There is no higher parliamentary au-
thority III this country than Mr.. Asher
Kinds, so long clerk to the Speaker,
and his opinion of the slight changes
in the House rules will hardly be chal-
lenged. He declares that they leave
the Speaker stronger than ever, since
they take away none of his essential
power, while relieving him of certain
irksome responsibilities. These relate
chiefly to his consent to the calling up
of bills in which particular members
are interested The giving or with
holding permission has often been the
cause of bitter cnmities. Mr.. llinds re-
calls the political hostility which
Speaker Reed incurred in that way
Hereafter, there is to be g ''unani-
nous consent day. in which bills that
have reached a certain parliamentary
stage may be brought before the House
provided nobody objects. That will
take the burden from the Speaker, and
put it upon the members. They VIII

and not at a tyrannical Speaker, for
preventing them from getting their

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubles. An Augusta Citizen
Shows How to Cure Them.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame.
weak or aching back they think that
it is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kid
ney disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Bright's disease. The best remedy
to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t cures
all ills which are caused by weak or
diseased kidneys. Augusta people tes-
tify to permanent cures.
=, w. L. Fifeld, Manufacturer of the
Fifeld Automatic Drilling Attachment,
living at IA Melville street, Augusta,
Me-, says: II have the utmost conf
dence in Doan's Kidney Pills as I
know from personal experience that
they are a reliable kidney remedy.
Several years ago I used them with
the most satisfactory results. I do

garding my case, but can say that ]

"Put Her There, Jim!"
ATLANTA constitutional


After the stately ceremonies. clothed
in the simple and solemn grandeur of
democracy, of Inducing new Ameri-
can president had reached a climax
President Taft relieved the tension by
turning quietly to Vice President Sher-
man, and saying cordially, as he held
out his hand
Put her there, JIM"
That one sentence is the symbol
of the irrevocable barrier that stands
between America and the threat of
monarchy, concerning which the more
timorous citizen has given himself UNI
necessary unease and anxiety.
1t is the quintessence of democracy
itself, stronger than the iron-ribbed
organic law and more powerful even
than the more intimate statute gravad
lastingly in unwritten custom and
tradition.
For it is of the very fiber of the men
Of America, running with equal
pervasiveness through the leader of
hosts and the citizen whose only as
set in his ballot.
This brand of democracy has been
increasingly evident in the public men
of the United States for the last two
decades. Men are seeing that it is The
man who dignifies the office, not
the office that dgnifies the man. And
they are demanding that the only eff
fectual cast and law of seclusion
which shall rule in this country shall
be the cast and seclusion Of merit and
righteousness and integrity.
Kings and tyrants have fallen in the
past by reason of failure to recognize
these fundamental and involuntary
statutes. The republic of Washingto IN
and of jefferson and of Lincoln is safe,
so long as its administrators give their
straightforward and unassuming allie
glance to the principles.

The Friend of Dumb Animals.

From all parts of the land have come
tributes to the memory of George T. An
CELL who died in Boston last week at the
age of nearly 81 years. AS the wrold's
most active ana best known friend of
dumb animals, Mr.. Angel devoted
nearly half a century of his life to
sowing the seeds of kindness. He was
an apostle of humanity in an important
and noble way and no apostle was ever
more devoted to his mission or did a
work more general and immediate in
chusetts Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, an organization
which was the first of it's kind and
which had many active imitators in
other parts of the land. In the same
year he began the publication of his
little paper "Our Dumb Animals
which he published until his death and
which circulated in great numbers
throughout the world. He was the
leader of the movement tor the Organl-
cation of Bands Of Mercy and societies
on the same plan and purpose were or
ganized even in England and southern
parts of Europe. Year after year he
addressed, colleges, schools, churches
and conventions OF various kinds in be-
half of all the weak, helpless and SUI
fcrng among the creatures of God.
There is no measuring the good he ac-
complished in promoting tenderer re-
gard for dumb animals and in doing
this he did much to lift humanity up
to a higher level and to advance the
cause of the brotherhood OF man. For
instance, it was under his inspiring di-
rection that no fewer than half a mil
lion copies CT that story of the horse,
Black Beauty" were printed and cir
culatcd. 1t was, by the way, the driv-
ing of two horses to death in race
