Don't Wait for the Fatal Stages oi Kidney Illness. Profit By Stafford Springs Peoples Experiences.

Springs Peoples Experiences.
 Occasional attacks of backache, ir- regular urination, headaches and dizzy spells are frequent symptoms of kid ney disorders. It's an error to neglect these ills. The attacks may pass of for a time, but generally return with greater intensity. Don't delay a minute. Begin taking Doan's Kidney Pills, and keep up their use until the desired results are obtained. Good work in Stafford Springs proves the effectiveness of this great kidney remedy.
 Mrs. John Irons, Furnace ave. |, Stafford Springs, Conn.,, says: "Kid- ney trouble came on me first with a heavy pain through my back, then the kidney secretions bothered me and l became all run down. I could hard ly get about to do my homework. Being advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills by relative whom they had benefited, got box at the Eaton Drug Store They brought the best of results.

Discovery Comes
 After 5000 Years
Buffalo House Takes the Taste
 Out of Castor Oil

Since the earliest days of medicine chemists have been trying to take the taste out of castor oil.
 The secret has at last been discov- cred by Spencer Kellogg & Sons ot Buffalo, who are among the largest producers and refiners of vegetable oils in the world. They have re- moved the castor oil taste, and smell, too, purifying the oil and making ii better and more effective. Nothing is added to it, nothing good taken out of it.
 Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil is tasteless in the true sense. Even chill dren take it easily, for all the nau- seating effect is removed.
 Sold now at all drug stores in 25c and soc sizes. Ask for Kellogg's s Tasteless Castor Oil by name, for there are several preparations of cas- tor oil, mixed and favored, which are not tasteless and do not act as we'll.
 The public is protected by the trade mark, a green castor leaf, bearing the signature, Kellogg's.
 Made only by Spencer Kellogg & Sons, Inc. Buffalo, N. Y, refiners of vegetable oils.

De aquellos que a Coronado

A cobrar TERRA perdida,
Y victoria decidida

La vista transitoria
Del distinguido Don Juan;
De este ministrO dc Espaila
Tan leal y tan caballero,
Tan patricia y tan sincere,
Tan spuesto y tan gaIan.

Muy grande y no merecida,

Porque demuestra dc verss
Que de su patria Don Juan
Estima con noble sfan

worlds record. In true Sunday school

WASHINGTON, June 9.-President
Wilson to-day decided on the follow
ing diplomatic appointments:
Thomas Nelson Page. Of Virginia,
to Italy; Henry VanDyke, Of New
Jersey, to the Netherlands; John r.
Lamb, Of Terre Haute. Ind, Ambas-
sador to Mexico, and Meredith Mich
olson, Of Indianapolis, Minister to ons
Of the smaller European states, prob-
ably Belgium.
All these nominations. except that
Of Mr. Lamb. probably will go to the
Senate within the week.
The Mexican appointment will be
held up until next fall because the
United States does not consider It
polite to appoint an Ambassador to
Mexico until after the election in that
country next October.
The State Department does not
wish to recognize the Huerta gov
eminent and it is feared that the
appointment Of an Ambassador at.
this time will be construed by the
Mexicans as a recognition Of the pres
ent administration.

WILSON To MAKE
No ANSWER To
LOBBY CHARGE
President Tells Newspaper Cab
met" That Townsend's Accusa-
ton Is Not Formal.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The lobby
investigation. according to President
Wilson, is clearing up a most dis
agreeable situation and will result in
the cleansing of politics from an I'M
fortunate phase which has existed for
many years"
In his semi weekly conference with
the newspaper cabinet to-day the
President showed he was most opti-
mistic concerning the outcome of the
inquiry
The Chief Executive declined to
discuss the charge of Senator Town
send, of Michigan, that he has been
lobbying for the purpose of the I'm
derwood tariff bill, because. he said,
the Senator's charges have not yet
been formulated in a manner suffi-
cient to warrant an official denial,
either from the President as regards
the bill itself or from the White
| House with respect to the use of the
big stick of patronage"
When asked if he will testify be-
| fore the lobby committee, either in his
official capacity or as a private citi-
zen, the President side stepped by
| saying:
Il have not yet been invited and
therefore can not say what | will do"
Senator Sutherland Republican, Of
| Utah, testifying in the lobby quiz to-
| day, confessed to owning 1900 shares
| Of mining stock he valued at about
cents a share and 1850 shares Of
stock In the Amalgamated Sugar
Company, worth SO a share. His In
| terest in mines and sugar would in
no way influence his vote, he said
Senator Reed, of the investigating
| committee, declared a lobby exists,
and I'm proof Of his assertion called
| the attention of the committee to the
number of legislative agents at the
| Capitol when Congress reconvened.
| The Senator said he talked with many
| Of these lobbyists. He said a mes
| sage to him read as follows:
! please vote against free sugar and
save the mule industry OF st. Louis"
! The Senator said he learned the
| muleteer5 Of st. Louis sold their stock
/ TO the sugar planters and he inferred
| that the sugar men had threatened
/ the market.
Il think that class Of men should be
| prohibited from lobbying In the Capt.
| toll Of the nation and in the Capitols
| Of various States" Reed said.
