TOO MUCH WORK
For a Healthy Existence.-Thats
I why the Kidneys SO often Fail.

Nature has provided certain amount
OF work for every organ of the human
body; overtax them and disease eventu.
ally follows. There Is not one por-
ton of our organism that is so overworked
as the Kidneys; on them is placed the i'm
portant function Of filtering the blood of
the impurities which naturally form in the
regular action of life and digestion. The
kidneys are consequently termed the sew
erage of the system; clog up this sewer,
and the blood becomes tainted with poison.
Gus uric acid, which brings on disease
In many forms. The back is the first to
show this stoppage. From there comes
the warning note; it should be needed,
aud the kidneys receive prompt attention.
Doan's Kidney Pills will right the action
Of the kidneys quickly, relieve the back of
pains and aches, and cure all troubles of
kidneys and bladder. Read the following:

THE farmers of the state, says the II 3.

THE farmers of the state, says the II Al
Harrisburg Patriot, are showing some in
terest in the matter of salaries of public
officers and in some sections they have
agreed to support only such Legislative
candidates as will favor a general reduc-
ton
If the farmers will unite in this they
will accomplish practical reform. The
farmers can make a legislature of their
own if they really want to. They Ger
tainly can elect Legislature pledged to
reduce salaries and the cutting out of
unnecessary offices, in spite of the poll
ticians.
Public officials in this state are highly
favored. Very few of them have much
labor to perform, very few get, made
quate wages. The state officers located
at the capitol are especially INDUCED,
Throughout the administration of the
| predecessor of Governor Hastings sala-
ries were increased, sinecures created
and the work of each official lessened
In several instances corrupt bargains
were catered into between venal Re
publican Legislature and pledge-break
ing Democratic administration whereby
salaries were increased in exchange fol
other favors at public expense. Patti
son, Hensel, Harritv, all went into offic,
comparatively poor and emerged foul
years later as owners of extensive subur
ban farms, palatial houses, fine equipa
ges. holders of bonds and mortgage
and generally regarded as men o
unusual wealth. The present admins
tration expects to eclipse its predecessor
Whenever offices become desirable be
cause of their big salaries and their OF
portunities for making money they ar
most likely to be abused and misuseC
1t is not only wise economy but in th
interest of good government to hav
reasonable instead of extravagant sala
ries The farmers can make great an
needed reform in this respect if the
will.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
BiItru of by a Lion.

Chiilicothe. o, Aug. "a sight that
caused the blood of hundreds of people To
run cold was witnessed this afternoon at
the Rose comfy fair grounds on the edge
of the CITY. A ferocious lion bit offa
child's head in the presence of Its father
and mother. The county fair Is In pro-
gress this week, and among the attrac
tions is branch of Hagenbach' per
forming menagerie. At O'Clock this
afternoon the lion was tied to post and
Manager Hurd and wife were busily en-
gagged in caring for the crowds that were
clamoring TO get into the tent. Their 2
year-old boy, Eddie Hurd, had bee n
PLAYING about the front entrance, and
several times had ventured close to the
lion. Finally the child toddled within
reach of the lion, which suddenly crouch
ed, then let terrific roar and sprang on
his victim. In an instant the child s head
was entirely in the lions mouth. Many
people tainted, Others screamed. Man
ager Hurd rashed at the lion, seized him
by the head, pulled the beasts jaws apar' .
Then with one hand he seized his little
BOYS legs and snatched him from the
lions mouth. But it was too late. The
child was dead. The entire top of his
head was gone.

HoN. LEONARD RHoNE, of Bellefonte,
was interviewed on Tuesday by CORE
spondent. Mr.. Rhone is the master OF
the state grange. chairman of the execu-
tive committee of the national grange
and chairman of the legislative commit
tee, and is fully informed on the silver
sentiment among the farmers every
where He said:
The Republicans a. e entirely too self.
reliant and over-confident. They do not
realize that tremendous inroads into their
party are icing made every day The
farmers composing the grange will be al
most a unit for free silver, and even out
side the organization the great majority
will cast their votes for Bryan and the
Chicago platform. The sentiment is
not confined to agriculturists, but is
finding hundreds of advocates among
the largest manufacturing centres in the
Eastern states, among business men and
men in all the various professions.
He further predicts that the feeling
will continue to increase from now on
until November, and that the Democrat
ic nominees will be elected by one of the
largest majorities ever given national
ticket.

