with weak kidneys and wish to tell

had but little appetite, and from a
healthy, happy child, became weak and

the first box of Doans Kidney Pills,

continued giving them to her until the

CAN'T GET THEM ALL
County Commissioner Says
Lake County Can't
Build All Roads.

County Commissioner Oscar Krinbill
said this morning that there have been
more petitions in Lake county for
gravel roads than the county would be
able to build in the next three years.
Most of the applications for improved
roads have been in the central part
Of the county and in the creek town
ships. Already Lake county is fam
Gus all over this part of the country
on account of the great mileage of
country boulevards which have been
built in recent years and it appears that
the good work is still going on.
Only the lack of funds will delay the
building of the roads. Each township
| is limited in the mileage Of country
roads it may build by the amount of
the taxes which are collected within
| its limits.
In the northern township where there
! is a great deal of taxable property and
where the large number of railroads
add to the total assessed valuation
there could be built greater number
OF roads than are now contemplated but
III the country districts where they are
in even greater need of good roads
they have reached the limit beyond
which they may not go and and it viii
take them three years to accumulate
funds sufficient to cary on the work
that is already projected.

AT TOWLE'S FRIDAY, MAY 8,
eTHE LION AND THE MOUSE.

1.-THE LION AND THE MOUSE"
What will prove a genuine dramatic
treat will be the presentation here on
Friday night, May s, at Towle's opera
house by Henry B. Harris of the phe-
nomenally successful play. The Lion
and the Mouse" which is now in it's
twelfth month of an uninterrupted run
at the Lyceum theater, New York, and
which has bade new records in the
theatrical annals by being the only play
to run through an entire summer sea-
son in New York City without a single
break.
The Lion and the Mouse" is from
the pen of Charles Klein, the author
of The Music Master" and is unani-
mously voted by both press and public,
the most absorbingly interesting play
of the period
Mr.. Klein has taken as his theme
the political and money interests of
the country pitting against them hon
esty and social problem. That a single
man can amass a fortune of a thousand
millions during his lifetime is argued
in Mr.. Klein's play to be impossible and
honestly done John Burkett Ryder
| the central character of the play be-
| lieves that no one has a right or lib
erty to interfere in any way with his
colossal schemes and because a judge
of the supreme court renders decisions
unfavorable to his interests, Ryder re-
moves him from the bench. Tamper-
ing with the honesty of a supreme
court judge brings fortha complica-
tions of circumstances which as Mr.
Klein has woven them holds the in.
terests of the audience at fever pitch
until the last curtain falls
| Mr.. Harris has selected an excen-
tionally fine cast to interpret the roles
and the play which will doubtless prove
the dramativ event of the season

ruins, some of them dismembered, and
sewed into gunny sacks. These were

Did Mrs. Guinness set fire to the house
