Talks for Consumers League.

The work OF the Consumers league was
presented by Mrs. Decker, the national
president. She urged the women 10 use
goods bearing the label and SO create a de-
mand for them. She explained that the
label is a guarantee that the goods bearing
them are made under sanitary and humane
conditions. 1t It is the clubwomans weapon
, for fighting the sweat shop and child labor,
for It cannot be attached to garments into
the making of which either OF these evils
have entered.
So far the label is used chiefly on women's
white garments and ready-made clothing.
Mrs. Decker has recommended to the in
dustr.al committees that lists be prepared
OF the merchants in the various cities who
carry the labeled goods and that the list
be of n size convenient for a woman to
carry in her pQcketbook In this way the
women propose to extend the demand

Doan's Kidney Pills Cure
Testimony of Omaha

A bad back is a back that aches after
every little exertion. Sick kidneys cause
that kind of weak back, and kidney
bad back will never be strong and sound
until the kidneys are cured.
Deckache is really kidneyache-the aching
of overworked, inhamed, congested kidneys.
II comes right in the small of the back,
where the Kidneys are located. Sometimes
the ache is heavy and duh. Again it
changes to sharp. darting pains, like the
thrusts OF knife. It seems impossible TO
stoop or lift. or bend the back. All night
the aching keeps up leaving the sufferer
tired and lame In the morning.
Backache is a warning that should be
needed IL calls attention to the fact that
the kidneys are giving out, that diabetes,
dropsy and Brlghts Disease are threat
ened. Don't walt Help the kidneys at

Court



LINCOLN. Oct. 5.-CSpecial. 1.-The judge
ment Of the Hall county district court
sentencing William Turley Of that county
TO seventeen years in the state peniten-
tiary for the murder of Norman T. Bliss
has been affirmed by the supreme court.
The court finds no error in the record.
Wife Gets Judgment.
The court affirmed the Judgment for "a
900 in favor of Caroline M white of Ian
caster county and against j. Peter Jes-
sen and Henry Giles, saloon keepers. and a
bonding company, for damages sustained
by reason Of sales Of intoxicating liquors
to the husband of the plaintiff and the
father of her children. The defendants
sought to show in mitigation OF damages
that the wife, since his abandonment, has
commenced proceedings for a c,<orce. The
court holds that the defendant is not en-
titled to rely on such plea. The court
holds that where a husband becomes an
habitual drunkard and abandons his family
and ceases to provide for its support,
whether such loss of support is permanent
or otherwise is question Of fact for the
jury.

dition was as comfortable as could be ex-
