IN THE SPRINGTIHE.

When from the south the breezes come
To put old winter out of plumb,
When gentle spring is close at hand
And pleasant sunshine fills the land,
Then lovely woman goes about,
With energy to beat the band,
To put the dirt to rout.
Her hair is in an apron tied,
Her dress pinned up on either side;
She dons faded underskirt
And valiantly pursues the dirt
With dust rag, broom and mop;
She hasn't even time to fiirt;
For gossip she won't stop.
The humble man about the place
Has pressing business or case
That calls him very far away;
We won't get back till late next day.
He knows that if he'll only wait
There's Trash to burn and rugs to lay,
And SO he pulls his freight.
Oh, when the spring its lease has
signed,
A microbe rules all womankind,
And she must clean her house or die;
No use to ask the reason why
Or of the matter further talk
So when man sees it in her eye
He takes a walk.

PAINFUL URINATION.
Symptoms Of Advance Of Kid
ney Disease.
A Kidney Remedy That Cannot
Contain Alcohol.

Ninty-nine persons in a hundred
who feel burning sensation when
they pass water, and occasionally
sharp pains at other times, make the
fatal mistake of regarding the pain as
the only trouble, and not as
symptom of the advance of kidney
disease.
There is only one way to regard
these warnings. They mean danger
near or future. Stop them. Dr..
Pettingill's Kidney Wort Tablets DOS
itively stop painful urination They
relieve in very few days and, most
important of all, they bring the kid
neys back to health.
Kidney-Wort Tablets cured @. o.
Collins of diabetes.
Nahua, N H., March 4, 1908.
Gentlemen-l was suffering from
diabetes, and was led to use Kidney
Wort Tablets because being in tablet
form | could take the remedy with me
about my work, which was impossible
for me to do with medicine in liquid
form. / was also much impressed by
the fact that Kidney Wort Tablets
contain no alcohol. l have grown
steadily better since taking the Tab
let's and am recommending many of
my friends who are afflicted with kid
ney troubles to use them.
Yours very truly,
@. o. Collins.
If you find brick dust deposit in
your urine, or if it is high cnlored !;
if your skin is dry and harsh feeling,
burning at night if you have un-
usual thirst and scanty or excessive
flow Of urine, or if you are losing in
weight or strength, your safety lies
in the immediate use of Kidney Wort
Tablets. Kidney-Wort Tablets are
the one true specific. Brighu's dis
ease and diabetes have both been re-
peatedly cured by it after the disease
was well developed When used for
any of the milder forms of kidney de-
rangement, such as habitual backache,
headaches, rheumatism, colds, fire.
| quent or painful passage of water,
high colored urine, it acts with mar
velous promptness and efficiency.
Kidney Wort Tablets contain nc
alcohol nor drugs Beware of liquid
kidney remedies. They have aggra-
waited thousands of cases of simple
kidney weakness into Bright's dis
| ease.
That the public understands the vi
tai Importance of procuring a kidney
| remedy that cannot contain alcohol is
| shown by the enormous demand at
every drug store for Kidney W ort
| Tablets.

THE McNALLY CASE.

Because Superintendent Morgan of
the house of correction saw fit to usurp
the powers of the Supreme Court,
the course of justice has been blocked
and man adjudged guilty of what
the law chooses to regard as misde-
meanor has gone scot free without
having received any punishment such
as the law says shall be melted out.
In this particular instance the public
and the respondent may be as we'll off,
but the matter il one which goes be-
yond the specific instance to ques
tion of principle, of whether the laws
are to interpreted by the judges of the
courts or by the superintendent of a
place of imprisonment.
When Superintendent Morgan rem
dered his opinion on the meaning of
section 81 of the new license law he
may have been right in his judgment
or he may have been wrong, but in
either case he was wrong in refusing
to receive Michael McNally as pris-
form, and back of the question of form
Mr.. Morgan had no right to go. That
was suffici INT to make the holding
justifiable until some higher court
had declared the man was improperly
sentenced to commitment there
Mr.. Morgan may be DESTROYS to
keep down the number of prisoners in
the institution of which he has charge,
but he has no right to defeat the ac-
ton of the regularly established
courts and set himself up to act in
their stead. He i; but servant of
the people appointed to assist in the
execution of the sentences of the
courts, and it is his duty to obey the
orders of the courts regularly trans
mitted to him.
The city court of Montpe Ter had
exercised its rightful authority in
ordering Mr.. Morgan to receive Nc
Nally as prisoner, If by misin-
depreciation of the law the court erred
in ordering the commitment there,
that was not Mr.. Morgan's affair.
1t would have been a very simple
matter for a higher court to have
freed the prisoner through habeas
corpus proceedings and Mr.. Morgan
would not have been liable. The
power which appointed Mr.. Morgan
should call him to account for his &C.
tion and explain to him what his
duties are.

IRA CALEF BADLY HURT.

Washington, Vt, April 27.-Ira O.
Calef of this village who was injured
in wreck on the Grand Trunk rail-
road in Canada some time ago is now
confined to his room in the Audi
forum Hotel in Chicago as result
of his injuries. At the time of the
accident it was supposed he was not
seriously hurt though one knee was
bruised severely. In spite of the best
medical attention, however, water has
gathered beneath the patella and when
heard from OIL Saturday Mr.. Calef
was unable to move from his chair.
Unless he grows better soon it is
likely that his sister, Miss Lucie
Calef, will go to him, from Washing

McNALLY AGAIN.

The Montp ,lier officers have re-
leased Michael McNally, drunk, second
offens,, sentenced to the house of cor
rection but refused admittance by
Supt. d. l.. Morgan, on the ground
that the license local option law does
not provide for sentencing DRINKS to
the work house, but to county jails
1t is not stated but it is presumed
that the Montpelier officers apolog ized
to the drunken McNally-at least they
secured from him pledge not to pros
ecute the Stale for damages by reason
of false imprisonment. The
municipal and city judges of the Sta5e
met at Burlington some weeks ago
and di ;cussed this particular section
and it was the opinion that the course
adopted in the case of McNally was
proper. 1t would appear that the
superintendent has taken legal advice
on the subject and that the legal
opinion disagrees with that of the
judges. That the superint ,ndent s
position seems tenable is evident to
the Montpelier officials, who have has
tened to release McNally who goes
News.
The Journal would inform it's Rut-
land contemporary that the Montpelier
officers consider they had no reason to
apologize to McNally, though they
did release him because they had no
right to hold him in county Jail on a
mittimus to the house of correction.
There was no question about that
proposition and at the stage to which
the game had advanced it was too late
to take measures to compel Mr.. Nor
gan to receive McNally or to get an
expression OF opinion from higher
court ON the main question.
Moreover. that the superinten-
dents position seems tenable' is not
evident to the Montpelier officials as
can be seen from the fact that when
another case similar to McNally' &
came up in city court on Tuesday
the same sentence was imposed. This
time hab cas- corpus proceedings have
been instituted in a manner to bring
the main question before the Supreme
Court and secure decision as to
whether the law is sbat man who
fails to pay his fine for a second
offense of intoxication can or cannot
be sent to Rutland under the general
law. The house of correction officials
as we'll as others throughout the State
will do we'll to watch the outcome Of
the petition for release brought on be
half of Andrew Rodgers, which will
be heard in Supreme Court. at th'
May term.
