For sore throat, sharp pain
in lungs, tightness across the
chest, hoarseness or cough,
lave the parts with Sloan’s
Liniment. You don’t need to
rub, just lay it on lightly. It
penetrates insta ntly to the seat
of the trouble, relieves conges¬
tion and stops the pain.
Here’s the Proof.
Mr. A. W. Price, Fredonia, Kans.,
says: “Wehave used Sloan’s Lini¬
ment for a year, and find it an excel¬
lent thing for sore throat, chest pains,
colds, and hay fever attacks. A few
drops taken on sugar stops cough¬
ing and sneezing instantly."
Sloan’s
Liniment
is easier to use than porous
plasters, acts quicker and does
not clog up the pores of the skin.
It is an excellent an¬
tiseptic remedy for
asthma, bronchitis,
and all inflammatory
diseases of the
throat and chest;
will break up the
deadly membrane in
an attack of croup,
and will kill any kind
of neuralgia or rheu¬
matic pains.
All druggists keep
Sloan’s Liniment.

Women Suffer Agonies
from Diseased Kidneys
And Most Women Do This Not Knowing the
Real Cause of
These poor, suffering women
have been led to believe that their
misery of mind and body is entire¬
ly due to “ills of their sex.” Usually
the ‘kidneys and bladder are re¬
sponsible—or largely so. And in
such cases, the kidneys and blad¬
der are the organs, that need and
must have attention.
Those torturing, enervating sick
headaches, dragging pains in back,
groin and limbs, bloating and swell¬
ing of the extremities, extreme
nervousness or hysteria, listless¬
ness and constant tired, worn-out
feeling—are almost certain symp¬
toms of disordered and diseased
kidneys, bladder and liver.
DeWitt’s Kidney and Bladder
Pills have, in thousands of cases,
been demonstrated as remarkably
beneficial in all such conditions of
female organism—affording the
most prompt relief and permanent
benefit.
As an illustration of what these
Pills will do, Mrs. P. M. Bray of
Columbus, Ga., writes that she was
very ill with kidney trouble, and
that she is now well—and that
these Pills are what cured her.
They are very pleasant to take,
and can in no case, produce any
deleterious effects upon the system

Origin of Pajamas.
Jajamas are being interpreted sim¬
ply “leg garments.” They were eager¬
ly adopted by Europeans in India from
the Mohammedans, probably by the
Portoguese in the first place. Earlier
Anglo-Indian generations knew them
as “long drawers” or “mosquito draw¬
ers” and still earlier generations as
“mogul breeches,” under which name
they are referred to by Beaumont and
Fletcher. European improvers were
at one time in the habit of adding- feet
to these leg garments, but a certain
London tradesman was not at a loss to
find an outlandish reason for this addi¬
tion. ‘I believe, sir. it is on account of
the white ants.” he replied to an in¬
quiring customer.—London Graphic.
The Hub of the Body.
Tlie organ around which all the other
organ’s revolve, and upon which they
are largely dependent for their welfare,
is the stomach. When the functions of
the stomach become impaired, the bow¬
els and liver also become deranged. To
care a diease of the stomach, liver or
bowels get Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin.
It is tlio promptest relief for constipa¬
tion and dyspepsia ever compounded.
It is absolutely guaranteed to do what
is claimed, and if you want to try it
before buying, send your address for a
free sample bottle to Pepsin Syrup
Co., 116 Caldwell Bldg., Mouticello, 111.
It is sold by Spence Drug Co, at 50c and
$ 1.00 a bottle.
A Kick For Consistency.
The commuter -with a grievance open¬
ed the door of the general passenger
agent’s department, pushed aside the
boy at the railing and stalked up to
the chief clerk’s desk and relieved him¬
self as follows:
"Maybe I have no kick coming when
I go to the station on time every morn
ing for six weeks to catch the 8:08
train, only to find it from five to ten
minutes late—maybe i haven’t, I say.
But when I get there two minutes late
on the first morning of the seventh
week, only to see the rear end of the
train disappearing cityward, then, by
thunder, I have a large sized kick com¬
ing, and I’m here to register It!"—Ex¬

