Tie windy eveiling drops a gray
Old eyelid down acro*M the bud.

A doubtful thrush makes hurrtod

Her random pictures through

Where the arbutua grows.

LEAP YEAR
The custom which ordains that
a woman may propose marriage to
a man in leap year dates back
seven ot eight hundred years. An
act of the Scottish parliament,
passed about the year 1228, mado
it a crime punshiablo by a fine' for
an unattached man to refuse to
become the Ufa partner of a wo
man who had the courage to
"speak ye mon she liked!"
The custom in a milder form
referred to in a work published
in 1606, entitled "Courtship, Love
and Matrimony.'"

A merciless Judge is Father Time.

ing statement haa withstood this
sternest of ail tests.
Johu Carpenter, 501 N. Stanton
St. El Paso, Texas., says; "I had
pains iu my back, especially when
I arose from a. sitting position or
made a sudden move. The kidney
secretions were profuse at times
ind then again scanty and con
Lalned a brick-dust sediment. Dur
ing cold weather, they were too
frequent in passage. Doan's Kid
ney Pills entirely relieved me of
the trouble." (Statement given Feb
ruary 4, 1907.)
LASTING RESULTS
On June 10, 1915, Mr. Carpenter
saij: "i aavea't been troubled by
my kidneys in some time and feel
ihat Doau's Kidney Pill3 have
brought about this healthy condi
tion of my kidneys."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—

that Mr. jCarpenter has twice pub
