If you have any form of kidney trouble, you are running the-risk of Bright's disease, dropsy, stone in the bladder, inflammation of the kidneys, diabetes. For kidney complaint never gets well of itself, ,and if neglected it must end fatally. It takes the kidneys, all the twenty-four hours of the day to keep up with their work of purifying the blood, taking out the uric acid and the waste matter, and passing these impurities out of the body. Weak, sickly kidneys, however, cannot keep up with their work. They must have help, and it is because Doan's backache kid- ney pills give the kidneys just the help needed that this medicine is so successful in curing kidney complaints. If the kidneys are not helped some of the uric acid and other kidney poisons are left in the body, and these im- purities irritate, clog, and hinder the heart, the liver, and the bowels. That is why the whole body is ill when the kidneys are ill. Health, depends on the kidneys. Look; after them, and when you do not feel as well as you ought—no matter what you think your trouble is-give your kidneys help, in Doan's backache kidney pills. This medi- cine is special kidney help all its healing powers go to the kidneys. It aids the kidneys in their great work, it soothes and heals the tired kidney membranes, dissolves crystal- lised uric acid, and keeps the body free from kidney poisons. Do not neglect any such plain sign of kidn ey disease as gravel, sediment, pain in the back or loins, puffiness beneath the eyes, swelling of the knees and ankles, urinary disorders, rheumatic pains, nervousness, strange, ir- regular action of the heart, dizziness, headache, pale complexion, pimples, feeling of ex- haustion or depression, etc., etc. Doan's backache kidney pills will make you feel better in «. few days, and they will cure you to STAY cured.

BARRY TARIFF REFORM LEAGUE.
BARRY TARIFF REFORM LEAGUE. ADDRESS BY MR. F. R. HOWE, NEWPORT. Under the auspices of the newly-formed branch at Barry of the Tariff Reform League, a meeting was held at the Barry Hotel on Friday evening last, a gratifying number of members being pre- sent. Mr John Thomas vice-chairman) presided. Mr H. V. D. Wilkins (organising secretary) paid although the branch had only been formed a few weeks, the progress made had been very satis- factory, and the executive had received enthusias- tic support. (Hear, hear.) The Tariff Reform League would never be disbanded until the electorate had returned to Parliament a majority sufficiently large to carry into effect those principles of fair trade which were absolutely essential to the welfare of this country. (Applause.) Mr F. R. Howe, Newport, delivered an able and practical address on the fiscal aspects of this country. Tariff reform, he said, was a great and difficult question, and it was owing to the difficul- ties to be faced that the subject was so easily misrepresented. He had been closely connected with the coal shipping industry for many years, having imported British coal from England and Wales whilst residing in Germany, France, and Belgium, and also carried on business in this country as a coal exporter. Mr Howe gave an interesting biographical sketch of the life of Mr Richard Cobden, of his rapid rise as a member of Parliament, his memorable travels on the Con- tinent, the enthusiasm and cordiality with which he was received, and the signal failure of his efforts to introduce free trade into the countries he visited. Personally, Mr Howe said he was a great admirer of Cobden for his staunch adherence to the principles he claimed to represent. To suggest that Great Britain had the monopoly of the coal exporting trade of the world was a fallacy, for America, Germany, and France were keen and dangerous rivals. He had never been able to understand the so-called free fooder," and it was a singular fact that if people consumed drink in less quantities the budget was found wanting. (Laughter.) The taxes on food and tobacco for 1904 amounted to £ 28,509,613, of which the latter article was responsible for £ 13,000,000. It was melancholy to reflect upon that during the space of a few years 69 steel and iron works had been closed in Glamorganshire and Monmouthshire as the direct result of unfair foreign competition. He spoke from experience when he said it was much easier for a working man and his family to live on the Continent than in England, and obtain better food as well. (Cheers.) Speaking of Mr Joseph Chamberlain, Mr Howe said he was a man who must be either loved or hated, although he was a man who had always advocated reform. Mr Chamberlain com- menced life as a shoemaker, but he had risen to be a model British statesman, and had done more for Colonial enterprise than any of his predecessors. (Applause.) — A hearty vote of thanks was accorded Mr Howe for his address, on the motion of Mr W. M. Douglas, seconded by Mr C. Make- peace, — The Chairman was also thanked for presiding.

