WHAT THE KIDNEYS 10.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps
US Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
OF impure matter daily; when unheal-
thy some part of this impure matter
is left in the blood. This brings on
many diseases and symptoms pain in
the back, headache, nervousness, hot,
dry skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and hearing,
dizziness, irregular heart, drowsiness,
debility, dropsy, deposits in the urine,
etc. But If you keep the filters right
you will have no trouble with your
kidneys.
Mrs. d. shearer, St. Joe ST., Rapid
City, S. d., says: s'Doan's Kidney
Pills have been used in our household
with the most satisfactory results. A
member of our family suffered some
time from a severe case of kidney
trouble, but Doan's Kidney Pills
brought relief that has since proved
lasting. l know of several other peo-
pie in Rapid City who have been great
~ helped by this remedy. Doan's

Early Prejudice Against Potatoes.


The way Of the potato was said to
have been barred by the prejudice that
1t was never mentioned in the Bible.
In the Lothians 1t came in about
1740. the year of the famine. from Ire
land, but was confined to gardens till
about 1854. when it was planted in
fields about Aberlndy. By the close of
the century 1t was general article of
diet. Ramsay says that George Hen
derson went about 1850 for n bag of
potatoes to kilsyth. where the Irish
method of field culture had lately been
tried. and introduced the potato into
Mentieth. where few had been
known. but only in kale yards. The
old folks. however. did not take kindly
to the new food. Old George Bachop,
one Of the Ochtertyre tenants, when
tod by his wife that she had potatoes
for supper said: .'ratties! Tatties!
never supped on them a. my days and
Wilma the NIGHT. Gle them to the herd
and get me sowens." 1t IL significant

kale and porridge and haggis. shoulG

But one day he happened to pass by
the farm while his pnrishioner was

CANNON. yAuDEylLLE ACT.

Huron Huronite: The most gener-
ally assailed man in the United States
took the platform in his own defense
at New Orleans last week, and this is
what he said:
There has been lot Of foolishness
and tommyrot INDUCED in by few
fellows of the minority who have not
been able to swing the majority-fel-
lows who have said that if we stood
still we were blessed, and if we CAV e
way we were damped. Fellows Of that
autocratic parsonage there the speak
er threw back his coat and strutted
around the STAGE like COLOSSUS be-
stride 400 members of Congress and
80, 600, 600 of people.
That's all tommyrot and peanut
politics.
This is called a smoker; let's smoke.
1t is hardly necessary to state that
the speaker from whom the foregoing
quotation was made was Joseph G.
Cannon, presiding officer of the ma
tional house of representatives. The
reading public will recognize the man
through the rector.
1t was his answer to flood Of
charges in which he figures as an OBJ
structor of Legislation, a friend Of
special interests, the enemy of the
masses, the usurper of rights that the
constitution does not bestow upon in
dividuals.
Mr.. Cannon has no defence, else he
would not meet grave allegations
with an act from vaudeville. His
party is looking for something more
profound at this Critical period Of its
existence. *
