Sampson's Home Entered by
Prowler
While Mr. aad Mrs. K. A. Kindell
were at the dance at Elk's hall Satur
day night, a putty thief made an un
successful attempt ;o burgularize their
bouse.
Kor the last couple of weeks Mr. and
Mrs. Kindell have been making their
home with Postmaster W. 15. Sampson.
Simpson has I eeu in the hospital for
sever.il weeKs but returned to hisVmie
about a woeK ago. The night prowler
was undoubtedly acquainted with the
circumstances, but did not know of
Sampson's return from the hospital,
anj while Mr. and Mrs. Kiiulell were
awav thought he had clear sailiug.
About 11:30 o'clock Sampson heard
some one skirmish around in the room
adjacent to the one where he was
asleep, he though! the noise to be un
usual and demanded to know who it
was, at first there wris no answer, out
as Sampson's voice jrew louder and
more emphatic, a voice with an Eng
lish accent answered "It is me sir."
Sampson was then convinced that he
had a midnight visitor and proceeded
to find out vhst his business was, but
in so 1oing the intruder made his get
iway feoru the house as fast as possible
going through the window where he
had entered, without accomplishing his
purpose of robbery.
The matter has been reported to
Chief of t'olicc Moore, but' the only
clue he has to work on is the peculiarity
in the man's voice.

If there Is tho slightest doubt In the

fact that a. rabbit Innoculated with the

ft must be apparent to any person
therefore that the only prevention of
baldne s is the destruction of the germ
whlch ac' is successfully accomplished
in one hundred per cent of cases by
the application of Newbro s Herplcide.

In congress, was accorded an enthus
iastic reception at a meeting held in
the A. B. hall last evening. In the ab

non-partisan committee, on account of
illness. Col. Sol. Iiipinsky, in a few
well chosen and eloquent remarks, in
troduced the candid ite to an audience
which made up in enthusiasm all and
more than it lacked in numbers. Gov.
Swineford spoke for more than a hour
anl was listened to with marked at
tention save-when interrupted by fre
quent and loud bursts of applause. At
the close of his speech he was tendered
a unanimous vote of thanks after which
he was introduced 10 and cordially
greeted individually by the many voters
present.
| Friday forenoon the ex-governor was

self a.* much pleased with the bfautifut

ever, this was not his first visit, he
hayini; "een here as lone ago as 188t>,
at which time there was but two wnite
residents, one of whom was the gentle
man who introduced him to his audi

specimens of rich copper-pold ore
shown and the statesments made to him
on the lar^e extent of the Rainy Hollow

the expression of a belief in a brilliant

J. \V. Strong, a retirrd veteran of 506

"Up to three years ago 1 had never
*utTeted any form of kidney complaint.
After that time I moved up the Colum

months after locating there I began to
ootice symptoos of kidney trouble. The
rirst was a dull aching pain across the
back, and which anally got so baj that
I was unable to get out of the house at
? 11. Changes of position were accom
panied with severe twinges of paiti and
the kidney secretions were dark in
co or and contained a heavy sediment,
and pa-sing was accompatiieu with
paio. I think all this trouble was
b ought on by drinkin impure water
while at Whatcom lake. However tiue
that may be, i procured a box of Doan's
Kidney Pills took them according to
directioos, and was completley cured of
my troubles. About a month ago I had
a severe attack of the grip and was
afraid this would bring on kidney
trouble atra'-n, but there has been no
symptom of a recurrence. I am satisfi
ed that the cure is permanent."

