"Gallagher'S!" announced the con
in his familiar StentOrian tones, and
again the lurching movement that a
stop was to be made. Here a number
of passengers boarded the car, giving
the upright passenger the assurance
:hat she was not to be longer along in
her effort to retain a vertical posture.
But the standing room was even now
at premium, and there was less pos

a profusa bow and flourish of his
1898 derby announced to the weary
passenger that she might have his
seat
1t developed later, however, that his
| gallantry was not the effect of having
seen woman standing, but that he
was through with the seat; he dropped
off at the crossing before the car re-
sumed the journey, and with an audi
bic sigh which might have been heard

dropped almost helplessly into the
proffered chair.

that such has occurred on the inter-
urban cars, but of late it is seen with
so much more frequency that it leads
to the belief that the Garden City of

of people known as "7-cent hogs" who
have migrated from more under table
places. and are to force their unlimited
presence upon a community previously
free from their existence.

No end of space has been given the
"end seat hog" by the papers of the
larger cities throughout the country
but not until the past week or SO has
there been any occasion for such a
contribution of space in the local pa
pers. Whether the specimen is a
product of the, Walla Walia valley or
whether he migrated from Portland,
Seattle, or from some OF the eastern
cities has not yet been definitely de-
termined, although some effort has
been made in the endeavor to learn his
pedigree and history.

She was a petite, fluffy, wholly femi-

traffic on all lines of the Walla Walla
Valley Traction cOmpny, and the in

"B-o-a-r-r-r-d-d! was the conduc-

announced that all was ready.
Not a seat left! CHANGING hastily
around in a dazed sort of way she

OF SERIOUS KIDNEY TROUBLE
ARE IN THE BACK.
MANY WAIT TOO LONG
Valuable Mixture Which Anyone Car
Prepare at Small Cost-Too Much
Kidney Trouble Here.

Take care of backache. a great
many cases OF kidney complaint are
reported about here; also bladder
trouble and rheumatism.
An authority once stated that pain
in the back, loins or region of the
kidneys is the danger sigma! nature
hangs out to notify the sufferer that
there is something wrong with the
kidneys. which should receive imme-
diate attention. Only vegetable treat
mert should be administered and alb
solutely no strongly alcoholic medi-
fcines, which are harmful to the kid
neys and bladder.
The following prescription, while
simple. harmless and inexpensive, is
known and recognized as a sovereign
remedy for kidney complaint. The in
gradients can be obtained at any
good prescription pharmacy and any
one can mix them: Compound kar-
gon, one ounce; Fluid Extract Dande-
lion, one nalf ounce: Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Shake wei,
in a bottle and take in teaspoonful
doses after each meal and at bed
time.
This preparation is said to restore
the natural function of the kidneys,
so they will sift and strain the poison
Gus waste matter, uric acid, etc, from
the blood, purifying it and relieving
rheumatism. Backache will be re-
lieved, the urine will be neutralized
and cleared and no longer a cause OF
irritation, thereby overcoming such
symptoms as weak bladder, painful
frequent and other urinary difficult
ties.
This is worth trying and may prove
just Wat many people here need.

introduced evidence tending to show
that Sickafoose had been on a pro-
tracted spree for several weeks, and
did not know what he was doing, and
also introduced the plea of irrespon-

The prosecution took the view that
the man had full possession of his fac

been shrewd enough to eat a meal in
