A BIT OF ADVICE
First--Don't Delay. Second--Don't
Experiment

III you suffer from backache, head
aches or dizzy spells; If you rest poor
ly and are languid in the morning; il
the kidney secretions are irregular
and unnatural in appearance, do not
delay. In such cases the kidneys
often need help.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
prepared for kidney trouble. They
are recommended by thousands. Can
Audubon residents desire more con-
yincing proof of their effectiveness
than the statement of an Audubon
citizen who has used them and will
ingly testifies to their worth?
Mrs. George Green, Audubon, Ia,
says: II have taken Doan's Kidney
Pills with such good results that I
gladly recommend them to all kidney
sufferers. Short use never fails to
make my back strong and removes
all soreness and pain. My kidneys
are also toned up and all trouble
they cause, goes away. Doan's Kid
ney Pills are the only kidney medi-
cine that | could endorse"
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that

DAKOTA WOMAN KILLS
147 RATTLESNAKES

Perhaps the record for woman's
bravery this season in DISCRIMINATING
rattlesnakes has been set by Mrs. Ed.
Benish, young woman living out
west of the river near Pierre.
While walking over newly plow-
ed field she say big rattlesnake and
and at once killed it. When she had
the unpleasant and dangerous task
completed she saw that she was
literally surrounded by snakes. She
realized fully her danger-but also
thought what an amount of harm the
snakes could do at large-and so
screwing her courage up to the stick
ing point went at it and killed every
one.
After having finished with them
all she counted the ''scalps" and
found she had LAT to her credit.

TAKEN TO DIES MONIES

Lars Christensen, the Fiscus black
smith, who had one of his hands so
seriously cut last week while sharpen
ing rolling cutter for plow, was
taken to Des Moines, where DR.. Ros-
enbladt performed an operation last
ing an hour and a half. 1t is feared
that the fingers will be left stiff. Mr..
Christensen is still in Des Moines,
where he can receive the proper at
tention. The cut is at the base of
the fingers on the inside of the hand.
When the wound was first dressed
he was instructed to keep his hand
partially closed until the cords had
healed some. 1t seems that he did
not entirely follow these directions,
and the cords failed to heal as ex-
pected. All trust that he will recov-
err from his injury in such a way that
his fingers will not be left stiff.

CHILD LABOR BILL DELAYED
After Conference Between Author OF
Sill and Opposition, Subject 10
Not Taken Up.

Washington. - Filibustering tactics
resorted to by southern congressman
prevented the Heating child labor bill
from being taken up in the House.
1t was announced subsequently that
the measure would not be considered
before Representative Watson OF Vir-
ginia submitted minority report from
the labor committee opposing the
measure.
AS the time approached when the
Heating bill ordinarily would be reach
ed in the call of committees, Repre-
sentative Ragsdale of South Carolina
made the point of no quorum, and
long delay resulted while the members
came scurrying in. There was a hur
ried conference between Representa-
tive Heating Of Colorado, author OF the
bill, and some southern members who
oppose it, after which it was announc.
ed that the bill would not be taken up
pending the submission Of the minor
ity report by Mr.. Watson.

FOOT CLIFF.
IN CASCADE MOUNTAINS
Dining Car Takes Fire and Fifteen
Persons Seriously injured - Ac-
cident Happened Where Two
Trains Swept Away.

Seattle, Wash.-Six persons were
killed and 15 injured in the dining car
and day coach of a westbound Great
Northern train when the two cars were
caught by snow avalanche and hurl-
ed 800 feet down the mountain side
near Corea Station, on the west slope
of the Cascade Mountains.
All Of the passengers, including the
injured, are now at Seattle. None OF
the train crew or dining car employees
was dangerously injured.
The ill-fated train, which mad been
stopped by a small slide, was about
ready to proceed, following the clear
ing of the track ahead, when an ava
lanche broke from the mountain side
and caught the dining car and day
coach. They were shot down the noun
tain side like chips.
The diner caught fire and was de-
stroyed. One dead man and three in
jured were extricated from it an a
charred body remained while rescuers
devoted their efforts to the other vic
Tins.
Concrete snowsheds were erected on
the approaches to the Cascade tunnel
following the tragedy of Feb. %, 1910,
when two passenger trains were swept
from the track by a snow slide near
the scene of the present accident.
Railroad engineers believed all points
liable to be reached by slide had
been protected.
Corea is about 100 miles east OF Seat
tie and is at the loop Of big switch

the west slope from the Cascade tunnel
and, Great Northern officials .safd, is

cred by snow, as in the 1910 disaster.
