CRYING FOR HELP.
Lots of it in Honey Grove But Daily
Growing Less.
The kidneys cry for help.
Not an organ in the whole body
so delicately constructed.
Not one so important to health.
The kidneys are the -filters of
the blood.
When they fail the blood be-
comes foul and poisonous.
There can be no health where
there is poisoned blood.
Backache is one of the first
indications of kidney trouble.
It is the kidney's cry for help.
Heed it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are what
is wanted,
Are just what overworked kid-
neys need.
They strengthen and invigor-
ate the kidneys; help them to do
their work; never fail to cure any
case of kidney disease.
Mrs. L. J. Mayers, 1816 W.
Tenth St., Bonham, Texas, says:
About two years ago I began to
hove a constant pain in my back
and hips, accompanied by a diffi-
culty with the kidney secretions.
My daughter, hearing of my
trouble, advised me to try Doan's
Kidney Pills and I procured a
supply. The use of one box en-
tirely cured me and I am, there-
fore, glad to recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills as an excellent kid-
ney remedy."

Remember the name-Doan's-
and take no other.
The Last Fly.
The last fly of summer, which
ought to be dead, is fussing and
fooling around on my head.
Somehow he escaped from the
doom that befell the hosts of his
kindred; he's chipper and well;
he drills and he bores at my
scalp with a vim. Through all
the long ages, since Adam was
born, the fly has been with us,
an object of score; serene and
unchanging, he's buzzed through
the years, and left a long trail of
bad language and tears. H e
tortured the Pharaohs with
ticklesome toes, and lit for a
moment on Abraham's nose. The
great men of legend, the heroes
of fame, all cussed the poor fly
and his innocent game, they
swatted and trapped him, and
chased him away—the desire of
the fly that is with me today.
Men change in their customs,
appearance and ways; a monar-
chy thrives for a while and de-
cays; the things of the world are
all given t o change, today's
things, familiar, tomorrow are
strange; but flies never change
as the ages roll on; they're just
the same now as they were at
the dawn! they tickle and torture
with pestilent toes, they plow up
your scalp and fool with your
nose. The last fly of summer
no sympathy gains; I chase and
o'verwhelm him, and knock out
his brains.—Walt Mason.
Sang at Own Funeral.
We hear now and then of a
man reading his own obituary in
the papers, but it is a rare thing
for a dead man to sing at his
own funeral. Pietro Ficco, a
shoemaker and amateur musi-
cian, had a very great fondness
for the phonograph. He pur-
chased a good many records and
occasionally sang into his own
phonograph and kept records of
the songs. He was taken seri-
ously ill. He realized that he
could not recover, and being a
poor man and unable to get up
much of a funeral he requested
that they use his phonograph to
furnish the music for the funeral
services. He picked out the
Angel's Serenade and Gounod's
Ave Maria, sung by himself, and
these were used, and thus the
dead man took an important part
at his own funeral service.
He instructed that his phono-
graph and seventy-two records,
a number of them his own, should
be sent to his mother in Italy.
Scrofula disfigures and
causes life-long misery.
Children become
strong and lively when
given small doses of
Scott's Emulsion
every day. The starved
body is fed; the swollen
glands healed, and the
tainted blood vitalized.
Good food, fresh air and
Scott's Emulsion con-
quer scrofula and many
other blood diseases.

