their favorite sport. The occasion is
the annual meeting of the National
Fox Hunters Association. The hills
of Nelson county are infested with
foxes, and the prospects are very
promising for fine sport. The hunt
ers meet with no opposition in this
section. The farmers are glad, in
many instances. to see the hunters
and the hounds. because. they say, it
will save their chicken roosts.
Though the National Fox Hunters
Association has existed more than a
decade no annual meet ever has been
held outside of Kentucky. The reason
for this is that the Blue Grass state
contains more fox hunters than any
other state and in no other section is
the sport followed so enthusiastically.

Special to the Herald.
Minneapolis, MINI, Nov. 12.-Talks
with leading delegates to the twenty
sixth annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, which was
opened in this city today, indicate
clearly that the foremost issue in the
convention is the question as to
whether the federation shall continue
active in politics, as recommended by
President Gompers. Many of the old
wheel horses of the federation, men
who well remember that it was its
entrance into politics that wrecked
the Knights of Labor when that or
ganization was in the prime of its
strength and influence, are strongly
opposed to the Gompers idea and
make no secret of their intention to
fight 1t on the convention floor if
necessary.
Normana Han was crowded at 10
o'clock this morning when the con-
vention was called to order by Presi-
dent Gompers. About five hundred
delegates were present. President
Gompers called to the platform d. J.

senting the Canadian trades con

CURE YOUR KIDNEYS.
Do Not Endanger Life When a Pales-

Why win people continue to suffer
the agonies OF kidney complaint, back
ache, urinary disorders, lameness,
headaches. languor, why allow them
selves to become chronic invalids.
when a certain cure is offered them?
Doan's Kidney Pills is the remedy
to use, because it gives to the kidneys
the help they need to perform their
work.
If you have any, even one, of the
symptoms of kidney diseases, cure
yourself now, before diabetes, dropsy
or Bright's disease sets in. Read this

WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect Of the First Warning Symp-
toms is the Prime Cause Of so
Many Deaths from the Dreaded
Bright's Disease.
1t is Easily Durable in the Early Stages.

Kidney diseases are so destructive to
human life because they do not manifest
alarming symptoms until the constitu-
ton is seriously weakened and the
strength exhausted. Then, too often,
the remedies employed by many physi.
clans are of Indifferent or doubtful value,
and the patient rapidly sinks under the
disease. The wisest course is to apply
reliable kidney and liver remedy on the
first APPEARANCE of the symptoms. A
little uneasiness in the small of the back,
digestive troubles, bowel irregularities
and disorder in the urinary organs are
matters of small moment in the estima-
ton of strong men and women, yet they
have serious meaning. They show
clearly that the kidneys are suffering
and need help, which must be forth
coming at once to prevent serious, per-
haps fatal consequences. A few doses
of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would
prove of incalculable value in restoring
the weakened organs to health. An
investment Of one dollar in bottle of
Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is
yet in the early stage will save hundreds
of dollars in doctors bills, besides the
suffering that would surely follow should
The disease be allowed to fasten itself in
The body. The excellent curative power
of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to
The first stages of kidney disease. It is
equally eficacious in severe or chronic
cases. Physicians have used it as a last
resort, in cases that defcd their best
efforts, with the most brilliant results,
and ii has shown its superiority over the
many so-called kidney cures, now being
loudly advertised, in instances innu-
merable.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine prickly Ash Bittcrs with the
large figure 3 Ia rcd on the front label.

OAK AND PINE.

CIasses Of VvoOds.
Though generally assumed that oak
is the wood capable OF being put to the
greatest variety OF uses, it is known, as
a matter of fact, that the pine Is really
the most used, on account of Its great
abundance. Nevertheless. the timber Of
the oak combines in itself the essential
elements of strength and durability,
hardness and elasticity In degree
which no other tree can boast, unriYal-
ed as material OF sbipbuilding, also
superior in architecture. cabinetmak-
ing. carving mill work, cooperage and
fnnumerable other purposes, while the
bark is of great value as furnishing
tan and yielding bitter extract in con-
tfnual demand for medicinal purposes.
But of uses for the pine details would
he well nigh endless. The timber IS in
valuable in houses and ship carpentry;
common turpentine IS extTncted from it
in vast quantities. and immense sup
plies of tar, pitch, resin aud lampblack.
In the manufacture of matches, and,
above all. paper pulp, thousands and
tens of thousands OF acres of pine for
ests are cut down every year. and,
briefly. the timber Of this tree, consti-
ty1ting as it does the chief material OF
English and American builders, may be
said to be more used than all other
kinds of svood put together.
