DON'T WAIT FOR THE FATAL
STAGES or KIDNEY ILLNESS
PROFIT BY BISMARCK
PEOPLES ExPER-
@ FENCES

Occasional attacks of bachache, ir-
regular urination, headaches and dizzy
spells are common early symptoms of
kidney disorders It's an error to ne
glect these ills. The attacks may pass
off for time but return with greater
intensity. If there are symptoms Of
dropsy puffy swellings below the
eyes, bloating of the limbs and ankles,
or any part Of the body, don't delay
a minute. Begin taking Doan's Kid
'ney Pills, and keep up the treatment
until the kidneys are well, when your
old time health and vigor will return.
Cures in Bismarck prove the effective
ness of this great kidney remedy.
Mrs. NJ. E. Latham, living at sos
Fifth street, Bismarck, N. D., says:
| Il have been miserable for long
| time and think the trouble arose
from disordered condition of my kid
neys. My back ached constantly and
there was a dull grinding pain through
my kidneys. I could not stoop over
or lift anything without suffering sew
erely and my rest at night was much
broken by the too frequent action Of
the kidney secretions. Seeing Doan's
Kidney Pills so highly advertised,
procured a box at the Lenhart Drug
Co., and they helped me from the
first. l continued taking them and
received a complete cure, and am glad,
therefore, to recommend Doan's Kid

The only opposition to such o pro-
posal as that made BY Mr.. Meyer, said
New England Organizer Elisha Wint7s
er Of the National Association of Re-
tail Merchants to a reporter for the
Herald will come from such houses as
seek to put fraudulent goods before
the public, against which we have
heen fighting.
III have been visiting conventions in
various parts of New England for a
year past, and I am In close touch with
the rural sentiment. There has never.
vet been a parcels post bin which the
farmers have endorsed Heretofore
such bills as have been presented have
benefited the catalogue houses to a
discouraging degree. But a bill along
the Tines suggested by Mr.. Meyers adj
dress will not only meet every objec-
ton we have had to previous bills,
but will, moreover, give us more than
we wonld have dared to ask for.
Is Mr.. Meyer gives us recognition for
the first time to an extent we had new
er expected, and his proposal will ben
eft every one in this country except
fakirs and frauds.
We now have the Aubuchon bill,
which is being introduced in the Mis-.
souri, legislature. That bill provides
for the compulsion of honest adverbis.

LIVE N CHURCHES,
Prisoner Confesses Robbery of Con-
verse Home in Greenwich.

verse Home in Greenwich.
Greenwich, Conn, March 22.--~-
Chief of Police Ritch believes that
the perpetrators of the ten burglaries
that have taken place here recently
have been making their headquarters
during the day time in the churches.
Evidence that they had been making
them a lodging place has been found
both in the Episcopal and Congrega-
tional churches. In the Episcopal
church the rear door was forced and
the cushions of the pewa and other
Furnishings were found distributed In
such a manner as to indicate that
some one had been using the place
4 for housekeeping.
It was discovered that the poor
boxes had been robbed and that four
onertory plates, two Of them silver
and highly valued because they were
the property of the first Episcopol
church In Greenwich in the early part
of the eighteenth century, had been
taken.
The Congregational church it was
found, was entered by cellar win
dow, and the same condition obtained
inside as in the Episcopal church.
They made descent upon the estate
of e. C. Converse, the steel man, and
broke into the Office of his farm An
attempt was made to open the safe
and the combination was ruined. A
revolver. articles of clothing, money
from the cash drawer, and clothing
were taken. The police arrested a
suspicious looking Polander. He con-
fessed to having committed the Con-
verse robbery.
