Womea as Veil as Sen Are Bade Miserable by Kidney and Bladder Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear "when the kidneys are ^CTr~~" out of order or dis-. ? Kidney trouble has ll become so prevalent that it is not nncomm mksSWe mon for a child to be M \|^CVic? * Dora amictcu wiuu S25rm*mm' weak kidneys. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet* ting, depend upon it, thecause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of th^se 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 ss well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the satnq great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of |fe Simp-Root is soon realized. It is sold I / by druggists, in fifty- P7Snrr?? cent and one-dollar sfeebottles.

There are few people in this world who realize the many troubles and worries of a newspaper man. This fact is proven by the very little sympathy that they receive, and the very little consideration shown them. No person does more and receives less credit for what he does, than the poor men who make the press. From nearly every side they receive blame while from very few they receive credit for what they do. It is almost impossible for an editor to keep from offending some people, that is if he does his duty as a newspaper man. It becomes necessary some time for hiih to criticise, and as sure as ne aoes, way mere axe; some that he will offend. Of course this is much regretted by the man who wrote the criticism but he finds one consolation and that is the consolation of knowing that he has done his duty as he saw it. There are many people who seem to think an editor delights in criticising and being criticised. A more erronious impression could not have gotten out. There is not a man in the great press today we will venture to say, but what hates to be criticised or to criticise. Newspaper men are as human as anyone else. Very often men who have been lifelong friends have been enraged at one another by the publication of an article by one in a newspaper. If a newspaper man is true to his profession he will write any article that duty dictates even if it does make his beBt friend mad at him. This has often been done. At times it has been necessary for a man to criticise his own kinsman. This is all very hard to do but the noble newspaper man, true to his calling, will do it. Last week this paper saw fit to criticise a public official and fcr so doing brought the wrath of a < number of people down upon his head. Of course we regretted it but it could not be helped. There are those who accused this paper of being personally at outs with the man criticised. This is very wrong; we had not one thing against the man who we criticised, in fact did not know him personally. We merely saw his conduct and thought it needed scoring and we did so. It very often becomes the unpleasant duty of a newspaper man to do this and he must carry out his duty.?Anderson Intelligencer. We Guarantee Satisfaction. J. A. Brogdon, of the National Sign Oo.f Dayton, O., writes under date of Oct. 12,1906: "Nosena is the only preparation I have ever used that relieves my affection so speedily and pleasantly.

Goes on Reading Testimonials While His Better Half Continues Her Lectures?Cams Near Making a Full Confession. [Copyright, 1907, by P. C. Eastment.) Several little things had happened during tiie day to cause jjeacou jl?uiu/ to look forward to a seance after supper had been cleared away, and when the hour finally arrived he was as ready as he could be to take what was In store for him. He sat down in his rocking chair in the sitting room, pulled off his shoes and had been reading testimonials about a new patent windmill for ten minutes when Mrs. Dolby softly began: "Samuel Dolby, just after breakfast this morning you went to the barm Something was the matter with the "YOU JUMPED UP AND DOWN A2vD KICKED , THE PUMP." stable door. When it would not open you banged and kicked and muttered, and after five minutes you picked up a big stone and smashed at the door with ail your might At the same time you said something. I was too far off, and you saw me and didn't repeat It but I want you to tell me right here, now, what it was. Certain rumors have reached my ears, and I want to know If there is any truth In them. Did you say 'Pshaw r 'Sugar!* or?or?or did you make any reference to that place where bad people go when they die? I know how a door may bother and provoke a person. I had the kitchen door stick with me once, and I hauled off and kicked It and almost said something. You had on a collar that was choking you and was complaining of the earache when you went out, and if you really did forget yourself for once I can find an excuse for you. Throw yourself on my mercy, Samuel, and tell me what you said." Deeply Interested. The deacon had reached testimonial No. 4, and he became deeply interested . and forgot to ^answer the question. Had it been otherwise he might have been compelled to admit that his exclamation had neither "Pshaw!