CRYING FOR HELP
Lots of it in Lexington But
Daily Growing Less.

Daily Growing Less.
The kidneys cry for help.
Not an organ in the whole
body so delicately constructed;
Not one so important to health.
The kidneys are the filters of
the blood.
When they fail the blood be-
comes foul and poisonous.
There can be no health where
there is poisoned blood.
Backache is one of the first
indications of kidney trouble.
1t is the kidneys cry for help.
Heed it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are what
is wanted.
Are just what overworked kid
neys need.
Proof in the following state

Wealth From Montana Mines.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.-Mining
conditions in Montana in 1910 are re.
viewed by the geological survey in a
special report just issued. While the
production of gold in Montana during
the year was less than the year before,
this is not considered as important.
Montana lost seventh place to Arizona
in gold production during the year.
The decrease of gold produced in the
state amounted to about 1926, 900,
caused by a decreased output of cop.
per at Butte and to decreased produc.
ton from s%iliceous acres in Chouteau
and Fergus counties. The silver pro-
duction showed n decline of over 400,
600 fine ounces, due to the decreased
copper production. Reviewing gener-
al conditions in Montana mining the
report says:
Whether Montana shall hold it's
enviable record Of being first on the
list Of copper and silver producers de-
ponds much on the yield of the copper
mines at Butte. The state headed the
copper list in 1909, but is second to
Arizona in 1910, although it remains
first in the output of silver. The
mines of Montana produced approx.
mstely 2s6, 900. 900 pounds of copper
In 1910. 9 decrease from the yield in
1909, which was 312, 056, 53s pounds.

ADVICE FOR DOG FANCIERS.
How to Plan and Take Care Of tho
Kennel BUILDINGS.

Whether a kennel is run for pleasure
OF for profit, the investment which
yields the best return is cleanliness. and
establishment to perfect aseptic con
ditions the greater will be his success.
This. then, is the prime thing to be
considered in establishing a place for
the care and breeding of dogs of any
type. Either unlimited money may be
used to accomplish this result or u lit
tie common sense.
The points to be considered in plan
ming kennel buildings are drainage.
protection, food and water and room
for exercise. The south side Of a gen.
tly sloping hill offers the best site.
Damp hollowS must be avoided as Il
pestilence. and if the yards are not
covered with concrete the less shade
therein the better, for the SUI itself is
one Of the best e%radicators of disease
germs.
The shape Of the buildings matters
little. If as many as ten dogs are
kept it is well to build a simple wood
en- structure holding five or six stalls.
each with Il door opening upon an in
ner passage. Il wired window for light
and air and a small exit into the outer
yard. The construction of one stall
will serve as the model for many. 1t
should be as large as possible, we'll
lighted and well ventilated.
Cleanliness is always the thing. Let
the whitcwash brush and the disin-
fecting spray be used literally. Insist
on the absence of litter and provide
fresh water and most Of the persistent
kennel troubles will vanish. Dogs, as
do men. thrive best under the nearest
possible approach to normal condi-
tons. They need little luxury and are
better without pampering.-Todd Rus

WHOLESALE VOTE SELLING.

The story OF political corruption
as told 10 press dispatches from
Adams county, Ohio, is an objec'
lesson which the good citizenship
of the country views with amazemen,
and disgust. There was an elemen,
Of the ludicrous ia some OF the court
proceedings, in which men of com
parative wealth confessed that they
had sold their votes, but the entire
bribery scandal shows q condition Of
moral turpitude and lack of apprecia.
ton of the honor and responsibility
attached to the franchise.
One of the most astonishing features
of the exposure is the discovery tina,
Adams county citizens who have been
selling their votes year after year are
not ignorant foreign.born men who
had not acquired familiarity with
American institutions. In nearly
every case the culprit was native.
born, q citizen of one the greatest and
most progressive states in the greatest
and most progressive country on the
face of the earth. With all the ad.
vantages of education, the example OF
their fellow Ohio citizens who had
filled the highest Office ia the land with
honor and credit to the state from
which they came, the residents of
Adams county appear to have lapsed
into a condition of political d~epravity
that is without parallel in the history
of the republic.
Nearly every elector 10 some of the
districts, according to the press dis.
patches, admitted the acceptance OF
money for his vote. The custom had
become SO prevalent that it was a rec
ognized institution in Adams county
Merchants, preachers, laborers-men
OF all classes, rich and poor-acquired
the habit of selling their support to
the various candid ates for Office.
A most deplorable condition of af-
fairs is revealed, but it is hoped the ex-
posture will effect q publication of the
political atmosphere in Adams county
o., and elsewhere. The grand jury
and public officials who probed this
bribery scanda have not, so far as
known, brought the bride givers to
account, but that development may
follow later. They have been doing
good work-work for which they are
entitled TO communication by American
citizens throughout the country.