A Puzzling Disease
[Original.]
"Next!"
A young girl arose from her sent In
the waiting room of Dr. Cordis anil
passed through folding doors Into the
doctor's consulting room. The doors
were closed behind her.
"Good morning, Alice. What can I
do for you?"
"Doctor, I wish you to tell me the
symptoms of some unusual disease."
"What for?'
"I am in love with a recent graduate
of the College of Physicians. lie Is iu
love with the science of medicine. I
wish him to become interested in me
through my disease."
"You little fraud!"
"This is a world of fraud, doctor."
"You mean a world of fraud for wo
men."
"Certainly; we have not the power to
gain our ends openly."
"You are at least frank."
"Come, doctor; there's a dear, good
man, tell me what X wish to know."
"Do you love him very much?"
"Yes."
"And will die if you don't get him?"
"Yes."
"Then I must save you."
Going to a rosewood desk, he wrote
something, folded the paper and hand
ed It to her.
"These are the symptoms of a dis
ease that no physician can determine,
for there Is no such disease, unless it
be love."
"Thank you, doctor. I must ask you
to wait awhile for your fee, for I have
not a cent. Besides, I think doctors
should be paid in proportion to the
value of their advice. If your disease
succeeds I will pay you double; If it
fails 1 will pay you nothing."
"But how will you pay double if you
have nothing to pay?"
"You are very stupid, doctor. The
man I wish to impress is rich."
"You villain!"
"You villain's accomplice! After all,
the chicanery is not solely with our
sex."
"Oh, yes, It Is. It emanates from wo
men and is catching with men."
"Goodby, doctor. Thank you."
The girl passed out by a side door.
A few weeks later Dr. Cordis re
ceived n call from a physician who had
been his pupil and was a great favor
ite with him, youug I>r. Thorax.
"Doctor." said Thorax, "I wish to
consult you about a patient of mine
who has symptoms nowhere to be
found In our medical works, a very
puzzling case." And Pr. Thorax pro
ceeded to give his former preceptor the
symptoms the latter had laid down for
the youug girl.
"These symptoms." said Dr. Cordis
after perusing them, "would be best
studied by a careful and constant su
pervision of the patient. You must get
the youug womau Into a position where
you can be with her night and day."
"But that could only be doue by mar
riage."
"Well."
"1 am not thinking of beiug mar
ried."
"Then you have ouly to turn over
your case to some one else."
"But I can never be satisfied till I
have found the correct diagnosis."
"Doctor, you must settle this matter
for yourself."
Dr. Thorax went away much puz
zled. For the tirst time in his life he
began to think of a woman with refer
ence to possessing her, and when such
an idea takes root in a man's head It
grows like a mushroom. His fascina
tion for the study of the peculiar dis
ease of Miss Alice Bland and this new
idea were like two bumblebees alter
nately buzzing in his bonnet. No soon
er did he get rid of the oue than he
was beset by the other.
Dr. Cordis' health gave way under a
strain of too much work, and be went
abroad. He returned quite reco "ered
and took up his practice. One moruiug
he received a card. "Mrs. Henry B.
Thorax," and in another moment re
ceived the lady.
"Good morning, doctor. I have come
to pay my bill."
"Bill? Do you mean to insult me by
offering me money for"?
"You did it all. I ouly plauned It
I told you that if it succeeded I would
pay you double."
"You mean the man you snared
would pay me double."
"Exactly."
"Very well. Physicians never make
each other any charge."
"In that cage I have to thank you
for the deception you practiced in my
favor."
"Deception! I deceive?"
"Certainly. You carried out my
scheme to secure a husband admira
bly."
"I did not I remained neutral. I
told Thorax that he could only find out
your disease by marrying ,you."
"If you had told the truth you would
have revealed my plan."
"That would not have been acting
honorably toward you."
"Nonsense. That's jnau's boasted
logic. Would you respect the confi
dence of a man who told you be was
about to rob another of his money?"
"No."
"Then why keep the secret of a
woman who avows that she is about to
rob your friend of his heart? more than
that, help her to do so?"
"Who says women are not logical?
They are logical, but only in one re
spect They are perfect mistresses of
fallacy."
"Good morning, doctor."
"Good morning, Mrs. Thorax. I grip
pose your husband will contribute his
discovery to medical science."
"He has made no discovery, and 5
flon't intend that he shall."
