from there committee Of five has

representing the dealers Of Kansas
Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma and
Indian Territory with instructions 10
take up the question of short weights.
The public is not informed whom this
matter is to be aiken up with, wheth.
er the operators or the railroads. A
dispatch concerning the matter says:
1t was stated that the evil has be-
come so great that II Is necessary for
the retailer to charge more for his
coal TO the consumer than he would
otherwise have to do"
There is no intimation in the pro
Ceeding that the retailer Is compelled
tC give the consumer short weights
Perhaps the word compelled" is in
rcpriate in that connection. Any
way. when the coal dealers them
selves complain OF short weights II Is
time for the consumer Ito look a lit
tie out" The legislatures Of the
states mentioned could do some goot
in that connection II they would tax,

Kidney Pills must not be COMPOUNDED with

IRENE cases. DR.. Leland williamson, OF
this place, heartily endorses Dodd's KID
ney Pills 'as a remedy Tor the various
forms OF the diseases of the Kidneys, pains
in the back, soreness in the region OF the
Kidneys. foul-smelling urine and cloudy OF
thickened condition OF the urine, DIS
charges OF pus or corruption, Gout, Rheu.
matism, Inflammation and Congestion OF
the Kidneys and all kindred complaints
Continuing, he says:
II could mention many cases in which
| have prescribed Dodd's Kidney Pills
with success. For instance, Mr.. Robert
Weeks. farmer. malaria haematuria OF
swamp fever three times, kidneys weak.
ened, continual pain and soreness in back,
which made him very nervous, had a little
fever and sometimes chilly. Urine change
able, but generally very high-colored, an
old chronic case who had taken much
medicine with little effect. After taking
Dodd's Kidney Pills about six weeks, he
was entirely cured and had gained fiftcer
pounds in weight. The last time | saw

HOW Two BEAUTIFUL WOMEN ESCAPED

Catarrh Robs Women of Health and Beauty.

Miss Amanda Johnson, Fairchild, Wis, writes:
81 write to tell you how much Peruna benefited me.
For n number of wears | had pain in my head around my
eyes, and thought it was because my eyes needed treat
ment, so went to an oculist and had glasses htted TO my
ewes and wore Them for some time, but felt no relief
whatever. In fact. felt worse than before, and came TO
the conclusion that the trouble wasnot with my eyes, but
with nv head and that it must be catarrh. AS so many
Of NV friends had used Pcruna with benefit for this
trouble, / thought | would try it. | was not sorry that
did so, for in a short time ! began to improve, and in
four weeks my eyes were in splendid condition, my
general health was much improved and all the catarrh
Of the head was gone. | was glad to get rid of this
