There was a pain in the hips and Joins and I thought it was some inward trouble as 1t came on me after my first child was born. The doctors did not seem to know the cause of 1t for their medicines did not relieve me. kept hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills and final ly got box at the H. W. Lake Drug Co. and began using them. There was a noticeable improvement and when I had taken one box the pains in my back and loins had disappear ed. I got a second and a third box. and since using them I have never had the slightest return of the trouble. My husband was also cured of lame back by using Doan's Kidney Pills and I know of many others who have found the remedy beneficial"

HIDDEN DANGERS.

Uric acid is deadly poison that is produced in the human body. and 1t is the duty of the kidneys to collect this poison from the blood. and to pass it safely out of the system, to- gether with all waste water.
 It is the presence in the body of an excess of uric acid that causes so much pain and suffering, and D many of the aches that are commonly attributed to rheumatism.
 The kidneys are bean-shaped or gane, composed of masses of little tubes. all of which pour their secre- tions into a main channel that leads Co the bladder. In this way the kid neys pass ofY more than an ounce of poison every day when in health.
 But 1t does not take much to set the kidneys back, and when they get behind. they can not right themselves without help. The uric acid begins to clog the kidneys, causing that dull. heavy aching in the back. and sharp twinges when stooping or lifting. It erystallizes in the muscles and joints. and every turn or twist brings keen est torture. It attacks the nerves with neuralgia and scietica. It brings headache. dizziness. languor. and dis orders of the urine.
 Try a good kidney medicine. If you have any of the above symptoms. There is nothing else so prompt and effective as Deans Kidney Pills, and

SIR ALEXANDER SWETTENHAM. ish authorities nevertheless are not through with the matter, so far as the governor is concerned. In his letter Mir. Howard takes occasion to inform this government that his majesty's gov ernment is causing official inquiries to be made as to the authenticity of the letter credited to the governor.
 An interesting chapter was added to the case when it became known that on Jan. 20, after Admiral Davis and his ships had sailed from Kingston, Brigadler General Wint, commanding the army of pacification in Cuba, on the request of the acting British min ister at Havana, transmitted through Governor Magoon, had sent to Kings ton five hospital tents and files, twen- ty-eight wall tents and flies and fifty two conical wall tents all complete. These had been reported by the Brit ish authorities as urgently required. Secretary Taft was prompt to give his approval upon his arrival here on Mon- day morning from South Carolina. and 1t Is understood that the tents are now on their way to Kingston.
 Vice Consul Orett has reported an- other shock yesterday. In response ! to specific inquiries from the depart ment he cabled that Sperry, Burke. Watson and wife. Mrs. Case. Joseph and Mary Eustace. Edwards and daughter and Taylor were all alive.
 The following cablegram summarlz- ing the situation in Jamaica as the re- suit of the earthquake was received from Mir. Orett:
 .No loss of life at any of the hotels at Montego Bay, Port Antonio, interior towns, Knutsford Park. Constant Springs or any other hotel except at i the Myrtle Bank hotel. which was completely wrecked. Many deaths oc- cured there, chiefly among the em. ployees.
 "Aiany bodies found in the business portion of the city. which was devas. tated by fire, were burned beyond rec. ognition.
 Consulate has opened. Another shock Tuesday afternoon. No damage Trains are now running. Two piers were saved"
 A Kingston cable says that the publi' cation of Governor Swettenham's letter to Rear Admiral Davis has greatly in tensified the resentment of the resi- dents against him. Governor Swetten ham was interviewed here as to the Davis incident. The governor said that he had not invited Rear Admiral Davis to land sailors. Asked if he indorset the action taken by Rear Admiral Da wis. the governor replied, That is [ matter between myself and Rear Ad miral Davis, to whom I must refel you" The governor said that his refer ence in his letter to Rear Admiral Da wis to tramp pillaging the house of { New York millionaire was merely | jocular parallel
