HaqerStoWn One of the Places
Where the Outcome Is
Watched For.
CASE OF CAROL ADAMS.
AND HAS MANY FRIENDS WHO
ARE HELPING HIM TO LAND
THE PRIZE.

Perhaps at no other place in Wayne
county is more interest taken in the
Palladium and Sun-Telegram pony
and cart contest that at Hagerstown.
One of the contestants is Carol Ad-
ans of that place, who is working
hard to secure the pony and cart and
who has friends who are interested in
his behalf. An interesting story re
garding young Adams is printed in the
Cincinnati Post as follows:
Rev. w. II. Poole, assistant rector
of Christ's church on Fourth street,
has begun an investigation of the pa
thetic case of Carol Adams, the Ha-
gerstown, Gnd) crippled boy who is
trying to win a pony and cart offered
by paper for subscriptions, so that
he may sell the outfit and use the
money to be cured.
If Rev. Poole finds the case a
worthy one he has been authorized by
a Cincinnati woman of wealth to make
arrangements to bring the boy to Gin
cinnati and to have him examined and
treated by the best specialists in
Ohio.
the treatment and only asks in return
the joy of knowing that she has done
a good deed. She has absolutely pro-
hibited Rev. Poole from making public
her name.
The wealthy philanthropist's atten-
ton to the case was attracted through
a story published last week in The
Post
The story told how Carol, when he
became crippled, set out to gain the
money that would pay for his cure
instead of spending his time bemoan-
ing his fate.
The lad has entered a contest
wherein one of the papers offers
pony and cart to the boy who will get
the largest number of subscribers.
He has been writing letters to peo-
pie he knows and having his friends
work for him, but even with this as
it was feared he would fall be-
hind in the race. because he was I'M
able to get out and make an active can
vass.
After the Post printed his story. peo-
pie from all parts of the country began
sending to him for details of how they
could send in subscriptions through
him, and now it seems assured that he
will win, but if he does he may not
have to sell the outfit, if the Cincinnati
carries out her plan. Rev.
Poole is having the Posts correspond
ent at Hagerstown make an investiga-
ton of the case, and through Rev.
his philanthropic parishioner

CHANGE BEING MADE.

Among passenger men the opinion
prevails that one of the results of the
new 2-cent passenger rate laws will be
the abolition of what is known as the
certificate form of ticket, emitting the
bearer to a lower rate for return pass
age than is paid on the going trip. The
Western and Southwestern roads have
already voted to do away with this
form OF tickets the end of the year.
Since they have decided to make 2
cents per mile their minimum fare as
we'll as their maximum fare there Will
be no necessity for the certificate
style of ticket, millions of which have
been issued annually in past years.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is inha1n-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

HIDDEN DANGERS.
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That No
Brownsville Citizen Can Afford
to Ignore.

Danger signal No. 1 comes from
the kidney secretions. They will
warn you when the kidneys are
sick. Well kidneys excrete clear,
amber fluid. Sick kidneys send
out thin, pale and foamy, or a
thick, red, ill-smelling urine, full
of sediment and irregular of pas
sage.
Danger signal No. 2 comes from
the back. Back pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute, tell you
of sick kidneys and warn you OF
the coming of dropsy, diabetes
and Bright's disease. Doau's
Kidney Pills cure sick kidneys and
cure them permanently.
Mrs. c. H. Blain, living out on
the Bluff, Corpus Christi, Texas,
says: My grandchild, about eight
years old commenced to be troubled
by kidney or bladder ailment
about a year ago. At first I could
not conceive what was the matter,
however the symptoms got more
pronounced and 1 watched her
closely. She seemed to have no
power to retain the kidney secre-
tons and also complained of a
pain in the back of her neck and
head. Procuring Doan's Kidney
Pills, 1 was gratifed to see the
change for the better within very
short time. 1 have great faith in
Doan's Kidney Pills and can
endorse them.
