IA CONSTANT ANNOYANCE.

Half the nervousness. half the irri- tability that is so common in every day life, is really sickness. and in most cases a condition that accom- panies kidney trouble.
 It Is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid and other poisons. but when the kid neys are sick, and not doing their duty. the uric acid poisons permeates the body. and attacks body. brain and nerves. The irritation causes ner- vousness. irrftability. headache. dizzy spells; makes you languid, unfit for work. and inclined to worry over trifies. Besides. there is nothing more annoying than bad back. and backache Is the most common sign of kidney trouble. You feel lame and tired in the morning. suffer day and night with a dull aching in the back, and 1t hurts to stoop or bend or lift.
 Keep your temper cool, aHd get the 6dneys we'll. No person can feel cheerful and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills. taken b the beginning. will ret the kidneys elght.

The men who are worried because there Is no more money floating around have been accustomed to see so much that they feel as if the bot tom has gone out of everything. Norwich Bulletin
 Joseph G. Cannon is having the hardest fight of his life for re-elec- tion to congress, and if he wins, the contest will be taken to congress, where his opponents hope to prevent his reelection as speaker.-Norwich Record.
 Straw ballots do not amount to much, except as telling which way some of the hot air Is blowing. They are generally participated in by men who vote three or four times apiece and by boys who have been given campaign buttons.-Ansonia Sentinel
 If Nicholas Longworth, the presi- dents son-in-law, had only sprung that Roosevelt-Taft correspondence on the handing down of the presi- dency from time to time it would have saved all of the composition at this late date on the part of the newspapers.-Middletown Press.
 It is more strange than creditable that the fight against the registra- tion of students should be made more bitter than usual this year. If the word of man in the university. who says on his honor that he in- tended to make New Haven his res idence, cannot be taken, then there's little honor left in politics.-New Haven Register.
 MT Bryan has been twitting Judge Taft on the latter's failure to discuss the bank deposit guaranty issue in the west. The New York Times re- plies by challenging the democratic candidate to discuss the issue among the financial and business interests of New York city. He might do so without much fear of the eonse- quences. The New York Merchants Association last winter indorsed the Fowler currency bill. which provided a joint guranty of national bank de- posits.-Springfeld Republican.

Tn the knowledge that there is go- ing to be a steady demand each year for ore, the steel corporation is en- abled to plan years ahead and to pre- pare for mining at each point with
 reference to the character of the ore and the cost of getting it out, says the Iron Trade Review. Already 1t carries on its balance sheet about SIG, ,50O,000 of expenditures in it's mining propositions. practically all of which will come back in due course as the minerals are obtained, and the expenditure of the money in this way is regarded as an ultimate economy. It is an economy which could not have been practiced in the early days of Lake Superior mining, when the total capital invested did not begin to reach this figure. The s2,0o0.000 be- ing paid to the Great Northern ore trust as royalty for last year is not a

republican contributors for the Bryan and Kern fund from Iowa. New Haven Union.
 Sporting writers sometimes apply names to baseball clubs or polo teams which in some way or other connect them with the town or city they represent These terms are not used with any wrong intent and are frequently taken in spirit of fun. The polo season, however, has now opened and the New Britain team is again being alluded to as the Bank Wreckers. The reason for that was apparent last year perhaps, but there is no need of continuing it. The terms is an improper one, it isn't even expressive, the New Bri- tain people do not like it and those out-of-town writers who have been using it ought to quit it as being un- fair and distasteful to this city, New Britain Herald.

Continued treatment cures case of long standing.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are for tho kidneys only, and contain no poison. ous nor habit-forming drugs. They relieve congestion and inflammation of the kidneys or bladder, heal and cure the kidney tissues, drive oR dangerous uric poisons, dissolve and remove gravel, and rid the body of all watery waste.
 Thousands of r.res prove tha merit of Doan's Kidnes Pills. Here is case at home.
 A WATERBURY CASE.
 R. R. Calender. of 90 Bishop st. Waterbury, Conn. says: T have much confidence in Doan's Kidney Pills as remedy for backache. h my own case they brought freedom from every symptom of kidney trouble and rid me of pains in the back and the trouble has not return. ed since stopped using this remedy. I procured the pills at the H. ". Lake Drug Co. and it gives no pleasure to endorse such a reliable backache and kidney medicinal"

Congressman Lilley is now attack ing the lobby which holds up, directs and suppresses business in the Capi- tol at Hartford. MT Lilley has been there and he knows whereof he speaks. no doubt, but what did he do about it, when he was at the scene of action. He tries to place the blame for the lobby on the democrats. The democIatic party has had very little opportunity to show itself at Hart ford for many years, and Judge Rob- ertson never uttered truer words than when he said: ''Let the democratic party get in power in this state. Then the people will make their own laws, and will not be interfered with by the lobby" Congressman Lilley spoke in New Haven last evening. Here is part of his address referring to Wa terbury: ''In my own city of Water bury the street railway rights were granted to an alien corporation com- posed chiefly of Philadelphia capi- talists, in perpetuity and without a dollar of compensation. No doubt the franchise would have been eager ly accepted for a period of twenty five years, and with a provision giv- ing the municipality share of the gross receipts after the company had had time to get it on a paying basis. But the people were not vigilant in those days, and the agents of the company were on the job at Hart ford, and this source of vast income was lost to the municipality forever. To-day, owing to other legislation subsequently secured, the railway is grossly oyercapitalized, and out of the pockets of the people must come the money to provide fair return on the watered capital. The property could be duplicated to-day for less than a million dollars. If the franchise had been granted for quarter of a cen- tury only, it would this year revert to the municipality. It would sell for probably more than three and a half million dollars, the profit pay ing every dollar of our public debt of $2,500,000, or it could be leased for handsome annual revenue, or it could be operated at profit on three cent fares. This is only one case in many in our commonwealth. How did it all come about that our cities and towns gave away these millions and the relief they would bring from taxation or the improvements they would permit? The answer is always the same-the lobby"

Edward Polak, vice-prasident of the Bronx, New York, real estate brokers, has made this reply to an invitation to join in the prosperity parade for Taft and Sherman: With over 500.000 men out of employment in this city, fail to see the prosper ity you speak of, want no more of it. The only thing that can restore pros- perity is the election of Bryan. - New Haven Union.
 There are men in every city just like MT Polak. Perhaps that is why the Taft Marching club of this city is failure. It is pretty hard to get men to march and shout for shadows.

He had kindly smile and wave of the hand for those he met on the way.
