ted. Testimony of Canaan
 Citizens
 When 9 Canaan citizen comes to the front, telling his friends and neighbors of his experience, you can rely on his sincerity. The statements of people residing in far away places do not commnad your confidence. Home endorsement is the kind that backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such testimony is convincing. Investiga- ton proves it true. Below is a statement of a Canaan resident. No stronger proof of merit can be had.
 James o. Snyder, Bragg St., says ''My kidneys had been out of order for some time and I often had diff culty in passing the kidney secre- tions. My back pained great deal, too. When I stopped over, l could hardly straighten up. After using a box of Doan's Kidney Pills, procured from Farnum 6 Co.'s Drug Store, I had no more kidney trouble"

Significance of Dream of Pump.

To dream of q pump signifies that you may with study become a great musician, artist or actor as your in- clination leads you; development Is all you require; you have genius. To pump water from a well signifies that you will learn something to your ad- vantage. But if milk comes from the pump it signifies unexpected wealth. If wine or whisky, 1t denotes much happiness and good fellowship.

OUIMET is BEATEN TEST OF STRENGTH
Senate Vote on Navy Pay to
Show InSurgent Power.
Two Minor Victories Have Boil
stored Borah Forces.

Washington. May 24.-The real test
of the strength of the insurgent move
ment in the senate against administra-
ton leadership on appropriation bills
will come when the senate votes on
the naval committee amendment in
creasing the pay of the navy $751;
100000.
This means an increase in the per-
sonnet OF the navy by 10000 men over
the house provisions. The house set
the navy strength at 100000. The
senate naval committee made it 12o,-
600 by boosting the pay item.
Insurgents Encouraged.
The insurgents, greatly encouraged
by the moral" victory won in reduc-
ing the transportation item $1,000, 900,
knocking out entirely the S1,500,0O0
Alameda naval base proposition, and
virtually forcing the Borah disarma-
meat provision into the bill over presi-
dehkial objections, are to slash the pay
appropriation.
They realize, insurgent leaders said
that it will be difficult to beat the
committee. If they can, they will not
only save the $4,000, 900 involved, but
will clinch their psychological tri-
umph,- they feel.

MANY CASES OF SMALLPOX
Wholesale Exposure Here, Says DR.
Brown, City Health Officer.

There has been wholesale exposure
to smallpox in Topeka. with the result
that there are now twenty-eight ac-
tive cases under the care of the city
health department. There have been
reported during the present year lO9
cases, the largest number for several
years past, DR.. Earle G. Brown, city
health officer, stated today. Last year
there were only ninety-seven cases
during the entire year, and In 1919
only thirty-three cases.
Today information reached the
health department to the effect that
a man who was a guest in a Topeka
hotel some two or three weeks ago
was detained after leaving the city as
a smallpox case. This man exposed
everyone with whom he came in con-
tact, not only at the hotel, but also at
his work." Doctor Brown said today.
There has been wholesale exposure
from several sources, and the only
method of preventing an epidemic is
by general vaccination of every one
who has not been vaccinated."
The section of the city in which
most of the smallpox cases have been
reported is south of the Kaw river and
west of Kansas avenue There have
been no cases reported from North
Topeka, and the great majority OF
those on the south side of the river are
from the western part of the city.

MAY have TO PAY
Gov. Allen Asks Ross to Send
Check for $500.
Seven Former Inspectors Give
Testimony to Governor.

Governor Allen today invited George
B. Ross, former Sts-t1 grain inspector,
to make good on his proposal and send
a check for $500 for the Chinese relief.
Ross defied the governor to show that
the Chicken feed" system was prac-
ticed during his administration. Gov
ernor Allen stated he had testimony of
seven of Ross's former inspectors to
the effect that the policy was in op-
Grafton while Ross was in office.
Ross Offers 5000 To Fund
When Governor Allen issued a state
ment last week to the effect that the
Chicken feed samples were sold by
inspectors since establishment of the
department. Ross challenged the
statement. He offered a total of $500
if the governor would show it was fol-
lowed during his six years in office.
The governor today stated that in the
first three years of Ross's service he
turned but $50 from the chicken feed
fund into the treasury. A little less
than s2.500 was paid in during his ad-
ministration.
MY statement wasn't intended as a
criticism of either Hart or Ross said
the governor. II merely thought the
system was bad and ordered it abol-
ished. In view of the evidence which
/ have gathered l have asked Mr.. Ross
to send along his check for the $500
for Chinese relief"

nished Governor Allen informa lion re-
