MERCHANT GIVES THANKS
Hartford Dealer Tells Of Trouble
From Weak Kidneys.

When our own citizens come for
ward, as Mr.. King has here, and tell
about their experiences, with Doan's
Kidney Pills, 1t gives other Hartford
people faith in the remedy and a
desire to try it. That's just why Mr.
King has made this statement-he
wants his fellow-townsmen to know
how he was relieved. This testimo-
ny furnishes a good reason for you
at least to try Doan's Kidney Pills.
S. L. King, proprietor Hardware
stope, Hartford, KY, says: II had
pains across my back and finally
began taking Doan's Kidney Pills.
They certainly helped me. I can
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills
highly to anyone in need of a medi-
cine for disordered kidneys"

simply ask for kidney remedy

FIRST: He has increased the
revenue of the state in round
numbers, in the last three years,
TWO AND ONE-HALF MIL
LION DOLLARS - more than
enough to pay the state out of
debt. He is the only Auditor
who has had the courage of his
convictions; who has had the
nerve to defend the state against
the corporations, and in the face
of all opposition he raised the
assessments of the corporations
from $4S,OO0,O00 To- more than
$751; 100000 annually. This re-
quired a courageous fight because
corporations as a rule do not lay
down, but with their array of law
yers they fight to the bitter end ;
hence the record of Henry NJ.
Bosworth will go down in history
as the greatest record ever made
by any Auditor of the state.

worth is practical man; he is a

ly all who kept afoat a minute or
two were saved
Perhaps a hundred, who had
chung to the rails, clambered back
on the side of the vessel which
stood up few feet out of the wa
ter. Tugs an dlaunches took them
off.
When the police and lifesavers
tried to get at the people IN the
hold of the vessel. they found their
way barred by steel plates.
The contractor on a skyeraper
two blocks away stopped his men
and the steelworkers began burning
great holes in the side of the ship
with acetylene torches.
Two or three holes had been cut
and divers let down to bring up the
dead and dying when Capt. Peter
son objected.
ITO - with the ship" shouted
the police official in charge Of
the work. We are saving lives"
Before night nearly the whole
side of the ship had been cut away.
1t was through these holes that the
1 300 bodies were brought out.
Several living persons were
found. Two sisters. taken out and
revived with pulmotors, were taken
to a hospital, temporarily insane.
Eight hours after the tragedy a
year-old infant was found. It's
dress had caught in what was the
side and became the roof of state
room. 1t was the only cheerful in
cident in connection with the disas-
ter.
Hour after hour the dead piled
up. The big grocery and commits
sion houses along the river stopped
business and opened their store
rooms as temporary morgues. When
darkness fell 900 bodies were laid
in rows. with aisles at the heads and
feet, in the warehouse of Reid, Muir
dock & Co. Hour after hour the
police beat back the frantic rela-
tives, letting them in one at time
to attempt to identify the dead.
The crowd remained downtown
late, weeping and walking from
warehouse to warehouse and morgue
to morgue. The families of practi-
cally all the dead we're downtown,
having come to go on the picnic on
one of the five ships. Many families
were wiped out entirely, but in
many cases the young folks took
one boat while the parents chose
another. so that the disaster broke
the families in pieces.
The majority of the dead were
women and children.
There was a hero for every per-
son saved and a broken family for.
everyone of the 1900 dead. One of
the most remarkable experiences of
a hundred heroes is the experience
of Herbert Boettcher, 10 years old,
who got out of the hold through
hatchway with three girls he did not
know hanging. one to his neck. one
to his coat tails and to his foot.
His own sweetheart, he sobbed to
the man who picked him and the
three up in boat. was drowned in
the hold.
And most pathetic, perhaps. was
the bringing up of the bodies of two
infants, tied in their go-carts.
