Does your back ache? Do you get up lame in the morning? Do you feel dull and tired? Does 1t hurt you te bend over, to life anything, to get up from a chair? Do you have sudden "catches," or stitches, of pain in the back Does a dull throbbtng ache settle in the small of your back and bother you day and night? Do you sometimes feel that you simply cannot straighten up?
 If you have backache. be careful not to make the very common mistake of treating 1t as a muscular trouble. Do not rub the sore place with lint- ment. nor put on plasters. for the seat of the trouble is inside-in the kid neys. which lie just beneath the small of the back. on either side of tho spine.

 MONTGOMERY TESTIMONIAL.
 J. P Howell. living at Bibb Street, Montgomery. Ala. says: For long time I suffered with kidney trouble. The disease first showed itself in an attack of backaohe and later on my kidneys became disordered. thought these symptoms were due to cold which I had contracted and that it would leave me. Such was not the case however. for instead of getting better. 1t became much worse until finally l had to see a doctor, What bothered me the most was the dizzy spells which attacked me. I procured a box of noan's Kidney Pills and they gave me 50 much relief that I got an- other and kept on taking the remedy until I was cured. The dizzy spells, the headaches and the backackes en- tirely left me. and I am now in the best of health. have no kidney trouble and have not had any in over a year.

AN OLD IDEA IN NEW FORM.

-
The idea Of the lakes -to-gulf water
way, now ugitating the people OF the
West, was born, the Indianapolis News
recalls, In the brain of Louis Joliet
1888 years ago, after Indian guides had
led him up the Illinois River from the
Mississippi and thence by way OF the
!Des PLANES to the short portage be-
tween that stream and the west fork
of the south branch OF the Chicago
River, which flowed into the lake. In
a letter written August !, 1874, Joliet
declared that with one canal to be
made "by cutting one-half OF league
OF prairie" vessel built and floated
on the great lakes could easily sail
to the Gulf OF Mexico" That was the
lakes to- the-g idea in embryo.
Joliet was born in Quebec In 1915,
and died in 1900. He was educated for
the priesthood but In the course OF
his studies at the Jesuit College iho
evinced decided taste for hydro
graphy, and after graduation decided
to explore the West. He acquired n
knowledge Of Indian languages and
Western topography. and was selected
by Talon in 1872 to push through to
the Mississippi.
He and Pere Marquette, says his
biographer. studied over the route,
drawing up maps from their own
knowledge and Indian reports, laying
down rivers, tribes and natural fea-
Mississippi They met Indians on the
way. and having gone far enough down
to be certain that the river flowed into
the Gulf of Mexico. and not into the
July 18th, assembled the Illinois and
reached Lake Michigan. Joliet at once
set out to report his success. but his
canoe upset in the Lachinc rapids
his maps and papers, and barely es-
capped with his own life. Thereafter
he directed his energies in other d.
rections, but his explorations settled
waterway was practicable. And now
after the lapse of centuries, the Presi-
dent Of the United States is lending
a movement to put the Joliet idea into
effect.
An investigation OF the proposed
lakes to- gulf deep waterway is now
in progress under an appropriation OF
the last Congress- said President
Roosevelt in his speech at Memphis
yesterday. 1--WE shall await its results
with keen interest The decision is
obviously Of capital Importance to our
internal development. and scarcely
less SO In relation to external COM
MERGE"
All. Of which recalls the saying Of
the Preacher:
The thing that hath BEEN it is that
which shall be; and that which is done
is that which shall be done and there
