all the deep, sweet, rich Tone, captivates performer and lis

BEST IN THE WORLD !!
Mrs. Helen M. Staker, 244 Grand Are., Aurora. 111., says: -'I cannot find words in the
English language to express my appreciation to you for having sold me such a beautiful in
strument. I really think it is the most beautiful case I ever saw, and the tone is simply
grand. I shall be glad to give you any testimonial, as I think the Lombard should take the
lead."
Rev. Geo. Doubleday, Pres. Corpus Christi College, Galesburg, 111., savs: "We are using
the Lombard in our College work at Corpus Christi, and it is a pleasure to recommend it. It
is a beautiful instrument with a deep, sweet, rich tone." '
# J. W. Purviance, Editor McNairny County Independent, Selmer, Tenn.. says: "The instru
ment (Lombard Piano) fills our most sanguine expectations. It is not only a rare beauty in
its outward finish, but the tone is round, full, rich and sweet. Your firm has proven to be
prompt and reliable in its dealing's with me."
J. Ernest Paxson, Editor Press. Parkersburg, Pa., says: "I must say that the Lombard
sent me is a beautiful instrument, aud a credit to a standard firm. We are more than satisfied.*

Ufter a careful and comprcheusive trial of the Lombard by manv musical artists of Washing
ton. that it stands second to none, regardless of price or make. ' Every one who has tried thia

Danger in Delay.
Kidney Diseases Are Too
Dangerous For Franklin
People To Neglect.
The great danger of kidney troubles
is that they get a firm hold before the
sufferer recognizes them. Health is
grandually undermined. Backache,
headache, nervousness, lameness,
soreness., lumbago, urinary troubles,
dropsy, diabetes and Bright's disease
follow in merciless succession. Don't
neglect your kidneys. Cure the kid
neys with the Certain and safe reme
dy* Doan's Kidney Pills, which has
cured people right here iu this
locality.
Tony Acurso, of Morgan City, La.,
says: "My back was so painful that
it seemed as if it would break iu two.
If I stooped or brought any strain on
the muscles of my loins i suffered in
tensely. The least sudden movement
caused sharp pains to dart through
my body and if l contracted a cold,
it "settled in my kidneys, aggravating
my trouble. No relief was found
until I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills
and procured a box. They entirely
rid me of all pains and lameness in
my back and I felt well until about a
month after when as the result of a
strahl l felt a return of backache,
Doan's Kidney Pills, however, quickly
removed the attacks aud from that
time on there has never been a sign
of kidney trouble. There is no mis
take about Doan's Kidney Pills being
an excellent kidney remedy."

Provides for Postal Exigencies.
The Postoffice Department
has met with great embarass
meut in certain localities
where labor lias been scarce
and wages high owing to
land rushes, mining excite
ment or other causes, because
of its inability to secure as
sistance in handling the
mails at prices within the
limits of the appropriations.
The committee on postoffice
and postroads lias approved
a bill authorizing the Post
master General to meet such
conditions by paying higher
compensation to clerks and
carriers when unusual local
conditions mak* it necessary.
There is a fund of $125,000
out of which such payments
may be met.
The necessity of some such
authorization as the one ask
ed for is evidenced by the
experience of the Depart
ment at Goldfield, Nev.,
when it was necessary for a
time to pay clerks $5 a day;
at Butte, Mont., where the
pay was thirty cents an hour,
at Fairbanks, Alaska, where
the salary allowed by law
was $600 a year and the low
est salary at which a clerk
could be had was $2,000.
"Nobody is going to poke
out a good eye for the sake
of getting a glass eye," said
the city salesman, "but I
know a man who makes
money on his glass eye. He
goes to Europe three times a
year on business. While
there lie does a little trading
in jewels as a side line. It is
on the homeward trip that
he turns his glass eye to good
account. In the cavity back
of it he carried two or three
small but valuable diamonds.
Half the duty saved is his
commission on those stones
alone. The customs inspec
tors have never got on to
him. Naturally they can't
go around jabbing their fin
gers into people's eyes."
Till! Gnal I reailiniî llmvii the Little.
Five hundred years ago
John Ball, looking out over
England, tolls us that he
saw "the great treading
down the little, the strong
beating down the weak, and
cruel men fearing not, and
kind men daring not, and
wise men caring not," and
then with his heart burning
within him, lie cries aloud,
"and the saints in heaven
forbearing, and yet bidding
me not to forbear."
If we compare our time
with his, we will admit that
although the great still tread
down the little, and the
strong beat down the weak,
that the cruel are at last
becoming afraid of public
opinion, that kind men are
more daring in their schemes
of alleviation than they used
to be. and wise men are more
solicitous.—Jane Addams at
the Conference of Charities
and Correction.
The Hatpin Evil Solved.
There is a good deal of
selfishness in the way that
women run men through
with their hatpins in crowd
ed conveyances. I have
sometimes thought that I
would fill my pockets with
little corks, and whenever a
pinpoint was about to enter
my optic nerve I would stick
a cork on the pin and thus
render it innocuous. It could
be done with all the forms of
the most rigorous politeness.
Just say to the lady whose
j >in you are dodging: ' 'Please
hold your hat still for a mo
ment. The operation will
be perfectly painless." Then
clap on the cork, remove your
hat, smile pleasantly, bow,
and the incident will have
been closed.—Charles Batteil
Loomis in Smith's Magazine.
Australia's last drouth
lasted seven years, and there
never has been one like it
since Australia was settled.
At the beginning of this dry
spell there were twenty mil
lion sheep in Queensland,
and when the rains came only
seven million were left, the
dry spell ending in 1903, and
to-day there are as many
sheep as ever. In these
seven seasons the flocks have
trebled themselvs. Fortunes
have been made since those
years of disaster at a single
run, and an irrigating lesson
has been learned that will
minimize their terror if they
should come again. In the
interior of Queensland the
yearly average of rainfall
sinks to below ten inches;
rivers are scarce, creeks are
few, and in summer dry up
to a chain of water holes.
Imperial statistics show
that in Germany the total
number of accidents increas
ed from 5.30 per 1,000 per
sons in 1898 to 6.77 per
1,000 in 1907.
