Easy to Mix.

What will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from New York daily paper, giving
a simple prescription, as formulated by
noted authority, who claims that he
has found positive remedy to cure
almost any case of backache or kidney
or bladder arrangement, in the follow
ing simple prescription, if taken before
the stage of Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup .sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well in bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at home,
when asked regarding this prescription,
stated that the ingredients are all
harmless, and can be obtained at a
small cost from any good prescription
pharmacy, or the mixture would be put
up if asked to do so. He further stat
ed that while this prescription is often
prescribed in rheumatic Affections with
splendid results, he could see no reason
why it would not be splendid remedy
for kidney and urinary troubles and
backache, as it has peculiar action
upon the kidney structure, cleansing
these most important organs and help
ing them to sift and filter from the
blood the foul acids and waste matter
which causes sickness and suffering.
Those of our readers who suffer can
make no mistake in giving it trial.

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK
BODIES.
Kidney Diseas,s Cause Half the Com.
mon Aches and Ills Of Cresco
PEOPLE.

AS one weak link weakens chain,
so weak kidneys weaken the whole
body and hasten the final breaking
down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come, and there is an ev-
err increasing tendency towards dia-
betes and fatal Bright's disease. There
is no real help for sufferers except
kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and cure every kidney i'll.
Cresco cures are the proof.
w. F Moulton, City Officer, Cresco,
Iowa, says: sFor some time contin-
ual dull ache across my kidneys caus-
ed me much misery, particularly so if
l stopped or lifted. | tried several
remedies:.whieh were guaranteed to

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.

III, as Doc Bruner says, the federal
Iofficeholders of Kentucky are forcing
Taft on the people, did the federal
officeholders OF Ohio, Iowa, Nebraska,
Oklahoma. New Mexico and Michigan.
force Taft on the voters of those
states? Wonderfully influential set of
men those officeholders. Wonderfully
impotent set Of men the Republicans
have elected to state offices. Bruner
pays a deft compliment to the federal
administration, which has picked out
such a strong. representative body of
men to fill the Offices at its disposal.
The trouble with Bruner and his
ilk OF lick spittle politicians. is that
they think politicians are everything
and the people nothing. Doc actually
believes, in his little way, that a
bunch of politicians can handle thu
great mass of voters anyhow they
please. and where Taft appears strong
est Doc Immediately believes the fed
eral officeholders are strongest.
Give Fairbanks all the federal
officeholders and all the state office
holders. and then give the Republi-
cans of Kentucky half a chance to
express themselves. and they will over
whelm the whole organization. II is
not just the federal officeholders
(though The least of them is more
than the peer Of Doc Bruner, Good
ness knows) that the Frankfort ma
chine is fighting; it is the sentiment
OF the people Of Kentucky That is
what makes it so hard to break down.
II was thought that one declaration
from Frankfort after the senatorial
election. would rally the people of the
state for Fairbanks: but Fairbanks
will not carry a single congressional
district.

LET LIS BE AMERICANS.

National pride in achievement and

thanks TO the Opposition press" Do
we observe conditions in India and
Formosa and then in the Philippines
and realize that our colonial policy
is best; admit that we are race SUI
perior to the Japs, and as a nation
morally in advance of Great Britain:
Let us regard the great Panama
canal project as national undertake
ing in WHICH every citizen Is to share
the honor or the stigma, aid 1t in
stead of knocking. talk it up instead
of running it down. and glory in ouA
national proves.
What a wonderful navy we have!
Its remarkable achievement is the
talk of the world. Are we not proud
of such ships and men?
Our diplomacy is recognized as OF
the sterling, straightforward kind,
that has put us in dominant posi-
ern hemisphere; but no one would
learn 1t from the American press and
public.
A great moral wave is sweeping
this country that is exposing what
ever corruption exists in the ma
chinery OF government and private
enterprise. The fact that these things
are being ruthlessly exposed is proc
of national character. and should be
a matter of satisfaction to the Ameri-
can public. but is 1t?
We went to war with Spain for the
cause of freedom in Cuba, and most
honorably have we acted our part
Haven't we self-respect enough to ac-
knowledge our own virtues?
The truth is we underestimate our
own character, and the pity is that
other people will accept our estimate.
Whoever heard OF an Englishman do
nouncing his own government the
way some little Americans do theirs?

