CRYING FOR HELP.

The kidneys cry for help.
Not an organ in the whole body SO
delicately constructed.
Not one SO important to health.
The kidneys are the filters Of the
blood.
When they fail the blood becomes
foul and poisonous.
There can be nc health where there
is poisoned blood.
Backache Is one Of the first indica,
tions of kidney trouble.
1t is the kidneys cry for help. Heed
it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are what is
wanted.
Are just what overworked kidneys
need.
They strengthen and invigorate the
kidneys; help them to do their work;
never fail to cure any case of kidney
disease.

says. When l first learned about
Doan's Kidney Pills and went to the
Laramie Drug company's store for
them the pain in my back was just
commencing. l used the treatment as
directed and the aching ceased. So
pleased was l with the speedy cure
that l advised a friend Of mine to try
the remedy, and, following my advice,
she took a course of the treatment.
The results were equally as pronounc-
ed as in my case. This, L think,

my Office was not very rushing, and
time hung heavy on my hands, before
l had attempted journalism, and no
dream of my present dazzling literary
success had entered my mind, l rashly
offered to assist applicants for pensions
in attracting the attention of the gen.
eral government, at SO much per head.
One hot day in July while l sat in
my Office killing flies with an elastic
band and wondering If my mines would
ever be quoted in the market, a middle
aged man came in and, splitting calmly
into the porcelain cuspidore, began TO
tell me about his service as a soldier,
and how he was wounded, and wished
to secure a pension.
He said that several attorneys had
already tried to procure one for him,
but had failed to do so, giving up in
despair. l examined the wound, which
consisted of a large hole in the skull,
caused by a gun-shot wound. He was
almost entirely prevented by this
wound from obtaining a livelihood, be-
cause he was liable at any moment to
fall ~insensible to the ground, as the
result of exercise or work. l told him
that l would snatch a few moments
from my arduous duties and proceed
to do as he requested me.
Then l began a very brisk CORE.
spondence with the interior department.
l would write to the commissioner of
pensions in my vivacious but firm
manner and he would send me back
a humorous little circular showing me
that l had been too hasty and prema-
ture. I never got mad or forgot my
self but began a little farther back in
the history of the world, and gradual
ly led up to the war Of the rebellion.
In reply the commissioner would
write back to me that my chronology
cal table was at fault and l would
cheerfully correct the error and pro-
coed.
At this time, however, my client be-
came a little Respondent, several years
having elapsed since we began our
task. So to my other labors l had to
add that Of cheering up the applicant.
Time dragged its slow length along.
Months succeeded months and the
years sped on.
The interior department never for
got me. Every little while l would get
a printed circular boiling over with
mirth and filled with the most delight
full conundrums relative to the late un-
pleasantness. These conundrums 1
would have my client answer and
swear to every time, although l could
see that he vas failing mentally and
physically. He would come into my
office almost every day, and silently
raise his right hand and with uncov-
Iered head stand there in a reverent
latitude for me to swear him to some
thing. Sometimes I had nothing for
him to swear to, and then l would
make him take the oath of allegiance
and send him away. l wanted to keep
him loyal If l could, whether he got
his pension or not.
The last work had been nearly COM
pleted, and the claim had been turned
over to the surgeon-general's Office,
when the applicant yielded to the
crumbling effect of relentless time,
and took to his bed.
1t was a sad moment for me. l
could not keep back the silent tears
when 1 saw the old man lying there SO
still n SO helpless, nj remembered
how rosy, and strong, and happy he

Casper's City Election

There was no contest in Casper's
municipal election this spring, Mayor
kimball being reelected, and Messrs.
Wood and Duhling being satisfactory
TO everybody. During Mr.. kimballs
administration there has been no iric,
ton of any kind, and as it was very
important to have a business admins,
tration during the ensuing year. pol,
tiles and personal differences were put
aside and men were put in who have
been tried and who have proven their
worth to the town. This is the second
time in ten years that there was but
one ticket in the municipal election.

looked years and years ago, when he
first asked me to apply for his pen
sion.
l wrote the department that II the
claims could be passed upon soon, !
would keep my client up on stimulants
a short time, but that he was failing
fast. Then I went to the bedside of
the old man, and watched him tenderly.
When he saw me come into his
room, although he could not talk any
more, he would feeDiy raise his right
hand, and l would swear him to sup
port the constitution of the United
States, and then he would be easier.
1t seemed to me like a CHASTITY joke
for the old nan to swear he would sup
port the constitution OF the United
States, when he couldn't begin to sup
port his OWL constitution; but l never
mentioned it to him.
At last the blow fell. The surgeon
general wrote me that owing to the
lack of clerical aid in that Office, and
a failure of congress to make any ap-
preparation for that purpose, he was
behind hand, and could not possibly
reach the claim referred to before the
close of the following year.
Then the old man passed into the
great untried realm of the hereafter.
But he was prepared.
With the aid Of the government, I
had given him ar idea of Eternity and
its %vastness, which could not fail to be
of priceless benefit to him.
After the government had used this
pension money as long as it needed it,
and was, SO to speak, once more on its
feet, the money was Es mt, and the old
mans great-grandcL.1ien got it, and
purchased a lawn-mower, a Mexican
hairless dog, and some other neces-
saries of life with 1t.
l am now out Of the pension bust
ness. 1t is a good thing, for l find
that I am too impatient to attend to it.
II am too anxious for tangible results
in the near future. My desire to &C.
complish anything speedily is too VIC
lent and too previous.-Bill Nye.
