When your back gives out;
Becomes lame, weak or aching !;
When urinary troubles set in,
Your kidneys are Gin bad

prove it.
j. A. Thornton, the well known
real estate dealer of Fort Worth,
with headquarters at Fourth and
Rusk SJs., and who lives at BOP
Adams ST., says: Sometime in
the spring of 1902, believe it
was in the month of April, Il
gentleman called on me and
asked me to state my opinions Of
Doan's Kidney Pills. At that
time ] told him they had proved
of incalcuable benefit to me.
Sometime previous to his visit /
had purchased a box and had
continued using the pills until
cured of a very aggravating at
tack of backache and kidney
complaint. 1t is fully a year
since ! made this statement and
told the people of Fort Worth
therein that Doan's Kidney Pills
could be depended on to act ex-
actly as claimed. Now all that |
can add TO my original statement
is that threatened sometime ago
with recurrence, few doses of
the pills warded off the attack be-
fore it got any further than all
incipient stage, and / have al
ways found this to be the case.
Ie ] have been asked by one per-
son during the past year, | have
been asked by a hundred to state
my opinion of Doan's Kidney
Pills in private. | always have
the same story to tell, and reply
that it is the best kidney remedy
i'll the world today. Only last
week three different persons
drove up to my Office and asked
me about them. | will always
speak in the strongest terms pos
sible for them, for l have given
them a thorough test and know

We clip the following bit of
news from country letter in one
of our exchanges: 1.-The flies is
getting bad in this neighborhood. "
Now some folks think there is
nothing important about an item
of that kind. But they are not
there; they have no idea how
bothersome the flies do get in
some communities; how mean
they are about sliding off Of II
bald headed mans brow into his
plate of soup; how they will COM
NIT suicide by drowning in fell
lows last drink of whiskev, or
speck up his only Sunday collar.
The Texan says it is an important
item, when the flies get bad and
begin racing up and down a
mans nose when he's trying to
read, or sleep late in the morning
and carrying on all such nonsense
to the detriment of the peace and
dignity of the citizen, and that
it should not only he heralded
through the newspapers, but
openly condemned everywhere -

Colonel Polk and the Railroads.

Special 10 the Press,
FIT. Worth, Tex, May 20, 1901.
Since the resignation Of l.. J.
Polk as vice-president of the Gulf,
Colorado and Santa Fee, a rumor
has gained currency that he is to
be- associated with John w. Gates
and w. p. Eldridge IN the con-
siruction of a line of roads 40
miles long, extending from San
Antonio to Laredo. While moth
ing definite has been given out
regarding the report, it is belev-
ed the rumor contains an element
Of truth; that if the projected
line is built it will be an indie
pendent road
Colonel Polk and Mr.. Gates are
now in New York, it is said. and
are now arranging the financial
end of the pre- posed enterprise,
There is another railroad pro.
iected it is said, in which Col.
Polk is to be connected--the con.
structlon of a new line through
the San Saba Valley. The plan
is said to indicate that read is
to be built from Lometa on the
Santa Re, westward, through the
San Angelo country, thence north
westward through the cattle dis.
tricts. This line would tap the
Rio Grande Frisco svstem) al
Brady and the Santa Fe at Sar
Angelo, and perhaps connect with
the Texas and Pacific near San
Angelo.

1t is not often that newspaper man
admits himself vanquished: but a
young Philadelphia reporter recently
suffered defeat at the hands of
French valet, says the Philadelphia
Record. He was furnished with one
of these commodities when visiting rel
atives in Paris. whom. by the way, he
had not hunted up until he found him
self stranded. There were only two
suits in the young mans wardrobe
his street suit and his dress clothes.
Every time he came into the room the
valet was vigorously brushing the suit
that he did not have on. The energy
with which he brushed the clothes and
the uncticn and dignity with which he
would say Monsieur zee suit is ready,
grated on the reporters nerves. 1t was
unfortunate enough to be conscious of
a low exchequer and limited ward
robe without having a smiling, bow
ing Frenchman Haunting the fact in
your face. Every place he turned he
was haunted by the vision of the dust
ing valet, until he grew morbid on the
subject. Unfortunately for the climax
of the story the valet won out. The
clothes brushing became unendurable
and the visitor. succumbing to SUI
perior force, beat a hasty retreat from
the home Of luxury and worked his
way back to more democratic lands.

TROUBLED PROMOTERs.

The men connected with the promo
ton of the United States Shipbuilding
Corporation must be conscious of an
uneasy feeling in view of the steps
that are being taken to investigate
that concern. No doubt they thought
the settlement that had been effected
with those who were the plaintiffs in
the recent suit against that corpora
ton would have the effect of hushing
up the scandal. 1t seems, however,
that the Legislature of New York is
going to make an investigation of the
means used by the promoters of the
shipbuilding trust, and of other trusts,
to get the securities of these trusts
listed on the New York Stock Ex-
New York city has asked the Governor
of New York for a special grand jury
TO probe the shipbuilding scandal to
the bottom. This request, it is said,
has been granted.
Just what will be discovered is, Of
course, a matter of speculation, but
from the revelations when the recent
suit against the shipbuilding trust was
in progress II wouldn't be surprising IL
enough evidence were found to justify
indictments against a number OF per-
sons well known In the business and
financial world of New York.
OF course back Of this movement
to throughly investigate the shipbulld-
ing scandal Is the widespread senti-
inent that the time has come 10 put an
effective check upon practices that
have become altogether too common

which investors have been induced 20