DIGS Up rot OF GOLD.
Charles II. Wells, of Mayiield. Ky.
Digs Up $500.

Joseph Lugan, of Hickory. Ky.
dropped into the Herald office last
Friday and told the Herald OF a
remarkable find Of an old-fashloned
bean pot buried in the ground near
Noodyille, Ky. The pot contained
$500. all IN gold and silver: the
gold pieces were five, ten, twenty and
fifty dollar pieces: the silver pieces
were dollars and halves. The find
was made by a young man named
Charles H. Wells on Tuesday Of last
week on the land OF Mr. l.. c. Mears.
where J. J.. Thurman was setting up
a sawmill. Wells home Is at May
field, KY. but he was raised near Muir
ray, Ky. He had been employed by
Mr.. Thurman to level up a foundation
for the mill and in doing so uncover
ed the pot OF gold aud silver. Aside
from being slightly rusty and discol-
ored by its long secretion II is other
wise in good shape
II is supposed that IL might have
been buried in this spot by an old
miser who lived in the neighboThood
long ago. but who has been dead for
many years. lie left no family nor
any near reiatives-so the money be-
comes the actual property of the find

Governor Patterson, OF Tennessee,
II not a good governor, at least, tries
to be>a good politician. He, visited
Clarksville to get a personal glimpse
of the night rider situation. We re-
call also that when a vacancy occurred
on the circuit bench recently in the
Montgomery county circuit, the gov
ernor passed by the name OF the at
torney general. who fearlessly has
been prosecuting night riders. and
promoted another to the bench.
Maybe Governor Patterson can fool
the outside public by visiting Clarks
willie, and convince the night riders by
ignoring the attorney general. At any
rate, we are quite sure the governor
of Tennessee has nothing to fear at
the night riders hands.

RAILROAD NOTES


Superintendent Harry McCourt.
Chief Engineer IA. r. Stafford and
other high officials OF the Illinois
Central. We're here yesterday accom-
panied by Superintendent Egan and
Roadmaster Blaess. of the Louisville
division. After a'conference with To-
cal officials the party left last night
at 6:15 o'clock for Cairo. II is un-
derstood that the purpose of the trip
to Cairo is to arrange for a new train
schedule. under which the train leau.
ing here at G:15 p. m. will leave
about one hour earlier in order that
northern connections may be made.

ed cars this morning than at any time
since the holidays and more switch
engines and crews were at work get
ting out the big freight trains. The
increase in traffic has had cheering
effect on the employees generally. as
II means more work in every depart
ment.
a long train load of company coal
was hauled into Paducah ON the Iii

came from the western Kentucky
mines and will be stored on sidetracks
near Paducah to be used in case the
miners go ont on strike and render

mines. There were about 20 ears in
the lot and It is said more Will be
brought during the next week.

THE POLICE BILL.

II has never been our good fortune
TO inspect that formidable compilation
Of complex sentences. known as an
amendment TO the charter OF second
class cities, bill to remove the police
force from politics, which Governor
Wilson denominates wolf in Sleeps
clothing, a partisan bill in fCn-parti-
san clothes" so we are willing to
abide by the governors opinion of it.
He has studied it and We have not,
though we tried ever so faithfully TO
find out. both before and after its
passage, just what the substitute
measure might be.
We understand that II was compli-
Gated and its ultra provisions for APP
peal clear TO the court of appeals
from the police commissioners rulings
in case of the discharge of an officer,
not only protected a policeman from
compulsory participation in partisan
politics, but prevented the board from
interfering with his activity should

politics.
From the governors expression we
judge that the title of the bill sug-
gested measure to remove the police
force from politics when the real pur-
pose of II was to permit a reduction
of the police force, If desired. The
original bill. simply repeating the
charter provision for a minimum of
so policemen. was clearly and hon
estly a measure restoring to second
class cities their right Of local self
government.
The satisfaction We derive from
the situation. is that the bill the gov
ernor vetoed was not the original de
signed in Paducah. although it carried
with il the provision we were seek
ing. However, the important thing
was the license bill. We are sorry
the police bill did not meet with tn.
governors approval; but If the bill
was deceitful in its terms, the gov
ernor did right in vetoing it, and we
are obliged TO him for studying II.
