However. the President MP to a few
months ago was known to cherish
strong hope Of an election to the United

likes residence in Washington a por-

would continue to have official promI-

any city that might interest him. He
will undoubtedly do a great amount Of
literary work In the few years follow
Ing his retirement from the Presidency,
and Washington is a very c~ongenial
city for such efforts.

PRISON CONGRESS IN CHICAGO.


TraSOn NasOct0tt0os
The ANNUAL congress of the National
Prison Association attracted many prom
incns officials and students Of criminol-
osy to Chicago. The report OF the com
mittcc Of preventive and r~efornatory
work advocated A complete revision OF
our criminal code. II IL held that the
system Of fees charged ia the defense
and prosecution Of criminals is wroag. A
wealthy criminal should not be permitted
to pay for his defense y dollar more than
the State pays in defending a criminal
without financial backing. La he o.,inion
of the committee one of the grcatest 30
cial evils of TO day is the priyitegc which
the rich have OF escaping punishment for
their acts.

oners constantly watched by armed
guards. While admitting that in certain
cases it might be necessary, h. thought

suit of this policy was inevitably 70 mark

with resentment and hatred against all
who have a part in the administration of
the criminal law. Throughout all the
addresses at the congress the prevailing
tendency was in favor Of those methoos
which lead toward the reformation and
betterment of criminals rather than those
which are actuatcd by a spirit of revenge,
and much attention was paid to the asso-
~ciations being foDned throughout the
country for the purpose Of helping ex-
~convicts TO their feet.
Attorney General Bonaparta, address
ing the Prison Wardens' Association on
Wednesday. advocated the death penalty
for habitual criminals mad for attempts
to commit capital crimes. He argued that
the primary purpose of punishment was
to assure obedience to the law, aad that
in iuficting punishment the State looks
not to the past and not to the individual
who now suffers, but to oil the :ndivid-
uals who may hereafter fear to disobry by
reason of the sufferings of the one now
punished. The habitual criminal, h. said,
was a product of modern civilization. ass
our ancestors would have hanged him for
his first felony. lie did not favor hang

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK
BODIES.
Kidney Diseases Cause Half
the Common Aches and
Ills of Montgomery
City People,.

AS one weak link weakens a
chain, so weak kidneys weaken
the whole body and hastens the
final breaking down.
Overwork, strains, colds and
other causes inj ure the kidneys,
and when their activity is les
sened the whole body suffers from
the excess of uric position circu-
lated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor
and urinary ills come, and there is
an ever increasing tendency to-
wards diabetes and fatal Bright's
disease. There is no real help for
the sufferer except kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly
on the kidneys and cures every
kidney ill. Montgomery City
cures are the proof.
G.. M. Maupin, living in the
southeastern part of Montgomery
City, Mo-, says: 81 have never had
anything to surpass Doan's Kid
ney Pills for my back and kidneys.
l had much pain in the back and
top of my head when 1 suffered
from lame back and my kidneys
were out of order. l was COM
PEELED to get up five or six times
during the night on account of the
too frequent action of the kidney
secretions and often it was ac-
companied with pain. There was
a weary and fatigued feeling hang
ing over me the whole time. l had
taken several things which gave
me some relief but all failed. !
was advised to try Doan's Kidney
Pills and l got them at Crump &

ly helped me. 1 can sleep all
night now, my headaches have
gone and there is no lameness re-
naming in my back. My kidneys
are alright"
