
a check from responsible sources, the
encouraging smile of a strange woman
whom you had discreetly admired,
(lie new crystal in your injured watch
—it might simmer on indefinitely.
This is the point, and it permits of
no dissension, it allows no argument, it
is unto itself an all-incontrovertible
fact: That which % we have, we are
quietly pleased with, when it is good;
hut the keen and biting edge of our ap
preciation becomes dulled from the
first moment of possession—the wire
fine edge of the joyous, shocking thrill
of novelty slides rapidly away, despite
our best efforts to hold it, and some of
us become numb—very numb.
The “this-suits-me-fine” of the second
day loses one-half a tone, and there
can he no better way of illustrating
than to wander idly into the home of
Mr. James Bralnard, on Morningside
Bark.
Mrs. Bralnard—Aline, of course—is
sitting on a green couch in (lie morn
ing-room. Her eyes nre fastened upon
a naphtha launch that scurries along
tlie surface of (he Hudson a mile away.
It is a delightfully busy launch, and
for a long time Mrs. Bralnard watches
It circle and line, until tlie water-spout
on the building next door blots it out.
Around her Is wealth—profuse, un
restrained wealth, and the culture that
follows it. There are servants at (he
end of each thin hell-wire. The floors
are Inch deep with expensive rugs.
Paintings till the bare spaces, and bits
of statuary are scattered through the
larger rooms.
Wherever she looks, Mrs. Bralnard
sees possessions—those things that she
owns, she and Jim Bralnard, who, at
the movent of our impertinence, is puz
zling over a legal problem in Broad
street.
James is,very rich, very successful,
very much sought after, and very close
to the ragged edge of a smash-up, not
financial, not moral, not domestic, not
romantic—just a plain smash-up, for
which no defining expression is yet
within the language.
And now to draw hack (lie curtain.
Aline and James married in Dubuque,
Iowa,, and came to New York city ou
the first two hundred dollars. For a
long time after their arrival. James
operated upon a fleeting basis, without
office, without practice, and frequently
without food.
He did little tasks around police
courts, and Aline was captain and gen
eral manager of the little apartment
on Fast Ninety-lhird sireet, which
eavered away from their tiny sink
ing-fund the sum of sixteen dollars per
month. It was a genuine sinking-fund,
living strictly to its name.
On Fast Ninety-third street the land
lords run to furnished flats, and the
Brainards occupied one. It was small
beyond the jokes In comic papers.
Aline promptly discovered how It
hould he used, even if it were intended
for something else; und, as the ring
hung almost beside the door leading
into die hall, it wns her thoughtful
custom to greet James upon his return
om downtown with a wifely kiss,
which she delivered tliiougli the leather
ring.
Not a bit of sense to it, of course;
Hit Aline liked it, and the ring just
covered her eyes. So, sometimes, Jim
ouhlift tell that site had been crying.
When the little launch drifted out of
her sigiit the little flat drifted in, and
for a long time she sat In silence, re
calling one familiar object after an
other, and wondering what hud hap
pened to her ami to Jim in the years
that had crept between.
Not so very many years, she mused.
He was a bit younger then, to be sure.
So was she.
But in those happy, poverty-stricken
months, life had held something for
uch of them that It no longer pos
sessed. At least, if It still held it for
her, in a measure, it seemed not to for
Jim.
It was appreciation, she decided. Of
course, Jim was comparatively happy.
He realized that his life was flowing in
smooth waters. lie was pleased with
ids beautiful home and with his wife,
hut always In a dull, inert way.
He had somehow reached tomorrow,
mil had found it commonplace and,
worst of all, he was drifting away from
Aline; not through desire*stf his and
not because he was weary of having
her, but because something inside him
was becoming atrophied. The world
was getting Jim, and Aline was losing
him.
“And I can remember,” she said
aloud, “the time the plumbers came
and pipad our .first flat and put in the
gas jets to replace the oil lump. Jim
and I nearly died of Joy—.sut up und
read the whole night through Just be
cause we could.
“I wish Jim could like tilings now as
he liked those foolish gas jets. At
least, I’m', not like trim. 1 love him
this minute just as I loved him on
Vlnety-thlrfl street, and Heaven kuows
how often we agreed that nobody had
ever loved like that before. But Jim!”
She laughed mirthlessly.
“Jim’s a big man now. If he were
to come home tonight and find that
they had cut a hole in the wall and
built a covered bridge to heaven for
our particular use, he’d only say,
