Tested and Proven
There Is a Heap of Solace in Being
Able to Depend Upon a Well
Earned Reputation.

For months Topeka readers have seen
the constant expression of praise for
Doan's Kidney. Pills. and read about
the good work they have done in this
locality. Not another remedy ever pro-
duced such convincing proof of merit.
Mrs. Anne Daneke of 113 North To-
peka avenue. Topeka, Kan, says: 1.-THE
statement 1 made in the Summer of
1899 about Doan's Kidney Pills curing
my son of a kidney weakness was true.
and 1 can now add that during the
time which have since elapsed the cure
has practically been permanent. When
he has taken cold have noticed slight
indication Of return of the annoy
ance, but they never amounted to any
thing. 1t is needless to say that still
retain high opinion of Doan's Kidney
Pills.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ortii-
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment Of any kind. do
not for moment imagine that colds
are not dangerous. Everyone knows
that pneumonia and chronic catarrh
have their origin in common cold.
Consumption is not caused by cold
but the cold prepares the system for
the reception and development Of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found lodgment. 1t Is the same with
all infectious diseases. Diphtheria.
scarlet fever. measles and whoopinR
cough are much more likely to be
contracted when the child has cold.
You will see from this that more
real danger turks In a cold than in
any other Of the common ailments.
The easiest and quickest way to cure
cold is to take Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy. The many remark
able cures effected by this prepara-
tion have made it staple article of
trade over large part Of the world.

tient; and 1t has been demonstrated
also that sunshine. fresh air and
nourishing food are most powerful
aids in strengthening the human body
to resist the disease, or to drive IL
out after 1t becomes once established.
And while 1t is true that outdoor
life in the eastern or middle states.
with nourishing food and com petent
medical supervision will do much
toward the prevention and cure Of
this disease, 1t Ia also true that the
conditions Of Colorado are excep-
tionally favorable both to the pre-
vention and to the cure Of tubercu-
losis. The reasons for this super.
iority are to be found In the great
or prevalence of sunshine, in the
climatic conditions that invite to
outdoor occupation or amusement.
the dryness of the air, and the con-
ditions that increase appetite and
promote the assimilation of food.
It has been demonstrated beyond
question that consumption may be
cured in the Atlantic states, but it re-
mains true that for the person with
inherited tendencies toward consump-
tion, or for the person that discovers
himself to be in the early stages of
the disease, the Rocky Mountain
plateau offers the most favorable con-
ditions to be found in this country.
One of the papers before the con.
gress dwelt with particular emphasis
upon this point, and attracted much
favorable comment.
OF late years less has been said and
written about Colorado as resort fer
consumptives than was the case in an
earlier preiod. Doubtless the belief
that consumption can be cured in the
east is responsible for this falling Off
of interest. But as matter Of fact.
Colorado ought to attract large
number Of health seekers than ever
before. for the progress Of modern
science, far from belittliDg our
clai ms in this respect. only makes 1t
more evident than ever before how
important are the. advantages of win
ter sunshine, moderate temperatures,
dry air. and outdoor occupation all
the year round. Chieftan.

RAPID PROGRESS.

According to figures given out by
Engineer CountrymaD.a total distance
of 35l feet was made during the
month of Septe amber in the Roosevelt
deep drainage tunnel, making the
total distance driven 8. 524 feet. The
contractors have been increasing the
speed in driving the tunnel, by the
use of better equipment and stronger
blasting powder, the present material
being 80 per cent glycerine. The
rock in the heading continues to be
very hard and compact and has re-
tarded work to a great extent. Work
In the intermedi ate shaft is at q
stand still at present by reason of Sow
eral changes being made in the ma.
chinery and general equipment.
As soon as the station is cut in the
shaft. progress will be rapid, as the
work will then be prosecuted from
three headings. 1t is probable that
the compressor now in use at the por-
tai of the tunnel will be moved to the
shaft and much more powerful hoist
put in operation.

A TRIUMPH OF SCIENCE.

As result of the tuberculosis con-
gress held this week in Washington.
and of the numerous articles pub
lished In the newspapers and maga-
zines, the general public has become
familiar with one of the most impor
tant triumphs Of science ever record
ed.

young Consumption" was regarded
as An incurable disease, ist cause WAS
unknown, its symptoms and its pro-
cesses were imperfectly understood,
and there seemed to be little pros pect
Of effective remedy fer this giant evil.
At the present time tuberculosis is
able. its cause is known, its condi-
tions are understood. and while 1t
still stands az one of the most de-
tsructive of all diseases, there is every
reason to believe that in the near
future the number of persons contract
ing the disease will be greatly les
sened. while the percentage of cures
among those suffering from tubercu-
lar infection will be largely in

In this connection 1t is worth MOTTO

cine that will cure consumption as we
have ever been, for of all the innum-
erable "cures" that have been discov-
cred and advertised not one seems to
fulfill the expectations of its advo-
cate. But 1t has been demonstrated

FIGHT BILLBOARDS
WITH BIG POSTERS
Wall Publicity Sklrmlsh Is on in Adj
vance of This Weeks Conven-
ton at Ebell Club
House

The billboard war is now going on
on the billboards.
A day or two ago placardS began 10
make their appearance on many or the
billboards and on dead walls stating In
big black type that the anti billboard
convention would assemble at the Epell
club house on May 25.
Yesterday new posters made their
appearance and by some strange CO.
incidence they were pasted alongside
the aforesaid Ebell club notices.
The new sheets stated that the bill
board industry in the United States
supported a million persons and repre-
scented total investment of $75,O00,OOO.
The reader was advised to think be-
fore acting.
In Los Angeles and vicinity the fight
is mainly against the Varney & Green
company, which controls most of the
board space here.
The Outdoor Art league, Municipal
league and other organized bodies are
carrying on a personal publicity and
print campaign against the scenery de-
stroyers in Southern California.
Thousands of letters are being writ
ten by those unfriendly to the hideous
wall signs to merchants who by pat
ronizing the boards help to perpetuate
the nuisance.
The letters contain no threats but
merely appeal to the sense of justice
and fitness of recipients to discourage
the ruination of scenery. one of Cali
fornia's principal assets.
