STILL PREPARING CINCINNATI SPEECH

Secretary Taft Has Been Unable to tate It. as Yet DicSTUDYING DOCUMENTS. AFTER CAREFUL SURVEY OF THE FIELD HE WILL THEN START TO WRITE IS FOR PUBLICITY OF CAMPAIGN FUNDS. Hot Springs, Va,, July 15. W. H. Taft has progressed sufficiently with the task of preparing his speech to be delivered at Cincinnati when notified of hia nomination, July 28, to make plain the necessity of devoting two or three more days in a study of various platforms of the republican and democratic parties, and speed-ca and let ters of acceptances covering a good many years before he undertakes the work of putting his idcus in definite form. He has not begun the dictation of his speech. Yesterday and today in his work of determining what he will Bay at Cincinnati, ho has found it necessary to consult papers that had not been brought here and he has had to, telegraph to Washington for addi tional documents. He probably will continue to read and compare platforms, speeches and letters of ccceptance until next Friday and will devote Friday to dictating the speech which will contain about 3,500 words. Ever since the app'jintmont of Geo. R. Sheldon, of New Yorw, as treasurer of the national commfttee and the determination to have publicity of republican funds under New York lav, Mr. Taft has become more and more convinced of wisdom of that course and it la likely he will give it considerable prominence In his speech of acceptance. Ho is bearing in mind that in preparing his letter of acceptance he will have several week's more time and in it he will treat all these matters at greater length as the letter will compose about 15,000 words. Arthur I. Vorys of Ohio is expected here today and will have a talk with Mr. Taft. One-Third of Your Life. That much of your time la spent in bed.

IT IS SERIOUS Some Richmond People Fail to Realize the Seriousness. .... The constant aching of a bad back, The weariness, the tired feeling, The pains and aches of kidney ills Are serious if neglected. Dangerous urinary troubles follow. A Richmond citizen shows you how to avoid them. L. F. Cooper, of 714 North Thirteenth St., Richmond, Ind., says: "For two years there existed sharp pains in my loins and sides and a continual feeling of soreness. It was hard for me to stoop, life or bend over and when I caught cold it always settled in the kidneys. The secretions were irregular and much too frequent. The medicines I used brought me no benefit until I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills. I used two boxes of this remedy last winter and since then have been free from all trouble with the kidneys. I am. therefore, glad to recommend the use of Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

People who have never been in a jungle talk of the sky as a painter talks of the horizon or a seafaring man of the offing as If when you wanted to see it you only need use your eyes. But in the jungle you don't see the sky at least you only see a few scraggy patches of it overhead through the openings in the twigs and leaves. Neither do you feel the wind bolwlng, nor get burned or dazzled by the sun, nor even see that luminary except by momentary glimpses about mlddav. from which it follows that a Jungly man does not usually pretend to be weatberwlse. If he does he is even a greater humbug than the rest of the weather prophets. On the afternoon about which we are speaking I remember setting forth on my walk in the still glow of the tropical calm and wondering rather at the intense stillness of the surrounding forest. Then the air grew cooler and the green of the foliage in front seemed to deepen, and presently there was a sound as of a giant waterfall In the distance. Waterfalls do not, however, grow louder every second, whereas the noise in front did so. Then there was a loud, angry growl, as of a dozen lions. A minute more and the whole jungle began to roar as if fifty squadrons of heavy cavalry were coming up at a gallop. Then came a drop of rain and a peal of thunder which seemed to make the world stop. Then the storm began. The sky above darkened; the trees clattered; the brushwood beneath hissed and bowed itself. A deluge of raindrops blotted out the narrow view. Down it came, soaking through the densest leaves under which one fled for refuge, striking the grass and sand with millions of dull thuds, dashing furiously against the leaves as if they were so many nostiie shields, streaking the air with Innumerable perpendicular lines and hurling itself down with the force of bullets. In such a downpour one may as well walk and get wet as stand still and get wet. Unfortunately one did not know where to walk to. The "circumbendibus system" presupposes the fact that the wagon wheels and bullock tracks can be seen and noted, but when the cart track is no longer a cart track, but "all turned to rushing waters," such tracks cannot be seen, and unless you have a pocket compass you may as well try to fly as to get back to where you came from. When one reads of travelers lost in the backwoods, they always steer by the sun and probably very badly but when there Is no sun what are you to do? Siam Press. There is a quicksilver mine in Peru 4S0 feet deep. In this abyss are streets, squares and a chapel where religious worship is held. Headache? If it does, you should try Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills. "Why not do so. They will relieve the pain in just a few minutes. Ask your druggist There are 43,000 druggists in the U. S. Ask any of them. A package of 25 doses costs 25 cents. One tablet usually stops a headache. They relieve pain without leaving any disagreeable after-effects -isn't that what you want f "My son Frank Snyder has used Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain PUls for a lon time. He never had anything to help him so much for headache. A year ago he came home, and I waa down sick with such a dreadful nervous headache. He gave me one of the Anti-Pain Pills, and after while I took another and was entirely relieved. 1 always keep them la the house now. and gave many away to others suffering; with headache." MRS.

