Are In Projiet't. Another salary-Increasing day was yes terday In the City Council, and the members were generous with the tax payers" money In remembering the varl ous employes, many of whom were a! ready on large pay. Advances were granted to Chief of Police Cox and Cap tains Raty. Bailey and Stover and Assis tant Fire Chief l-audenklos and Bat talion Chiefs Young. Dowell and Ftevena were likewise fortunate. In ad dition to these. 3 firemen were favored. The salary of the Chief of Pnltre was Increased from fc3 to tSO. Patrol Cap-. tain Bat)-. Bailey and Slover from t'M to r5: Assistant Fire Chief Laudenkloa was granted aa Increase from t'.'i to and Battalion Chiefs Toung. Dowell an.1 Stevens from tlbo to S1T& a month. Tiiese are In addition to rts already granted. aggregating I1S.OO a year. There was not a dissenting vote In the Coun cil on any of the propositions. So encouraging Is the prospect that the patrol sergeants, of whom there are eight, sent In a petition for an Increase from J: IS to SIS a month, which un doubtedly wCI be aranted. as the mem bers of the Council are In a generous mood, judging from their actions thus far this year. There Is also pending an application from 2 captains In .the fire department, for an increase from 1115 to SLS per month, which will probably be favorably acted upon. There baa been a large Increase n salaries of the police captains. Four years ago they were receiving SSO a month, the positlona being filled by the same men as at present. These officers work eight hours a day. Their pay was Increased largely because of the fact that the Council last year decided that the captain of detectives, who works frequently as many as 1$ hours a day. should have more salary than the patrol captains, who work eight hours a day. Now that all are rated equally again, 't Is regarded aa certain ttbat another effort mill be made to Increase the sal ary of the detective captain to M a month. It Is believed that this will carry If presented, as several of the members of the ways and means com mittee have so expressed themselves. The salary of the Chief of Pullce was Increased to place htm on an equal basis with the Chief of the Fire Department. The Invariable" reason given by Coun r'lmen In granting so many increases la the advanced cost of living over former yearf. $100 A MONTH IS GIVEN rtu-ilne9 House Increases Subscrip tion for Publicity.

March Colds and Chills Bring Kidney Ills February, March and April are the back ache months, because they are the months of colds, chills, grip and pneumonia, with their congesting and weakening effect upon the kidnej's. Colds, grip and chills strain the kidneys and start bachache, urinary dis orders and uric acid troubles. . You feel lame, weak and'tired and have backache, headache, dizzy feelings, achy muscles and joints besides too frequent, scanty or painful urin ary passages, sediment in the urine, etc. Nearly every case of grip leaves the kidneys weak. And it is a good thing to use preven tion, for by keeping the kidneys well you can avoid colds and grip. The kidneys filter the blood and so help to pass off the waste matters of cold-congestion. I)oans Kidney Pills are very useful in the raw months of Winter and Spring. They cure backache and urinary disorders, keep the kidneys well and prevent other colds from settling on the kidneys. After grip, they act as a fine tonic Home testimony proves it. "What better evidence could one ask! Opposite are statements of your own townspeople.

Young, 213 13th st., Portland, Or., says: "Occa sionally, when I caught cold, it settled in my kidneys and caused my back to ache. Some time ago I had an acute attack of -this kind and there were other difficulties in evidence which plainly showed that my kidneys needed toning up. FTaving Doan's Kidney Pills brought to nry attention, I be gan their use and to say that I was surprised by their promptness in relieving me'.-i putting the fact mildly. I am extremely grateful for what this remedy did for me." Mrs. A. E. Fulton, 311 Skid more st., Portland, Or., says: "I swear by Doan's Kidney Pills for they cured me of dropsy. My limbs swelled something terrible from my feet to my knees . and I had puffy spots under my eyes. My kidneys were disordered and the kidney secretions became unnatural. I doctored and tried several remedies but did not seem to receive relief. At last a friend advised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills and I got a supply. After using the first box the bloating subsided and the contents of three boxes en tirely cured me. Since then I have had no difficulty and am now enjoying good health." More Portland Testimony Proof That You Can Verify Phillip J. Henneman, 538 Ne halem st., Sellwood, Portland, Or., says: "For some time I was afflicted with kidney trouble. I am positive that my complaint was caused by get ting, my feet wet. My kidneys were weak and the kidney se cretions became profuse and too frequent in passage. I was also bothered greatly by back ache. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills advertised for such troubles, I procured a supply and began their use. This remedy lived up to all the claims made for it, soon en tirely relieving me of kidney complaint. I can recommend Doan's Kidney, Pills highly." George K. Parrish, 33V2 Grand ave., East Portland, Or., says: "The first symptom of kidney complaint in my case was a dull pain across my loins. I paid little attention to this trouble at first, but as it gradually grew worse, I knew that something must be done. Whenever I caught cold, I was sure to have an acute attack of backache and I felt miserable in every way. One evening when looking over the paper, I read a convincing statement regarding Doan's Kidney Pills and I was led to get this remedy. The results of its use were gratifying and it was not long before my trouble was removed. ' ' DOAN'S KIDNE Y PELI W THE SUH IS THESt Mtsacrvtxw wcnto Sold by all dealers 50c a box.