DRAINAGE DISINFECTlON.
How to Make 1t a Preventive Of All
SortS of Diseases.

How to Make II a Preventive Of A,
Sorts Of Diseases.
Many housewives are always con.
cerned about the sanitary qualities OF
the drainage of their homes. and their
thoughts could not be placed on a
more mOmentous question that might
arise about the health in the home.
Doctors have proved that in the ma
1orlty Of instances where disease has
assailed a family wholesale the drain
age was at fault. for from this source
may conn ANY amount Of maladies if
the proper attention is not given to
the different sections of this great util.
ity.
To begin with. all systems of drain
age have what is called a ventilator, a
large pipe which leads to the roof of
dwellings,. This should always be un-
stopped. and every time the roof is
painted. which is about once a year.
some carbolic acid should be sprayed
into this pipe.
Next the bathroom needs your at
tention. Bathtub. washstands and
toilet should have their dose Of chic.
ride at least once a week. but the Of
tener the better.
The sink needs a good scalding and
s%crubbing after each usage. and a
dose Of chloride or a little carbolic
acid combined with the chloride should
be administered to the drain every
evening. Do not flush this through at
once. Let it filter through during the
night. This will serve to clean the
pipes as well as disinfect and purify
them.
But the work does not end here.
You have an outside closet to disin-
feet thoroughly. An ounce of carbolic
acid in a half pail of scalding water in
which a half can Of chloride has been
busted is none too strong Il purifier
here as in the toilet Of the bathrooms
of the upper stories.
Then the final work can he attended
to by a hired a where all traps are
lifted off and a like dose given. though
this is necessary only every few
months or twice yearly where proper
care is given to the upper house
throughout the year.
There is always an outside drain at
the open hydrant. which is forgotten
by most housewives when the weekly
administration of chloride is in prog
ress. Don't forget it. as this is a
source that might contaminate the air
before it enters the home.
Garbage, no matter how small the
quantity, should not be deposited in
the drain. as little by little this will
surely clog the pipes and cause much
trouble. Cities and towns pay large
amounts Of money each year to have
this material carried away. and the
housewife has no earthly excuse for
not availing herself Of this service.

TO FLY ACROSS THE SAHARA
AeropIane Mail Service Over Desert to
Be Tried.

'"N' WI WV OVST OSSCEI &c
Be Tried.
The French war department is abou
to put the aerOplane to the seyeres,
test yet asked Of it and has decided
that the Sahara desert shall be cross
ed as soon as possible from north Il
south, from Colomb-Bechar. at tho
mouth Of Oran, to Timbuktu, by mill

under the consideration Of the intel

The total distance is approximately
1000 miles, and at present dispatches
TAX four months crossing from Co
lomb-Bechar to Timbuktu. An aero
plane service, offectualiy arranged
would reduce this time to less thar
a day.
With the object of testing the feast
bility OF such a service General Brur
has given orders for the initial part OF
the program to be begun. A military
aviation center will be established or
the northern limits Of the Sahara. In
southern Algeria, and there a numbe,
or officers who have knowledge Of the
desert will be trained to pilot flying
machines.
When a sufficient number Of pilots
have received their certificates two
groups will be formed. one Of them be

New Varieties Of Vegetables.

United States Secretary sof Agricul-
ture James Wilson says the results of
the past years work in testing some
l,2OO ~so-called distinct varieties OF
vegetables have shown that in a great
many cases seedsmen send out, under
varying varietal names, stocks whose
only difference is the degree to which
they are uniformly OF the same q
fetal character, and that the use OF
different varietal names to distinguish
what are in reality simply different
grades or strains Of the same sort is q
very common practice of even our bes,
and most reliable seed firms.
