ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always resrk
from arrangement of the kidneys and
better health i'll that organ is obtained

the night. The mild and immediate effect
OF Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring

PARENTS OF KIDNAPPED
GIRLS CAN'T PAY S25,0OO

st. Louis.-Rumors that the Vivi-
amos, father of Grace and Tomasso vi
viano, who were kidnapped from their
home here on Monday, were communi-
eating secretly with the children's
alleged abductors, were dispelled to-
day by Pietro Viviona calling at the
police station and telling Captain
Schoppe he would prosecute the abb
ductors. He told the police he and
his cousins did not have 1926, 900, the
amount demanded as a ransom.
The police are holding Joseph Pag-
ane and Lamayrea Giroloma, the lat
ter having confessed last night that
Pagano, Marchesi, Benedetto ana
Samuel Turrisi who were last seen
with the children, and Vincenzo RI
cardo, arranged with him last Satur-
day to have the trunks which were
found in Chicago hauled to an ex-
press office here. When Pagano was
told Of Glroloma's confession, he
pleaded ignorance and begged to be
allowed to end his life.
A letter which came into the pos
session Of the police today is believed
t1 be the first communication receiv-
ed in st. Louis from the kidnapers
since the father Of Grace Viviano re-
ceived the $4,000 ransom letter. The
letter was addressed to Joseph Pa
gano, one Of the men held on suspici-
on. 1t came from Chicago and the
writer tells Pagano he cannot claim
"the trunks" because the police are
watching them. The police will not
divulge the name Of the writer.

HARTMAN is AFTER
II. Il. COMMISSIONER LANE

Portland.-Business men and ship
pers of the northwest who have
found in Franklin P. Lane a continu-
ously fair minded friend upon the in
terstate commerce commission are ex-
ercised over reports from Washing
ton that Mr.. Lane is apt to be defeat
ed for reappointment upon the COM
mission next January through the
opposition of Hartman.
Commissioner Lane, It Is said, Is
slated for retirement on the program
Of political changes for the coming
year gotten out by the Hartman in
terests. The defeat of Lane when a
candidate for governor of California
few years ago was attributed to the
working Of the Southern Petite COM
pany there, although Lanes personal
popularity was such that even with
all the resources at Harriman's COM
mand the official returns showed an
insignificant plurality Of votes over
Lane.
Although at present in Europe,
where he Is studying switching char
ges and demurrage, it is said that in
case he is unable to secure a reap
pointment on the interstate commerce
commission he will return to Cali
fornia and run either for governor or
for the nomination for United States
senator against Senator Flint.
During his incumbency as a MEM
Der Of the interstate commerce COM
mission Commissioner Lane has been
a most constant friend Of the shipper
at all times and has done much to Sc
cure the advantages that have been
gained by the public since the estab-
llshment Of the commission.

After the discovery of the farm