Her Lesson I
In Loving i
•
It Was a Severe One, but It J
Brought Her Happiness •
By LOUISE OLNEY
Copyright, 1909, by Associated Lit¬
erary Press.
After a good night so listless that
her mother sighed at the change in
her daughter. Anne Morton went to
her room and locked the door. Throw¬
ing aside her lace cloak, she turned on
all the lights and, tall, and graceful
in her clinging yellow gown, studied
herself In the mirror.
Richard Hunter had not asked for a
single dance, but had devoted himself
to Mollie Pierce. Anne began to real¬
ize that this had been the order of
things for some time. Morris Trevor
also had not come near. And only a
year ago, before she had broken her
engagement with Richard, there had
not been dances enough to satisfy her
admirers. Surely at twenty-seven a
woman has not lost the power to at¬
tract! Was she becoming a wallflow¬
er?
The mirror was reassuring. Her
fine brown gfres were large and clear,
her heavy dark hair perfectly arrang¬
ed, her oval face and small head cer¬
tainly distinguished. She smiled rue¬
fully, and a dimple deepened in her
cheek. But when her face fell to re¬
pose she noted critically that she look¬
ed bored, almost unhappy; the corners
of her mouth drooped and two cross
little lines showed between her eyes.
Anne began to take stock of herself.
Tonight she had actually sat out three
dances with the chaperons. She faced
the fact that her friends were becom¬
ing fewer; that the men called less
often. Invited her less often to share
their pleasures. “The girls” no longer
dropped in to gossip of clothes and
merrymakings and beaus. Yes, even
in the family things had changed. Her
mother, always loving, was also pa¬
tient. Harry, with the frankness of
fourteen, remarked, when she was ir¬
ritated with him, that she was becom¬
ing a cross old maid. Jean assumed
condescending younger sister airs.
She was quite sure that It was Rich¬
ard’s place to make the first move to¬
ward reconciliation, even though she
admitted to herself that the fault had
been mostly hers. At last she went to
bed and cried herself to sleep. But
she awoke early, so much earlier than
usual that, as she lay thinking, it came
to her that not for months had she
really seen her father, not for months
had she breakfasted with the family.
On Impulse she rose, took a cold
plunge and dressed for the street. She
had nearly finished when the rising
bell rang.
She stood nervously adjusting her
collar at the mirror, a little sensitive
about going down lest some member
of the family might comment on her
unwonted presence, when she noted
that she looked positively cross. It
made her seem old. She by an effort
made herself smile, and the dimple
again showed Itself. Then she started
for the door just in time to encounter
Harry, who was coming with an old
gong to awaken her. Yesterday she
would have complained to her mother;
today she laughed as he scampered
back to his room to finish dressing.
When she heard the breakfast bell
sbe started slowly downstairs, and as
she reached the lower hall she caught
her own name spoken by her mother
in an anxious tone. Involuntarily she
paused. Her father replied:
“Don’t worry, mother, Anne needs a
lesson in loving. She will have to suf¬
fer till she finds out that no woman
Is loved and sought unless she is lov¬
ing-lovable. Sbe will not be her old
attractive self till she stops being
bored and sarcastic and is pleased and
interested and shows that she is. She
is getting selfish, and nothing but
thinking of others will do her any
good.”
“But. Fred,” her mother’s voice con¬
tinued. “Richard never came near her

"Nonsense! Richard simply bad a
real man’s self respect. She dismissed
him for nothing, and I don’t blame
him for not crawling back like a whip¬
ped puppy. Perhaps he Is getting in¬
terested in Molly—a live young fellow

