country. "Disease fastened its clutch

wthstood its severest tests, but her vi

THE HIDDEN FUTURE

 a Closed Book, Unrevealed.

When the great Harvey was whipped at school for experimenting with a cat. his teacher little thought that he had trounced the future discoverer of the circulation of the blood. When Ma hommed was an obscure driver of cam. els, he little imagined he would fou~d a religion which to-day embraces over two hundred million souls. When Mir. J. NJ. Taylor. of the Lion Fire Insur- ance O., office at Io7 Asylum st., Hart ford, Ct., was induced to try Doan's Kidney Pills, almost against his will. he never expected the results he ob- tained. If the reader is troubled like MT. Taylor. and will but give Deans Kidney Pills trial, he can assuredly depend upon the same results Speak. ing about it Mir. Taylor says:
 While transactlng some business for our Insurance Company in the west, I was thrown from a carriage. received injuries which nearly cost my life. was :arefully treated by most skillful phy- sicians for the same. was under ether for two weeks from 10 A. NJ. to P. NJ. and eventually got over the major DOT ton ot the trouble. Difficulty with the Ildney secrctions, and a tendency to gravel were the main symptoms of i'm Jured kidneys. In spite of physicians and the treatment of scores of sure cures for such complaints, l was unable to find anything to do me permanent good un- tll l took thorough course of Doan's Kidney Pills. From them I obtained more. permanent relief than from any thing l ever rscd."

CONGRESS IN BRIEF.

MT. Spooner (Rep.) of Wisconsin ad- dressed the senate Thursday in oppo- sition to the Vest antiexpansion reso- lution. He declared himself against the admission of the Philippines as states of the Union at any time, but favored the ratification of the treaty of Paris. A lively debate occurred during his speech between himself. MT. Tillman, Mir. Hoar and others. The house passed the river and harbor appropriation bill. appropriating more than s30.000.o00
