J. H.

I , have used a great many medicines, but Doan's Kidney Pills have done me more good than anything else. I haven't had an attack of this i trouble for some time." i OVER SIX YEARS LATER Mr. Cox said: "It has been a long time since I have had any occasion to take a kidney medicine. I consider Doan's Kidney Pills a good, reliable medicine for backache and kidney disorders." 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Mil-. burn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. IDEAS HARD TO ERADICATE Erroneous Geographical Notions That Have a Firm Hoid 011 the Minds of Most People. It is curious to note with what per sistency people will adhere to current ideas without ever thinking that those Ideas do not, under nil circumstances, denote one and the same thing. As a matter of fact, the maximum heut is "between" North and South viz, along the equator, and it is as cold at the South Pole as at the North Pole. Also the words North and South are as rela tive terms ns East and West, and do not, to everyone, convey the same Idea. To make this clear, let us supposf that A stnnds at the North Pole and, turning in the direction of the country from vliich he came, feels the wind blowing in his face. He would, of course, claim that this wind wus south erly, and nobody would dure contradict him, for does not the wind come from Norway, which is south from the Pole? His companion, B, however, who stands a little distance further off, let us suy CO steps beyond the Pole, on the hemisphere on which America is situ ated, will Just as emphatically assert that this wind is northern, as It blows from the North Pole, and the snow flakes it carries after having passed the polar point no longer are directed toward the North, but the South. There is no use disputing; both are right and, although, separated by a few steps only, that which to A Is north la to B south. .
