JAMES J. CONWAY, 627 Atlantic Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y., August 20,1004, wrote: “ About two years ago I began to notice dull pains in my back ami head. I had perlods of great weariness ami lack of energy. Some days I’d feel fine; others, oppressed and out of sorts. The doctors admitted they didn’t know w hat ailed me, but gave me something and said I’d be all right in a day or two. “ However, I got no better an«l began taking advertised medicines,but without result. Finally I insisted upon knowing just exactly what was the matter with me, and the doctors made a thorough examination and declared 1 had a deep seated case of Bright’s disease. Their treatment had no effect, so I determined to place myself in the hands of the W arner Safe Cure doctors, who analyzed my urine and found my kidneys in a critical condition. everything else and began taking Warner’s Safe Cure. It did An Involuntary Hero. "Speaking of war incidents,’’ said a veteran newspaper iflan, “a friend of mine in West Virginia who wore the Union blue in the Civil was was the principal actor in an affair that was unique. He was promoted from cap tain to colonel for "bravery In the face of the enemy,” when as a matter of fact he was brave on the occasion which brought about his promotion lecc.use he could not help it. It was a case of bravery being actually forced ;p >n him, against his will. “It appears that the Union troops of which the captain’s company was a part had become demoralized to some extent by the fire of the Con federates, and the soldiers were scat tered over the battlefield in squads. The captain had secured a stray horse, and soon after mounting the strange animal an orderly dashed up to him and said: “ ‘The general commands you to charge your men and take those works in front of your line.” "Turning to the scattered troops the captain sang out: Savings Bank Romances. (Wm. S. Power in Success.) A ragged little newsboy entered a Pittsburg bank one day and boldly in vaded the private office of the pres ident. “Say, mister,” ho said, “can I put some money in this hank?” “Certainly you can,” answered the president; “how much do you want to deposit?” “A quarter!” exclaimed the youngs ter, pulling a handful of pennies and nickels out of his pocket. The bank er took him over to the receiving tel ler and introduced him with all the deference that he, would have shown to a millionaire. The boy left the city soon after opening the account, but he kept ad ding to his deposit from time to time, and as he was naturally bright and shrewd everything he undertook pros pered. He is back in Pittsburg now, the head of a successful manufactur ing concern and one of the bank’s most valued customers. * * * Overworked KIDNEYS Murruy’N litif-lin.

(New York Sun.) “Health fads, no doubt, have their uses,” said the manager of a fashion able restaurant, “but they are bad for our business. You would be surpris ed to know how many people go with out breakfast nowdays. They call it the fasting cure. Some limit their meals to one a day while taking the cure. They don’t touch food until the dinner hour, and then take a light meal. Others take a snack in the morning—probably a toasted biscuit and a cup of hot milk, and a fairly substantial meal without meat, late in the afternoon. People as a rule, do not eat as much as they did a few years ago. Many of the doctors ad vise light eating, and all the books and publications devoted to health and physical training berate over feeding. We still talk about a ‘square meal,’ but with some it has a, different meaning from what it once had.” the Hege Log Beam SAW MILL WITH Heacock-King Feed Works Enqinks and Boilers, Woodworking Machinery, Cotton Ginnino, Brick- MAKINQ AND S H I N O L E AND LATH Machinery, Corn Mills, Etc , Etc.