Woman's Love and Hate.
Women, as a class, are invalu-
able, and I do not see how the
world could well get along with-
out them. A good woman is the
best thing in the world, and a
mean woman is the meanest
thing on earth, and hence wo-
men make the best lovers or
haters. When a woman really
loves she knows no bound to her
devotion to and her sacrifice for
the object of her love. She may
love a human being that no sane
person would give 10 cents for,
but he is the one object of all
objects to her, and she will run a
boarding house, toil and deny
herself, to keep him up, and give
him more clothes in a season than
he would earn in a lifetime. She
will love him, brag on him, and
in her delirium of love lull her-
self into the dream that every
other woman in the land wants
husband. About the most jeal-
ous woman I ever saw was jeal-
ous about the homeliest specimen
of the masculine gender I ever
put my eyes on,, with manners
about in keeping with his looks,
and no other woman but this
jealous lover would hardly have
taken him unless he was the last
chance to keep her from being a
hopeless old maid.
Yes, a woman is the best lover
on earth, and yet a woman is the
best of haters when she really
hates. A man may hate his fel-
low for a time, and yielding to
evidence may change his mind
about his enemy, but not so with
a woman, for with her love and
hate are alike changeless under
any development, and in either
the average woman will suffer,
wait, and act when the time
comes for action, with changeless
devotion or revenge.
Ahab had no use for Elijah,
and hated him, until Elijah tri-
umphed at Carmel, and brought
rain unto famishing Israel, and
then he gave the prophet the
place of herald, to run before his
chariot; but Jezebel never chang-
ed, and when Elijah „came to
Jezebel her hate flamed out in
threat of death to Elijah, and
wise man that he was, he never
stopped running until he had put
seventy-five miles between him
and a woman afire with the burn-
ing heat of hate. Seventy-five
miles is about the right distance
for anybody to get from a woman
who hates him* and has the pow-
er to satisfy it, and if any change
in distance is made, to be one of
safety just make it a little
greater.
When John the Baptist rebuked
Herod and Herodias for living in
unlawful wedlock, they both
were mad, and Herod threw
John into prison, but afterwards
felt more kindly toward him, but
the hate of Heronias- never abat-
ed, but waited for an opportunity
for revenge. When her daugh-
ter, Salome, danced before Her-
od and pleased him so that he
promised anything, even to the
half of his kingdom, Herodias
persuaded Salome to satisfy her
hate and ask for the head of
John the Baptist in a charger.
A woman's hate was greater
than even her thirst for dominion,
and only the white face of the
man who had rebuked her in her
sin could satisfy her insatiate
hate. If you get a woman mad
at you there is hope reconcilia-
tion, but if you get a woman
right down mad at you, you had
better flee as did Elijah, or pre-
pare to suffer the fate of John
the Baptist, if the woman ever
lias the opportunity to have your
head cut off.
Mournful alike have been the
chapters of human history writ-
ten under the influence of wo-
man's love and hate, marking
the extremes of her possibilities
under certain conditions, and
many a woman today loves on in
hopeless devotion and sacrifice,
or hates on in patient waiting
for revenge, impossible to men,
simply because a woman con-
cludes, as a rule, through inui-
tion, and throws her all into het
balances of life, while man never
goes beyond his reason in things,
in colder selfishness, both in his
best piety or meanest passion.
The result is that woman, in
the great swirling of the stream
of human life, experiences suffer-
ing more than men, for with her
it is ever the gentle flow of the
stream amid the quiet groves of
trusting love, or the rush of an-
gry waters over the falls of hate.
—Rev. W. T. Balling.

Old lack Hen is Dead.
The most noted hen in the
world is dead. She was known
as the famous black hen of
Maine and belonged to Capt.
Daniel Tarbox. She was 21
years old at the time of her
death. Her owner kept count
and found that his hen had laid
more than 4,000 egg3. She had
other claims to distinction, how-
ever, than her ability to lay, for
it was long claimed for her that
she could whip anything that
wore feathers. She had no sym-
pathy whatever with Teddy
Roosevelt's anti-race suicide
views, as all her life she stead-
fastly refused to raise a family.
The last egg this wonderful hen
laid was the day after Maine
went Democratic in November.
This egg was very large, almost
as large as a goose egg, but the
hen never felt well after her
contribution to the Democratic
victory, and last week she passed
away.
Another Bank Failure in the West.
The Farmers and Merchants
National Bank of Anson, Texas,
closed its doors last Friday and
the Bank Examiner took charge.
This is the second bank failure
announced in the West recently,
the Quanah National bank hav-
ing closed its doors only a few
days before. Short crops and
heavy speculation are responsible
for the suspensions.

Failed in Health
"My mother died six vears ago," writes Miss Ruth
Ward, of Jerseyville, III., 4 and left me to care for six
children. I had never been strong; and this, with the shock
of her death, was too much for me.
"I failed in health. I was tired all the time and did
not want to go anywhere, nor care for company. I had
the headache all the time and such bearing-down pains.
"A very dear friend advised me to take Cardui, as it
had done her so much good, so I commenced to use It
and now I am in good health."
