KEEP The kidneys WELL
Health is Worth Saving, and Some Belfast
Reople Know How to Save 1t.

Many Belfast people take their lives in their
hands by neglecting the kidneys when they know
these organs need help. Sick kidneys are re-
ponsible fer vast amount of suffering and ill
health, but there is no need to suffer nor to re-
main in danger when all diseases and aches and
pains due to weak kidneys can be quickly and
permar emily cured by the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills. Here is a Belfast citizens recommends
ton:

Me-, says: 81 can strongly recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills. have already told what this rem
edy did for a member of my family in a testimo-
NAL published in 1904. still think just as highly
of Doan's Kidney Pills as did at that time and
keep supply of them in the house all the time.

The Shoe Situation.

New England footwear manufacturers are
now receiving delayed orders from whole
salers, who urge prompt deliveries, but pref
erence is given to old contracts. While the
the shoe trade has shown much improvement
of late, shipments still fall short of the same
week last year The persistent strength of
leather has at last convinced Shoe buyers
that no better terms are to be expected,
which accounts for the postponed business
now coming forward. While purchases Of
leather are limited to current requirements,
there is ID better demand aud few large
sales are made by Boston buyers. Export
trade has also improved, some good con-
tracts being placed by British concerns.-

SOCIALISTS MAYBE
FOR TEMPERANCE

By United Press Leased Special Wire
CHICAGO, May 9.-For the first time
in the history Of the Socialist party
in the United States there is to be an
attempt made to place them on record as
favoring prohibition. And incidentally
there is a lively convention due Monday.
The Minnesota delegation. which arrived
to-day comes instructed to work for the
adoption in the platform of prohibition
plank. They have already received assur-
ances Of support from the delegations Of
both Michigan and North Dakota. ,rhis
means that there is a real sentiment in
the party against the liquor party and the
proceedings will be watched with great in
terest. While it is conceded there is no
possibility OF a strong prohibition plank
being incorporated in the platform. there
is certain 10 he something TO be accom-
plished along that line. possibly a modified

KEPT UP A TREE
BY ANGRY HOGS
TOOmey and Hired
Man Escape From ChinCO-
league Island

GEORGETOWN, Del. May 9-Treed by
hogs and held captive by them for a day
and a night was the unusual experience
OF Captain John Toomey and two OF his
hired men. when they attempted to catch
his swine on Chinooteague Island, where
they had been placed last fall The island
is covered with woods and underground
and, as the pigs We're allowed to remain
without molestatien until last week. they
became very wild.
Captain Toomey and his men, however
thought nothing OF that fact, and landed
on the island TO kill some of them. No
sooner had they found the pigs than tho
animals turned on them, and to save
themselves from harm each man climbed
a tree in record time.
All afternoon and all that night they
were compelled TO stay in a crainped
position up the tree. while the pigs below
kept careful watch. Several times the men
attempts.S-to slide down and make a run
for II. but every time the tusks OF the
angry hogs drove them back to their place
of safety
Nearly overcome from loss OF sleep. the
men feared each moment that they would
drop from their perches, but managed to
hold on through the long night until day
light, when they eluded the pigs. which
had begun to feed in a nearby thicket
Reaching their boat, they hurriedly
pushed on anxious TO leave such place.
on reaching Franklin City. their story
brought forth roars Of incredulous laugh
ter, and finally Captain Toomey became
so incensed over the doubts cast on his
story that he sold the hogs on the island
at sacrifice on condition that me buyer
Butcher Samuel Collins, would go after
them.
Collins and several men took the mex
, trip, and, after spending all one morning
/, in trees, returned to verify Captain Toom
ey's experience. Not until then did IN,
people in Franklin really believe In,
