Henry's father was a lieutenant
in the navy and frequently absent
n cruises of a year or more, there
fore the boy had not the privilege
of a very extended acquaintance
with his parent. When the selec
tion of a school for Henry was be
ing made, it was suggested that it
might be well to learn his father's
preferences.
"Aw, what do we want to ask
him for?" inquired Henry.
"Why, my son, he is your
father," said his mother reproving-
ly.
"He's only my father by mar
riage." replied Henry in scorn.

Our exports in 1905 of American
farm, orchard, forest, mining and
fisheries products and factories
amounted to Si, 626.000,000, an
average of $5,420,000 a day for 300
working days, and seventeen times
as much as in 1905.
When the parliamentary writ for
the recent elections arrived at
Doverthe other day it was saluted
with three blasts from the ancient
"burghniote" horn. Why? Be

Cleofas Vasquez, Chef at the
New Constantine Hotel, Corpus

used Doan's Kidney Pills I was

attacks of pain in my back, i s&

the spells and had to lay off from
work for a weekior two at a time. v

did it caused a pain in my back
which almost doubled me up. I
tried several remedies but was not
until I got Doan's Kidney Pills
that I found one to give me relief.
I think so much of this remedy
that I keep it on hand all the time
and it is the first thing I would
use in case of a return of .the
trouble."

countered, i

are held in a sort of general regard
as lawful prey by people who have
the chance to best them, and there
are many who do not hesitate tc
e long end of a
deal with them if possible. ,
As observed, human frailties
show stiongly in the limelight of
such a deal. Avarice, greed, cun
ning, trickery, may be detected
beueath the surface in many of the
transactions, and it is such that
brings to the strongest contract the
act of conscience referred to.
