PeildletOn Raises Il Pertinent Ques-
ton.
When a neighbor tells us that he
has recovered from a serious illness
the first question that naturally aris-
es Is How long will he keep well?"
Temporary relief is one thing, but a
lasting cure is altogether different
There is nothing temporary about the
work of Doan's Kidney Pills as the
following evidence proves beyond a
doubt
It's Pendleton testimony:
Joseph E. Maggert, 615 Lewis ST
Pendleton, Oregon, says: Il felt quite
miserable from dull, dragging back
ache which was caused by heavy lift
ing. A friend said that perhaps NV
kidneys were causing this trouble and
told me to take Doan's Kidney Pills.
l used three boxes in all and was
completely cured. 1 gladly confirm
all said about Doan's Kidney Pills
when 1 publicly recommended them
in 1910. A short time ago when I
needed a kidney medicine, took
Doan's Kidney Pills and one box fix
ed me in good shape"

Inasmuch as Portlanders have sat
idly by and allowed all available wa
ter power to be taken by private con-
Germs it is more than likely If mu-
nicipal plant is established it will
have to be operated by steam. For
Pendleton the situation is different.
There is much water power available
for a Pendleton municipal plant yet
the authorities do not seem at all
anxious about making use of it A
few weeks since the council turned
down an offer of extension of time
on an option the city held upon a
good power site near Milton and that
when the extension would have cost
nothing. Are local people going to sit
around until every bit of water power
is taken and then establish mu-
nicipal steam plant for lighting pur-
poses?

LITTLE POLLY's POME.

Ffngernails.
Fingernails are given US
To protect the tenderness
OF the flesh beneath
We must keep them clean and cut
Shortly and quite neatly but
Never with the teeth.
If you bite your nails its bad
And the training you have had
Shows at a Glance
And it makes you nervous SO
Very soon first thing you know
Its Saint Vitals Dance.
If you would do nothing wrong
Never let your nails get long
Or the edges black
Cut them every week or two
And as soon as you are through
Put the scissors back.

I'VE have all the initiative and re-
ferendum We need now. Our Consti-
tuition Is all right as it is. What we
need Is more attention to getting hon
est and capable men to legislate ac-
cording to principles approved by a
century of experience. Then we will
have real and safe progress as we
have had in the past"
Judging from the foregoing it
seems the feet of the Illinois elephant
seek the upward route but the man
with the goad does not want Boliver
to get off the old time track.
