portions. Cincinnati waterfront build

Newport and Covington, KY, are vir-
tually surrounded by water. Dayton,
Ludlow, Bellevue, Bromley and other
Kentucky cities are badly flooded.
Railway service here is practically at
a standstill.
The city was practically cut off from
traffic communication with Coyington,
KY, across the river from Cincinnati,
early last evening, when the approach
to the suspension bridge became COW

SECOND FLOORS
BUT OVERTAKEN
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Pittsburg, March 30
For a few minutes this
afternoon the Associated
Press succeeded in gaining
telephone communication
with Parkersburg, West
Virginia. The correspond
ent there reported the river
stage at sixty-four feet,
higher than ever before
and rising three inches an
hour.
The water at / 30 was
up to second-story win
dows, and the entire busi-
ness section is under
water. As the wires failed
the correspondent said
that many had taken
refuge in second stories,
but the water is overtaklng
them there. Whether there
had been loss of life it was
unable to ascertain before
the line went down.

Her Life a Puzzle.

Extraordinary stories are told of
the eccentricities of mysterious old
lady, whose death occurred recently
in London. She was known to her
neighbors as Miss Burnaby and on
the rare occasions when she spoke to
them she assured them she was the
last surviving daughter of the late
General Burnaby. She was also said
to be a sister Of Col. Fred Burnaby,
the hero of the famous ride to Khiva,
Turkestan. Miss Burnaby lived in
house of six rooms with an aged
housekeeper; both were over seventy.
During the twenty years she had lived
in the house she was never known
to receive a visitor She went out
seldom-and then usually to church.
Her eccentricity was mostly concerned
with her love of animals. She kept
as many as dozen cats. These lived
in her bedroom and slept on her bed
or in comfortably lined baskets. Ev-
cry morning fresh outlets of fish were
given to her cats, each one receiving
its portion upon dainty plate. She
never went to bed at night till she
was assured that every cat was safely
at home.

Backache Makes Anyone Feel Old

Nothing ages anyone more quickly than
weak kidneys.
It is not alone the aching back, the stiff,
painful joints, but the evil effect OF bad,
poisoned blood on the nerves, the vital
organs and the digestion.
The condition of the kidneys makes good
health or ill-health.
The kidneys are the filters Of the blood.
Active kidneys filter from the blood ev-
cry day over one ounce of poisonous waste
and pass it off dissolved in the urine.
If the kidneys are weak or diseased. only
part of this filtering is done and the blood
is heavy with uric acid and other poison
GUS or waste matter.
Instead of being nourshed by the
blood, the nerves and vital organs are ir-
ritated, and the circulation, digestion, ETC.,
are disturbed.
If your back aches constantly, if your
joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect
the kidneys.
Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dull,
heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy
at times, subject to headaches and an
noyed with sharp, piercing pains that
make work an agony and rest impossible.
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recom-
mended and most widely used remedy for
weak or diseased kidneys. They act quick

ing drugs and leave no bad after-affects

Patriotic Women.

When praising the Balkan peoples
for their patriotism, do not forget the
patriotism of the Balkan women.
The war against Turkey could be
won only by sending every available
man to the front at once. The men
were sent, and women stepped for
ward to do work which men had done
before. Women are driving cabs and
carts, cleaning streets, running street
cars, loading and unloading ships and
trains, doing all the clerical work and
all the agricultural labor usually per-
formed by men.
An American woman living in Ath-
ems writes that men between eighteen
and forty-flve years have practically
vanished from the city. Their chauf'
feur is gone to the war and a woman
drives their car. The hotel chef is at
the front and his wife rules the kitch-
en- in his place. Athens has suddenly
become city of women, children ane
old men. Doubtless the same is trua
