TO ouENCH OUR THIRST.

By most decisive vote on the 10Th
inst. the city of Staunton voted to
have soft water brought into her
mains. There is one popularity ABOUT
Staunton, she always goes wet. her
hankering after water is bewitchlngly
funny. Just say water to her people
soft, hard, soda, fire or any other kind
and a ready response is heard. They
20 for 1t by a large majority. 1t is
not because we love soft water that
we have agreed to tax ourselves to
bring it in, we know really nothing OF
that kind of water yet. but because
our neighbor, Harrisonburg, town
remarkable for it's love of water. has
told us what a blessing soft water is.
Since the citizens of Harrisonburg
have gotten soft water, they drink
nothing else, they actually battle in it.
just think of having enough water IN
Harrisonburg to battle in. This would
seem wasteful to the old resident who
has lived on few buckets full each
week and only foot bath on Saturday
nights, but the rising generation there
is more prodigal. We want to be prod
igal, we too want water we can battle
In. We want water also to drink, we
have now to do our drinking in small
quantities out Of bottles, we want to
be able to 60 to the spigot and drink
to our satisfaction, we want to tell the
lithia, and the alum, and the chaly-
beate water vendor that be needn't
come around. We want water that Is
not repugnant to soap, that will mix
with all kinds of food and drink, that
does not coat the teakettle with lime,
that does not corrode pipes, that runs
into town like the country lad whose
father has insisted on his turning the
erindstone. We want gallons, millions
of gallons of water, we know somebody
else will have to pay for it. We want
water, water every where, and barrels
of it to drink. We suppose it is be
cause we are poor we want it In sucI
quantities. 1t was the rich man who
only wantedn drop to cool bis parchet

convincing proof that the kidneys and blad-
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root the great kidney remedy fufills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to 60 often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.

w. B. Biddle, freight traffic manager
of the Santa Fe, discussing the cut in
rates, said:
In making an open reduction in rates
we are only doing what most Of our COM
petitors have been doing secretly for
many weeks. Our traffic between Kan

ing week by week until it is now only
or 5 per cent of the total traffic be-
tween these points, while one of the
weakest lines is carrying over Is per

Such condition of affairs could only
be caused by secret rate cutting by our
competitors. To stop such business we
determined to make a wholesale reduce
tion in rates openly. If this reduction
proves to be insufficient to stop secret
rate cutting we will openly make another
big one.
AS soon as We are given satisfactory
assurance that all our competitors will
maintain reasonabl rates we will ad-
vance ours to a normal basis. but not be-
