NOT TO BE uNPRorEciEp.

When we remember the scare caus- ed in this region by the report that the Spanish fleet was coming into the Sound to destroy New Haven and pos sibly Montowese, it is cheering to mo- tice that If we have another scare of that kind while the big fleet Is in the Pacific we shall not be without hope. The thoughtful and protecting Navy department is planning special work for the torpedo boats and destroyers on the Atlantic coast while the battle ships are absent. They have been plac- ed under an officer who will be super Iintendent of the mobile defenses. with the plan that these craft shall be op- erated off the eoastil in conjunction with the land Notifications. It is pos sible that plan of practice work will be devised, with the idea of establish | ing unity of effort to be used against a foe approaching from the sea It is to this end also that the ASsthusa, originally water boat, will be fitted out at the Norfolk navy yard for ser vice with the torpedo boats. The larger ship will have accommodations for the medical officer and the pay of hcer, together with the facilities fol storing supplies which cannot be car ried by the torpedo boats and destroy CTS. There will also be on board thc Arethusa a sick bay, so that the tor. pedo craft will be self-sustaining in z way at distance from the base O
 operations. In this way the mobility O the torpedo boats will be increased.
 Mobility is a good word, and it i

Tn single cos tune of the hour may be found the most whimsical combination of the spectacular even the absurd, with an extremely eommonsense detail, while every woman as she walks expresses 8 standardization in dress.

The Congregationalist approves of the postponement for three years more, by the national council at Cleveland, of the union with the Methodist Protestants and the United Brethren. It will not do, it says, to hurry the thing simply because the great majority approve of it. since the vigorous minority must be won over, and not compelled to submit. If this union is perfected in twenty years, . | it says, "it will be one of the fastest knowing ecclesiastical mergers known to Church history"

Perhaps the army revolution of deep
est interest to the soldier himself was
that effected in 1923. when for the first
time he was put in trousers. The an-
nouncement from the horse guards
took the following remarkable form:
"IIis majesty has been pleased to ap-
prove Of the discontinuance Of breech-
es. leggings and shoes as part of the
clothing Of the infantry soldiers and OF
blue gray cloth trousers ana half boots
being substituted" In order to indem-
nlfy the clothing colonels' for any
hardship which the new order might
cause it was decided that these gentle
men should no longer be called upon
to provide the waistcoat of Tommy,
but that Tommy should himself supply
st out Of his shilling a day. To reas-
sure him It was pointed out that he
was in a position to do so with COM

never before had anything to give me
so much ease as Doan's Kidney Pills.
1 suffered from bladder trouble for
several years and / had three Of the
best physicians in Wilmington treat
me but ! got worse instead of better.
All my physicians told me that my
complaint was caused by disorders OF
the Kidneys I suffered constantly
from pains in the region of these
organs and / was told that / had a
stone in my bladder which caused in
amation of this organ. The secretions
at times were very dark and bloody
at other times of a white, milky ma
ture. at times they contained a cloudy
sediment, and at others, it was dark
and clotty, and if the secretions were
left 20 stand would form a thick.
flamation of this organ The secretions
and the passages We're always scald-
ing and painful ] was told that the
only thing TO help me was an operation
to remove the stone from the bladder.
While I was considering the matter,
Doans Kidney Pills we're brought TO
my attention. I got a box and began
using them. In a couple of days ]
noticed I had less pain when 1 uri-
mated, both before and after as well
as while voiding the secretions. 1
kept on taking them for some time
and used several boxes I cannot say
whether that stone dissolved and came
away without my knowing it or not,
but the pains left me, that smarting
and burning disappeared. the secre-
tions became normal with n healthy
clear appearance. / consider Doan's
Kidney Pills a reliable remedy and

for them. You can use my name as
