Unhappy Is the man or woman with a had back. No rest. no sleep. no peace at all. It begins in the morning. when you get up from bed so lame. sore and stiff that it is hard to aDeno nyer to put your shoea on.
 All day there Is heavy, duii. tnrop- ping pain In the small of the back, just over the kidneys. 1t hurts to penu nver. to lift anything or even to get up from a chair. Any sudden. awkwaro movement sends sharp. dartihs awinKe through the sore spot
 when night comes the surerer re- tires to fitful sleep, can't lie comtorta' ply in any one position. or turn over without a painful effort.
 Don't look at backache as merely snuscuiar pain. thet will pass away rrifh rest. There Is deeper trouble Nine times out of ten 1t Is the kidneys That throb and ache, and there can bs no relief until the kidneys<are siyer help.

 Montgomery Proof.
 J. F. Snyder. 216 Catoma Street. Montgomery, Ala. says: My faith in Doan's Kidney Pills has in no way df- minished and know they are remedy which will cure the most deep-rooted and long, standing case of kidney com plaint I suffered for over year from attacks of kidney trouble. My back ached n great deal. dizzy spells were frequent and feeling of iapguor hung over me. As time went by, I could see that the attacks were more severe and I knew that something serious would result unless I checked the trouble. used every remedy knew of and took doctors medicines, but nothing gave me relief and was about discouraged when Doan's Kidney Pills we~~ brought to my attention. I procured box at E. c. Fowler's drug store and they helped me from the first. l continued taking them until free rom Kidney complaint and I am glad to say that the cure has been permanent.

 IN THE NORTHWEST

St Paul, Minn., Dec. 7-Ftfteen prominent jobbers and manufacturers, constituting a committee of the job bers union and the manufacturers of St. Paul today made a personal inspec- ton of the teNninais and transfer stations in and About the Twin Cities to ascertain the actual traffic condi- tions, as result of the switchmen's strike.
 After tour in private car. which lasted the greater part of the after noon, the committee gave out a state- ment that "the freight is being moved in very satisfactory manner and although normal conditions do not prevail at all points, a volume of busi- ness above normal Is being handled at some points"
 The report states. for example, that at the Hamline transfer. 16s cars were loaded and forwarded on Monday as against a normal approximately 130 cars. The statement concludes:
 We feel justified therefore. in an- nouncing to our customers throughout the entire northwest. that they may order goods freely without fear of serious delay"
 "Everything is quiet" was the only comment President Hawley. of the Switchmen's Union. would make today on the strike conditions.
 He continued to assert that the rail- roads were tied up. but on the other hand the roads claimed the strike was broken.

 "A few months afterwards saw an advertisement in newspaper Of the Cutioura Remedies. at once sent on for some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura oint- rcent and Cuticura Resolvent Pills, but thinkinR they would be no better than the other remedies. But to my sur nrise after the first order was used the scales disappeared and the itching ceased and after using another order of the Cuticura Remedies was completely cured, after suffering for nearly two wears. shall be glad to write to any one who may be interested in my cure.

Toga Wearers Always Anxious to Be
In Chamber When Call Is Made but
Not So DESTROYS of Staying.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June 12.-
Calling a quorum in the senate is a
bit of byplay that does not much in
convenience the senator and soothes
every state who keep tab on the roll
calls and if a senator fails often to
appear the fact is used against him in
campaigns in which there is a contest
It is important enough to make every
senator DESTROYS Of figuring in as many
roll-calls as possible, however much
he may be absent before and after that
record is made.
1t happens that during the debate on
the tariff many members suggest the
absence of a quorum and the question
whether a majority of the senators
are present is settled by the calling
of the roll. When action is to be
taken on one Of the paragraphs of the
bill there is desire to secure as full
an attendance as possible. When a
strong speech is to be delivered by a
member Of one of the factions and the
scene in the senate is largely a matter
of bare desks and deserted chairs,
some one of his partisans demands the
presence Of quorum.
Electric bells scattered throughout
the capitol and the office building
sound warnings to abseSt senator's
that they must hustle to the front or
miss getting into the congressional
record. They rush in from all direc-
lions, their speed being governed more
or less by age and the state Of their
rheumatism. With many of these SEN
ators, however, it is only a matter of
being in the chamber long enough to
answer to their names and then go on
about their business. It is not I'M
usual to see one enter just as his
name is called and, answering to it. to
keep right on and leave the chamber
by another door There is some excuse
for the senators, however, in the fact
that so much time is now being spent
in session and so many calls are made
upon them in connection with the tariff
