Connecticut Women Are Finding Re

It does seem that women have more than fair share of the aches and pains that af1ict humanity; they must "keep up," must attend to duties in spite of constantly aching backs, or headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down pains; they must stoop over, when to stoop means torture. They must walk and bend and work with racking pains and many aches and kidney ills. Kidneys cause more suffering than any other organ of the body. Keep the kidneys we'll and health is easily maintained. Read of a remedy for kidneys only. that helps and cures the kidneys and is endorsed by people you know.
 Mrs Selina Jones of 200 Main St., Ansonia, Conn.,, says: ''I think if it had not been for Doan's Kidney Pills l would not be alive to-day. Seven years ago was in such bad condition with pains and aches across my back and other weakness that I was obliged to keep to my room, and was at times confined to my bed for six weeks before 1 could get around. Seeing Doan's Kid ney Pills advertised I began taking them and inside of week the terrific backache, pains and soreness across the Joins and the headaches had vanished as we'll as the feeling of general weak ness and languor. The kidney weak ness was also corrected and the dizzy spells had disappeared. I strongly en- dorse the claims made for Doan's Kid ney'Pills." ,"

WEATHER CONDITIONS AND
 CROPS.
 1 The dry weather conditions have be- come severe enough even for the hay makers. All crops are suffering but potatoes are just now receiving the I most injury as the dry weather blight is already beginning to show itself in some pieces. The deficiency of rain- fall covers the whole of June when only 1.5S in. fell, the normal for the month being about in. Thus far July is still more deficient with only one half an inch so far where there should have been over two.
 Ezra Keeler has been the guest of his son, c. w. Keeler, for a short time. The festival of the ladies of the chapel at the Iron Works, last week, was very successful and the results quite satisfactory as $50 was the net profits.
 The high temperature of Sunday has been exceeded only once in ten years, on July Is, 1900, it was 94, the 17th 95. the 18th 8. Some local thermometers show higher record but this is usually due to one of two causes either the thermometer itself or the position in which it is placed.
 Having has been rushed for the last ten days and many are now through though there is much to get yet. The crop so far has been secured in an un- usually fine condition as there has been none wet by rains as none have fallen.

General Demand

Of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir Of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir Of Soma is given
the preference by the Wcll-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale

read telegram that yellow fever had
become epidemic in all southern
cities, if l should announce that war
had been declared between Spain and
the United States, and 1000 men
killed in battle, your attention would
be instantly attracted. But 1 am not
so sure of persuading your practical
interest when l present to you the
solemn, disgraceful fact of the rail-
road death roll. During the eight
years from 1897 to 1904, inclusive,
there was steady increase in the
number of casualties. The total num-
Der of killed during that period was
62,213-as if community as large as
Salt Lake City had been wiped out by
a. sudden and terrible catastrophe
while 451,262 were injured-as If
every man, woman and child in Buff
falO had been manned or otherwise
hurt. If casualties continue to in.
crease at the same rate for eight sue
ceeding years, from 1905 to 1912, there
will be 1889 killed and 1,431 ,O83 in
jured. That is, at this rate there are
