Colonel Jouaust-I must ask you, N. Labor.
to observe more moderation.
II. Labori-I never uttered an immoderate
word.
Colonel Jouaust-Your tone is improper.
NJ. Labori-I am not altogether master of
my tone.
Colonel Jouaust-Unless you can control
your tone forbid you to speak.
NJ. Labori-I must submit to your ruling.
but note the fact that l am forbidden to
speak every time enter upon ground where
my position is irresistible.
This retort by counsel for the defense
aroused immense excitement IN the
courtroom. Cheers broke out, drown
ing the murmurs of the generals and
their supporters.
Colonel Jouaust, after quiet had been
restored, remarked that II the. demon
STATIONS were renewed the courtroom
would be cleared. The president OF the
courtmartial then asked NJ. Labori If he
had any questions to put.
Nj. LaOorl-l speak RESPECTFULLY; but since 1t
is impossible for me to approach those ques-
tions which are the very core of the trial l re-
serve the right to adopt such line of action as
my responsibility and the rights of the de-
fense compel me to take.
Colonel Jouaust (sharply)-Sit down.
NJ. Labori-I resume my seat; but not by
order.
Major Gallopin, an officer of the ar
tillery, was then examined. He proved
rather unfavorable witness for Drey-
fus, whom he declared he once met on
the Boulevard St. German carrying a
voluminous package which he said con
tanned secret papers treating Of mObili-
-ation and which he was carrying to the
geographical bureau.
Dreyius was questioned regarding
this statement by Major Gallopin and
admitted that he sometime took dOcu-
ments home to facilitate work, but he
said that he did not recall the particu-
lar incident to which Major Gallopin
referred.
The next witness, Major Hirsch- -Anel,
deposed that he heard Dreyfus express a
desire to go to the manoeuvres. Major
Hirsch-Anel, however, could not re-
member the exact date.
Captain Dreyfus replied: ''It is very
possible that expressed regrets that l
would lie unable to go to the manoeu-
vers, and what is certain, we all knew
that none of the probationers would
go"
Lieut.. Col. Picquart was called to the
witness stand and SAID that Dreyfus
never applied to him for leave to go to
the manoeuvres, adding that he was sur
prised no inquiry had been made upon
this point to tile chief of Dreyfus' bu-
re;tu.
The deposition of Lieutenant Colonel
Du Patty De Clam which, was taken by
Magistrate Travenier, was then read.

IitiOu of De CLAIMS former evidence

SO DIFFERENT.
Lots of Claims Like This But
So Different.
Local Proof Is What Akron
People Want.

There are a great many of them.
Every paper has its share.
Statements hard to believe, harder
to prove.
Statements from far away places.
What people say in Florida.
Public expression from California.
Oftimes good Endorsement there,
But of little service here at home.
Akron people want local proof.
The sayings of neighbors, friends
and citizens.
Home Endorsement counts.
1t disarms the skeptic; is beyond
dispute.
This is the backing that stands be-
hind every box of Doan's Kidney
Pills.
Here is case of it:
Mr.. Henry Gheen, of 219 Hickory
street, stationary engineer, says:
''DOan's Kidney Pills cured my
backache and toned and strengthen
ed my kidneys. Before procuring
them from Lamparter 4 Co.'s drug
store and taking the treatment l had
a disagreeable sensation in the back
of my neck in addition to other
symptoms of weakened and irregu-
lar kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills
removed these SYMPTOMS and l can
not too strongly express my conf
dence in the remedy. They respond
ed promptly whenever L resorted to
them on the slightest appearance of
lumbago. They never fail me-"

1t In Vain.
He was q family man, though evil
IDENTIFY not of long standing, for he had
not yet acquired the faculty of doing
the marketing without looking sheep
ish.
He was buying provisions at large
and central grocery the other day,
when for some reason or other he add
ed to the heap of parcels before him
a fine big watermelon.
"Going to carry them, did you say?"
demonstrated q clerk. Melons are
mighty slippery. Better let me send it."
But the family man shook his head
contemptuOuSly.
'I've stuck TO them when l was 60

fences when | was younger, and l
guess I'll be able to stick to one now,"
ne remarked loftily. How much did
you say? All right And he strobe
away with his possessions in his arms.
He might have got on very well IL
he had not tried to look dignified. But
with big watermelon under his arms.
At any rate he found it out, for as
he strOde on to his car he felt an awful
slipping. There was no time to clutch.
Catch that car he must, and, pressing
down on the slippery encumbranee as
hard as he could, but never deigning
to look at it, on he went and was all
but safe, when right at the car steps
there was a sudden slide, a crash, a
juicy splutter, and there lay upon the
pavement the wreck of his melon.
He was dimly aware of a row Of
grinning faces and a rush of news
boys to the. scene, but still stood, star
ing tragically down at the heap Of
scarlet, while the car went on. Then,
nearly upset by the scrambling urchins,
he turned and strode away as dignified
as ever, but it's safe to predict that one
family at least went without melon

SOME Of IHE BEST.
There Are Also Many Others OF
Equal Force.
Good Qualities That Put the Stamp of
Excellence Upon This Article.

There are many reasons why you
should take Morrow's Kid-ne-oids in
preference to any other kidney prep
aration. First, Kid-ne-oids are a
scientific preparation. Second They
are tablets, which is the scientific
form of preparing medicine. Third
There are never any bad after effects
from their use. Fourth, They act di-
rectly upon the kidneys; they are
strictly kidney cure and nerve
tonic. Fifth, You do not have to quit
work while using Kid-ne-oids. A
fifty-cent box contains enough for
about two weeks treatment. People
use Kid-ne-oids because they cure
kidney ailments.
Mrs. J. r. Thomas, 214 S. Spencer
ST., Akron, O., says: Il have been
very much distressed with pain
across the small of my back for a
number of years. Sometimes the
pain would extend down into my hip
joints which 1 supposed to be lum-
bago. L also had other symptoms of
disordered kidneys; 1 heard about
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids and decided to
try them. | was surprised to find
myself greatly relieved ofmy troubles
and. their continued use has COM
pletely cured me-"
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills,
but Yellow Tablets, and sell at fifty
