{ Half the nervousness, half the irri- liability that is so common in every day life, is really sickness, and in most cases a condition that accompanies kidney trouble.
 It is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid and other poisons, but when the kidneys are sick and not doing their duty, the uric acid poison permeates the body and attacks body, brain and nerves. The irrita- ton causes nervousness, irritability. headache, dizzy spells; makes you lan- guid, unfit for work and inclined to worry over trifles. Besides, there is nothing more annoying than a bad back, and backache is the most com mon sign of kidney trouble. You feel lame and tired in the morning. suffer day and night with dull aching in the back, and it hurts to stoop or bend or lift.
 Keep your temper cool and get the kidneys well. No person can feel cheerful and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills, taken in. the be- ginning, will set the kidneys right.
 Continued treatment cures cases of long standing.

A PHOENIX CASE.

John Rehwalt. of g S Second Ave. Phoenix. Ariz. says: For years I was subject to attacks of kidney trou- ble. The pains across the small of my back and over the kidney regions were very severe. and at times sharp cricks would seize me and would make it almost impossible for me to straighten after stoOpng- I could scarcely touch the region around the kidneys, as the slightest pressure caused throbbing pains. I prOcur- ed Doan's Kidney Pills at Adams Pharmacy. and they promptly relieved me A continued use cured me. and I gratefully say that have not had any return of my old complaints"

but the most progressive thought, the greatest principles and the truest time- tested institutions of the Old World and the ages. They brought with them the town meeting. and today as in all time the purest form of what Lincoln described as Government of the peo- pie, by the people and for the people" From the beginning, Government in America meant to all practical pur poses self-government. If the Colo nial charters reserved certain powers to the home Government in Europe, these powers were, as a rule. merely nominal: paper powers dead from lack of exer- else"
 The speaker then pointed out the de- velopment of this representative form of government in the various colonies. and the determination of the colonies to resist any and all attempted abridge- ment of the rights yielded to their an cestors by the English throne. The English King and his Tory majority, the speaker said, did not recede from the position that they had powers out side of the constitution until Corn wallis surrendered his sword to Wash

 The first move to dispense with the reading of the journal was made by MT. Fulton in the interest Of the omni- bus hill but Senator Kean was prompt in obtecting to that motion. The clerk proceeded with his dreary task.
 Senator Beveridge appealed for con- alteration of the bill to compensate Government employees for injuries re- ceived in the service, and Senator New lands followed with a similar plea for the measure to create an inland water ways commission. Senator Gallinger reminded Mir. Beveridge of the inter- est of many Senators in his bill, but insisted that as far as possible, he pro- nosed seeing 1t perfected before its passage. But Senators Beveridge and Newlands secured their opportunity to speak before addressing their re- marks to the approval of the journal.
 When the reading of the journal had been concluded. MT. Beveridge and Mir. Newlands fingered in their places watching for an opportunity to pro- mote their favorite bills. No objection

 MT, Culberson saw in the bill an uI. terior purpose on the part of the sol. dier to secure a pension and secured the re-reading of some of the cores pondence in the case.
 Aftr using half an hour by talking about the bill to grant an honorable discharge to a soldier of the civil war Senator Teller asked immediate consid eration for a resolution opening tho accounts of postmasters between 1S64 and 1874 for re-adjustment. Senator Fulton. who was bursting with impa tience to get the floor. said that what he had to ,ay would be as appropriate to that resolution as to any other. Ht addressed his eEarks to the proposi. ton that the proposed law to compen- sate employees of the government fol injuries received in the service was moi in violation of any provision of the Constitution. It has been claimed that Judicial power would be lodged in the Secretary of Commerce and Labor by permitting him to determine questions concerned with the adjudication oi claims arising under such an enact ment.
