WHY WOMEN SUFFER.

Women have 90 much to go through In life that 1t is pity there is so much needless suffering from backache, headache, dizziness, lan- guor and other common aches and ills of kidney complaint.
 Doan's Kidney Pills have brought new life and strength to thousands of women afflicted in this way.
 Women are prone to kidney trou- ble. They have so much indoor work to do, so much lifting, bending and stooping; they are bound by custom to tight. heavy clothing. They get little outdoor exercise. and any littls cold may bring on a kidney weak ness.
 Don't worry if you feel tired and dragged out-if you have backache and bearing-down pains. headache. dizzy spells, faintness and lack ambi- ton. Don't think it's some trouble peculiar to the sex Men suffer in the same way when they have kidney trouble.
 Ask yourself this question: "Ara my kidneys we'll? The condition of the kidney secretions may give you an answer. If there is brick dust sediment. or q stringy settliug in the urine: If passages are too frequent and copious. or scanty and painful. it fs time to begin using Doan's Kidney Pills. Delay may run you into

Last weeks excessive plunging op- erations fortunately created only a temporary disturbance, Incidentally they proved the hazardous position of the short side of the market says Banker Clews. There are compari- lively few stocks for sale; partly be- cause investors and the public recog- nize that recuperation is the order of the day, and partly because the big operators are opposing any import ant reaction at this time. AS long
 as improvement in industrial. and mercantile affairs continues it will be difficult to check the present hopeful temper which prevails in financial circles. Wall street always looks far ahead, and is now actively discount ing. all the improvement that is likely to take place before next January. It may be overdiscounting that prob ability; but if so, it is only moving in accordance with precedent. By far the most important element in
 the stock market just now is the worldwide ease in money. This ease is not so much consequence of in crease in the gold supply as some would have us believe, although that
 factor cannot be ignored. The pres ent glutted condition of the money market is chiefly attributable to the accumulation of funds which always follows panic, regardless of the pro- duction of gold. Business activity has been a minimum, and funds came out of hoarding as confidence revived.
 These two movements caused a piling up of idle funds in the banks, which
 now hold extraordinary reserves in
 spite of the fact that the crop move
 ment has begun, and that usually currency is flowing freely to the west
 and south at this season. They also account for the record breaking ac-
 emulation of gold in the American
 and European banks more than the
 enormous production of the Rand dis
 triet.

Among the forty or more represen.
 tative men who visited Washington
 on certain day during the last ses. sion of congress to ask the appoint
 ment of a non-politicaI Tariff com.
 mission was the president of the Ma.
 tional Grange, an organization hay
 ing a membership of more than one million farmers. This gentleman,
 says a writer in American Industry,
 spoke with the authority of these million farmers when he requested that congress ensure relief from the extortion of the present tariff by hay. ing existing schedules examined by a Tariff commission of experts. consist Ing in part of manufacturers expert enced in cost of production. That the astute president of the national grange was right in saying that our farmers are directly interested in an honest adjustment seems to be proved by President Roosevelt's recent state ment when appointing a commission to suggest methods for bettering the farmers condition. The chief exec utivs said in part: ''1t Is at less, as important that the farmer should get the largest possible return in money. comfort and social advantages from the crops he grows as he should get the largest possible return in crops from the land he farms.- What more direct and immediate way is there of helping the farmer to get the largest possible return in money, confort and social advantages from

MARINE DEVELOPMENTS.

Canada's statistics of marine traf- fic during the season of 1907 have
 made their appearance rather late,
 but they are interesting, neverthe- | less, because they show that the Canadians have not been idle during
 their lake shipping interests. The | water-borne traffic of the Dominion for the year 1907 was the largest on record. ..,s
 This development has been mainly on the great lakes, upon which for some years the Canadian merchant marine had declined to a negligible
 factor. The rehabilitation of the Dominion's merchant marine on fresh water was due to the shifting of the center of grain production through the settlement of the north- western provinces, and to the de- velopment of iron interests on the north shore of Lake Superior. Last years volume of traffic aggregated 20,543,639 tons, against 10,523,1S5 tons in 1906. For the 10-year period the improvement was 13,925,164 tons, or 210 per cent. The principal expension in canal traffic last year was in the business of the Sault Ste Marie canal. which experienced an increase of 5,601,943 tons over the traffic of 1906. During the decade the Canadian traffic through tho Sault Ste Marie canal increased ACT per cent, while the tonage of the United States increased only 315 per cent. The Canadians are now using much larger vessels than formerly, owing to the improvement. in the Welland canal since the days when the Dominion's merchant marine -as principally wooden sailing craft.
 The rapid growth of Canada's marine traffic is coincident with de- velopments which tend toward the St Lawrence river route as the outlet for the export trade in grain raised in the Northwest, and which cause corresponding decline in the export trade through the old lake and canal and lake and rail routes to New York and Boston. Montreal has been mak- ing special efforts to capture the ex- port trade by reducing port charges as much as possible and thus creating a line of least resistance to which grain for export will move automatically. Last week the harbor commissioners of Montreal announced a new rate for the handling of rail-carried grain that will still further disturb the old shipping ports. The new rate will be '0.9 cents bushel, against a former charge of 1 5-s cents. The general marine trafic of the lakes has been very light during the present season, but there will doubtless be a heavy movement of grain for export before the close of navigation, and Canada is trying to capture the lions share of this business.

