DID MRS. BOYLE WRITE 11 DEMAND It Is Believed That the Prosecution Can Prove That She Did. PREPARATIONS FOR TRIAL WOMAN HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED, BUT THE 8TATE 18 KEEPING THI8 MATTER A 8ECRET FOR THE TIME BEING. Mercer, Pa., April 21. That the woman charged with the abduction of little "Billy" Whitla from Sharon last month Is not the wife of James H. Boyle, but is the unmarried daughter of very wealthy and respectable parents, whose character and standing are above reproach, is what the state expects to prove in the approaching trial of the kidnaping cases. Detective I. "My son was cured of a very, bad case of epilepsy with Dr. Miles' Nervine." MRS. D. BAKER, Cleveland, O. "My little daughter who was afflicted with St. Vitus' Dance is now entirely well after taking Dr. Miles' Nervine only four months." MRS. C. G. BENNETT, Alma, Mich. Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus' Dance and Spasms, are all nervous diseases. They have been cured in so many instances with Dr. Miles' Nervine that it is reasonable to conclude that it is almost sure to cure you. With nervous : diseases of a severe type, persistent use has almost Invariably resulted in a complete cure or lasting benefits, worth many times the cost of the remedy. The best evidence you can get of its merits is to write to those who have used it. Get a bottle from your druggist. Take it all according to directions, and if it does not benefit he will return your money.

V. Kepner. who disappeared from Mer cer immediately after the recent visit of Mr. and Mrs.: H. Chouteau Dyer of et. Louis, has returned, and announce ment has been made that he has positively identified the woman. Identification Kept Secret. Attorney T. C. Cochran, who i3 rep resenting Mr. Whitla in the prosecu tion, has refused to allow the identif cation to be made public, but will en deavor to have it introduced at the trial. Mr. and Mrs. Dyer, who par tially identified the woman, aa a maid who left'their employ about the same time that $10,000 disappeared, will return, it issaid, as witnesses before the grand Jury or at the trial. Telegrams said to have been sent by Boyle from Sharon to the woman at Warren, Ohio, about the time of the kidnaping, and from her at Warren to him at Sharon, will be brought into evidence to connect the woman with the abduction. Western Union Telegraph company officials at Warren and Sharon, will be subpoenaed to produce copies of these messages and testify regarding them. Counsel for the defense are said to have expressed considerable dissatisfaction because of the securing of the telegrams. Did Woman Write Demand? Attorney Cochran also expects to ahow the woman's connection with the abduction by proving that it was planned during her visit in Sharon with Boyle and that she wrote the letter demapding the ten-thousand-dollar ransom, which' was mailed by Boyle in Sharon. Court has convened with Judge A. W. Williams on the bench. The grand Jury will be busy with other matters, and the. abduction cases will not De nresented to it before Friday. It is probable that if indictments are re turned an immediate trial win ne assed for the state. A Joke en Offenbach. Offenbach, the famous opera bouffe composer, had an Insatiable thirst for success and fame combined with a vanity that occasionally played him a sorry trick. Once he was going down the Rhine on a steamer, among whose passengers was the Duke of Nassau, a fact of which the composer was in blissful ignorance. As the steamer approached its last stopping place the bank of the river was seen to be covered by a dense throng of people, who were shouting and waving their bats. A. band on the pier was playing a inarch from one of Offenbach's operas. As the boat touched the pier Offenbach stepped to the rail and bowed and waved his hat to the people in acknowledgment of this flattering oration. "It is glorious to be received in a foreign land hike this?' he reraarked to his companions. But his self complacency received a rude shock the next Instant when the duke's adjutant appeared and said In a rough and unfeeling manner: "Get ont of the way, will you, add let his highness show Himself!"

No woman can be healthy and well if the kidneys are sick. Poisons that pass off in the secretions when the kidneys are well, are retained in the body when the kidneys are sick. Kidneys and bladder become inflamed and swollen and worse troubles quickly follow. This is often the true cause of bearing down pains, lameness, backache, sideache, etc. Uric poisoning also causes headaches, dixzy spells, languor, nervousness and rheumatic pain. When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney Pills, a remedy that cures sick kidneys. You will get better as the kidneys get better, and health will return when the kidneys are well. Let a Richmond woman tell you about Doan's Kidney Pills. Mrs. Augusta A. Smith, Earlnam College, Richmond, Ind., says: "I had kidney complaint and was in a general run down condition. The kidney secretions were distressing and scanty in passage and often a brick-dust sediment was noticeable in them. Several years ago I began using Doan's Kidney Pills and they benefited me so greatly that I have no hesitation in recommending them to persons similarly afflicted." For sale by all dealers.
