WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
WEAK BODIES

Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Common
Aches and Ills of Lancaster People.
As one weak link weakens a chain,
so weak kidneys weaken the whole
body and hasten the final breaking
down.
OveIwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come. and there is an
ever-increasing tendency towards
diabetes and fatal Bright's disease.
There is no real help for the suffer
except kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and cure every kidney i'll.
Lancaster cures are the proof.
w. H. Hough, Maple Street, Lam
caster, Wis, says: ST have no
hesitation In recommending Doan s
Kidney Pills My little boy suffered
from infancy from weak kidneys.
We tried many remedies, but none
brought him much relief until l
procured Doan's Kidney Pills from J.
D. Hatch's drug store. The use of
one box cured him and he has had
no return of his trouble.
For sale by all dealers. Price so
cents. Foster Milburn Co., Buffalo,
New York, sole agents for the United
States.
Remember the name-Doan Sand
take no other.

PHIL ALLEN TAKEN
TO FEDERAL PRISON
His Natural Meanness and Treachery
Again Manifested in Some In
tercepted Correspondence.

tercepted Correspondence.
Madison, Wis, Feb. 23.-Phil
Allen, Jr, wrecker of the First Ma
tional bank of Mineral Point, Wis
whose acts of frenzied finance ruined
hundreds of depositors, was taken to
the federal prison at Fort Leaven-
worth, Kas., this afternoon. He is
under sentence Of ten years.
The decision to get Allen out of the
way now, instead of holding him
until the calling of the conspiracy
cases against President Calvert
Spensley and others, was made as
result of discoveries of secretly written
letters, in which Allen attempted to
frame up deals against the receivers
for his estate, the Central Wisconsin
Trust company of Madison, with the
purpose of concealing stocks and re-
tanning them in the name of relatives.
The letters now in the hands of
the attorneys for the trustee were
intercepted by Sheriff John P. Hal
bach.
The letters and the spirit that
prompted the writing offer sidelight
on Allen character that in the light
of past professions of god faith by
Allen have astonished and disguised
the officials and attorneys interested.
1t was this discovery of his secret
dealings even while in his Jail cell
that brought upon Allen hurriedly
prepared trip to Fort Leavenworth.
Bad faith, trickery, clever design, all
these terms describe Aliens attempt
to circumvent the officials. Much of
the credit for the discovery of this
plot is given to Sheriff Halbach, who
intercepted the letters
Early in January a Milwaukee
lawyer visited Allen in the Dane
county jail on legal business for a
client. At the conclusion of his de-
position Allen handed the attorney
two letters with the request that they
be mailed at point outside of Madi-
son. This was done. the letters going
to those indicated. Several weeks
later Allen was seen in his cell by
an old-time acquaintance, who secured
a permit from the marshal for making
the visit Allen handed him two
letters addressed to the same IN an as
before, to be mailed. Sheriff Halbach
had his eye on the deal, however. and
by clever working secured the letters
and turned them over to the authori-
ties.
In each of these letters Allen, it is
alleged. unfolded carefully planned
plots for, concealing and ultimately
retaining large assets in the form of
stocks with fallacious values The
whole purpose of his schemes was to
deceive the receiver, the Central Wis
consin Trust company, for whom
Richmond. Jackson & Swanson are
attorneys in this action. In the letters
Allen expressed a deep resentment to-
ward the receiver and the attorneys
for taking stocks which he says belong
to his wife.

The foreign tourist, who causes the
State department so many worries
every summer this year will be better
prepared than ever before to deal
without mishap in Europe as a result
or the arrangements made BIZ the
American Bankers Association which
tbs year will provide the tourist with
travellers cheques payable in ten thou
sand places IN the world. The express
companies have realized part of their
standing profits from the tourist and
always at the expense OF the banks of
TINS country who arecalled upon to do
a vast stmount of CLERICAL work for
which the express companies have the
major benefit. Recently F. |. Kent, of
New York, In report on cheques that
had been advertise as being cashable
at hotels, ETC., returned from Europe
much disgruntled, because he had gone
up and on various streets in London
ptesentin the cheques at every hotel
ne passed, an as he as not stoppineeat
any of them,she had not been able to
Obtain any money on his Travellers
Cheques. He of course, had no right
to expect to have his cheques cashed
A'sACA oANh anu as soon
as the matter was explained to him
he readily saw wherein he was wrong.
People will ask a stranger to cash
Travellers Cheques when there is no
reason for them to expect him even to
change bill, unless it was entirely
convention for him to do so. The real
purpose of the Travellers Cheque is to
enable tourists to buy railroad tickets.
to pay bills upon steamers, make pur-
chase when shopping. and settle hotel
bills without being obliged to carry
large sums of money in their pockets.
Realizing all of these conditions and
the further fact that the business of
Furnishing travellers with banking ia
cilities was being taken away from
legitimate bankers, even though such
service furnished by others would be
of no use whatever to tourists if bank
ers did not cash the cheques for the
hotel keepers who originally accepted
them. and for the people direct when
they applied to bankers, the American
Bankers Association established
Travellers Cheque system for the beBe-
tit of the bankers of the United States
