WHOSE FAULT IS. II * LET TIMARU READERS DECIDE THE . QUESTION. When the fog horn warns the mariner to steer off the coast, if he still hug the shore and wreck upon it, whose fault is it? If the red switch light is up, and the engine-driv«r deliberately pull-ahead into' another train, blame the driver. If a careless workman will, in spite of warning, try to find out how many teeth a buzz saw has, and" the saw tries to find out how many fingers the man has, blame the workman,; not the saw. If Timaru people who have kidpey complaint and backache will not take Doan's Backache Kidney Pills when they are endorsed, by scores' of citizens, blame the people, not the medicine. Mrs Jn. Mcintosh, Wai-iti Road, this town, says:—"l fancy my kidneys were affected. I had a nasty, cutting pain across the small of my back, which 1 could not understand. - I was always worse when I went to bed, and it used to keep me awake. . The only way 1 could keep free of it was to keep moving about. Then I used, to get giddy and suffer from headaches. All these symptoms arose from the one cause, the kidneys. I used different medicines, but none of them proved the right thing, and then I go I Doan'.s Backache Kidney Pills. These pills are splendid. I Soon after I took them I lost all the pains, the giddiness, and the headaches. I can strongly recommend these pills to all who suffer as -I did. I got tliem : at Odaie's Pharmacy." Do not be satisfied with any imitation of Doan's Pills ; see that the word " Backache "is in the name. Imitations are worthless as well as disappointing. ... If you suffer with backache or kidney trouble use Doan's Backache Kidney Pills. They are sold by all chemists and store keepers.,at 3s per box (sis boxes 16s 6d), or will be posted on receipt of price by Foster-MeCiellan Co;/, 76 Pitt street, Sydney, X.S.W. But be sure they are Doan's. Mjpummu ii mi mini——m : HOW TO INVENT. (By Thomas A. Edison.) Mr Edison writes as follows :—" How do I got about inventing a contrivance? Well, everything requires different treatment. I go at it in every Way that 1 can think out. This multiplied attack soon simmers down until I get .a comjjosite idea, something which is a combination of all that I have thought of, or else the one feasible idea which seems to discount all the rest. Having once got started on what I thnk is the right track I keep up the pace until the goal ds reached. The only thing therefore, J can siy to .the young inventor is to go and do likew-se. There is one piece of advice I can give however, when a man starts to invent-, let him do so with his mind free from till knowledge of what has bean done already in the particular field lie is investigating. For instance, if I am about to work out something, I never read upon it, nor do I inquire■ what has been done on it by other inventors. Knowledge of ibis kind is almost certain to prove a-snag in the path of the inventory Ke gets into the cut made by his predecessors, and stops where they are stopped." .The above remarks from Mr Edison are supplied us .by Henry Hughes, patent agent, Christchurcli, the oldest established firm of pa'ent agents in the colony. Air- J. E. S. Jackson, Stafford street, is the Timaru representative for Air Hughes, from whom all information relating to patents and trademarks may be obtained on application free of cost. ...
