WHY SO WEAK2
Kidney Troubles May be Sapping
Your Life Away. Brownsville People
Have Learned This Fact

When a healthy man or woman
begins to run down without ap-
parent cause, becomes weak, Ian
guild, depressed, suffers backache,
headache, dizzy spells and urinary
disorders, look to the kidneys for
the cause of it all. Keep the kid
neys we'll and they will keep you
we'll. Doan's Kidney Pills cure
sick kidneys and keep them well.
J.P. Anderson, carpenter, liv-
ing in the southern part of
Corpus Christi, Texas, says:
My Kidneys have given me more
or less trouble for the past two
years. A sharp twiuge of pain at
times, darting through my back,
1oins and the secretions were too
frequent and caused much annoy
ance, especially in the winter. My
son saw Doan's Kidney Pills ad-
vertised and brought home a box.
1 used them and obtained great
benefit. The action of the kidneys
was corrected and my back has
given me no trouble since. I can
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills

AFENcE WITH A TUNE.
Laredo Boy Saves His Mothers Nerves
By invention

Laredo has a musical genius
who, through his wonderful gift,
combined with mechanical and in
ventive bent, has been the saliva
ton of the highly sensitive nerves
of his family. If you go by his
house and carelessly allow an UNI
breIla or walking cane to strike
against the pailiugs of the front
yard fence, you will be startled to
hear that instead of a mouotonous
clatter as is usually produced
through such a procedure, a dis
tinct musical effect is produced,
The tune played by the pailings
is La Machiche, the irrisistable
Spanish ''Danzou" to the sensuous
beat of which one can hardly walk
out of an oriental two-step. The
result is that the victim either is
forced to cease striking the fence
or to proceed along in ludicrous
gait that makes him appear and
feel ridiculous. At the same time
the inmates of the house, far from
being annoyed as usual, are RECALLED
with sweet musical strains.
For some months, the boys
mother, who lives in a neat cottage
in the western division of the city
with a well kept front yard and
nice pailing fence, has been driven
almost to distraction by small boys
passing the house and invariably
tuning the pailings into an i'm
provised mattracca by holding
stick against them. Her son finally
told her that if she would give him
the privilege of rebuilding the
fence he would either cure the boys
of the habit or make the nuisance
less offensive. Borrowing sheet
of music from one of Ayala's
musicians he sawed off all the pail
ings in lengths proportionateto the
notes of some of the first bars on
the sheet he happened TO get hold
of. He then carefully nailed the
stats in place again in the order of
the tune. The fence presents a
very peculiar appearance and gives
plenty of room for criticism from a
fence-buider' point Of view, but
as musical instrument it is sue:
cess of the first type.-Laredo

, The Free Pass Question.

Frank Leslie's Weekly thinks
the editors of New York State are
wiser in their generation than their
brethren of the quill in Texas.
The Legislature of Texas, says
that paper, which distinguished
itself by the number of freak bills
1t placed on the statute books,
passed an anti, free pass act pro-
hibiting all passes and also the
sale of any transportation for
anything except money" A similar
provision was in the New York
utilities bill. but when the atten-
ton ofEthe Governor and the leg
7slative leaders was called to it,
not only was this provision with
drawn, but a clause inserted dis
tinctly permitting the exchange of
transportation for advertising.
It is assumed by the New York
paper that the act will be declared
unconstitutional when it is passed
upon by the Supreme Court, and
chat whether it is or not, it will be
practically imperative because of
the ease with such law may be
circumvented without the violation
Of either its letter or its spirit if
The railroads and the newspapers
see ft to enter into contracts by
which there may be an exchange
~af checks with the understanding
shat the railroad which buys
certain amount of advertising space
For cash viii get like return in
cash for SO much transportation,
Both calculated on the basis of
regular rates.
It would probably surprise Les
lies Weekly. the Courier Journal
and other Journals at a distance to
know that the general impression
IN Texas is that the clause prohibit
ing exchange of transportation for
anything but actual cash was aimed
primarily at the country news
papers for the reason that they
had been so insistent for law to
deprive members of the Legislature
of their free passes. San Antonio

IRON RIDGE MAN.
Leaders First Report of Visit Of

Some time ago, The Leader pub
lished an item to the effect that
Attorney Frank Lawrence of May
vile, Dodge county, was in Water
town in company with a couple of
farmers, to consult District Attor-
ney Kading relative to having a
warrant sworn out for the arrest of
Herman Bilgrien of Iron Ridge, on
a SO called 'bunco" game perpet-
rated upon certain farmers, at
which it was alleged that he ex-
tracted various sums of money
from them by frightening them
with a strong bluff that they we're
selling adulterated milk and that
unless they squared" matters with
him Bilgrien) action wo uld be
commenced against them in the
courts. The farmers claimed that
various sums were eXtorted from
them in this manner, the sum total
of which they claimed was a neat
little sum. For the publication of
the news at, the time, the Leader
was threatened with action for
criminal libel. In fact the threat
was 50 strong that the sheriff of
Dodge county visited WatertoWn
one day in the recent past armed
with a summons and warrant for
the arrest of The Leader man. Up
to the present time, the unsophi-
stiCated newspaper man has avoid
ed the clutches of the law and has
enjoyed the liberty that is also
a blessing privileged some other
human beings who are probably
more fit subjects for a penitentiary
term than the humble pencil pusher
of The Leader, who is opposed I'M
cOmpromisingly to anything which
savOrs OF graft.

the time relative to the object of
the visit to Watertown of the MAY

judged in the report from reliably

BRASS STOLEN FROM
CITY STEAM ROLLER
OIL CUPS AND NAME PLATE
HAVE BEEN TAKEN.
Probably the Work of Boys With
the Object of Selling to Junk
Observation-Disclosures Have SuS-
pICiOn-HdS Bad Effect on Pc
titiOn to Lessen License.

1t was not long ago that one of the
local junk dealers was arrested and
heavily fined for buv ing stolen brass
from Young lad. 1t was then thought
that this would prove an object lesson
to all dealers, as we'll as the youths of
the city. Now comes the report that
the city is loser through these petty
thefts Street Commissioner Gust
Chaser is mad through and through
and he certainly has reason to be.
Some thief or thieves have stripped
the city steam roller of It's brass oil
cups. Not only that, but they even
went so far as to remove four screws
and take the heavy brass name plate
from the machine. 1t is stated that
the authorities know who the guilty
patles are and that unless they return
the stolen plumber, prosecutions are
liable to follow. This recent act will
not have very favorable effect on
the petition of the Watertown junk
dealers asking the city council to les
sen the license governing junk deal
ers, hawkers and second hand dealers,
fixed by ordinance recently adopted by
the city council. There should be a
hearty cooperation with the author
tiles in an attempt to lessen these
petty thefts, rather than a bid to en-
courage them, as seems to be the
case in sumo instances. As far as The
Leader can see, the provisions of the
ordinance are not too severe and should
stand as it is and all made to live up
to the letter of the same. Recent
experiences are ample evidence of
this.
