THE CASE OF DR.. COOK.

The case of Dr. Cook in its present
state of inexplicable entanglements
is one of the mysteries of the age.
There are so many homogeneous stu
ations, so many contradictions, so
many apparent miSstatements, that
however much one might wish to
sympathize with the explorer, his ex-
centricities have proved too much,
and public confidence in the man
himself has been finally reduced to
the minimum. The finding at Copen-
hagen takes the heart out OF his
North Pole claims, but it does not
convince everybody that he is not a
man of unusual abilities. Even Com
mander Peary thought much OF DR..
Cook, who was his physician on a
previous exploration to the polar re-
gions. Peary laid much of his sue
cess then to the intelligence of DR..
Cook, and alluded to him as a man
of great scientific ability; now he is
a fakir. To those who read Cooks
description OF finding the pole the
thought remains that it was a mas
terly composition, unparalleled in the
history OF literature The same blue
and violet SHOWS that Peary saw.
held Cook enchanted and he literally
overwhelmed a world by the beauty
and impressiveness OF his style. 1t is
a painful realization for the loyal fol-
lowers of Cook to recognize now
that the sublimity OF his thought was
inspired by a cruel intention to de-
ceive- Vic Hugo once said that

NO suFFRAGETTEs AT CAPITOL.
Most Of Female Employees at Capitol
Are Opposed to Woman's
SlIffradA

Des Moines. July 21.---The majority
of the women employees at the state
house are against woman suffrage.
And in the answers given there was
always the same thought suggested,
namely, that woman has enough to at.
tend to at the present time, that the
ballot, with it's consequent burdens
and obligations, was never intended
for woman and because small per
cent of them want it, others should
not be made to bear the burden OF
suffrage.
Twenty-four ladies picked indiscrin'-
inately from the various offices over
the state house were asked this
question, SHOULD Women Voter
Firteen of them replied with enl'
phasis that they should not, that sui,
frage is out of their sphere. Six OF
them replied with equal emphasis
that women ought to vote just as
much as men, that they are just as
capable of exercising the franchise as
men are. Three Of the women said
they didn't want to vote themselves
but If women wanted to vote let them
do it. One Of the three said that
woman suffrage is coming in due time
but that the time is not ripe for it
and it should not be rushed.

Unhappy is the man or woman with
a bad back. No rest, no sleep, no peace
at all. 1t begins in the morning, when
you get up from bed so lame. sore and
stiff that it is hard to bend over to put
your shoes on.
All day there is a heavy, dull throb-
bling pain in the small Of the back,
lust over the kidneys. 1t hurts to bend
over, to lift anything or even to get up
from a chair. Any sudden, awkward
movement sends sharp, darting
twinge through the sore spot.
When night comes the sufferer re-
tires to fitful sleep, can't lie comfort
ably in any position, or turn over
without painful effort.
Don't look at backache as merely 4
muscular pa in, that will pass ava j
with rest. There Is deeper trouble.
Nine times out of ten it is the kidneys
that throb and ache, and there can be
no relief until the kidneys are given
help.
The kidneys have big work to do.
All the blood in the body is coursing
through the kidney filters constantly,
to be freed Of uric poisons. 1t Is a
heavy enough task when the kidneys
are WELL but cold, chill, fever, or
some thoughtless exposure, or overin-
diligence in liquor, tea, beer or coffee,
is likely at any time to irritate, in
fame and congest the kidneys, and in
terrupt the purifying work.
