remarkable case has just occurred here
Mr.. w. III. McFalls has been suffer
ing severely for two years with an all
ment that puzzled the doctors and
everybody. The trouble seemed to he
all in his head, which had burning
sensation all the time.
Sometimes this burning pain in the
head would be worse than at other
times, but 1T never left him.
At last he tried new remedy called
Dcdl's Kidney pills, and was agree
ably surprised to find that the burning
gradually disappeared.
An attack of La Grippe has laid him
up for the last few weeks. but Dodd's
Kidney Pills have banished his old
trouble entirely.
His son George used few of the
Pills which his father did not need
and they have done him so much good
that he says lie would not take ten
cents pill for the few he still has left.

eating a bit of pheasant and toast in

him at point of vantage from which
he could witness the several cham

took possession of 1t. Then he made
good use of it.

glass bottle vigorously and the white
substance spread itself over the sand

Then he tore into it.
Just taste this and see if you think
it has anything peculiar about it, he
said to several of his friends.
They all agreed that there was GER
tainly something the matter with the
hurrying with salt shaker and an
other containing pepper.
Here's the salt and pepper, but this
sandwich tastes mighty funny"
The waiter took look around, and
then there came a strong exclamation
from him: -'Ach, Colt. You hat pudt

1t was only too true The little glass

players to sprinkle on their hands. He
was revived with the aid of stomach

O'ari.n's Story

| Washington, May 2S.-Soon after the
senate convened today, Senator Calm
| ger, (New Hampshiie). offered q leso-
luton providing that the Judiciary COM
mittee of the senate should make an
investigation into the subject of lynch
/ ings in the United States With a view
of ascertaining whether there is any
remedy for Them Senator Gallinge
said he introduced the resolution in full
/ view of the fact he might be charged
| with precipitating a sectional contro-
| Nersy, but nothing Was further from his
| thoughts
He said lynchines %ere not confined
to the south. Horrible cases had oc-
CURED in the north, ANA white men as
We'll as black, had been victims.
/! Throughout the country tho intense in
terest is manifested in the subject. He
i thought it imperative the judiciary
committee should take some action up
! on the subject. During The past ten
years 265 lynchings had occurred in
the United States. OF these 12l had oc-
CURED in the south and fourteen in the
north, the remainder in ether parts OF
| the country If the strong army OF the
law could reach out to prevent such
! occurrences he deemed it desirable to
do so.
Senator culbcrtson CTexas) presented
what he had read of an account of the
lynching i'm Kansas saying he wanted
1t shown the crime of lynchng is con-
fined to no state or section. He said he
| hoped the New Hampshire senator
would not single out his state when he
wanted to bring such cases before the
senate. After remavlss by Senator Iloal'
! upon the constitutional feature of the
case the resolution went over. The Phil
ippines bill WIS then taken up and Pat
terson (Colcrado) made a speech in OPP
position to it.

Fair. Raising rents is an operation
that should be cautiously INDUCED" it

and builders are numerous and acner-
getic. A conservative course in this
matter will best serve the interests of
