Yesterday afternoon word came from

that four men whohad beensecnplaylng
cards in the vicinity Of the recent high
way robbcries out the pike, on the day
they occurred, were at the park. Chief
Bennett at once dispatched Lieutenant
Clemana to the scene and sent with
him Mr.. John Brill one OF the victims
OF the robbery. When tho officer ar
rived, he found that the quartette had
flown, and that nobody seemed to know
which way they went. II Ia not likely
however. that they were the men want
ed, for they would scarcely remain near
Tine scene OF their crime.

sy or surgical diseases and injuries within
the organs themselves Anything that
tends to disturb the circulation and put
extra work upon these organs is potent
factor In producing kidney disease. The
EARLIEST SYMPTOMS of kidney trouble
alone will explain how diseases of the kid
neys can go on without a suspicion on the
part Of the victim, until the later symp-
toms appear, and then it is almost too
late for help. The urine Is at first light in
color for a day or So then 1t changes to a
dark color and this variation in color goes
on.. The door may be spicy or fragrant,
and again 1t may be like ammonia. A de-
posit of brick dust may occur In the dark
urine and white cloudy deposit may ap-
pear in the lighter urine. The quantity
will vary, being less when the urine Is dark
and greater when the urine is pale in color.
Sometimes a brck-dust sediment will fall
to the bottom after the urine has stood
awhile. Again the deposit may be thick,
white and ropy.
These deposits indicate beginning dis

The Microscope
Stands alone as the great detective in
kidney diseases. BY the aid of this wonder
full instrument a physician skilled In its
use can detect the earliest signs of kidney
disease. The deposits in the urine are

To properly understand the functions OF
the kidneys We will call them the outlets
or gateways of a great drainage or sew
erage system. You must not confound this
system of drainage with that of the bow
els, which Is DEVOTED to the carrying away
OF an entirely different class of products.
The kidneys are the sewers OF the blood.
The great circulating system. with Its
enormous impurities and taints. must de-
pend entirely on the kidneys to carry Off
these poisonous products. Understanding
this It will not be hard TO appreciate their
vast Importance In the perpetual mainten-
ance of health.
Strange Little Organs
Are these kidneys, placed on each side Of
the spinal column, just below the ribs be-
hind. Hidden away. as 1t were. by nature
where no injury could befall them They
are bean-shaped, about as large as the
palm of your hand, and at the notch In the
Inner edge the great arteries. veins and
ncrves enter. Here, too, the waters come
out from the kidney, loaded with impur-
tiles and sewage to be carried to the blad-
der and then out OF the body The structure
or tine kidney is a series OF tubes, witt: X,
tie blood vessels about them. from which
the impurities in the blood filter into these
tubes and are thus carried into the main
sewer.
Think of the enormous work put upon
