that infiict humanity; they must keep
up" must attend to duties in spite of
constantly aching backs, or headaches,
dizzy spells, bearing down pains; they
must stoOp over, when to stoop means
torture. They must walk and bend and
work with racking pains and many
aches from kidney ills. Kidneys cause
more suffering than any other organ of
the body. Keep the kidneys well and
health is easily maintained. Read of a
remedy for kidneys only that helps and
cures the kidneys,
Mrs. j. Mocken of Darlington, Wis,
says: Il suffered some from kidney
trouble for several years. often had a
dull aching in the small of my back
and left side, also experienced head
aches and dizzy spells After doctoring
for some time without getting relief, l
noticed that the kidney secretions were
unnatural in appearance. I then pro
cured supply of Doan Kidney Pills
and began using them. In a short time
I was feeling better and have improved
steadily since. The kidneys are much
stronger and [ do not suffer from head
ache and feel better in every way.

Year.
Owing to the building of freight cars
for the Pacific Coast Extension of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul road
the car shops Of that company at Mil
waukee have been exceedingly busy the
past year. Box cars and other pieces of
equipment in the freight line to the
number of $685. were manufactured.
If these were coupled together and
placed on a single track they would
form train a little more than forty
eight miles in length.
Ninety locomotives were turned out
of the shops during the year. If these
were apportioned to the cars there
would be ninety freight trains of sixty
three cars each, the length of each train
being more than half a mile.
Freight cars to the number Of SO 1893
were repaired during the year. These
if coupled together, would cover more
than 404 miles of track.
Add the ninety freight trains of new
equipment and there would be a CON
tinous line reaching length of 453
miles.
An average of 5,616 persons were en-
pioyed, the payroll for the year amount
ing to s., 36f,256, giving each employee
