THE PRESIDENTS OPINION.

There is no moral differ
ence between gambling at
cards or in lotteries or on the
race track and gambling in
the stock market.
One method is just as per-
nicious to the body polite as
the other kind, and in degree
the evil worked is far greater.
But it is a far more difficult
subject with which to deal. -
President ROoSeaeit, in special

BAD PIRATES
ARE POOR men
Can't Pay Lodging at Sheriff Hcnry's
Hotel and Are Given to Fort
Shafter Authorities.

Once upon time there were two
bold, bad. men who ran away from
the drudgery of shining officers boots
and cleaning guns at one of Uncle
Sans war stations, and went down to
the sea, where they quietly appropri.
ated handsome craft and sailed away
across the blue. They didn't go far,
these daring men, Smith and Duesen-
berry, for, having eaten something
that did not agree with them they
were slightly indisposed, as 1t were,
and gracefully steered the nose Of
their pleasure yacht, the Lady, to.
wards the shore of Oahu, where after
several days, they were discovered
and asked to return to the city.
Judge Dole, of the United States
District Court, took an interest in the
grave duo. and upon his word, Sheriff
Henry has since been keeping them
as his guests at his very excellent
hotel.
However. today they swore that
| they had no money with which to pay
their bill, or fine, as it is sometimes
called, and consequently they were
told to go forth and seek what they
could find. They hadn't gone very far
when Uncle Sam came passing by
and he insisted that they return With
him to that beautiful Fortress Shaftef
Having no other alternative, they
have went" and will probably do a
little free work for the country, re.
ceiving board and lodging TRANSLATED
meaning dread and water') for their
only compensation.

career of Soldiers Two as pirates. II

Why Colds are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordinary
colds and recovered from them without
treatment of any kind, do not for a
moment imagine that colds are not dan
gerous. Everyone knows that pneumonia
and chronic catarrh have their origin in
a common cold. Consumption is not
caused by cold but the cold prepares
the system for the reception and de-
velopment Of the germs that would not
otherwise have found Judgment. 1t is
the same with all infectious diseases.
Diptheria, scarlet fever. measles and
whooping cough are much more likely
to be contracted when the child has a
cold. You will see from this that more
real danger turks in cold than in any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure a cold
is to take Chamberlain s Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures affected by
this preparation have made it staple

world. For sale by P. ID. Cottingham

WHAT The KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily. when unhealthy
some part of this impure matter is left
in the blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms pain in the
back, headache. nervousness, hot, dry
skin. rheumatism, govt, gravel, disor-
ders of the eyesight and hearing. dir
illness, irregular heart. debility. drow-
siness, dropsy, deposits in the urine.
etc But If you keep the filters right
you will have no trouble with your kid
neys.
A. Fred Hartman, mail carrier liv-
ing on Market ST., Snow Hill, Md,
says -Four or five years ago my kid
neys became disordered caused no doubt
by being out in all kinds of weather and
carrying mail over the rough country
roads. If | contracted cold it would
invariably settle on the kidneys and
caused me much pain and discomfort.
The complaint grew on me until the
kidneys became so congested they felt
like two hard knots and began to suf-
fer with intense darting pains across
my back The secretions became ir-
regular and unhealthy and my condi-
ton became serious when was adj
vised to use Doan's Kidney Pills and
procured a box at p. ID. Cottingham

in accordance with the directions and
obtained almost immediate relief. |
