that under the circumstances it would

Women'as Well as Men

t
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis
courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor
and cheerfulness soon
disappear when the kid
neys are out of order
or diseased.
Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
that it is not uncommon
„ for a child to be born
fsSJ’ afflicted with weak kid-
- ' neys. If the child urin
ates too often, if the
urine scalds the fle^i or if, when the child
reaches an age when it should be able to
control the passage, it is yet afflicted with
bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of
the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made mis
erable with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.

THE MULE DEA '.Lit.
God made the wise ii\,n,
lie also made tl • foot;
He made all the animals,
Except it iva? the mule.
The mule is it cross
Between the jack and mare;
And to accuse God o : miking him,
1 sav it is not fair.
So in looking what to do.
And picking out my trade,
I had to lake au animal
That God, had i -a- made.
The mule is an animal
That God iievc-i made,
But 1 am surelv satisfied
Good men are in the trade.
So God said unto himself.
“White men I cannot fool,
So i will make the negro
That he may work the mule.”
In making this assertion
I may break the rule—-
God never , aid ve made the negro
Had i; not been for the mule.
So he had io deviate
! A little |)1 1 he rule;
He had to make the negro
'That he might work the mule.
In Blinking Hijs matter over
I sav without, an oath,
That i an. fully, satisfied
I his country needs them both.
There is one thing said of us,
! hat I here now deny;
That it’s a rule, wherever we go,
In selling mules, to lie
I he merchant sells a pa ce of goods
And says it will not fade;
That’s as big a he as ever I told
In any mule trade.
Mr. Negro, when von meet the mule
Let it be far or near.
Say, “Good morning, my creator,
I am glad to meet you here.”

THE WRONG KIND OF li.
Roy Groves on a spring day
bet a hen in a, brand new way,
He covered a box with tinsel gay,
Lined it snugly with new mown hay,
Fil.ed it nicely with eggs and then
Started to look for a likely hen.
Out of the flock he selected one,
Then he thought his work was done;
It would have been but this stubborn
hen
Stood up and cackled “ka-dool!” and
then
Roy came and in hurt surprise
Looked, pooly in the creature’s eves;
Then, tied its legs to the box, “you
bet
1 know how to make you set.”
But still it stood, and worse and
worse,
Shrieked forth its wrongs to the uni

Kicked over - ■ box with tinsel gay,
And ignonnn.' My Happen way.
