A New Back for an One. How it Can
be Done in Colfax.

The back aches at times with dull,
indescribable feeling, making you weary
and restless; piercing pains shoot across
the region of the kidneys, and again
the loins are so lame that to stoop is
agony. No use to rub ar apply plas-
ter to the back if the kidneys are weak.
You cannot reach the cause. Colfax
residents would do well to profit by the
following example.
Mrs. Lizzie Denning, 9G5 w. Division
St., Jenniogs, La, says: About seven
years ago / suffered severely from
backache and as the result, was unable
to do anything for some time. After
that was subject to similar attacks,
the weakness coming on suddenly. All
strength in my loins seemed to leave
me and my body often bloated. This
gradually grew worse and at times the
swelling was so great as to close my
eyes. / consulted a physician and he
said that my kidneys were disordered
but did not receive relief from his
medicine. l finally procured Doan's
Kidney Pills and since taking them
have felt better in every way. This
remedy has my highest recommends
tion."

The self-esteem of the Alexandra

The self-esteem of the Alexandria
board of aldermen, who lately address
ed a communication to the police jury
of Rapides parish, asking them to ig-
more petition of the citizens of that
parish for an election on the question of
prohibition, has received rather Sc
we're jolt. The executive committee OF
the anti-saloon league says they are a
body of men unauthorized to represent
the city of Alexandria on this issue;
that their act is presumptuous and I'M
democratic; and that it is in violation
of the referendum features of the com.
mission form of city government re-
Gently adopted and under which they
hold Office. They should go way back
now, and sit down and be good.

Turkey is Whipped to a FRAGILE.

The latest reports from the war in
Turkey announces the capture of Adri-
anople by the Bulgarians, which ends
the war. Turkey has left settlement
of her controversy with the allies to
mediation by the great powers of Eu-
rope. and the powers have virtually
agreed upon basis of mediation which
strips Turkey of her entire European
territory except small scope of coun-
try adjacent to Constantinople. Thus
has Turkey been deprived within the
last few years of more than nineteen
twentieths of all of the vast territory
over which she has ruled with such q
cruel and ruthless hand.
Were it not for the jealousies among
the great powers the Balkan allies ir
the present struggle would have taker
the last vestige of Turkeys territory
in Europe from her, and the light Of
truth and christian civilization would
hold sway where the Turk will now b.
permitted to rule.

Uncle George Explains.

Editor Collar ChronicIe:
read an article from Mr.. B. E.
Woods in your issue of March %. l
would not have Mr.. Woods to construe
my article into an accusation of nondis-
charge of duty as farm demonstration;
and, as l said before, | hope the police
jury will keep him or some other good
man at the business, because | believe
that is the very best method the govern
ment can adopt to get farmers out OF
the old ruts. / am glad Mr.. Woods
came out in explanation of his work,
for there may have been others besides
me who have gathered wrong ideas. l
said | thought the supervisor OF rural
schools was superfluous office, and |
do, since the work of demonstration by
the farm supervisor can very easily be
extended to the schools. 1t seems to
me 175 demonstration farmers are a
goodly number, and would be fully as
many as one man could visit during the
month. but the sumber could be lessen
ed so as to take in the rural schools,
especially those where there is plat
of ground for experiment, and the
farms still cover the whole parish Mr..
Woods thinks better and more up-to-
date farmer might be found. / don't
know about that. believe he will dc
great deal of good, for | think he is
conscientious and will do his best.
Farmers are nearly all from Missouri,
and have to be shown these things be.
fore they will accept the new ideas, but
after you get them to see it they viii
turn the new leaf and get in the pro
cession and be progressive. venture
the prophecy that every farmer wht
last year would risk only one or two
cuts to work on the scientific method j.
willing to put his whole farm on the
scientific list this year. Mr.. Woods
does not profess to know it all. That.
all right; no man ever has known all o.
farming, but Mr.. Woods no doub
knows more than most of US do abou
lit, and since his work gives him tn,
vast advantage of visits to and consul
tation with the best farmers and thu
experiment stations all about, / see nj
reason why every farmer in his distric
should not be benefited by his work.
Very respectfully,
UNCLE GEORGE.