** nor "Sugar!" in it. Mrs. Dolby sat looking at a three-quarter view of him for two or three minutes and then continued: "At the dinner table today I asked you to pass the fried eggs. The plate was hot, and you burned your fingers and dropped it with a crash. It was bad enough to have the plate broken and the contents spilled over the tablecloth, but that was nothing to what you said. As the plate fell you yelled. As I didn't say anything at the time, you probably thought I didn't pay attention, but I want you to know that I did. Samuel Dolby, you are a man fifty-nine years old, a deacon of the church and supposed to be a living example before the world, and yet when you burned your fingers you yelled Thunderation!' Don't deny It, sir. I not only heard it, but I wrote it down on the pantry door -as soon as I got up. It will remain there as long as we live in this house, and I shall never see it without having cold chills go over me. "What have you got to say for yourself?" He had nothing whatever to say, but something like a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. He was thinking what he would have said had he stubbed his toe instead of burning his fingers. He could have defended the word "thunderation" as perfectly proper under all occasions of sudden excitement, but before he.had made up his mind to do so Mrs. Dolby went on: Fell Downstairs. I <1 1 i. O T ?^1- /N/1 .ill O O ClUCll lilis UilCiilUUU 1 tt5b.CU you to go up into the garret and get down my quiit frames while I went over to see Mrs. Green about fall pickles. Just as I returned you fell downstairs with such a clatter that for a moment I thought the house had been struck with a cyclone. I was so excited and I came so near fainting away that I don't remember what you said, but I know you yelled out at least four times. Samuel, I want you to tell me exactly what you said. It was something dreadful, but perhaps under the circumstances I can excuse it, and you can make a fresh start. I know that a fall downstairs is a sudden thing, and it is liable to throw even a deacon off his balance. Did one of your expressions refer to the bad place, Samuel ?" All four of his yells were directly connected with the locality mentioned, as he distinctly remembered, but the j deacon didn't propose to enter into any arguments or discussions. He had said what he had said, and if Mrs. Dolby had any doubts about it then all the better for him, and lie had made a safe escape of it. He tried his best to become deeply interested in testimonial No. C, which stated that the None Such windmill only needed the breath of a sleeping babe to set it in motion, and after heaving a few sighs over the general situation Mrs. Dolby brought forward the last offense. Shouted Three Different Times. "When I was ready to set about get ting supper I asked you to bring me in a pail of fresh water from the well. You went out with the pail, and I suddenly heard some one shout out. I went to the door and found you lying on your back on the ground. You had struck your toe against the soap kettle and fallen down. I didn't say anything, Samuel?not a word. I don't think you even saw me. I am not asking you what you said when you fell down, because I think it was 'Oh, my!' but what I want explained is what you said later on when you found the pump stuck fast. When you had worked away at the handle and the water wouldn't come you jumped up and down and kicked the pump and shouted, ' it, it, it!' three different times. I was having a chill, and my fingers were in my ears, and so I didn't catch the words, but I must know. You must confess to me and trust to me to forgive you if I can. What does a man say when he grabs the pump handle and jumps up and down and looks red in the face? If you don't speak right up and tel! me I shall think the very worst?that is, I do think the verv worst now. If one of the neighbors should run in to borrow some saleratus I don't know how I could look her in the face. I shall keep thinking and thinking after I get to bed, and there will be no sleep for me unless this matter is cleared up." But for a slight incident Mr. Dolbymight have entered into' a full explanation and had the whole thing over with. His eye caught sight of a shirt button on the floor, and he stooped and picked It up and gazed at It so long that Mrs. Dolby forgot the question she had asked and said: "And there's another thing, Samuel, while I think of it. A week ago one morning while you wa3 milking the cow she hauled off and kicked you. You went off the stool on your back and lay there for two or three minutes. Then you got up and pounded her with, the stool. Every time you pounded you said something. I was down cellar looking over the pickles and didn't hear it, but Mrs. Harrison says she saw and heard everything and didn't get over shivering until sundown. Wkat wag it you said? If you will throw yourself upon my mercy and tell me the truth, I'll agree not to apply for a divorce." The deacon laid down the circular as if he intended to make a full confession of the affair and depend upon Mrs. Dolby's wifely heart to forgive, but after a moment's thought he cnangea ms mina ana let nis eyes ran upon the last testimonial. It was only ten lines long, and he read it over three times, while she'waited for his answer amid deep silence. By and by he yawned and stretched and got up on his feet and, going over to the clock, he, wound It up and carelessly observed: "If you are going to make soft soap tomorrer, I guess we'd better get to bed a little early tonight."