IDOLSOFTHE HINDOOS There Are Hundreds of Millions of Them In India. THE FAME OF JUGGERNAUT. This Idol Has Been Worshiped About Two Thousand Years, and His National Tempi Is on the Sands Puri The Three Monster Cars. If I were asked to describe India the first remark that would spring from my lips would be, "It Is a land of Idols." It would be impossible to compute the number of idols that there must be at the present time In India. The Hindoos pretend to have 333,000,000 gods, and these are represented by Innumerable Idols, so that we are quite bewildered with the thought of taking the census of the idols of India. The population of the whole Indian empire Is now about 300,000,000, and possibly the country contains ten times as many idols as people. Benares is the great center of th Idol making business, though In all parts of India the trade flourishes. Potters the day through may be seen In the sacred city molding lmases of clay for temporary use. Sculptors also j may ce iouna producing representatives of the gods In stone or marble. Carpenters, moreover, make great wooden idols for the temples, and workers In metal goldsmiths, coppersmiths and brass workers turn out more or less highly finished specimens in their respective metals. When speaking of idols It should b borne in mind that the Images turned out by the potter, sculptor, carver 01 manufacturer are not considered sacred or fit to be worshiped until certain mystic words have been uttered over them by a priest. The ceremony of "the giving of life," as It Is called, to the Image la a very solemn affair, and when It is done the Idol Is regarded as ho4y and must ever afterward bi approached and treated with the utmost reverence. Out of the many millions of so called gods In India, all of whom are counted worthy of worship, three are regarded as specially sacred and form the Hindoo triad or trinity. They are respectively Brahma, Vishnu and Siva. Of those It is stated the second per Bon of the trinity only has been represented on this earth by human Incarnations. Through one or all of these gods the Hindoos believe they may obtain salvation. Brahma represents the way of salvation by wisdom. Vishnu by faith and Siva by works. It ii Immaterial which method is adopted, as they all lead to the same goal. Juggernaut is perhaps the most famous name among all the Hindoo idols, inasmuch as his fame has gone forth into every land. His temple is situated on the sandy shores of Orissa, washed by the wild waves of the bay ol Bengal. The worship of Juggernaut dates back nearly 2,000 years, and Orissa has been the holy land of the Hindoos from that time till the present day. Sir William Hunter, who was one ol the greatest authorities on things Easl Indian, says in a wonderfully graphic description of the temDle of Jucirernaut: "On the inhospitable sands ol Purl, a place of swamps and inundations, the Hindoo religion and Hindoo superstitutlon have stood at bay foi eighteen centuries against the world. Here is the national temple whither the people flock to worship from every province of India. There is the gate of heaven whither thousands of pilgrims come to die, lulled to this last sleep by the roar of the eternal ocean." Well, I saw on one occasion that marvelous sight, the dragging of Juggernaut's car and the cars of his brother and sister. The three Idols are Inseparable, and ngly things they are, being nothing but huge logs of wood coarsely fashioned into human shape, but without arms or legs. Juggernaut's car stands forty-one feet high and has fourteen enormous wheels. The other two cars are Just a little smaller. The great cars have to be dragged a certain distance half a mile or more from the temple and the god will not allow horses or elephants to undertake the work, but calls upon his faithful worshipers to do it themselves. Immense ropes, or, rather, cables, are attached to the cars, and at the word of command from the priests thousands of men and even women and children rush forward and seize the ropes and range themselves in order and the next moment are straining and pulling at the cumbersome conveyances, which at length move witn a heavy, creaking noise. Never shall I forget the sight The road was filled with tens of thousands of lookers-on, all wild with excitement, and the fanatics who held the ropes were dragging the cars along with frenzied zeal. Every now and then there would be a stop that the men might rest, I supposed, but Instead of resting they took to iumxune In the air and to whirling themselves around like dancing dervishes and shouting at the top of their breath: "Victory! Victory to Juggernaut!" Once on a time infatuated worshipers would throw themselves under the wheels of the mighty car that they might be crushed to death, counting it a privilege and a Joy thus to perish. Some might do it today If the paternal British government did not provide against such catastrophes by taking all due precaution. John J. Pool, B. D, F. It. G. S., in Los Angeles Times. Yellow Fever. The first appearance of yellow fever Is said to have been among the soldiers of Coiutnbus in 1495. NOTICE.

Sir James Crichton-Browne was sent on a mission to Jamaica in connection with the British colonial office. While at Kingston he had an encounter with a colored but very humble official. Sir James, a strenuous sanitarian and an ardent Scot, was keenly Interested In the Scottish population of the island. "Do you have many Scotsmen in these parts?" he asked of the official. The darky thought for a moment and then answered, "Not many; Just a few, but enough." Sir James collapsed. A Diplomatic Tramo. "Why don't you vamoose? I said no.'
