10 NO REASON FOR IT When Norwich Citizens Show a Way. There can be no reason Wwhy any reader of this who suffers the tor- tures of an aching back, the annoy- ance of urinary disorders, the pains and dangers of kidrey ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor Who has found relief. Read what a Nor- wick citizen sa: Mrs, Mary Neff, 465 Main St, Nor- wich, says: “For many vears one of my family was subject to attacks of kidney complaint. He suffered from pains across his loins and at times could scarcely get about on account of his back being so stiff and lame. The kidney secretions were irregular n passage and often contained sed- iment. Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at N. D. Sevin & Son’s Drug Store, proved of benefit from the first and soon every symptom of kidney com- plaint disappeared. I willingly con- firm all I said in praise of Doan's Kid- ney Pills in the statemene I gave a few years ago. Nothirg has occurred to change my high opinion of this remedy” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Props., Buffalo N. Y. Rheumatism Yields Quickly to Sloan’s.

Hartford, March 31—The woman saffrage bill, which carried with it a referendum ‘to the people, came from the committee with a report unani- mously against the proposition.

A strong lobby 1s at work in favor of the di- vision and lieutenants, sergeants, cor- porals and privates have all been as- signed to their part of the lobby work Whether it is all a labor of love and devotion to the Dest interests of ail concerned, or for some other substan- tial reason, is an open question.

The Colonial Possessions of Germany Which Were Captured By Austra- lians. (Special to The Bulletin.) hington, D. €., March 31—G ing a picture of the islands of the omon which belonged to Ger- many the war, but which were captured by the Australians some months ago, a writer for the National Geographic society says: When a man has learned to without ambition and to turn his back on hope without regret, then the is ands of the South Pacific are ready to receive him as their own. Yet to them turned Germany when its appe- tite for empire led it forth upon its tedious quest for unclaimed places on the earth. Tt therefore happened that at the outbreak of the present war Germany had sovereignty over those two i significant dots of land upon the end- less expanse of the South Pacific, known as Buka and Bourgainville, of the Solomon group. These islands were small, but, nevertheless, were an asset to a nation interested in the Far East, The generation of Germans that fol- lowed the empire-builders.of 1871 soon felt the need of colonial expansion, but, when they looked around it seemed that every foot of the earth's worth- while surface had been taken as a colony or a ‘sphere of interest’ How ever, about 1884, the German New Guinea company was formed, and Ger- man warships began a careless brows- ing in the Pacific. “The gunboat Adler (Eagle) took possession of the Solomons on Octo- ber 30, 1886. A German-English con- vention in 1899 left Germany in pos- session only of the two most northerly islands in the group. Of these, Bour- gainville, the larger, is 125 miles long and between 25 and 50 miles wide. Buka is about 33 miles long, and be- tween five to ten miles wide. Togeth- er, their area is about 4,000 square miles. “Both islands have good harbors, and both are rich in forests and in ex- cellent agricultural _soils. In Buka, however, there is a lack of water sup- ply, while the larger island is crossed by innumerable streams, with thelr head waters in the interior mountains. The Germans built a_government sta- tion here in 1907, ana since then have made considerable progress in the task of civilizing the natives, who were em- ployed to do all of the improvement work. Up to a few vears ago, the male portion of the native population scorned all clothing, while the women “Pure at the source—Perfect atthe Journey's end.” Morning again!
