For GROWING Girls.

West Pembroke, Me-, April "a
Mrs. A. L. Smith, of this place, says
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith,
emphasizes her recommendation by
the following experience:
"My daughter was thirteen years old
last November and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last week and
would then pass off. In a month she
would have the spells again. At these
times she would eat very little and
was very yellow; even the whites OF
her eyes would be yellow.
"The doctors gave us no encourage
ment, they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
spell. OF course, we continued the
treatment until she had used in all
about a dozen boxes, and we still give
them to her occasionally when she is
not feeling we'll. Dodd's Kidney Pills
are certainly the best medicine for
growing girls
Mothers should heed the advice OF
Mrs. Smith, for by so doing, they may
save their daughters much pain and
sickness and ensure healthy, happy
future for them.

passed the Stout bill to prevent I'M
proper influencing of employees or
agents against employers by means OF
gifts, gratuitous or otherwise. Anotn-
er bill by Senator Stout was passed
and requires the state superintendent
to prescribe a commercial college
course and to countersign diplomas or
such colleges as shall offer tnlS
course.
The Wisconsin legislature adjourn
ed Thursday night for a brief Easter
vacation and will return on Monday
to the remaining work Of the session.
which will occupy three Or possibly
four weeks. Several Of the most I'M
portant matters are still to be settled.
The capitol building controversy has
not been more than half thrasned out,
and the opponents and friends OF the
Cass Gilbert plan are on the alerI.
There is reasonable certainty that the
whole matter will rest for two years,
until the next legislature meets. Inc
fight is fostered by the Milwaukee
architects who were defeated in the
competition for plans by Cass Gllbert,
and these opponents succeeded IN de-
feating the proposition to have the leg
islature go to st. Paul to inspect the
work of Gilbert in the new Minnesota
state souse. Allies to these are mem
bers who fear the vast expense neces-
sary to execute the Gilbert plan.
The railroad rate commission Dill
has passed the assembly, but another
and different measure is practically
completed by the senate committee,
and the fight will take place in that
house. 1t is said that W. D. Conner
Of Marshfield, chairman OF the La FOL
lette Republican state central commit
tee. learned in Chicago that Senators
Froemm, Stevens and Wipperman nad
expressed a determination to vote
against a commission bill, and, it is
said the chairman of the La Toilette
faction declared that il this be true, II
meant the defeat of the bill and the
refusal of the governor to accept his
election to the United States senate.
A lengthy communication from GOV.
La Toilette, setting forth the need OF
law providing greater safeguards
against railroad accidents, was pre-
sented. 1t dealt largely with statls-
tics and cited comparisons with Eng
lish railroads, where accidents are
only one-tenth as numerous as in this
country, although a greater total OF
passengers is carried. The governor
urged law placing the responsibility
for all accidents where it belongs,
iuries to determine as between the
companies and employees. All acci-
dents should be reported to the state.
During the years 1903 and 1904 the
number on deaths from accidents on
the railroads in Wisconsin were 1924.
The governor would have a thorough
investigation Of all accidents, and he
recommended the enactment of CO.
employee law similar to the one re-
pealed in 1880. Railroad employees, in
particular, he said, should be more
fully protected.
The Warner civil service bill was
advanced in the assembly after killing
an amendment requiring present hold
ers of jobs to take the competitive ex-
aminations.

a Heavy Fine.

Under the Elkins law, any railroad
company which pays rebates in any
form, or any shipper who accepts
them, is liable to a fine Of from $1,000
to $4,000, upon conviction. 1t also
prohibits the carrying of freight at
less than the published tariffs. The
Interstate Commerce Commission is
empowered to detect and prosecute
violators of this statute. President
Knapp of the Commission states that
since this law was passed, rebate pay
ing has been as rare as forgery.

Odd Fancy INDUCED in by New York
Woman Collector.
About the oldest fancy in which
collector has INDUCED is that of Mrs.
BERTHE Delafield, who seems to be bent
on getting together all the eyeglasses
in the country. She already has hun
dreds of them, with history to al
most every pair. Many Of the spec
tacles came from Maine, where the
old-fashioned kinds, with extension
bows AMI side lights, were worn long
er than anywhere else in the Union.
They are bound in horn, pewter lead,
silver, gold, tortoise shell and even
rubber-the last named dating from a
period when the word had no special
significance as applied to the eyes.
Prominent in the collection is pince-
nee said to have been worn by En-
press Eugene. Mrs. Delafield has also
a monocle believed to have been the
property of Lord Beaconsield, and,
whereas its history is not guaranteed,
it is easy to believe the dashing "Diz-
zy'' would wear one of those things,
even when premier. The prettiest
specimen is a lorgnette that belonged
to Madam de Maintenon.-New York

BICYCLE NOTICES TORN DOWN.
OnaIaska in Ferment Over Pro-
posed of Ordinance.

OnaIaska in a Ferment Over Pro-
posed Of Ordinance.
All of the young people and many
older ones at Onalaska are excited
over the threatened enforcement of an
old ordinance against bicycling on
sidewalks. Public school teachers
are among the malcontents, as every
street in the city is covered with
loose sand from three to six inches
deep and this means practically the
extinction of bicycles in Onalaska.
From o'clock until dark the other
evening the streets were lined with
groups of wheelmen talking excitedly
about the ordinance, occasionally
breaking up for mad spins on the
sidewalks.
Signs put up by order Of the council
were torn down after dark and the
general determination is to ignore
the ordinance, the proposed enforce
ment of which is charged to deliberate
malice No arrests have been made.

business and hasn't been tempered