DARING ROBBERY AT BARRY DOCKS.
DARING ROBBERY AT BARRY DOCKS. SMART CAPTURE BY THE POLICE. Early on Saturday morning last the shop of Mr George Cousins, outfitter, Dock View-road, Barry Docks, was broken into, A large plate-glass window was smashed, and a number of suits of clothes were stolen. The robbery was discovered by P.C. Beirne, and during the day Police- constables Clinch and Beedles smartly captured three marine firemen, supposed to hail from the United States of America, named Edward Dunlop (36). Charles Francis Coye (24), and Neils Neillson (26), belonging to the steamer ZiiJgaris, lying at Barry Docks. The men tried to dispose of some of the stolen property, and were wearing some of the clothes when apprehended. They were brought before M r J. Lowdon and Mr J. G Thomas at Barry Police Court on Monday, and charged with the robbery. Prosecutor said on the previous Friday night, about 10.35, he locked up the shop, and about three o'clock next morning he was sum- moned to the shop, and' discovered that the large plate-glass window had been smashed and five suits of clothes, with the exception of two waist- coats, were missing from the window.-Rebecca Friedman, second-hand dealer, of Thompson- street, said the prisoner Neilsen came into her shop on Saturday afternoon, and sold the coat and waistcoat produced for 5s. When the man had left the shop witness, seeing the label on the coat, became suspicious, and ran after Neilsen, who was brought back to the shop by a. constable.—Police-constable J. Clynch (447) stated that he was on duty in private clothes in Thompson-street on Saturday afterncon, when he saw the last witness running after Neilsen. Witness took the prisoner back to the shop, and asked where he got the clothes from. Neilsen replied, I got them from a Yankee in the saloon-bar." The constable thereupon took the man to Oulley's Hotel, where he identified the prisoner Dunlop as the man who gave him the coat and vest. However, Dunlop replied. "I never did it," and speaking to Neilsen, Dunlop remarked, I never saw you before." The men having been taken into custody, Clynch visited a boarding- house, No. 46, Thompson-street, and hanging in one of the bedrooms he found the coat produced. In company with P.C. Beedles he then went to 30, Dock View-road, and saw the prisoner Coye and another seaman named Yohansen. The constables found two coats and two pairs of trousers (portion of the stolen goods) in a box, which, according to Yohansen, had been put there that morning by Coye. The latter remarked, Yes. I had them from a man last night." Coye was arrested, and at the Police-station it was discovered that he was wearing two suits of clothes, one being identified by Mr Couzens as his property. The men were charged jointly, and in reply they all denied the theft, remarking that the clothes had been given them.—P.C. Beedles (375) stated that he searched Dunlop at the Police-station, and hidden under his shirt was a waistcoat, whilst the man was wearing three pairs of trousers, two of which were similar to those missing. When Constable Beedles was taking the men to the cells, Dunlop put his hand to his mouth, and said to Neilsen, "Keep that shut.On the application of Police-inspector D. Morris, the men were remanded in custody till to-day (Friday) for enquiries to be made regarding their antecedents.

MOTHER AND DAUGHTER CURED.
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER CURED. TERRIBLE GASTRIC ULCERS AND BILIOUSNESS CURED BY BILE BEANS. Mrs Waugh, of 29, Thornhill Houses, Thornhill Road, Barnsbury London, N., recently related to a London journalist, how Bile Beans rescued her from lifelong misery. "As far back as I can remember," she said, "I have suffered from bilious attacks, but about nine months ago my health broke down altogether. At a large hospital I was told that I had gastric ulcers Night after night I lay awake in agony from cruel pains in my chest and body. My strength gave way, and I lost all interest in life. The medicine I got from the hospital did me no good, and I had almost given up all hope. Reading about Bile Beans made me decide to try them. The result was remarkable. Soon my pains disappeared, my strength increased rapidly, and very soon I was able to go about my work as if I had never known what illness was. For a while I was afraid my recovery was too good to last, but now, after several months of excellent health, I can safely say that Bile Beans have cured me. Even the biliousness, my life-long trouble, has entirely disappeared. My daughter Grace, who is just fifteen, was also a martyr to biliousness. Every week she had an attack which left her weak and ill, and quite unfit for her work. Her skin was quite yellow and terribly blotched. I gave her a course of Bile Beans, and now, after a few week's preseverance, her complexion is beautiful. The biliousness has entirely disappeared, and her -work never seems to tire her." In thousands of homes to-day there is a very real skeleton-in-the-cupboard, an inherited tendency to periodical bilious attacks. The sufferers live in constant fear of the next attack, are never free from weakness and depression, and are usually a weariness to themselves, and to all around them. To all such sufferers Bile Beans offer not only prompt relief from present pain but a perfect and permanent cure. Bile Beans are com- pounded of Nature's rarest tonic-alterative herbs. They aIter the morbid condition of the functions, and establish sound health They accomplish all this so gently and genially that they do not irritate or injure the delicate lining of the digestive canal, and may be taken by the frailest invalid.

Fowler, the retiring treasurer, for his valuable services to the show, as treasurer and other- wise, for several years. The prospects of a successful show this year were regarded as being very encouraging, there being a substantial financial balance in hand from last year. With regard to the inter-town challenge cup competi- tion, the Secretary was directed to write to the committees of the Cardiff and Penarth Shows applying that the cup be offered this year in con- nection with the Barry Show. The date of the show was not fixed, but it will probably be held on the 16th of May. Several regulations were con- sidered, and arrangements were made for future meetings, the next to be held at the Windsor Hotel not later than the 20th instant. It was re- solved that each committee-man shall either subscribe, or collect, 10s 6d towards the funds of the show, and instructions were given to advertise in the Barry Dock News for tenders from the local printers for the execution of the printing work of the show.
