Mrs Elizabeth Maxwell, of 415 Went Fourth Ht., Olympia, Wash., says: "bor over three vH years I suffered with a dropsical condition with out being aware that it was due to kidney trou ble. The early stages were principally backache and bearing down pain, but I went along without dropsy set in. worrying much until My feet and ankles swelled up, my hands puffed and be came so tense I could hardly close them. I had great diUicnlty in breath ing, and my heart would flutter with the least exertion. I could not walk far without stopping again and again to rest. Since using four boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills the bloating has gone down and the feelings of distress have disappeared." Sold by all dealers. 130 cents a box. FosUy-Mllburn Co., Buffalo, N.

PUIS. yers J ClltKBY PECTCSAL AN IMPERFECT WORK. After All, There la .No Orraaloa for Mn ii 'a Conceit. It I the general idea that man is a wonderful work a perfect work but, us Iliieckel and comparative anatomy IHiInt out. the human body Is, as a mat ter of fact, a structure at once Incom plete and redundant; a structure lack ing many necessaries and crowded with superfluities, with obsolete mus cles und nerves, which have become shriveled nnd paralyzed because there I no longer any use for them. It is amusing to think of improvements thst might be made In the human body, writes a pessimist. Take the eye. The two eyes are very good in their way, but if there were three of them bow much better it would be. If man Had an eye lu the back of his head, us certain insects have, he would never be run down, never be stabU-d from tieliind, never be kicked. Man, with three eyes, could see and do twice as much as now. The hair might well he improved. It Is poor stufT alongside of feathers. IKik at the beautiful feuther head dresses of the birds. These are far richer and brighter !;i hue than human hair, und they last. They don't dis appear. No one ever saw u bald bird. The pars ure not at all perfe-t. As the eyes are provided with lids, so that we can shut them tight when we want to sleep, so the ear should lie provided with movable flaps or stoppers where with to shut out sound. If the teeth endured there would be little fault to rind w 1th them. But, like the hair, they fall man long before the end of life. Hence It would be better If, like some bird, men had lndestruet llde teeth In their gizzards, and swnl lowed their food whole, letting the glz card grind It up gradually. This would not destroy the pleasure of eating. On the contrary. It would increase it. There would be nerves of tuste in the gizzard nnd thus the eating pleasure would be greatly prolonged. The food would be swallowed In a Jiffy, nnd afterward as man attended to his work, he would get for ninny hours pleasant tastes from the dainties the gizzard would be slowly und carefully grinding up. Not Keilured to That. The traveller through a part of New Hampshire where the stones seemed to be especially thick stopped to comment to her driver on a man who was at work in a field the surface of which was little more than a mass of stones of all sizes and shapes. "Yes. Jake's having a hard time of It," said the driver, who apparently knew every one In that region. "He's been at that field now for two years, off'if on. The wall ull came out of the ground, as you might say, and you see there's still consid'rable material left to work on." "I should think he'd be perfectly dis couraged, poor man. to own such n piece of property," said the traveller. "Oil, he doesn't own it. ma'am, Jake doesn't," said the driver, hastily. "Jake Isn't so poor as all that. It be longs to Squire Fnriium, and he's hired Jake to clear It, that's all." llouaeUeeplntr Xecesaary. The roomer in a London lodging house does not need to number the huirs of his head as a precaution against theft, but lie needs to keep careful ac count of everything else, gays a writer in Public Opinion. An actor who had discovered his landlady's propensity for taking a portion of everything he bought numbered and listed his things. One night he roused the household by shouting down from his attic a demaud for "number elgTTt." "Number eight?" shouted the land lady back. "What number eight?" "I want cube number eight of my lump sugar," he replied. Thenceforth the provisions In his cup- bourd were unmolested. Acronuteil For.

The man at the desk looked at him and then dropjied his eyes. "No," he said, shortly, "but I can tell you exactly where there's a call for Just such a man as you are." "Yes?" said the promoter. "I should b glad to hear of It." "It's up In Bank town, Vermont," said the Inventor.
