EASILY GIVEN.

1t was only sunny smile,
And little it'cost in the giving,
But it scattered the night
Like morning light
And made the day worth living.
Through life's dull warp a woof it wove
In shining colJrs of light and love,
And the angels smiled as they watch
ed above
Let little it cost in giving.
Itwas only kindly word,
And word that was lightly spoken,
Yet not in vain,
For it stilled the pain
Of heart that was nearly broken.
1t strengthened fate beget by fears,
And cropping blindly through mists Of
tears
For light to brighten the coming years,
Although it was lightly spoken.
II was only helping hand,
And it seemed of little availing,
But its clasps were warm,
And it it saved from harm
A brother whose strength was fail
ing.
1IS COuCu "oo Icliuei dS du&Clo wings,
But it rolled the stone from the hidden
springs
And pointed the way tn higher things,
Though 1T seemed of little availing.
A smile, word or touch
And each is easily given
Yet either may win
A soul from sin,
Or smooth the way to heaven.
A smile may Tighten the failing heart,
A word may softeen pains keenest
smart,
A touch may lead US from sin apart,
How easily either is given!

Kidney trouble has become 30
prevalent that it is not uncommon
for a child to be born afflicted
with weak kidneys.
If the child urinates too often,
If the urine scalds the flesh, or if,
when the child reaches an age
when it should be able to control
the passage. and it is yet afflicted
with bed-we.ting, depend upon it,
the, cause of the difficulty ls
kidney trouble, and the first step
should be towards the treatment OF
these important organs. This
unpleasant trouble is due to a
diseased condition Of the kidneys
and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.

The FriChtful Work of a Tor
n:IO.

Kirksville, Mo-, April 2S.-
Kirksville is n scene of desolation
and suffering as the result of last
evenings tornado. Many of the
dead and dying remained in the
ruins Of their homes during The
night. Others who had been found
and taken to places of shelter
died before morning A small
army of doctors, students and
citizens spent the dark hourse
in IA ceaseless hunt for unfor-
tn mates. All night lanterns dart
ed here and there among the d..bris,
answering some cry for help, or
directed by tho sight of some
struggling form fgh;irg 70 escape
from it's plac, of imprisonment.
Here and there fires that started
after the tornado passed, and which
were allowed to burn, sent up u
bright glow and lent aid to the
rescuers. 1t is possible that these
same fires incinerated some victims
who could not pc reached, ard only
today's search can reveal the true
state of affairs.
The same scenes could be told
of at Newton, which shared a like
fate at the hands of The tornado.
DAYS must pass before complete
list of the casualties can be secured
The latest details show the list
known 10 be dead to have been
raised to forty-nine by identified
ton. Twenty-four more bodies
have been rec overed. The number
of injured is also C ,nslderably
increased. Mayor Noonan wbo
has been active in the rescue work,
estimates that the death list may
reach 100.

districts state that many farmers

latest reports from Newton are that
twenty persons are thought to have
been killed and between thirty and
forty injured. some of them fatally.
The path of the storm is about eoo
feet wide, and hardly a dwelling
in it's course escaped.
The gathering storm that had
been threatening all yesterday
afternoon, broke upon klrksvllle
at 6 80 o'clock last night in all the
fury of a cyclone. A path a
quarter of a mile wide and as clea u
as the prairie was swept through,
the eastern portions of the city, and
AGO buildings, homes and mercan-
tile, we're leveled to the ground In

A Just Verdict.

At Canton, Ohio, the jury in the
Mrs. George murder case-the wo-
man who killed President McKin-
ley's brother in-l -law-returned a
verdict of "not guilty" at 1925
o'clock Saturday morning. Before
the verdict was read the court eau
toned the audience that there
must be no demonstration. In
spite of that there were loud cheers
as the clerk read the verdict of
';not guilty"
A score of women rushed to Mrs.
George and shook her hand. Con-
gratulatlons were also extended to
her attorneys. She worked her
way to the jury box, took each
juror by the hand aud gave them
a word and nod of thanks. Then
the court said she was discharged,
and released the jury.

pendence of the Filiplnos under
an American protet torate.
The afternoon conference be-
tween Otis and the Filipino COM
mission today was without result.
The commissioners have returned
to the insurgent lines.
The second conference las ted
only three hours. Admiral Dewey,

inc commissioners were present.

Washington, April 29-General
Otis catles: The conference with
the insurgent representatives. M
terminated this morning. Their
request for a cessation of hostlties
for three weeks to enable them to
call congres, together to declare
whether to continue the prosecu-
ton of the war or to propose terms
of peece was declined.
Full amnesty was promised on
surrender. 1t is believed the
insurgents are tired of war, but
seek to secure terms of peace
through what they denominate
their representatives in congress-
The expectation in Washington:
ig that fighting will be resumed
immediatly in the vicinity o.