Hon. John A. Bingham, of Cadiz
one of the oldest Republican leaders in
Ohio, has bolted the ticket and will sup
port Bryan and Sewall. Mr.. Bingham
was leader in congress during the wal
and was United States minister to Japan
for eight years under President Grant
He represented the government in the
pre- sec dtion of Mrs. Surrat for compile
ity in the assassination of President Lin
coin and assisted the prosecution in the
impeachment of Andrew johnson.
Mr. Bingham was member of con
gress when the law demonetizing silver
was passed and voted for the passage OF
the law. He denounces the conspiracy
and trick by which it was done, and i:
equally severe on the enemies of com
mon honesty who are not in favor of un-
doing the wrong. Bingham is now one
of the most enthusiastic silver men in
the state, and will probably tender his
services to make several speeches in Ohio
during the campaign.

A Fusion Is Possible.

Columbus, o, August 5.-General A.
j. Warner. who was president of the
Democratic state convention, accompan-
led by Allen w. Thurman, called at the
secretary of states office to day and pre-.
pared certificate of the nomination of
the two electors at-large. The fact that
they did not include the whole state tick
ct, which was nominated by the same
convention, and will have to be certified
by the same officers, if it is certified at
all, is taken to indicate that a move
ment is on foot to fuse with the Popu.
lists. One state candidate of the Dem.
ocrats died since the convention and an
other, Judge f. ]. Blandin, candidate
for supreme judge, is known to wish to
be Withdrawn from the ticket. The
plan probably is to withdraw Bland
in and allow the Populists to nominate
members of their party for the two va
cancies. Upon this basis the leaders OF
the two parties will proceed to fuse on
the electoral ticket.

Without further ado, Dowling fired two
shots from his duck gun, both loads tax

but it is supposed Bowling has borrowed
grudge because Whitaker had bought
the farm. Mr.. Whitaker was 65 years
of age.

Objected 10 Siaying Buried.

Indianapolis. Ind, August 3 Pro
fessor Boone, well known hypnotist,
put J. j. Wyatt under his mysterious in
huence and announced that he would
bury his subject and revive him next
Friday after an interment of three days
Wyatt had previously consented to the
arrangement and the burial took place
at Fairview park last night at 1870, a
tube being passed down to where he lay.
He was buried four feet under The
ground and guard placed at the
''grave. Shortly before noon to- day
Wyatt came out from under the infiu
ence and realizing his situation began
screaming like wild man. He was
hurriedly dug up and it was some time
before he could be cooled down. He
protested against a second interment,
but Professor Boone soon got him un-
der control and Wyatt was again put
down in the earth. The experiment
is attracting much attention.

of letters received from every quarter of

to corrupt practices known to American
politics, which the gold standard inter
ests are threatening, shall avail to pun
chase the manhood OF the Republicans,

dent of the United States. He will car

CHICAGO. Aug. 5.-The speculative
deal in Diamond Match aud New York
Biscuit stocks which ended with the
failure of the Moore Bros the big props
IN the deal, and the failure of the great
est speculative scheme ever engineered
in Chicago, will not effect the business
of the Two companies. except to run
down the value of the stock some ON the
market.
1t is estimated by those in a position
to know that the Moore Bros. have lost
between 81, 900. 900 and s. 900. 900 in the
Diamor Match deal. Some say ii has
wiped out every cent of their fortunes.
The action of closing the exchange
was commended on all sides. Ii was
admitted that if an attempt had been
made to carry on trading under present
circumstances a panic would surely
have followed, in which all stocks
would have suffered materially, and
Diamond Match might have been run
down to l50 and New York Biscuit per
haps to 30 or 40. AS II Is. with the CO.
operation of the banks and the very
rich men who are interested i'll the Dia-
mond Match deal, no great sacrifice IN
values is anticipated. There is talk
among the members of the exchange,
the bankers and the heavy financiers OF
forming an unQerwrltllR synuictlte vi
take the match stock belonging to the
pool at 40. The banks will not be
losers While they are carrying large
amounts of Diamond Match stock they
have loaned on it only up to l60 and
$40 share. On New York Biscuit
from $75 to $50 share has been loaned
The stocks, il is figured, are intrinsic
ally worth these amounts and power
full organization most likely will be per
fected to protect values about these
figures; the market will not be sup
ported. but il will be saved from beal
raids. This syndicate would, of course
have to take up some stock, but 1t Is
argued that il would not take long Il
impress investment holders of the tru'
state of the shares and that Offering
would cease and stock eventually seel
a higher plane of quotations again.
Foregn negotiations of the mattel
company still continue.
Probably the heaviest losers in TIN
collapse, next to the Moores, are tn
brokers who had been doing busines
for them on the exchange. Those mos
effected are Breese Il Cummings. Bald