‘Humph! Quite an Improvement,’ and
forget it.”
When the Hon. Mr. Brainard re
turned to his Broad street offices late
in the afternoon, he was deeply vexed
and snappy in manner.
The directors’ meeting which he had
attended Had shown a thorough dislike
for several of his pet projects, and it
had become necessary’ for his fellow
members to curb his enthusiasm with a
number of stinging rebukes.
At his office he found a request that
demanded his attention. For ten min
utes he puzzled over the yellow tele
phone message, frowning and strongly
tempted to tear it into bits and leave
for home.
The element of curiosity crept into
liis meditation. The call was a demand
for his services in a personal affair,
and it was a long lime since he had
dabbled in personalities.
“Who was tills?” he asked the office
manager,
“I know nothing about it beyond
what you read. I think it’s a separa
tion case—something that somebody
wants done about her husband. Possibly
it’s a non-support case.”
“If you hear anything further, sira
ply say that I can’t bother with it.”
He tossed tlie slip upon liis desk and
drew on his coat. Before leaving the
office lie stopped over curiously and
picked up the message. Without any
particular thought, he dropped It into
an inside pocket.
The Brainard touring car could do
sixty miles an hour without touching
the last speed, and the diligent chauf
feur was closely approaching Hint mark
on tiie uptown ride, when Brainard
learned forward and spoke to him. The
cor slowed down at once, and, instead
of taking the usual course up the
Drive, It honked its way to the opposite
side of the city.
“Very odd," reflected the chauffeur,
“Very odd, Indeed."
Through unfanriliflr streets, packed
with traffic and cluttered with children,
the big car threaded a cautious way,
and finally Hie driver brought it to a
stop, with a rasp of brakes and a
growling of cylinders.
“This is (he number, sir,” lie said,
and Mr. Brainard stopped out.
Before him were dirty stone steps, a
railing that sagged in rusted dilapida
tion, and a greasy door, with a still
greasier entrance hall beyond.
For an Instant the lawyer paused.
He plucked the telephone memorandum
from his pocket and studied it. Then
he walked slowly up the steps and be
gan to scan the letter slips above the
push-buttons.
“This is It," lie muttered. “I must
be losing my senses to do a thing like
this.”
A faint clicking In the lock put an
end to liis rnusings, and he pushed the
door open and started up the stair
way. At the top of the first flight he
knocked loudly at n door that was
wholly hidden in the darkness of the
landing, and It opened at once.
A frightened, white-faced woman
stood directly before him, swaying
slightly—the woman whom he had
kissed good by at eigtit o’clock that
morning as he left for the office.
He stared at her in silence, closing
tne door behind him. Her heavy brown
hair was parted smoothly over her
forehead, and she was clad In a faded
blue wrapper—a wrapper that hail
once gloried in a wealth of red half-
moons.
It was the wrapper that shocked him
into the first realization of where lie
stood—the wrapper and a leather ring
that hung from the ceiling and which
Aline suddenly lifted in the long-for
gotten manner.
stepped forward and kissed lief.
A thousand times lie had done that.
His first wave of feeling—astonish
ment, anger—dropped away from him.
He stood fingering the frayed table-
cover.
Aline had sunk upon the couch, and
was crying. He knelt down beside her.
“Aline,” lie began, and there was a
tone in his voice that she had not heard
in years, “for an instant I didn’t un
derstand all this. Now I do."
He kissed her tear-stained cheek,
and went on.
“I didn’t know where I was. Why,
it’s tlie same old place. Not a blessed
tiling changed, not even tlie ring gone.
It’s going to take some time for me to
comprehend everything, but this does
me good."
Aline sat up and placed her hands
on Ids shoulders.
“Do you love me, Jim?” she asked
quietly.
He nodded without speaking. There
was a tenderness in his gray eyes that
needed no words. For several mo
ments he knelt there, holding her face
between iris bands.
Finally he said:
“I believe the little old place has
done Its duty fully and completely.
We’d better go, Aline, hadn’t we? The
ear is outside."
She rose, and swiftly removed the
faded wrapper of bygone days.
“I’m going to keep it,” she said
smiling. "And something else, too.
Let me have your knife. I will he a
flat-robber to this extent at least."
The leather circle that hung from the
ceiling came away at the touch of th*
blade.
“For luck,” said Aline. “Come on.
Jim,”
He kissed her again. Then lie
walked over to (lie poor little lied and
slipped a yellow bill beneath the covers
"For the next two,” he laughed
“For luck.”
MARKET FOR CHEESE TO GROW AS PEOPLE

