Never neglect your kidneys.
If you have pain in the back, urin-

Caught Alive.-A New Yorker, big
game hunter of many years expert
ence, was lion shooting in Uganda. He
had excellent luck Nearly every day
he posed in complacent attitude be-
side freshly killed lion, and his pho
tographer snapped him for the maga-
zines.
One afternoon the photographer who
was taking a nap in the hut, was
awakened by a loud noise. He rose
and looked out Sprinting toward him
from the jungle, hat gone and coat
tails flying, came his chief, and, with
terrible roars and growls. a huge lion
bounded at his heels.
The photographer gazed spellbound
at the strange and exciting picture.
His chief, perceiving him, shouted:
Quick, quick! Open the door,
George! I'm bringing him home

CONSERVATION GENERAL.
A Movement In Force In the East as
Well as West.

Well as West.
From reading the reports of the
recent conservation congress in Wash
ington, one would infer that the west
is the only section of the country in
which steps have been taken toward
conserving our natural resources"
said H. H. Persons Of East Aurora, n.
Y, to a Washington Post reporter.
Mr.. Persons is chairman of the New
York state water supply commission,
and took great interest in the discus
sion before the recent congress.
New York state has long ago ap-
preciated the necessity Of conserving
its water supply" said Mr.. Persons,
"and today has a better plan of ac-
complishing this. We have within the
last two or three years prepared, with
the aid of skillful engineers, plans that
will, If endorsed by the legislature,
result in enormously increasing the
water power.
Two projects Of great Importance
have been outlined. One contemplates
a great reservoir near the headwaters
of the Hudson, and the other propos-
es the harnessing and control of the
headwaters of the Geneseo river. We
expect the legislature to endorse these
projects at the coming session, and,
if it is done, the city of Rochester will
again become what it was years ago
the great water power city of the EN-
pire State, and, besides, several hun
dred thousand horsepower will be
available for the manufacturers of
the Hudson valley
1.-The details of these two great pro-
jects are too extensive to be discussed,
but they show that New York state
long ago took the lead in conserva-
ton matters, just as she has done in
hundreds of others looking to the
good of future generations"

WALL OF THE REPUTABLE.
Business Men Who See Their Asso'
ciates Goinq Wrong.

ciates Going Wrong.
"The wall of the real good, honest,
railroad official today" remarked Har-
vey T. Wade of San Francisco, to a
New York Telegram reporter, "is pre-
cisely the same as the wall of the
reputable brewer, distiller and sa-
loonkeeper about two years ago, when
the prohibition wave threatened the
very foundation of the beer and liquor
business in this country.
1.-THE straightforward brewer did
not suppose, when he watched the an
tics of the irresponsible, reckless
brewer, who was backing dives in all
the slum districts of his city, that
these same antics would revert back
on him and threaten to kill his busi-
ness. But he found out later, when
legislatures began to jump on the
liquor traffic as a whole, that he was
the victim of the manoeuvres of his
crooked friend across the street.
80 today we are presented with the
argument of the reliable, able, busi-
ness-like railroad man against the
laws which will block the extension
of our railways. This man is the vic
tim of the rebater, the railway coal
mine owner and the man who bor-
rowed money from one set of stock
holders to rob another set.
"The people want more miles of
railroads. They know that railway
building is the foundation of progress,
but they are not willing to forget cor
ruption, swindling and unscrupulous
railroad practice. The reliable, hon.
est railway man must have seen what
his crooked brother was doing ten
years ago. Why did he keep mum and
possibly take little slice Of the cake
himself? Had he informed on the
corrupt railway man he might have
saved his own neck and avoided dras-
tic legislation which the people now
think necessary in order to bring
about the proper regulation of rail-
roads,"

13' An exchange observes that a boy
can sit on sled six inches square tied
but can't sit on a sofa five minutes for
a dollar. A man can sit on an inch
board and talk politics for three hours,
but put him into a comfortable church
pew for forty minutes and he gets
nervous, twists and goes to sleep. A
man can pouch his cheeks with to-
bacco and the juice running down his
chin feels good; but a hair in the but
ter simply knocks him out COM

Base Ball.

BRYANr's POND 8; SOUTH PARIS Z.
The South Paris base ball team went
to Bryant's Pond Saturday afternoon and
were defeated in an interesting contest by
the above score. During the early part
of the contest Paris had things about
their own way and 1t certainly looked
like Paris victory in the seventh inning
with Paris leading to l. However, it
is we'll known fact that the Bryants
Pond team never gives up, and this game
was no exception. They kept trying and
aided by some loose fielding and two
decisions by the umpire which the
Bryant's Pond players and spectators
acknowledged were wrong and which
handicapped the Paris team at time
when they were playing their poorest
ball of the game, they succeeded In over
coming Paris lead and winning out.
The Paris team was made up OF the
owing players: catcher, G. Clark I;
pitchers, L. Clark and Cole; first base,
Bolster; second base, r. Shaw; third
base, Rawson; short stop, TitcOmb; out.
field, Wheeler, e. Shaw, L. Clark snd
Cole alternating. Those who know these
players will realize that they have the
making of fast team, although to the
writer it seems as If the team could be
strengthened by changing the position
of some of the men.
L. Clark and Cole both pitched well
for Paris, and 1t was not the batting OF
the Dryant's Pond team that won the
game for them. An error by Cole while
he was in the box, however, was very
costly, letting In two runs. Other mem
bers OF the infield also contributed errors
at times when they were very costly.
Paris led In the batting, showing to good
advantage in this part of the game. G..
Clark continued his good work, getting
three nice hits and leading both teams,
Paris having no scorer with them, 9
score of the game Is not available and
this report is necessarily rather inoom'
plete.

A Word from the Water Committee

A meeting of the South Paris Village
Corporation will be held on Saturday,
July Sd, to take such action as the vot-
ers may see fit under the act passed by
the legislature, authorizing the establish
ment of municipal water system.
The committee of the village corpora
ton which has been engaged during the
past two years in investigating the water
question in its various phases feel that it
will be to the advantage of the village to
establish such system; that an ample
supply of excellent water can be obtain
ed by a gravity system, furnishing better
water and better pressure, and more
satisfactory service in many respects
than is now had, without increased cost.
Undoubtedly the work of construction
of such a system can be done at less
cost this year than for some years to
come at least.
We therefore recommend that the vii
lage vote to establish municipal water
system, and proceed at once on the con-
struction of it by laying a supply pipe
from the reservoir on Cooper Spring
Brook owned by the village corporation
to reservoir to be built at the most ad-
vantageous site, and laying a twelve
inch main from that reservoir to Market
Square; also that the village corpora
ton proceed to ascertain as soon as may
be what the Norway Water Company
desires to do relative to the sale Of its
property in Paris to the South Paris
Village Corporation under the terms of
the act of the legislature.
