convicted men as the result of meet
ing of the state board of pardons.
Three combinations of sentences
were issued, while six appeals were
denied. The sentence of Juan Girls
tobal Tafoya, Mexican, imprisoned
for life from Las Animas county in
December, 1907, for murder, was com
muted to parole in one year at the III
stance of the district attorney who
prosecuted Tafoya. In a general fight
Of MeXicans, one was killed and
rafoya was blamed, even though he
had been knocked unconscious in the
fight. Henry w. Smith, sentenced
from Denver in 1908 for the killing of
Paris Bramett, will be freed in about
four months. 1t was shown that
Bramlett had sought a fight Jacob

county in 1911 for assault to kill, will

Housework is a Burden

The daily cares of keeping house
and bringing up family are hard
enough for healthy woman. The
tired, weak mother who struggles
from morn to night with lame, ach.
Ing back is carrying heavy burden.
Many women believe that urinary
disorders and backache are female
troubles and must be endured. But
men suffer the same aches and trou-
bles when the kidneys are sick.
Women are especially subject to kid
ney disease. Tight clothing, indoor
work, the ordeals of childbirth, the
worry, and the STOPPING. straining and
striving of housework al; help to bring
1t on. At first the trouble may be only
backache. sick headache, dizziness
and a drowsy. dull languid feeling, but
this condition is dangerous to neglect,
for dropsy, gravel and deadly Brights
disease start in some such small way.
Don't be discouraged When back
I,he, nervousness and irregular or
painful passages of the kidney secre-
tions begin to bother you, use Doan's
Kidney Pills, the remedy that has
brought new life and strength to thou
sands OF suffering women. There are
no poisonous nor narcotic drugs in
