A CORROBORATION.
Of Interest to Abilene Readers.
For months Abilene citizens have
seen In these columns enthusiastic
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills by Abi
ln residents. Would these promi
nent people recommend a remedy that
had not proven reliable7 wouia
confirm their statements after years
had elapsed If personal experience
had not shown the remedy io be
worthy of endorsement? No stronger
proof of merit can be had than cures
that have stood the test of time. The
following statement should carry con
viction to the mind of every Abilene
reader.
Mra. Laura Miller, 608 W. North
Sixth street, Abilene, Kan, says: "I
think as highly of Doan'a Kidney
Pills today aa when I endorsed them
In 1906. I am glad to confirm all I
aald at that time."
The statement referred to by Mrs.
Miller waa aa follows: "I can apeak
In the highest terms of Doan'a Kid
ney Pllla, aa they cured me of an at
tack of backache that had caused me
great suffering. 8ince using this
remedy, I have been free from back
ache and my general condition has
been much better."

ESoocPs Sarsaparilla
Has cured so many cases thai seemed almost beyond the
reach of medicine, that people ask, Why? .
An examination of our well-known formula, from which
Hood's Sarsaparilla is and always has been carefully and
scientifically prepared, confirms the fact that it contains
toniVud valuable medicinal up?
when intelligently combined and. properly administered,
are sure to bring about good results. .
It is the properly balanced proportion, combination
and process in combining those i ingredients -known to
have specific action upon the blood, stomach, liver, kidneys
and bowels, which make Hood's Sarsaparilla peculiar to
itself and enable it to produce results unetjualed by any
similar medicine. It cures when others fail. Give it a trial.

ARE NOT MAKING HEADWAY
SENATE PROCEEDING SLOWLY
WITH TARIFF BILL
Tha Real Meaaur Will Probably Be
Framed In Conference No Ad
journment Before July.
Washington, May . The possibll
itiaa nf tha naaaaza of the tariff bill
and the adjournment of the apeclal
session of congress oeroro June ia
or July 1 seems to have vanlahed.
This conclusion haa been reached by
the president as a result of recent
talka with senators and representa
tives, and he made It known yester
day. The senate la not making the head
way with the Aldrlch measure that
was expected and before the new
tariff law can be presented to the
president for his action there must
ensue a long conference between the
representatives of the two nouses of
congress.
Among those who have followed the
trend of Important legislation on
the tariff, there Is a belief that the
real tariff revision bill remains to be
framed in conference. Whatever In
fluence President Taft feels he can
bring to bear In securing a satisfac
tory measure will be exerted upon the
conferees. The president is averse
to being drawn Into the fight at any
stage and there Is no thought that
he will be until the conferees begin
their consideration of the two bills as
passed by the house and senate.
In view of conflicting reports as to
the president's attitude on the vari
ous special taxation propositions that
have been suggested In connection
with the new bill, the president has
reiterated his position to recent can
ers. He Is still hopeful that tne reve
nue to be derived from the new bill
and with economies in the administra
tion of the a-overnment, will prove
sufficient to prevent a deficit,