United States have come to know

but there remain other opportunities,
notably tiiose to be found in popular

products route. Attention is called to
cheese particularly, because Ameri
cans have long neglected it in spite
of its excellent food properties, and
only recently have signs of growing

Greater Variety of Uses Uiged.
Attempts to develop a larger market;
for cheese should take into account*
the fact that practically all the cheese
now consumed is eaten ns purchased
A very large proportion of It is used
with bread or as a filling for sand
wiches. Cottage cheese in some form
is consumed in large quantities. Di
etists have no criticism of America’s
manner of eating ehosse, save that
they urge Its use in a greater variety
of ways, and more regularly,

of this food arc properly brought to
the attention of tlie public.
Eight countries have learned to
know cheese better than we have.
Denmark lends with a per capita con-

Kingdom, according to the latest fig

Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Italy,
and Australia are listed in the order

States, which has a per capita con
sumption of only 3.8 pounds a year.
Three-fourths of a century ago tlie
people of this country seemed in a

is comparable with meat. There
are a great variety of ways of using
cheese in the same way as meat, and
these can usually be readily learned
by consulting the average cook book.
In planning menus In which cheese is
given an important place, the house
wife should -bear in mind that, being
rich in both protein and fat, cheese
may replace such foods ns fish and
eggs, as well as meat, rather than cer
eal foods characterized by a large
amount of starch, or succulent foods
such ns vegetables and fruits.
How to Increase Demand.
Every interest concerned in enlarg
ing the market for cheese should join
in preaching the gospel of “more
cheese In the daily menu,” say dairy
specialists. There are many ways In
which this education campaign can be
carried on. Advertising is one effect
ive medium. Attractive displays of
cheese and cheese dishes, with well-
worded placards, in grocery and del
icatessen stores help materially.
NEW PARTS FOR IMPLEMENTS
Careful and Systematic Inspection
Should Be Made for Purpose of
Making Repairs.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
A careful and systematic inspection
of each implement should be made for
Hie purpose of making or ordering re
pairs. Plows, listers, harrows, rollers,
drags, seeders, drills, planters, culti
vators, mowers, binders, headers, bay
rakes, hay loaders, stackers, wagons,
racks, engines and horsepower or belt-
lriven machines such as separators,
silo cutters and feed grinders are the
implements in most common use. It is
suggested that each implement be in
spected for badly worn or broken parts
to determine ..’hat parts should be re
paired and those that must be replaced
with new ones.
As a reminder for ordering new parts
and in overhauling the machine, make
list for each Implement of the pnrts
to be repaired or the new parts to be
bought; also any special tools neces
sary in making these repairs. Put
lown the name of manufacturer, year
bought, and the number of the ma
chine, if it is known. If orders aye
sent to the factory, be sure to specify
the catalogue, pattern, or casting num-
Ix-r of the part. Order repair parts
