Denison Kidney Sufferers Get Little
Rest or Comfort.

There is little sleep, lottle rest, little
peace for the sufferer from kidney
trouble. Life is one continual round
of pain. You can't rest at night with
bad back, with twinges and "stabs'
of pain, with annoying urinary dis.
orders, backaches, lameness and nerv.
BUSINESS. You can't be comfortable al
work with darling pains and binding
dizzy spells. Neglect these ailments
and serious troubles follow. Begiu
using Doan's Kidney Pills at the
first sign of disorder. You will work
better as the kidneys get better, rest
better as your back grows stronger
Proof in Denison testimony.
Mrs. Henry Henricksen. 2l1 Court

Der of my family had more or less pain
and lameness across the back and to

A PERlLOUS FEAT.
1t Took Nerves Of Steel, a Cool Head
and Steady Eye.

The cathedral at Salisbury, England,
lifts it's spire 404 feet, which is quite a
respectable heighth even in the day
of skyscrapers. This spire is topped
by ball, and on the ball stands a
cross. From the ground the ball looks
to be about the size of an orange, but
in reality it is greater than mans
height.
A distinguished American visiting
Salisbury when very young man had
a curiously weird adventure on this
spire. Workmen were at the time re-
pairing it. The American saw them
crawling around the slim steeple in the
afternoon light like SO many bugs on
a bean stalk. The impulse came to him
to climb the spire and stand on the
horizontal beam of the cross. Accord
ingly, late in the Afternoon, when the
workmen had gone, the young man
made his way up the stairs to the lit
tie window which opened to the work
mems staging. To run up the scaffold-
ing to the ball was easy. Then came
the slightly more difficult climb to the
foot of the cross, over the bullying
curve of the ball. A short platform
gave him foothold. He reached up and
put bis hands on the base of the cross
and pulled himself up. To gain the

Predicts Dakota Will Be for Taft.

Congressman Eben w. Martin, of
Deadwo0d, has come out in a strong
Endorsement of President Taft, and
declares that he will support him for
denomination and that he is the only
republican who can be elected presi-
dent next year. Mr.. Martin declares
himself in thorough accord with the
policies of the president and pronOunc-
es them progressive republican doc
trine. His announcement is as fol-
lows:
81 shall support the nomination and
reelection of President Taft. He was
called to the presidency four years
ago as the unanimous choice of re-
publicans, and nothing has since &C.
Cured to justify his desertion by any
one who desires the supremacy Of
republican policies.
"The big questions of the next ad
ministration are tariff, the regulation
of corporations and the promotion of
universal peace. On all of these ques-
lions the president is sound and pro-
gressive.
"He insists upon schedule by sched-
ule revision of the tariff, upon sci
entific basis representing the differ
ence in cost of production at home and
abroad. This is the most advanced
republican doctrine on the tariff. On
ly by holding to this position can re-
Dublicans hope to win before the
American people. This is a totally
different proposition from democrat
ic revision framed up for political
convenience to put somebody in a
hole. The president is the foe to pri-
vate monopoly and upholds the law
of free competition and equal indus
trial opportunity to all men. While
Taft is president, corporations must
operate lawfully or cease to do bust
ness in interstate commerce. Taft's
arbitration policy, like the peace of
Portland of the Roosevelt administra-
ton, will mark an epoch in our pro-
gress towards universal peace.
"The president is a great, consci-
entious, strong American. His heart
is in full sympathy with the cause of
the people. He is the only man
whom republicans can hope to nomi-
nate and elect in 1912.
"The great body of South Dakota
people are fair minded and just. They
will have full opportunity to assert
their loyalty to the president and his
State and county Taft
clubs should soon be organized
throughout the state. The undercur-
rent of Taft sentiment is strong in all
parts of the state, and will be mani
fest in the June primaries. My opin-
ion is that the delegation from South
Dakota to the next republican nation
al convention will be for Taft. y

Charles Bartcher received beauti.
full piece of furniture last week in the
way of refrigerator in which to pre-
serve his cut flower stock. The new
refrigerator is beauty and is of the
latest design and pattern, composed
of four compartments, one of which
will be used for ice and the other three
for storing flowers. 1t is of mission
design and has beautiful plate glass
sides and doors. Mr.. Bartcher tells
us that the old refrigerator was too
small to accommodate his florist bust
ness. Mr.. Bartcher has built up a
large business in flowers, which is
probably due to the fact that he is
an energetic business man and be-
lies in generous use of printers ink.
Don't fail to read Mr.. Bartcher's ad,
which appears in this issue of The Re-
view. There is something in it which
will interest you.

