The Amigo Republican has an edi-
torial on the reform movement in Wis
Wisconsin. 1t says:
''The class who scott at reforms want
the old world to wag along in the same
old way. They are ready
with their money and influence and even
their tongues and pen to belittle the
men, who would differ with their set
ideas.
''The man who will fight for an hon
est reform is a worthy citizen and
should be upheld by every honest man
and is, generally, but the class which is
always decrying reforms, and denounc-
ing reformers, usually have an end to
gain by defeating the reforms proposed.
We of Wisconsin have passed through
the fire and it has been patent that
those who were denouncing the reform

What Did He SAY?

1t was a windy afternoon, and the
young man was very well dressed,
from his neat bowler hat to his smart
ly polished shoes. He seemed to
know that he was worth looking at,
for he kept glancing at himself in the
shop windows and pulling down his
cuffs. At the corner one OF those sud
from nowhere blew off his bowler hat
He saw a hat rolling down the
street, through every bit of mud and
dirt visible Of course he hurried off
after it. But the hat had a long start
on him. Once he saw it topple over
and lie quietly on the stones for mo-
ment. Then a puff Of wind raised it
and sent it wheeling along at an in
creased speed.
At last the hat ran into the curb
stone near a street lamp, and with a
pounce he was upon it. All flushed
and breathless, he picked it up. and
then he leaned against the lamp post
to rest.
A man, also flushed and breathless,
came running up and took the hat out
of his hands.
I'm much obliged said he.
For what?"
''This is my hat"
where's mine, then?"
Hanging behind you at the end Of a
string"
Then the well dressed young man
remembered that, for safety, he had
put on a hat guard that afternoon

HELPFUL WORDS
From a Ladysmith Citizen.


Is your back lame and painful?
Does it ache especially after exer-
ton?
Is there a soreness in the kidney
region?
These symptoms indicate weak kid
neys.
There is danger in delay.
Weak kidneys fast get weaker.
Give your trouble prompt attention.
Doan's Kidney Pills act quickly.
They strengthen weak kidneys.
Read this Ladysmith testimony.
Mrs. G. e. Brooks, living in the
southeast part of Ladysmith, Wis.,,
says: ''My husband was in very SER
ious condition as a result of kidney
trouble. He tried number of rene
dies but the results were unsatisfactory.
At last, Doans Kidney Pills were
brought to my attsntion, and procured
box for my husband at the Mooney
Pharmacy. He used them and received
wonderful relief. He has been feeling
better in every way since taking them
and recommends them as the finest
remedy he ever used for kidney trouble.

Mayor Baker is credited by the
Hawkins Reporter with making
some very Ancomplimentary remarks
about the Norwegians of Hawkins

out the saloon two years ago. The

not show that Hawkins supported

neither Erickson, Andersen nor Bye,
who are all Norwegians, received a
majority in the town. Ling, who is
a Swede, did.
Two years ago, in the gubernatorial
fight, the politicians succeeded in ex-
citing some national prejudice be-
tween the Swedes and Norwegians,
throwing the latter vote to David
son, the Norwegian, against Len
root, the Swede. But the effort along
tnis line made by the Jenkins faction
in this campaign, fell fiat. The ratio
of the Norwegian-Swedish vote in
this district is more than two to one,
respectively, and in Hawkins there is

Snake Den in Hollow Tree.

Alexander Huston and his hired
man while going to work en- the Hus-
ton farm, near the Allegheny county
line, saw a large black snake on an
old oak tree. The next day the hired
man took his pistol along, and, see
ing the snake again, mounted the tree
and shot it and another which craWled
out of the hollow trunk. Believing
that there might be more snakes IN
the old trunk, fire was started be-
low, and in a short time the snakes
crawled out in such large numbers
that the man up the tree descended
in a hurry
A vigorous fight ensued, and when
the contest was over the men had
eighty-five dead snakes measuring
from one and a half to over nine feet
in length.

In the notices now being published
for the general election in November
you will find along at the last the state
ment that you will be called on to vote
whether or not you want the state to
use part of it's funds in helping the
farmer to build good roads.
At present the farmer pays the
whole cost, and yet it is stated by To-
cal business men, by railroad presi-
dents and others that they will be
financially benefited by better roads as
we'll as the farmer.

Why does any one take to writ

or worse, and be happy in the pr
tice of it. Writing is both a pro
sion and an art. On it's money-gett
side it seems to me not particul;

or a successful doctor commonly ef