None are so blind as those who will not see. The editor of the Hart ford Times tries to justify its stand on the Lilley, boss rule and other questions by referring to the Demo crat's attitude as puzzling. The Democrat maintains that it would have been very easy to knock out the republican machine at this time had the Times and other papers of the state handled the Lilley case in the manner it deserved. Not having battered the machine We are of the opinion that Congressman Lilley, if he gets the nomination will prove a weak candidate, and finally we are pleased that this is so for we think a strong democrat, of which the party has several can make the con- test very interesting, and we would not be surprised to see such a demo- crat elected governor of Connecticut. Aside from all this it's pretty plain that the papers that have slobbered over Lilley and the submarine inves- tigation are helping the republican to maintain it's grip, al- though at the same time they are de- the custom that allows few men to make nominations for all the people of the state.

MUNICIPAL INSURANCE.
Mayor Reilly's Scheme Ridiculed by
 Insurance Register.

The Insurance Register, a monthly paper devoted exclusively to fire and life insurance matters, recently de- voted considerable space to Mayor T. L. Reilly of Meriden and his scheme for municipal insurance. ~The following is an extract from the Rig isters article:
 This good mans brains appear to have been dazzled by his being vest ed with a little brief authority We think that he is quite mistaken in his idea that his proposition, if submit. ted to the Connecticut legislature, would be fiercely opposed by the fire insurance companies, that they would rush to Hartford with a pow erful lobby to antagonize it. But this is only one of the errors into which he has fallen. However, doubtless some of the same inhabi- tants of the little burg over whose destinies he presides will recall the Sls,000,000 conhagration in Port land, Me, away back in the sos, the incidents of Chicago and Boston, Jacksonville, Fla, Waterbury, Conn, Paterson, N. J., Rochester. N. r., Hull and Ottawa, Canada. and Balti- more and San Francisco. Moved by the memory of the experience of these municipalities they will be like ly to see how valuable would have been the guarantees of these cities if they had prior to their baptism of fire undertaken to pay to their citi- zens the losses occasioned thereby, how light would be the burden, of taxation upon those citizens if they had undertaken honestly and faith fully to meet the obligations as- sumed, and how much of a boom any of them would be enjoying ill this good year 1908, if in mad fren- zy, they had made such an insane plunge as Reilly recommends his fel- low citizens to make.''

 The picturesque features of the great west are we'll symbolized in the general makeup of the picture of The Young Ranchman," which decorates the front cover of the Sel,- tember American Boy, and the con tents of the magazine will prove de. lightful reading.

Among the many fine short stories in this issue are: "Kenton's League with the Sun." telling of some thrilling experiences of the Kentucky pioneer with the Indians: The Story of Spot. a Mustang" shows the splendid devotion of . pony to his young master; "The Penanee of Michael Moran" points out the good that Is in even the most troublesome boys: Facing Death ia Balloon" a thrilling story of the experience of a boy in a balloon: 'Barefoot's Outing shows what kindness did to poor little street Arab, and The Education of a Chip munk" tells all about the training of one of these interesting little ami mals. All the articles are of more than usual interest. the titles being: Unusual American Children, {" Lawn Tennis,r "A Home Industry for Boys" What Can a Young Man do, How a Battsrhy Is Born" and Farming the Salt Sea- The varI- ous departments are fuil of the things that appeal to the boy with q hobby.

Our grand street neighbor needn't worry so much about a democratic candidate for governor. One will be secured at the proper time. Because he has not been doing the state for several months in an auto, with but tons, badges, smiles and other things is no sign that the candidate will not be forthcoming at the proper time. Our republican friends have enough to worry over this year with out borrowing trouble.
