RRIGhTS DISEASE.
Something OF Interest About Com
mon Complaint.


This is often classed among the dis
eases of modern life" and probably is
really of more common occurrence now
than it was in the early years Of our
century, when railways and steamships
and 1elegraphs were not, for II is the
rush and the worry of life, which these
things typify and aid, that predispose
powerfully to the disease.
The term Bright's disease is loosely
applied to any chronic, or even acute,
disease of the kidneys, but we usually
mean, when speaking OF it, very slow
har 11ning and shrinking of the kid
neys, whereby these organs are rem
dered incapable of performing theiI
important function.
The kidneys are two in number and
lie one on each side Of the spina col
umn, extending from about the level
oe the last rib downward for four OF
five inches Their Office is TO separate
some OF the waste materials from the
blood, aud 10 provide for their removal
from the body dissolved in water The
substances so got rid of are, many OF
them, exceedingly poisonous, and i
is to their retention in the system that
most Of the danger OF kidney disease i
due.
These symptoms OF Bri9ht's disease in
its early stages are very slight, and such
as they are are often mistaken for the
sign of simple indigestion; but much
more frequently symptoms of indiges-
ton, slight rheumatic pains in the loiu-
and other minor ills are regarded by
nervous people as indicative Of kidney
disease. Almost everybody saffcrs at
times from more or less backachc, head
ache. dizziness. Indigestion, perhaps
blurring of the eyes, and even q little
swelling of the feet toward evening.
but very few such persons have any
trouble with the kidneys.
a man who suffers persistently from
these symptoms would be wise to con-
suit a physician, but he would he very
foolish to make his own diagnosis from
insufficient data, aud then worry him
self into an illness. Even physician
cannot make a positive diagnosis Of
Bright's disease without a thorough
chemical and microscopical examina-
ton.
The treatment of Bright's disease be-
longs entirely TO the physician. The
malady is a serious one, and any at
tempt of the patient himself 10 treat
it with patent medicines or decoctions
Of his own is little less than suicidal

Y. NJ. C. A. CONTEST.
The Three Teams Will Commence
Tuesday to Make an Effort to
Secure the Largest Number OF
Members.

The Y. M. C. A. membership contest
commences Tuesday. The captains or
the three teams, the Reds, Whites and
Blues, will meet tomorrow night TO
complete the lists Of their teams. This
contest, as mentioned only in the Reg
lister yesterday, will continue one month
and the winning team will be banquet
ted at the conclusion. The contest last
winter resulted in an addition OF 290
new members Owing to the present
contest commencing so early the num-
Der is not expected to be as large yet
the teams will exert every effort to
bring in many new members. The con-
test will be finished in time for the
new members to enter the regular even
ing classes and get the benefit OF the
instruction provided during the vim
ter. The contest promises to be inter-
esting and exciting.
A pleasant feature this winter at the
Y. M. c. A. will be the monthly enter
tainment, which will be given for the
benefit of the members and their
friends These entertainments will be
furnished by home talent and when
given a couple of years ago were very
popular.
