Vongeaiice of._the Vile Match.

The long suffering victims who attri-
bute alarge percentage of the marks
against their names in the recording
angel’s black books to the unspeakable
duplicity and perversity .of the Ameri-
can parlor match are likely to give way
to more than [ghoulish glee over the
news that one of the far from heavenly
places in which American matches are
made, took fire and burned with an en-
tirely uncelestial fierceness. They will
laugh. to scorn the assumption that any
criminal or extra-factorial aséistance
was necessary for the destructionot the
premises. A match, on being struck,
is guaranteed to light half a dozen
places at once, including the gas, the
striker’s fingers, his clothes' the bureau
covering, the furniture and anything
within a five feet radius, may well be
trusted to turn some day and plague its
unnatural inventor. And this, no
doubt, it has done. What this country
needs, for the suppressmn of profanity
the reduction of the death rate and
the prosperity of both life and fire in-
surancdcompanies, is another and en-
ormously better quality of match than
is now forced on consumers. Nature
mlf revolts against a match that re-
volts against the place of its own birth
sufficiently to burn it down. .

No Baihes Law Chhuges.

NEW YORK, March 1.—At}" a. caucus in
Senator Elect Platt's apartments in the
Fifth Avenue hotel the Republican leaders
decided that any material amendment of
the Baines liquor tax law during the
present session of the legislature would be
inexpedient. The decision was not reached
until after a long and excited discussion.
It was decided to adjourn the legislature
on April 15 or as near that date as possi-
ble. '

Republican Triplets.

PITTSBURG, March 1.—-McKinley, Ho-
bart and Hanna Hard are triplets born c
Mr. and Mrs. Louis Hard of Carnegie yes-
terday, and the mother and the three sons
are doing well. Mr. Hard is the proprie-
tor of the Miners’ hotel, a house owned by
his father 40 years age.

HOME SECRETS. ‘_

Mothers Keep Them; But,
With a Little Light, There
Need Be None.

How carefully mother guards .Ihe
secrets of her boys and girls. At night
as she carefully tucks the bed clothes
round them shevchides and warns that
mother will be angry if they repeat
last night’s, ofl'ense softly saying to her-
self it’s only a habit, but I must break
them of it. This is mother’s mistake.
The children cannot help it, and sweet,
clean dry beds can be the resting place
of every child when it is understood
that the cause is not a habit but a weak-
uses that can be cured. Active life of
the little ones tends to weakening the
kidneys and weak kidneys mean ina-
bility to retain the urine.
condition not a habit, and should have
the same prompt attention you would
give to the marked symptoms of any
disease. One Dean’s, Kidney Pills,
taken twice a day and at bedtime, will
strengthen the kidneys of a child, and
in a short time there will be no cause
to scold, for the so-called habit will
disappear promptly. Here’s a grateful
mother that adds her endorsement to
our words: ‘

Mrs. William Wood who lives at 130
Colony street, Merideii. Conn, says:
“My little boy of 10 years of age has
always been troubled With/Weakness of
the kidneis causing him to wet the bed.
So many mothers punish their children
for this, but I know he could not help
it. I read about Dean’s Kidney Pills
curingincontinence of urine in adults
and I thought they might help the
little iellow. I procured a box and
their use. pioduced a marked benefit at
once. It is very seldom he does it now
and I shall continue giving him Doan’s
K'dney Pills until the kidneys are
Ballad and strong. It is only out of

gratitude that'I permit publication but .

the trouble is a. very prevalent one and
most people from modesty or difildence
do not speak of it. Physicians do not
apear to be able to cope with the trouble
and I consider it a mother’s duty to
tell others about it when she has found
a specific for this terrible annoyance.

Doan’s Kidney Pills are for sale bv
all dealers, price 50 cents per box, 6
boxes for $2.50. Sent by mail on re-
ceipt of price. Foster—Milburn Co,
Bufi'ilo, N. Y , sole agents fur the
United States.

Remember the name Doan’s and take
no other.

 

Experience is the Only True Test.

F. A. Turner, of the State Insurance Ofu
fice, Salem, Orc., says: “Out of the scores of
cough medicines in the market tliei‘e is only
~me I have any confidence in and that is
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. I make this
statement after an experience of twelve
years’ use of this valuable remedy. For coughs
and colds it is splendid, but where its work
is infallible is with children subject to croup.

I keep it in my home at'all times.” For sale '