POINTERS FOR THE MoToRlsT.
The Evils of insufficient Imitation ano
Constant Overlooking.

The first thing driver does when
one of his tires blows out is to look
for some small sharp object that he
is certain caused the trouble. The
next move very often is to fomr an
ironclad opinion that the tire manufac-
turer is wholly to blame for the acct
dent. AS matter of fact, is is more
than likely that the fault lies with the
driver for there are two results of
carelessness that no tire can possibly
ithstand-insufticien imitation and
constant overlooking.
Few motorists ever concede the fact
that they have been guilty of either
fault. Some drivers claim that they
have been particularly careful before
starting on the particular trip when
the blowout occurred, to test their
tires so as to be sure that the air
pressure was absolutely correct and
others claim that their cars were far
from overloaded. Many drivers for
get that previous careless treatment
affected the tires strength. That, per-
maps, with the exception of few
times, ever since the first day of the
tires service, it had been compelled
to carry an overweight of from one
Ito two hundred pounds, and had prob
ably been insufficiently inflated most
of the time.
| The fact that there was no over
load or under-infiation at the time the
blowout occurred proves nothing. TO
draw tragic parallel, a man may die
suddenly of some internal disease
which unknown to hi mhas been de-
veloping for a considerable time. In
the same way tire will eventually
succumb to long sustained strain.
In the greater number of cases it is
only after long period of heavy
work that signs of wear begin to ap-
pear.
| 1t should be remembered that tires
are not made of granite or concrete,
out of rubber and should be treated
accordingly.
| The questions of insufficient infla

crossarm was merely Shining" up a
good sized tree, and soon he stood on
the horizontal timber and, reaching up
touched the top of the cross.
After enjoying his moment of tri-
umph he slid to the foot of the cross
and with his arms around the post,
slipped down over the big bulge of the
ball. His feet touched nothing. The
little plank from which he had reached
up was not there.
Here was a Poe-like situation repuir-
ing a cool head and steady eye. He
could, of course, not look down. The
clinging hold that he had to maintain
on the bottom of the cross shortened
the reach of his body and made it less
than when he stood on the plank and
reached up to the eros with his hands.
He must drop so that his feet should
reach the plank, for he would never be
able to pull himself back if he should
let himself down at arms length, and
his feet hung over empty air.
But this young American had good
head, which he Immediately put to
work. He looked up at the cross and
tried to recall exactly the angle at
which he had reached for it, to make
his memory tell him just how the edge
of that square post had appeared. A
few inches to the right or to the left
meant that he would drop into vacan-
cy. Bending his head away back, he
strained his eye up the cross and fig
ured his angle of approach. He eau

ton to Mayors and Superintend-
ents Of Public Safety.
TO the County Attorneys and Mayors

TO the County Attorneys and Mayors
of Iowa:
During the past few months so
many complaints have been made, so
many requests have been received for
opinions concerning the operation of
slot machines, gambling devices and
various other forms of raffles and lot
teries, that we feel it incumbent to
direct a notice to each county at
torney in the state and the mayor of
end that the county attorney, his sher-
lift, mayor, his marshal, chief of police
and other officers of the law should
act in reference to these evils.
All forms of gambling, gaming and
lottery schemes are made illegal and
prohibited by the statutes of Iowa.
Any game in which person parts
with his money in the hope of re-
|ceiving sum of money in return, or
property, the amount of which de-
|pends on the result of the game, is
called gambling.
Slot machines by which one, for a
|given sum, will obtain a cigar, or by
Ia lucky turn more than one, are un-
|questionably gambling devices.
We can see no reason for prosecut-
ing the man who operates the shell
game, and the roulette wheel and at
the same time permit merchants to
operate gambling houses in the form
of raffles and slot machines.
1t is therefore requested that the
mayors and superintendent of pub
lie safety, direct their authority to
prosecute those not complying with
the law.
(Signed) GEORGE COSSON,
Attorney General of Iowa.
County Attorney P. ]. Klinker has
notified all persons operating such
games and devices in this city that
they must cease such operations at
once. The cleanup is to be state
wide and along lines that need it. This
sort of business has been winked at
long enough, then after the cleanup it
should be kept clean. /,
