That Deans Kidney Pills promptly and effectually cure kidney complaints is substantiated not only 4, this particular case. but by all who have given them fair trial. Testimony like wise shows that you do not have to take them indefinitely to be cured.

Friends spoke of my bad appearance and thous- ands knew about it. 1 could hardly get around, and felt and looked like a dead man more than living one. Doan Kidney Pills were a blessing to me. half a box relieved me. three boxes entirely cured me and now feel as though my back was as strong as that of any horse in Wheeling.

rHE oRpER REscINpEb.

We learn from contemporary that the Inspector or Commissiopsr of Indian Af- fairs has resctpded. thss fool order promul- -gated some monihs ago which required all Indians to have their hair cut of. The reason for taking back water is characteristic, if not altogether creditabl and all lies in the fact that many of the white men out West, especially in h. dian Territory, wear their hair down their shoulders and backs. The sacred right of football players. piano-punchers and Western cattlemen to wear long hair cannot be interfered with by the best government under the sun, nor would 1t be an altogether pacific job to set about shearing the craniums of these ranch men. It is one of the peculiarities of this portion of our population that they claim the right to dress and adorn themselves as they see proper. Long hair is one of the fads among them and the man, whether an official or what not who would undertake to clip their locks would find himself mixed up in some very live ly gun play.
 But what a reflection this last move q buke to the intolerance and injustice so often displayed in our treatment of the Indians. The white man wears his hair close cropped or hanging down his back. just as he chooses. The Government would not think of interfering with him in this respect. because such an attempt would be illegal, dangerous and impos- sible of execution. To issue an order that all white men should have their hair trimmed in a certain way and wear it only of. prescribed length would create a revolution, and it may be seriously doubted whether the powers of the Gov ernment would be sufficient to exectus such a law
 No sound and valid reason can be given for a regulation interfering with the h. dians and not with the white man. The former has the same hirsute rights as the latter. The reason given out, that the long hair worn by the red man was a carrier and breeder of disease. was a mere subterfuge. and was used in sup port of another phase of the one-sided policy which marks the Governments s treatment of the Indians If long hair is unhealthy for one race it is for the other. and there is just as much right and justice in forcing the white men to submit to hair cutting as there is In fore ing the Indians to submit. The order was absurd. illogical and unjust. and it's ab- rogation is the only sensible feature con neeted with it.

not control him. The parents asked that he be sent to the Indiana Industrial School. and stated the fact that they had
 several times so enter nua aim o,,1a n rns do SO on account of the crowded condi- ton of the institution.
 The judge wrote to know If we could manage to crowd him in We concluded that the reputation of the State as we'll as the good of the boy must be consid- cred, so on consultation with some mem bers of the Board of Control. we wrote the judge that we would crowd him in The next thing was to get him from In- dianapoiis to East Lake.
 Mrs. Julia E. Work of "Brightside," the Work Training School of Indiana, volunteered to chaperone the young man to elude her vigilance, she having been used to such boys for a good many years, haLded him safely over to a policeman in the depot at Atlanta, who placed him in jail awaiting the coming of a represen- tative of this school. When I visited the jail to see what manner of boy was to be one of my family, I asked why he persist ed in running away from home. He said he heard his people were going to send trying to avoid such a sentence. Poor boy! He found fate was against him, and, even after getting as far away from Alabama as Indiana. he finds himself on his way to the self-same school which he says he was trying to avoid.
 A policeman delivered him at the depot when We were ready to leave Atlanta. and now the boy is member of our family and doing very nicely for new boy.
 Alabama Is under obligations to the juvenile court of Indianapolis for the trouble which they took in rescuing one of our boys, to Mrs. Work for her un- selfish care of the boy on her journey South, and to the Atlanta police for their kind care of him during his stay in Att lanta.
 We hope he will prove to be one of our very best young men, and show that such care and trouble has not been in vain.

 Brown County has been disgraced by another whitecapping. A man has been dragged from his house in the middle of the night and brutally beaten. The re- ported cause for the outrage is a claim that The would not work" but from all reports he was hard-working man. Suppose the charge were true, what bet ter Is this performance than that of the Alabama people who forced negroes to work out debts? They were punished for their offense, but these miscreants are allowed to go at large. and are called good citizens" They are not good citi- zens.

We have found 1t at last. We have quite a number of contemporaries. each of which claims to be the best newspa- per in its town, but here comes The Love land Reporter, of Loveland.

GOOD cows AND SCRUB cows.

People who own cows which only yield
 two or three pounds of butter week for each COW will be surprised to read of one whose average yield for a year was
 within fraction of three pounds of but ter day. That is the record of Hunts
 vile COW whose actual yield of butter for the year ending May 31 was 1,o47 pounds. Her highest weekly record was
 9 pounds. and the highest months l1s
 pounds. as the yield varied a little at times.
 In all probability 1t cost but little more to feed and care for such a COW than 1t would for a scrub, but there is a vast difference in the profits Of course the original cost is more, and tt is natural that better feeding and more careful att tention should be bestowed on a COW of this kind than on one of the breed found on so many farms, but after this extra cost is taken out there must be a conn fortable sum on the credit side of the ledger. Just as in farming one man will
 raise ten bushels of corn to the acre.
 while another, by proper fertilizing and
 a better cultivation will get forty or fifty
 bushels, so some farmers will feed and
 milk three or four cows and get no more
 milk and butter than another will get
 from a single animal. The fact Is that stock food Is too scarce and valuable to
 be wasted on scrubs.

The boat did not strike a rock. as 1t was clearly in the channel cleaned out by the government and in PR informed by the mate of the Reeder MI. Ray Thomas. who sounded the depth the next day. The other mistake Is as to the day. it was not on the 18th as stated but the 24th. It further states that the boat 1oated down until she was with dif- f1culty landed on the Florence side" As to there being any difficulty in landing, that is altogether incorrect, as the pilot Captain Alllron, one of the best pilots on the river, landed the Reeder just as easi- ly and quietly as if the wheel had been in place. When the Reeder rounded in "a line was run out and made fast in a very short time. and stage plank put out and the people went ashore as quietly and calmly as if at a regular landing, not withstanding the wheel was in the river a half mile above.
