kidney Trouble Cured.
An Ohio Chemist Discovers a Remedy that
Promises to End Terror of Bright's
Disease.

Dlstdscs
Since DIR. Richard Bright first described
Bright'S disease IN 1927, the medical world
has given more and more attention to the
study of the kidneys as a source of disease
and have demonstrat ed beyond doubt that
they are the direct cause of many of the
ills of mankind
Nineteenth century methods of living
arewell calculated to change the functions
of these delicate organs and few men to-
day can be absolutely certain that their
kidneys are in perfectly normal condl-'
ton. A tinge of pain IN the back is class
ed under the broad title of "cold," while
the dull ache that creeps through the
bones is blamed on the weather or allow
ed to pass UNDECIDED This in reality, is
natures way of sounding the first warn
ing that something is going wrong with
the internal mechanism and wise indeed
is the man who needs it.
Physicians have long been in dispute as
to the best means of treating disease OF
the kidneys. The best theories being so'
often upset by dire failure that itseemed
almost as though an infallible remedy
would never be discovered.
Among the most earnest workers in this
field has been John Morrow, and eminent
chemist of Springfield, Ohio. whose eXpe-
rience of nineteen years gave him ample
opportunity for studying kidney trouble
IN allits phases. The result of his research
u
he has prepared in yellow tablet FORM
under the name of KidneOids. While al
most entirely new to the medical world
Morrow's Kidneoids have produced such
marvellous results that there seems little
reason for doubling that he has discover
ed the remedy so long sought for by emf
nent physicians and that time worn ideas
as to the most efficient method of treating
the kidneys will soon be obsolete.
In our last issue we announced that one
of the largest drug concerns in the United
States was negotiating for the control of
Morrow s Kidneoids. We are now inform
ed by the discoverer of this most peculiar
remedy that the Herb Medicine Co... of
Springfield, Ohio. was the fortunate COM
petitor of the many firms who were en-
deavoring to secure the sole right to man
and sell Morrow's Kidneoids in
the United States. They are now on sale
If not to be had of your dealer they will
be send postpaid, 50cents per box, six box

painful if not serious accident
about 10 o'clock Friday morning.
He was at the Southern depot with
his driver looking after some freight
The two were on the delivery wagon
and started up to the store when the
front wheels of the wagon dropped in
a small gutter. Mr.. McCrary lost his
balance and fell between the shalves
under the animals feet.
The horse kicked several times, one
heel striking Mr.. McCray Just above
the right eye, infiicting a large and
ugly wound.
Mr.. McCrary's left side is also hurt,
but his physicians do not think any
ribs are broken. He was carried to
the office OF SmOak s. McCreary, where
Drs Dalton and Pfohl sewed up the
cash and attended to the other in
juries. Later DR.. Dalton carried him
in his buggy TO the home of his
parents in North Winston.

THAT MIsER's POT OF GOLD.
Was Baby's Bank and Contained
Only $1.S3.

Only $1.S3.
A report has been in circulation for
some time that Mr.. p. d. Price, of
Madison, made rich find on his farm
near Madison. The report had it that
it was miser's pot OF gold and con-
tained several thousand dollars.
A citizen OF Madison, who has had a
talk with Mr.. Price, was informed
that the" "half-gallon pot"was probably
"a child's rattler" and contained about
81 50 counting multilated three cent.
piece. There was a silver quarter
which was dated 1887. Mr.. Price saws
he thinks it was placed in the build
ing by child or servant.
The facts In the story are given as
follows: Mr.. Price purchased of Mr..
j. M. Vaughn, of Madison, his half
interest of the beautiful two-suory
dwelling which the late Pleasant Black
built for residence costing probably
twice the amount paid for it. Mr..
Pleasant (SOnney) Black occupied this
dwelling FOR many years until his
death in January, 1881. He was for
years engaged in general merchan-
disc business IN Madison, and at the
time of his death, under the firm name
of Black s. Price, whose trade was
such that six or eight employees were
necessary. The amount of the find
was estimated all the way from SI,S2
