Five Little Glimpses of Franc E. Willard. Boys and girls like pictures, am wish we had five real pictures Frances Willard as a little girl; tl we could show them to you and 1 you pretty stories about them. 1 want all the boys and girls in this 1 world to know what kind of lit girl .Frances Willard was and w everybody loves her. Perhaps if tell you five little stories about h you will try to remember them a let them be like five little pictures your mind to think about. In the first picture Frances is c of doors at Forest Home, near Jam ville, Wisconsin. Forest Home where she lived twelve years frc the time she was seven years ol Here with her brother Oliver ai sister Mary she was as happy as .bird. She loved Rock River that ri pied merrily near her home; lovi the pastures and woods, the butte cups, daisies and clover blossom and the sweet-smelling pinks in hi mother's garden, and she would- ki the fragrant mosses and violets wht they came back again after a slet under the winter snow. She help? her father plant a long, long row < evergreen trees opposite their coui try home. She studied his botan; and he showed her how to use the m croscope while she peeped into ti hearts of her favorite wild-flower As she wanted to know everything she asked her father and moth? questions about all that she could nc understand, and talked of God an the wonder world He had mad< Sometimes when lying in the mids of the cornfield to listen to the rus tie of the silky tasseled tops, sh would.reach her hand up toward th sky hoping that God would touch il Frances Willard loved God an the beautiful world He has given u to enjoy. In the second picture let us watcl Frances at play. The three childrei at Forest Home were taught by thei wise mother to make toys and to pla: games which would help them livi right and useful lives. Their greates fun was when they made believ< they lived at Fort City. They laid oui streets, planted trees and built ? bank and a postoffice. Frances wa; the mayor, and they had a Board oi Trade, a daily paper, a tax gatherer and two volumes of law to govert the city. Frances Willard learned a greal many useful things while she romped and played. In the third little picture let us look at Frances with her pets gather ed about her. A droll collection you will agree: Fido the dog, Trudge the maltese kitten, Dime the heifer, Semmie the lamb, Sukey the pig, Stumpy the poor little lame chicken, Roly-Poly the tame mouse, alnd Beauty and Brighty the dear little rabbits. , Frances Willard dearly loved her * pets and was always kind to every living thing. Our fourth picture of little Fran ces is when she marched with her brother and sister, and Fido the dog, in a Fourth of July procession. Her little heart was full of love for our country, and she wanted to carry a flag. Her mother helped to make one, and the little girl waved it proudly aloft, although it was only a pillow case, with red calico stripes, and with gilt paper stars in the corner. Frances Willard was a patriotic, peace-loving little girl and began when a child to march for her coun try. There are so many pictures I should like to show you of Frances Willard as a little girl that I hardly know which one to choose for the fifth and last, but think you will want to know if she cared about tem perance before she grew up and be came the most famous temperance worker among the women in the world. This shall be our last picture. In the big family Bible at Forest Home Frances' mother carefully wrote a temperance pledge, and after father and mother had signed it, the children wrote their names-Oliver, the eldest, first, then Frances, and lastly our dear little Mary. This is the pledge: A pledge we make on wine to take, Nor brandy red that turns the head, Nor fiery rum that ruins the home, Nor whiskey hot that makes the sot, Nor brewer's beer, for that we fear, And cider too, will never do To quench our thirst we'll always bring Cold water from the well or spring; So here we pledge perpetual hate To all that can intoxicate. When the children were making Fort City, the first thing they agreed to after naming it was it should have no saloons and no billard halls, and, of course, it would need no jail. In a small school house, built for the Willard children and those from neighboring farms, Frances,-enjoyed the singing, for she had a rich mu sical, contralto voice. One song she liked better than all the others, and when the children sang it the rafters seemed to ring with the echo of their words, "God Speed the Right." THAT DULL ACHING. Don't worry and complain about a bad back. Get rid of it! For weak kidneys, lame and achy backs, your neighbors recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. Read this statement. Mrs. H. W. Hair, 405 Gully Row, Edgefield, says: "My kidney trouble came on gradually and I suffered torture with my kidneys. My kidneys were congested and my limbs and an kles swelled and were so painful I couldn't stand on my feet. My back was weak and painful and there was a steady , dull misery over my kid neys. Some days I was able to do a little work but I often had to 'give up and rest. My sight was affected and spots floated before my eyes. I had headaches and was run down and my nerves were unstrung. Doan's Kidney Pills helped me a great deal. Two boxes of Doan's gave me relief and it has been a number of years since I have had a spell with my kidneys." 60c, at all dealers.

"I would suffer, when 1 stood on my feet, with bearing-down pains in my sides and the lower part of my body. I did not rest well and didn't want anything to eat. My color was bad and I felt miserable. A friend of mine told me of The Woman's Tonic and I then remembered my mother used to take it.. . After the first bottle I was better. I began to fleshen up and 1 re gained my strength and good, healthy color. I am feeling fine. 1 took twelve bottles (of Cardui) and haven't had a bit of trouble since." Thousands of other women have had similar experiences in the use of Cardui, which has brought relief where other medicines had failed. If you suffer from female ail ments, take Cardui.
