~ very much neglected disease
It is not until the disease has a

of lassitude, and other warning

tain the patient from his regular

Even when he discovers that the
kidneys are affected, he does not rec
ognize the difficulty as being caused
by catarrh.
Catarrh is sometimes so very grad
ual in its approach and its earlier
symptoms cause such slight discom-
fort that II is not noticed.
However. when it is once firmly
seated in the kidneys it becomes a
difficult disease to exterminate.
Indeed, catarrh of the kidneys Is
more serious than catarrh affecting
some of the other organs of the body.
In the kidneys It Is liable to termi-
nate in Brights Disease or dlabetes,
both of which are recognized as very
serious ailments, If not fatal.
The thing to be done, when a cold
or catarrh of the kidneys is discov-

lieves the catarrhal disturbances and
thus removes the cause of the diff

appeared. He was much disturbed

PREY OF mOSyo9a.sss I
QUEEN rs BOUND To STAKE AND
LEFT TO PERISH.
Cruel Vengeance Exscted by the
Ruler ON an Erring Woman May
Wipe Out Colony.

Quietly but persisteEtly, and with
promise of startling revelations. the
United States has turned its colby
inquiring gaze on condition Of af-
fairs that exist on the island Of st.
Malo on the coast Of Louisiana. The
circumstances bark back q full CEN
tury when the French pirate Lafitte
was very real bugbear to voyage'rs
seeking homes and fortunes in the
French colonies of Louisiana. From
those times up to the present the ISL
and has been held by an outlaw male
community of semisaTages, having
their own government, which they
called a "Free Republic" and admin
istering justice through theiE own
council. Once or twice there have
been perfunctory effects to bring this
island under the laws Of this country
but only recently has there been prov
ocation sufficient to inspire energetic
Investigations.
Up to the time Of the recent trag-
edy in which poor, wayWard, romantic
Marie La Vigne, a mainland beauty
Of Acadlan descent lost her life, the
island was referred to as an "Eve-
less Eden" Women were not Gol-
Grated. Up to the present the details
of the tragedy which Marie La Visne
brought upon herself are somewhat
vague, except her horrible death.
She captivated the master Of the
colony while he was marketing n
boatload of fish until he became So
obsessed by her charming figure and
coquettish glances that he dared to
violate tradition by letting her ac-
company him home. For some months
he was able to reconcile mis- people
to the presence Of his queen" as
Marie insisted upon calling herself.
Gradually younger men Of the col
ony lost their prejudices, under che
influence of Marie's glances. Pres
emily the master found he did not oc-
cupy the whole of Marie's heart,
worse, that his rivals were not only
successful, but numerous.
Marie's public accuser was the
master himself. And his thirst for
vengeance was so derce that he
turned her over to her worst enc
mics, the council Of elders, for trial.
There was no lack of evidence. Ac-
eording: to the barbarous standard Of
the community, a punishment to dt
the crime was, announced by the
council:
"Let her be eaten alive by mos
quitoes!"
The council of elders, in delivering
this terrible Judgment, also swore
the islanders to permit no future in
vasion of the island by any women.
Then Marie La Vigne was led forth
to execution.
She wa- bound to stake in the
marshes naked, where swarms of
mosquitoes and gnats denied any pos
sibility that she would live lons
enough to suffer pangs Of hunger.
Such is the outline Of the tragedy
which has turned the gaze of the au-
thorities on the whole problem of
civilizing St. Malo, and, If possible,
bringing to justice the murderers of
poor Marie La Vigne.

the Victims Of "Lord Percy Sholto

the Victims Of "Lord Percy Sholto
Douglas"
Mourned as one dead because she
was supposed to have been murdered
by John c. Cavendish, alias Lord
Percy Sholto Douglas" Josephine
Hood, a member of one Of the lead
ing families of Asheville, N. c., who
became a victim of the wiles Of the
progressing Englishman, by GER
emony of marriage, Dec. 16, 1906, at
Lake Charles, La, has broken the 81
lence of years by writing to an aunt
in her home town.
In her letter she cites some circum-
stances of adventure Detailing her In
company with the bogus lord, to
which she seems bound by hypnotic
spell, since she declares her belief IN
his uprightness and that she Is happy
and Is cared for in luxurious style.
She carefully refrains from telling
her present address.
The letter was mailed on train
going west from New Orleans. Mrs.
Cavendish tells of trips around the
world, Of. 20 transatlantic voyages,
of visits to Europe, Asia and Africa.
She mentions many gifts of jewels
from her husband and his lavish ex-
penditures which suggest that CaVen-
dish may be an international gambler.
Cavendish was notorious as a big.
amist at the time Of his marriage
with Miss Hood, and she IS believed
to be his ninth wife. The present
Mrs. Cavendish does not indicate that
she knows of his earlier marriages,
but does say plainly that she could
not communicate before or return to
her home because Cavendish has
troubles he hopes soon to overcome
and then they will live in Los An
geles.
Cavendish is said to have married
eight women in as many differen,
parts of the United States before he
met Miss Hood. One OF these he
married in Los Angeles, one in Fort
Worth, Tex; one in Norfolk, Va;
one in Georgia, one in Denver, Colo,
one in New Orleans, La, and one in
Ohio. All Of these women are said
to have written to Miss Hoods aunt,
but she has kept no memoranda of
their names. He soon deserted all of
them except Miss Hood.