Easter Sunday is movable festival,
conditioned on the conjunction of the
planets, and by custom and long usage
is regarded as the beginning of spring.
By an unusual celestial triple play,
says the Memphis Commercial Appeal,
for the first time in ffty-seven years
Easter Sunday this year was moved
back to the middle of March, whereas
its average time of appearing as an in
Dictator for the opening of spring is
about April l. Owing to weather con-
ditions this is an unfortunate circum-
stance, in that fathers and hubbys are
expected to provide the wherewithal
for winter mufflers and gossamer gowns
to suit miladi in her dress parade. Two
hats and two outfits, but still the giddy
and gaudy parade must be provided
whether in or out of season.

"snobbery in Children. ("

This is the ching" that forces SO
many schools and colleges to adopt a

in many instances that the proposition
is made to adopt a uniform for the pub

of this week by one of the most de-
structive storms that has swept the
country since the great storm which
destroyed Galveston. Not only is havoc
reported from the three States mention

portion of other States, until the de-
struction of life and property has become
something appalling, and the catastro-

lamity.
President Wilson has ordered the i'm
mediate purchase of a million rations
for the sufferers by food and fire, AND
several thousand troops to move into
the flooded districts in order to protect
life and property and aid in the work OF
rescue. He has also issued proclama

Aswell Inquiries About Delay in the
Backbone Land Grant Cases.

Washington, d. c., March %. Rep
resentative Aswell, of Louisiana, who
is spending the interim between the
regular and special sessions in Wash
ington, formally requested the depart
ment of justice today to furnish a state
ment relative to the long delayed suits
in the federal court at Shreveport,
growing out of the New Orleans and
Pacific railroad land grants. He told
the New Attorney General, Mr.. Nc
Reynolds, that the suits have been
pending for approximately ten years,
and that the delay is an injustice to
Louisiana people who are interested.
The register Of public lands at Baton
Rouge, Fred j. Grace, was recently in

Aswell regarding the cases.

The New Orleans papers OF this week
contained articles relative to the sale
of the L. R. & N. Co. to the M. X. &
T. Ry., and purported to have inside
information that the M. X. & T. would
lease the Edenborn line if a sale out
right was not made. Mr.. Edenbarn
was in Alexandria Thursday morning,
and while there took occasion to say
that the reported sale or lease OF his
railroad was 1.-THE dream of the news
paper men, The article below, taken
from the Town Talk of March n, will
probably explain how the rumor got
started, viz:
A special train over the l.. r. & N.
arrived in this city at 10 O'Clock this
morning from New Orleans, and LETT
fifteen minutes later for Shreveport.
The train was composed of three coach
es. two of which were the private cars
Of the M. X. & T. Ry. The officials on
the train were President VIM. Eden
born and Vice President H. B. Helm,
of the L. r. & NJ; President c. Z.

Vice President c. Hale, Chief Engineer

Agent ]. L. West, of the M. X. & I.
President Edenborn was interviewed
relative to the report that there were
negotiations on foot for either a pur-
chase of the l.. R. & N. road by the
M. X. & T. or that arrangements were
being made whereby the M. K. q I. is
to use the tracks of the l.. r. q N.
from Shreveport to New Orleans Mr..
Edenborn said: "To be plain about
that report will say that it is simply
the dream of the newspaper men, who
have circulated it, and that there is nc
such thing on foot.
| Mr.. Edenborn said further to repre-
sentative of Town Talk that President
Schaff and party were simply the guest:
of the L. R. & N. on this trip. Tha'
there is a great deal of business trans
ferred from the M. X. & 7 to the l.
R. & N. and that naturally the officials
of the road wished to make trip Owe
the line to see it. That they had gone
into New Orleans the other day Owe
other lines as guests of those lines, ant
that is all there is to it.
