even when foreign subjects we're

bors on the whole coast in precisely
the same defenseless position

WEAK KIDNEYS
 MAKE WEAK BODIES.
Kidney Diseasss Cause Half the Common Aches and Ills
 of Humanity.

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 ever increasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright's disease. There is no real help for the people except kid ney help.
 Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney i'll. Their cures are the proof
 E. P. Allen, gardener, of 15l6, East Sixth Avenue, Pine Bluff, Ark, says: Pills has been exceedingly satisfactory. They stopped the pain in my back which was almost constant and greatly aggravated if l took cold or did an ex- tra hard days work. In addition to the aching, irregularity of the kidney s secretions existed and at times they were highly colored Before l used Doan's Kidney Pills tried more than one preparation guaranteed to cure kidney complaint but 1 met with very indifferent success. Doan's Kidney Pills helped me from the start. The backache under the treatment grew less and less and finally disappeared. v

WHY IS BRYAN?

The whole country is confront ed by one of the most remark able instances of unswerving loy- alty to a man who is great in spite of defeat, and in the rank e both Democrats and Repubh- cans we h ar the question, Why is Bryan, '
 The fealty of h.s followers is ever unshaken, and the half hearted and ill-adyised 'conspir- acies" formed in various parts of the country to accomplish his defeat usually react upon the conspirators.
 He has met defeat with that oheerfulphilosophy which accepts the inevitable without railing at Providence, and those who have faith in him look on and admire him the more even his political reYerses.
 He is man among men. against whom the foul tongue of scandal may not wag. who bids defiance by his very manliness to the shafts of nal ce directed against him, rising superior to the things by which many another man would be overcome.
 The Omaha World Herald an swered the question thus, sever- al years ago:
 Nature has gifted Mir. Bryan with a remarkable face such face as could he carved on d coin and not be out of place. He has 8 physical vigor which makes his unstudied gestures forcible and emphatic He has an e5e which is by turns commanding a q hu- morous. And he has & voice which is equally adapted to ten derness or to denunciation. All these natural gifts has William J. Bryan and to them is added talent for research. a genius for accuracy, and a nature for truth. Let Nebraska congratulate her l self on the fact that she has an orator who possesses the physi- cal and mental qualities to make [ him a remarkable man in the his- tory of this nation. And if the
