duxei.of one generation become the
accepted pollcie of the next England
la today giving thl needed tupport
to her "veteran of industry." The
dawn of the New Year, 1909, marked
a mcmcrable poch In the live of
thousands of Great Britain' old peo
ple, broken on the wheel of industry
but not dctpucd.
The blcning of thl money distri
bution can hardly be estimated.
VVIti'e no exact figure are yet ob
talnnble, the latest return from post'
office throughout the United King
dom and Ireland how that of the
690,027 claim received up to Decern
ber 31 lait, more than 500,000 penon
have been dealt with by th pension
officer. It 1 computed that for the
half-million claim thirteen ton of
liver wa required. In London
alone during the first week of Jan-
ary more than 30,000 pensioners re
ceived an average of $1.00. In Ire
land $250,000 wa paid to 150,000 aged
person, the lucceitful claimant in
Dublin numbering 4,500, roost of
whom received the maximum of 5
(hilling, to about $125.
Remarkable teenet have attended
the inaugural of the old age peniion
payment throughout England, Ire
land and Wale. Io London many
pathetic figures presented themselves
at the post-office, and ome of the
old folk were o overjoyed that they
brought with them present to the
sympathetic government official. In
several instance tbe Joy of the aged
recipients wa io great that they were
overcome by the excitement and have
fince died.
It was a wonderful tight,, this mar
shalling of the old folk to pay them
their benefit. No gathering of the
old can ever be devoid of Interest, but
how intensely interesting , wa one
made up of men and women who had
faced the world for seventy, eighty
and ninety year on slender incomes,
sometime facing starvation and those
declining days will thus be lifted from
object want. There were face among
them the roe of which contrasted
well with ilvery hair, and told of
country life. There were the sharp
, owq 'ji9p uo m jo s3bj
their bred perhap in the very heart
of London, and living the whole of
their live in the grim fight which
goe on without ceasing, in court, and
alley and treet, for the bard necess
aric of life. But they were all neat
and clean, and nearly all had that look
of contentment which come from
a mellowed outlook on the long road
the year through which they pas-
sed. :
I saw one old man of 87 wandering
along the street seeking the postoffice
at which he wa to draw his first pen
sion. He wa deaf and very feeble,
but nothing would do but that he must
come himself and draw his first mon
ey. The young woman who greeted
him from behind the post-office coun-

man make hi -mark, for he could not
write. Thi done lie put hi book
back Into hi pocket and hi money
into a much worn purse which he
carried; then assisting him to the
or while the other waited patient
ly, and bade him a cherry good-bye.
Curiam scenes were witnessed in
Ireland, where the old people were
immemcly pleased with their new
found wealth. At Calway old women
from the Claddagh Settlement got the
impression that in return for the pen
ion the government claimed the
;iher iUtt , h ,ict
assurance that their "hoy" would not
pen

prejudical to her rcligiou faith.llcre,
again, were two sisters, left alone in
the world year ago. They were both
nearlng 80 year, and 'had supported
themselves after a fashion by needle
work. But the struggle was fast be
coming impossible. Eyesight was
failing; work wa falling off. Bit by
bit the little household goods had pas
sed on to the pawnshop, A few week
more and there would have been noth
ing left but the workhouse and death
among strangers.
For them it wilt hereafter be ten
shillings every week. Why, it is
wealth bclond the dreams, of avarice.
The two little rusty wisps of bonnets
seemed to sit with something ap
proaching jauntlness on their silvered
head. The thin shawl were clasped
tightly round the thin old bodies, and
as they marched down the muddy
pavement surely there were not two
happier souls among all of King Ed
ward's million of subjects, rich or
poor,

"Throw out the life line"
The kidneys need help.
They're overworked can't get the
poison filtered out of the blood.
They're getting worse every min
ute.
Will you help them?
Doan's Kidney Pills have brought
thousands of kidney sufferers back
from the verge of despair.
Will cure any form of kidneys trou
ble. George K. Parish, 3721 E. Oak St.,
Portland, Ore., aya: "Not a ymp
torn of kidney trouble ha ever re
turned since I used Doan' Kidney
Pill tome year ago and I am pleased
to confirm the statement I gave in
their favor at that time, Prior to us
ing them, I auffered great deal from
dull, heavy pain in my back and kid
neys, thi trouble having resulted
from a severe cold. I was gradually
growing worse when Doan's Kidney
Pills were brought to my attention
and being impressed with the good
reports concerning them, I procured
a supply. As stated above they com
pletely disposed of my trouble."
