COMFORTING WORDS
Many an OeaIa Household Will Find
Them So

To have the pains and aches Of n
bad back remedied; to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous urinary
diseases is enough to make any kid
ney sufferer grateful. To tell how
this great change can be brought
about will prove comforting words to
hundreds Of Ocala readers.
Edward Gravier. living on Lemon
street. Palatka. Fla. says For sew
eral months my back had been caus-
ing me considerable misery. / also
had a lameness across my loinS, and
there was a dull aching through my
kidney regions, almost constantly. 1t
was hard for me to walk and when
sat down for q little while l would
become so stiff that it was only with
a great difficulty that l was able to
arise. II / stopped to pick up any
thing, sharp twinges would pass thro'
my loins, and cause me the greatest
misery. 1 had often heard of Doan's
Kidney Pills, and finally procured a
box. Their use banished the lameness
and soreness and made me feel ten
years younger. II my recommendation
will be the means of bringing relief to
any persons suffering from kidney
trouble, you are welcome to use it"

LUCILLE HAD TO LAUGH
And Three Pearls Went Down Her
Throat-An Expensive Bath for
Mrs. McGuerin

New York, Sept. 13.-Four thousand
dollars for a single bath! That's the
price Mrs. Martha McGuerin, a viva
cious beauty, said she paid at Fleisch-
mann's Forty-second street baths, and
she didn't hand out any tips. either.
ITO think that 1t was all due to my
carelessness in not noticing that had
that $4,000 necklace around my neck
when l went into the pool" she sigh
ed.
I'm the hurry and hustle, you
know" Mrs. McGuerin said. Il splash
ed right in without having the pearl
necklace checked at the office. Then
the chain broke and, my, how those
pearls flew!"
If 1t hadn't been for Lucille, who Is
the Annette Kellerman, of Fleisch-
mann's, every one of those lustrous
gems might have gone down the
drain. AS it turned out, Lucille per-
formed a feat that outkellered Keller
man. In a single dive she picked Up
all the scattered gems and put them
in her mouth one at a time. Then
she came up smiling, her mouth full
Of pearls.
The look of bewilderment on the
faces of the spectators caused Lucille
swallowed three of the pearls. A fourth
popped into the pool and could not
be found.

TARIFF NAY Be TRIMMED


Washington, Sept. 1S.-The board Of
tariff experts just appointed by the
president will meet here shortly and
organize
While President Taft has not, so far
az is known, issued any instructions
to the members Of the board. 1t is I'M

the very bottom Of Me question and
present to him such data as will
make clear to Congress the exact diff

the United States
Where this difference is pronounc-
ed In favor Of the American manufac-
turer. showing an excessive profit by
reason Of the high tariff. the presi-
dent, II is believed, will recommend
to Congress that such schedules in
the tariff law be modified to meet
there conditions in the interest Of the
American consumer.
"Stand patters" Not Consulted
1t seems that the tariff commission
ers we're chosen without consulting
the "standpatters" In either the House
or the Senate. Professor Emery, II IS
understood. will be chairman of the
board.
Alvin P. Sanders, editor OF the
Breeders Gazette. Of Chicago, has for
a long time been prominent in the
movement of the manufacturers and
farmers of the middle west to secure
tariff revision. Hence his appoint
ment suggests an honest effort to
bring about sound tariff revision. Mr.
Reynolds. third member, is from Mas
sachusetts, where both free traders
and high protectionists flourish.
1t Is hoped by the tariff revisionists
that sufficient material will be ready
for President Taft soon after the re-
assembling of Congress. so that many
of the present incongruities Of the
tariff can be remedied by amendment
and without reopenin gthe entire
tariff question.