woman spoil life for him. He did care.
He told me himself when It first hap¬
pened that he was all cut up about it,
but that she would have to call him
back herself. She hasn’t done so.
Well, there is nobody like him. Yes,
another cup, dear, please.” Anne fled
softly back to her room, her cheeks
and, exes ablaze, iua .to. hrx. Jira.rt.
HffwHared fheyi 13ow' dared - They dls
cuss her affairs and side with Rich¬
ard! Then it came upon her that these
two dear persons, the dearest in the
world, loved her and had a right to
say to each other what they thought
about their own child.
And they were right—that was the
worst of it. What should she do?
After a moment's hesitation she went
quietly down and took her place at
the table, bidding them good morning
as if nothing bad occurred. Harry and
Jean came chasing each other down
the hall to join the family, and then
everybody seemed to begin talking and
laughing. In spite of herself Anue
became interested. She laughed, and
at her new good nature Harry offered
to play golf with her—supreme conde¬
scension on his part. She accepted.
Then as her father left his seat she
followed another impulse; she offered
to walk to the office with him for the
exercise. His eyes widened a little
with surprise, but they started off joy¬
fully together, father and tall daugh¬
ter, arm in arm. through the crisp au¬
tumn air the full mile downtown. It
was a good mile, and the air stung a
red stain into her cheek.
Leaving her father at his office, she
started back, remembering her "date”
on the links with her brother. Sbe
had an hour yet and was minded to
wander off by herself and think. At
heart she was still furious and a lit¬
tle fearful about Richard’s supposed
change of heart. Mollie Pierce, indeed!
That little silly doll! Yet stranger
things had happened. She suddenly
realized what a blank she had made of
her own life. She turned into a quiet
side street and walked swiftly along,
hardly seeing where she went. Once
she raised a hand to wipe her eyes—
they smarted strangely. Everything
was strange, especially this new. fear¬
ful wakening from the apathetic dream
she seemed to have been lost in for a
year. Of course it was too late for
Richard to forgive her. but at least she
could make it up to her dear family.
Remembering that she must meet
her brother, she suddenly turned a
corner and ran Into a big man Who,
from the impact, must have been com¬
ing along at some speed. She gasped
to see that it was Richard, as aston¬
ished as she. gazing at her as if he
had never seen her before, at her fresh
color, her bright eyes, the fugitive tear
on her cheek. He hardly knew what
he said, but she laughed merrily.
“I really did not intend to—knock
you down! I’m sorry, Dick.” She
called him Dick with manifest good
feeling. The man’s heart leaped as he
looked at her glowing face. He turn¬
ed to walk with her a little.
“Going home? You don’t look like
a girl who danced till 1 this morning,
Anne, I must say.”
“I sat out three dances,” she an¬
swered coolly. “Harry says I'm get¬
ting to be a cross old maid, is that
why you did not ask me for a waltz?”
“You have—refused me so many
times I began to accept my fate. I”—
“I’m—sorry—Dick.” She interrupted
him to say what she would not even
have thought a few days before. "I’m
sorry,” she repeated.
He turned to her eagerly. "Anne,”
he said in a low voice, “you could not
possibly cross your heart and hope to
die and say you are sorry for—any¬
thing else. Oh, Anne, could you?”
She only nodded an instant while she
Swallowed the remnant of her old
pride. He was looking down at her,
glorying in fier blush. Then she spoke
fully and freely, gladly.
“I treated you very badly, and I am
very sorry, Dick.” Her eyes, full of
tears, bravely met his gaze. Of course
Richard Hunter knew he could not
kiss her on the street, but he also knew
that it would not be long till they
reached her home. He knew, too,
that whatever demonstration he made
Anne’s mother would not care. He
bided his time. Meantime he and
Anne were very happy.
A Common Freak.
When P. T. Barnum was in the mu¬
seum business In New York one of his
most jovial friends was Gaylord Clark,
a famous litterateur in the days of our
fathers. They were a well matched
pair of practical jokers. One day when
Mr. Clark dropped in at the museum,
as was his etistom, Mr. Barnum. ap¬
parently much excited, hurried his
friend into the private office and ssn'd:
“Gaylord, 1 was about to send for
you. I want your advice. I have a
chance to purchase the .most wonder¬
ful of all zoological freaks. It’s at first
a perfect fish, then it changes to a four
legged land animal, then it climbs
trees and”—
“Bah! You’re joking,” interjected
Mr. Clark.
“On my honor I am not,” impressive¬
ly replied the showman. “But the ex¬
pense!”
“Oh, bang the expense!” interrupted
Mr. Clark, brimful of enthusiasm over
the business project of his friend. “If
you can get any such freak as that
yorft fortune’s made. But what’s the
thing called?”
“Well.” replied Mr. Barnum. with
just the faintest suggestion of a twin¬
kle in his left eye, “it belongs to the
batrachian family of animals and In
the vernacular is called the—the—tad
pole! ”
