most popular ladies in IIodgeman
County, has been n martyr 10 head
ache for years. Ii has made her life
continual misery to her. She suf-
fcrcd pains in the small Of the back
and had every symptom Of Kidney
and Urinary Trouble.
To-day She is rs well as any lady
in the state.
This remarkable change was due
entirely, to a remedy recently intro
duccd here. 1t is called Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and many people claim it to
be an infaliblc cure for Kidney Dis
eases, rheumatism and Heart
Trouble.
Mrs. Freeman heard OF Dodd's Kid
ncy Pills. and almost with the first
dose she grew better. In week her
headaches and other pains had gone.
and she had left behind her ali her
illness and days Of misery.
A medicine that can do for any one
what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
for this lady, is very sure soon to be
universally used, and already the de-
mand for these pills has increased
wonderfully in Pawncc and Hodge

THE CUBAN ELECTORAL LAW.
Viii he discussed by the toustitu-
tionRi Convention During the
Present week.

Havana. July L.. During The com
ing week the Constit uiional conyen-
ton will discuss the electoral law.
The project submitted by the commits
sion provides only for the election OF
congressman, governors, state repre-
Sentatiyes. mayors and coInclmen.
No agreement has been reached as to
whether or not to elect the president
aud senators by direct popular vote.
The discussion of the electoral law
will undoubtedly open up an argu-
ment by the conservatives against a
federal republic with many provincial
officers as cntailing heavy cxpendi
lures. The conservatives will oppose
granting absolute autonomy to the
provinces and municipalities. An cf
fort will be made to change the con
stitution. and to invest the central
government with aprointive and veto
power.

TRADE OF THE PHILIPPINES.
He In Statement by the
War Department.

Washington, July IA marked in
crease in NE trade of the philippine
islands during the calendar year OF
1906 over the commerce Of the preyi'
ous year, is set out in statement
mndc public yesterday by the division
OF insular affairs 81 the war depart
ment
The value of imported merchandise,
gold and silver. for 1900 is set down 1T
s27,,65. 100, This, according 70 the war
department statement, was the
greatest importation for any single
year in the history OF the archipelago.
In 1889 the imports amounted to $2O,-
i40,O7i in value. mus showing an in.
crease OF nearly thirty-siS per cent. in
favor of 1900.
Accordineto an estimate based upon
data collected by the British consul
at Manila, the approximate value OF
imports into the Philippine islands
for 1895 was $7,9i6.6O0; for 1896, So
292. 500. and for 1897, So,i2o,ooo.
During the five years lss7-is9i the
average annual value of imports from
the United States amounted TO $780,
66a; during the FIVE years ls92-ls96
the average annual imports amounted
TO Sl36,22s; in 1899 the imports were
81, 1851. s34, and in 1900 s2,l53,l9s.
The total imports from China and
Hong Kong for 1900 amounted to So
536.443, and for 1899. $9,0sl,63i
1t has been shown as regards the
statistics of imports into the islands
from the United States, that they do
not include a large amount Of mcr-
chandise that is imported indirectly,
including such staples as wheat, flour,
meat products, cotton manufactures
and many other articles. \ large pro-
portion of this trade is recorded as
imports from Hong Kong, which are
undoubtedly re-eNportcd from that
port TO the islands.
The imports from the United States
direct for 1900 show an increase Of
Ss01 ,344 over those Of 1899, while the
imports from Hong Kong in 1900 show
material decrease from the estimat-
ed figures of 1899.
This would iedicatc that. as the
shipping facilities in Manila harhor
arc being improved direct shipments
TO Manila are increasing, and that
there is corresponding decrease in
the rc-eNportation OF merchandise
from Hong Kong TO the Philippines.
The imports into the Philippines
from the United States direct in 1900
show an increase over 1899 Of 80 per
cent; from the United Kingdom. y
per cent: from Germany. - per cent;
from France. 23j per cent. The i'm
ports from Spain in 1900 show a de-
crease from those Of 1899 Of % per
cent.
The total value Of merchandise. gold
and silver. exported from the Philip
pines during the calendar wear 1900
amounted to s26,sSl 100, against >l9,.
2s3.3ss for 1899. and an average from
1850 TO 1894 Of $40, $40, 96l.
The exports to the United States
decreased from 5000 2j5 in 1899 to
50 ,96s. ss1 in 1900.
