diabetes or any kidney ills when
relief is so near at hand and the
most positive proof given that
they can be cured. Read what

paper an advertisement about
Doan's Kidney Pills which stated
that remedy could be depended

FOR THE CHILDREN
A Kind Hearted Street Boy.

Aln0 neoEtc0 StECCb DVSs
sometimes people imagine that boys
who live all their lives on the dU's
streets struggling for livelihood are
not tender hearted and kind.
But the story Of New York news
boy shows that this is not always 50.
A little girl about six years old was
playing with some children dangerous
" near the edge Of the sea wall down
at the Battery. Every once in awhile
she would stop playing to cuddle lit
tie kitten that was with her.
While she was holding the kitten In
her arms somebody proposed game OF
tag and chased the little girl. She ran
straight toward the sea wall, where
she suddenly slipped and would have
fallen into the water If she bad not
thrown her hands out and thus saved
herself.
But the poor kitten fell into the w
ter. and there it foundered about pit
eously mewing, while a crowd Of chill
dren and grown folks gathered on the
wall above, gazing down at 1t, some Of
them even laughing.
At this point along came Maurice, the
newsboy. One glance was enough to
show him what was doing. Jaw"
exclaimed he. "What are you'se guys
rubbernecking at de kids pet fur? Why
don't you'se do supthin'? Don't you'se
see the little kids a-cryin'"
The next minute, selling the chain
that guards the edge Of the Battery
walk, Maurice swung himself down
and reached out as far as he could in
the effort to reach the kitten.
Then, to the dismay of the onlookers,
just as he caught the kitten he some
how lost his grip on the chain, and
down he fell into the water. The tide
was going out, and try as he could he
could not get footing on the rocks.
But workman, who was passing by,
hurried to the rescue. Hanging over
the wall, while couple Of men held
his legs, he caught the boys hand and
pulled him out Of the water.

No VoWela In 1t.

Many places have curious names, but
apparently there is only one place
which has a name without any vowels.
That place Is the little hamlet of VS.,
near Paris. VS. being an unpronounce-
able name, the inhabitants Of the ham,
let have transformed it into Us" but
this change has not been sanctioned le-
sally, and on all the official records the
name VS. still appears. The hamlet has
lit inhabitants and its sole attrac,
lions are the Chateau d'Osny. which
has been for many years in the posses
sion of Edmond About's family, and
the Chateau de Vigny, which is one of
the best specimens of the renaissance
style Of architecture.
So far as is known. there Is only one
person In Europe at present who has
q name without any vowels, and that
is NJ. Srb. the mayor Of Prague.

WOULD PREPARE FOR WAR.
Premier Bafour Emphasizes the Nee
essity of War Estimates,

London, March Fin the course of a
discussion of the naval estimates in the
house OF commons last evening Premier
Balfour, while admitting the magnitude
of the estimates said the house should
not only consider the amount but
should watch the general European and
Asiatic situation which alone could JUS
tify what the country was asked to ex-
pend. The country should not lose sight
of the possibility of war between Great
Britain and two great maritime powers
which could hardly end without great
losses on THE part of both the enemy
and Great Britain, in which event the
other navies would be intact and in a
maritime position which they did not
now hold.
Continuing, Mr.. Ralfour said he was
reluctant to mention the possibility OF
war. He did not think such dreadful
contingency was one which they at
present had any reason to apprehend.
But when talking of the navy. he was
forced when indicating the general out
lines Of the reasons which compelled
the government to ask for this sacrifice,
to indicate possibilities which did not
exist twenty years ago. There was
no possible comparison between the de-
pendence Great Britain placed on her
navy which vas defensive, and the de-
pendence placed by America or any
countries on their aavies
which We're offenses.
The vote for the effectiveness of the
navy was then agreed TO.

his knowledge Of the business affairs of
the Porter Brothers Company, the
bankrupt fruit concern was abandoned
yesterday by Attorney Bach, represen-
tative of New York creditors, during
the hearing of the case of Referee in
Bankruptcy Reenan. Mr.. Watson, who
was president of the fruit company be-
fore it became bankrupt, has been call
ed as a witness several times since the
hearing began. When Watson was call
ed to testify yesterday he appeared to
be as ignorant of the business trans
actions Of the defunct company, as on
former occasions, and it was decided it
would be useless to question him any
further.
"On previous occasions you have
pleaded that II you We're given time to
inspect your books you could give in
telllgent answers to my questions said
Attorney Bach. do you think you
could answer the questions IL this ex-
animation is further prolonged?"

Why japan Resists.

New York, March 2--Under the title
why Japan Resists Russia Mr.. Ia
kahira. the japanese minister at
Washington. discusses the cause OF the
present conflict in the forthcoming
number of the North American Re-
view
Mr. Takahira points out the grounds
for his governments belief that Rus
sia's encroachments in the far east
were a menace to Japan. inasmuch as
the absorption of Manchuria meant
"the inevitable sequence OF such ac-
ton; the absorption of Korea"
After explaining in some detail the
events that led UP to the war, he
says:
There is no foundation for the be-
lief that Japan was prompted to war
by ambition. or that her success, if
happily She be successful, implies any
danger 20 other nations. To thought
full japanese there can be no greater
cause for wonder than the conjecture
whether their country's success may
not be the precursor of new align
ment of races, oriental on the one side,
Caucasian on the other. TO them 1T
seems no more than a chimerical
dream, a suggestion of memories of the
age of Genghis Khan, impossible of
achievement in these better days of in
innate intercourse and mutual inter
dependence among all nations.
Let me add. also, that those who
endeavor to attach some measure of
reproach to Japan by cilaracterizing
this as a war between a Christian and
a nom Christian country, fall utterly
ito appreciate the efforts my country
men llave made to conform to the
spirit as we'll as to the practices of
modern civilization. Freedom of re-
Ngious belief is as firmly guaranteed
in Japan as in amy country in the
world and speak with no thought OF
self -laudation or of invidious com-
parison when I express the belief that
rectitude of thought and conduct will
be as fully exemplified by the actions
Of my countrymen during the present
as by those of their adver-
saries. Assured of the justice of our
cause, yet not DESTROYS of escaping
Judgment founded on knowledge, we
10 feel that we have the right to ex-
pect exemption from narrow minded
.riticism based on the prejudices of
race or of creed"
