The great danger of kidney troubles
is that they get firm hold before the
sufferer recognizes them. Health is
gradually undermined. Backache,
headache, nervousness, lameness, sore
ness, lumbago. urinary troubles, dropsy,
gravel and Bright's disease, follow in
merciless succession Don't neglect
your kidneys. Help the kidneys with
the reliable and safe remedy, Doan's
Kidney Pills, which has cured people
right here in this localsty.
Mrs. Wslliam Ellison, r F. d. No. 1,

high an opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills
today as when publicly endorsed them
in 1907. My kidneys bothered me

unbearable. My limbs became stiff

first class condition the up
keep of these roads in the
future would be very light
and the money raised from
the annual road tax could
then be largely expended on
the roads leading to the main
highways. In this way then
every road in the county
could be placed in good con
dition within a few years.
Then the farmers must not
forget that a very large pro-
portion of the interest on the
bonds will be paid by the au-
tomobile owners, and this
proportion is certain to in
crease each year, as the num-
Der of autos increase. Some
may say, "Oh, there will
meyer be many more autos in
this county than there are
now" But we advise them
to get that notion out of their
heads, for in two years from
now we expect to see fully
twice as many cars in the
county as there are today.
Suppose our prediction
proves to be correct, and
that there are $50 autos in
the county in 1915 and that
the state license on cars aver
ages only SIS each. That
would make $225O. Seventy
per cent of that is $1575,
which is the amount that
would come back to pay in
terest on the road bonds.
Say, this county issued G
per cent bonds to the amount
of 100000. The annual in
terest charge would be
$4,000. If $50 auto owners
paid $I575 of that amount il
would leave only 81, 425 to be
paid by all of the. other tax.
payers of the county. But
most Of the auto owners are
: also heavy taxpayers and be-
sides contributing to the in
terest payments by the
license on their cars, they
; ; would also help pay the inter
est in proportion to the
amount of property they own
: Under these conditions, we
can't imagine what argumen
any person can advance
. against the issuance Of bond,
: for the construction of gooc
roads in the county.

FAKE PLENTY on TIME no EAT.

There is saying that rapid eating
is slow suicide If you have formed
the habit of erting too rapidly you are
most likely suffering indigestion or
constipation, which will result even
tually in serious illness unless cor
rected. Digestion begins in the mouth.
Food should be thoroughly masticated
and insalivated. Then when you have
a fullness of the stomach or feel dull
and stupid after eating, take one of
Chamberlain's Tablets. Many severe
cases Of stomach trouble and constipa-
ton have been cured by the use of
these tablets. They are easy to take
and most agreeable in effect. Sold by

There is already some talk
IF special session of the
legislature next winter. The
Questions on which the body
would be asked to legislate
are of considerable import
ance, and it is claimed that
the benefit the state would
derive from the enactment of
the proposed measures into
laws would far more than Off
set the cost of the session,
which would be about $50, =
1000. On general principles,
we oppose a special session
of the legislature, for the
people are now over burdened
with law, but it is possible
that if sensible laws were
enacted along the lines sug-
posted in the article publish
ed elsewhere in this issue,
the state might be ahead as a
result of the special session.
Should the governor decide
to call the law makers
together next winter, we hope
that he will insist upon them
providing means for enlarg-
ing the insane hospital al
Blackfoot. One of the blund-
ers of the recent session was
the failure to provide for
funds with which TO meet the
increasing demands at that
institution. This would not
have been so bad had not 6
law been passed for the com
mittment of 'dope fiends'
and alcoholic victims in the
asylum. The law is all right
but that class Of people SHOULD
not be thrown in constan
contact with those who ar,
hopelessly insane. During
the short time which this Law
has been in effect, a suf1cien
number of "dope fiends" hav,
been sent to the institution
for treatment to over tax it
capacity to such an exten
that from three TO six inmate
are now crowded into som,
of the rooms.
The tragedy which was re
Gently enacted there was tn,
result of this over-crowde,
condition and there are likei,
to be other tragedies com
mitted there as long as tn
inmates are crowded togeth
er as they are now. Beside
charging the quarters 70
the inmates, living apart
ments should be provided 70
the superintendent and hi
family, away from the asylum
pepper.
After all that may be sal,
in favor of calling a specia
session, there is still doub
in our mind whether or not i
would be best to ask the pres
ent legislature to correct it,
sins of omission, or for tn,
state to wiggle along f o,
another year, in the hope
that the needed Legislation
will be taken care of by the
18th session.

LEWIS /. DEN|S0N DIES
SUDDENLY OF HEART FAILURE

Lewis H. Denison, one of the
proprietors of the Bee Hive res
taurant, died very suddenly this
morning at 7;15. He had arisen
early and opened the restaurant
and had prepared breakfast for
a number of people. Frank Men
ager happened in at a little after
seven O'Clock and gave his order
to Mr.. Denison, who passed in to
the kitchen to prepare it. Very
soon after, E. E. burst, a part
ner of the deceased entered the
dining room and passed on to the
kitchen. AS he entered he no.
ticed the body of Mr.. Denison
lying In the back door, about
half way out. He Immediately
gathered up the body and called
to Mr.. Menager for help. On
raising the body there was one
gasp and that was all. DR.. Hall
was called Immediately but on
examination stated that nothing
could have been done even had
physicians been on the ground at
the time, and that his death was
caused by heart failure.
Lewis H. Denison was about
"a years old and came to Roman
two years ago from Missouri.
He and Mr.. burst have been
raised together from boyhood
and have been partners in bust
ness at different times for the
past fifteen years. He had been
married but his wife died some
years ago. The deceased leaves
a daughter and a mother, both
of whom reside in Washington,
Iowa, to which place the body is
being prepared for shipment and
burial.
The deceased complained some
yesterday Of being sore about the
left chest but nothing was
thought seriously of it and his
sudden death this morning was
a great shock to his many friends
in Roman. He was a quiet. un-
assuming man and was we'll liked
by all who knew him, and to
Mr.. burst it is like the loss of a
brother.

WILSON INAUGURATION
SIMPLE AND POPULAR

Woodrow Wilson became presi-
dent of the United States last
Tuesday, March 4, amid impos-
ing ceremonies and tumultuous
scenes of popular greeting.
Standing at the historic east
front of the capitol he took the
constitutional oath of office, and
in his brief inaugural address
made fervid appeal to all pa
triotic men for counsel and aid.
This is not a day of triumph, "
he declared. 1T is a day of
dedication. Here muster not the
forces of party, but the forces of
humanity. Mems hearts wait
upon us; mems lives hang in the
bulance; mems hopes call upon
US to say what we will do. Who
shall live up to the great trust?
Who dares fail to try? l summon
all honest men, all patriotic, all
rward-looking men to my side.

LATE HELENA DOPE
NOT ENCOURAGING

The latest news from Helena,
received this morning, was to
the effect that the legislature
was still in session at 4 O'Clock
this morning. Nothing very
definite can be given as to the
final result in the matter of the
Brewer amendment to the gen.
eral law governing the organ
ization of new counties, in which
the people of the reservation
country are greatly interested.
At last accounts this bill was up
for consideration in the house.
1t had previously passed the
house and had been sent to the
senate and passed with a few
minor amendments. The house,
at last account, had it under con-
sideration for concurrence in the
amendments and the chances
were reported favorable for it's
final passage. This, however, is
doubtful, and we predict that the
"senate combine" killed the bill
with it's amendments.
The Lake county bill met an
untimely death in the new coun-
ties committee in the senate, and
our Poison friends will have to
start something new to liven up
the town on the lake.
Representative Brewer will
arrive home tonight, as will also

bone who have been spending
