Mrs. Howard Clark, living on Fourth

pleasure to recommend Doan's Kid

painful and lame and there was not a
moment when I was free from pain.
Upon rising in the morning felt
languid and was so stiff and sore

BOOSTERS ACTIVE
Novel Ways OF Doing Things in
Other Towns.

Minnesota Mascot: The following
novel way of getting people to clean
up their yards was adopted by the
Redwood Falls health officials ac-
cording to the Granite Falls Tribune:
cover in Redwood Falls the Board of
Health got tired of notifying the
people to clean up and adopted an
other plan that worked. The board
employed the photographer to take
views of the dirty alleys and corners
with piles of rubbish and posted
such views in the postoffiee with
ample explanation as to where and
who was negligent. 1t worked like a
charm and the city was put on a
sanitary basis"
Browns Valley Tribune Over sixty
school children have entered the con-
test for identifying and improving
their home yards and grounds, and
the work they have accomplished
was viewed by the committee some
weeks ago. A very good beginning
has been made, and the interest taken
by many of the contestants is most
encouraging. 1t has been suggested
that more attention be paid to get
ting rid of the dandelions and other
weeds, as all weeds lend an air of dis
order to home grounds, no matter
how much effort has been made to
have attractive flower beds and well
trimmed shrubs and trees. The COM
mittee will make the rounds again
within the next two weeks, and ask
that each child who has entered the
contest make an especially dilligent
effort to put their yards in the best
possible condition. The last visit will
be made about August first, and as
soon as possible after this date the
prizes will be awarded to the children
who have done the most to improve
their premises.

Flowers For the Table.

Never use very strongly scented f1ow-
ers for the table. Such flowers as
gardenias, stephanotis and hyacinths
should be avoided. Their strong per-
fume in hot room makes some peo-
pie feel quite faint while it takes all
appetite away from others.

any housewife can put it into prac-

MAYOR JOHNSON
 LOSES IN FIGHT Democrats of Ohio Defeat His
 Convention Plans ATTACK HUDSON HARMON Cleveland Man Says Harmon Ought Not To Be Candidate For Gov
 ernor When He Is Allied
 With Railroads.
ATTACK HUDSON HARMON

Columbus O., May By a close vote Johnson of Cleveland lost his fight tonight for the control of the democratic state convention which tomorrow will nominate state ticket, candidate for United States senator and four delegates at large to the national convention at Denver.
 A test of the relative strength of the Johnson and antl-Johnson factions of the party, the latter led by Harvey c. Garber, chairman of the democratic state central committee, and William l.. Finley state oil inspector, was taken on a minority re- port which proposed to seat a contesting delegation from Lucas county, will be unfavorable to Johnson. The report was rejected by a vote of 463 to 430 With the ? votes from Lucas county, which could not bo cast on this proposition, the anti Johnson followers have a total of 490 votes or 16 more than a majority.
 A sensational attack on Judson Harmon, former attorney general of the United States, and candidate for governor, was made by Mayor Johnson in a speech to the convention. He declared that 1t would be a mistake for a party to nominate a candidate for governor who was an at torney for railroad, who was allied with the railroad interests and opposed to the initiative and referendum and the fran chise tax His mention of the name of Harmon, however, brought forth the most notable demonstration of the opening ses- sion of the convention.
 Mayor Johnson, according to present plans, will attempt to prevent the nomi- nation of Harmon, who is the candidate of the anti-Johnson forces for governor, by having the name of A. P. Sandle of Ot- tawa county, clerk of the Ohio senate, presented to the convention in addition to that of Atlee Pomerene of Canton, in the expectation of drawing votes from Harmon.
 Former Governor James E. Campbell of Butler county will be nominated for Uni ted States senator.
 F. w. Hanley of Dayton. w. S. Thomas of Springfield, John J. Lentz of Columbus and Judge Michael Donnelly of Ma poeon are slated tonight by the anti Johnson men for delegates at large to the national convention.
 The platform, which is still in the hands of the committee on resolutions, will in- dorse William J. Bryan for President and instruct the delegates at large ot the na- tional convention to vote for him.

He contended that whereas only s25S an acre had been received, much more could have been obtained if the department had not sold the land for the lowest price fixed by the law. MT.
