Washington, Sept. 2O.-It is the pres
ent intention OF the administration TO
send To Cuba as a garrison force for the
island about 10000 troops in addition to
the force now in Santiago under COM
mand of General Lawton. The organi-
cations which are to comprise the Cuban
garrison have not all been designated
yet. but il is assured that at least half
of them will be volunteers. Within two
weeks orders will be issued for the
movement to Cuba of the first O.OOO Of
the permanent garrison. and il is the
expectation now that they will sail from
the United States about Oct. TO- These
troops will be followed quickly by 9th
ers. until the entire force of 10000 has
been established on the island.
II is not the intention of the admins
tration to await the evacuation of the
island by the Spanish forces before
sending United States stroops to Cuba
the indications now are that IL may
be several months before the Cuban
commissioners complete their work
Quite naturally considerable number
OF Spanish troops will remain on the
island until the arrangements for the
REIMBURSEMENT of Spanish sovereignty
over il formally have been concluded.
The rainy season in Cuba is nearly al
an end and the most delightful season
of the year on the island is about to
begin. During the late fall and winter

TAKE GOOD CARE
OF Your Earthly TempIe-When That is
Gone All is Gone.

A duty we owe to ourselves is t.
take good care of our earthly temple
Many people abuse their body, anC
the would hears them grumble abou
| poor health the rest of their lives.
| Others are indiscreet and do Sc
many unreasonable things that they

others who chance to be victims oi

When the earthly temple once be-
gins to show ruin, the owner begins
to look for repairer. Sometimes he
succeeds, and many times he fails,
1t largely depends upon what kind of
repairs are necessary. If it is your
kidneys, we can tell you just what to
get. This is our business. We are
repairers of kidneys. Strange busi-
ness, isn't it? Do you wonder if we
have much TO do? Don't wonder
again, for we tell you now, that we
have thousands upon thousands work
ing at this repair work all the time.
They are very skilled workmen. They
all have the same name. 1t is Nor
rows Kidneoids. They are a never
failing remedy. We know it and you
will too, if you try them. Why not
try them, for they are used here in
this city.
Mrs. Brown, of 2211 Fourth avenue,
this city, is one of them. She is well
along in years, and has suffered now
for the last II years. Hasn't she tried
to stop it? OF course she has, but
never been successful, although she
has tried a number of other prepara-
tions. This malady is a difficult one
to master, as everyone suffering with
it will tell you. Most of them have
constant pain. Sometimes very Sc

Mrs. Brown says she often had
severe catches or stitch in the back.
These stitches renders one almost
helpless for the time being. She saw
Morrows' Kidneoids and procured a
box from Bahnsen's drug store. They
helped her within a week, even at her
age and the years she has had it.
