The enormous increase in the consump-

pie with disordered kidneys. this fact be-

report a constant increase IN the number
of patients afflicted with this trouble.
Many of the popular drinks of the day

oring matter, contain a sediment of a
highly deleteriOus character. This matter
lodgeS IN the kidneys, retardtng their ac-
ton and making it impossible for them
to filter the blood as nature intended
AS a result the blood is forced to carry
its impurities through the system over
and over again, until every function is
deranged and disease takes a hand.

edge to recognize the symptoms of dis

sallOw skin, continuous headache, loss of
flesh and the absence of ambition are
positive indications which no one should

Although physicians have long realized
the growing danger of kidney troubles
they seemed unable to provide an ade-

research succeeded in producing under
the name of MorrOw's Kidneoids,a remedy
that promises to upset all previous meth

Morris is about to take another step
in advance and keep pace with the
great wheels of prosperity. Hulburd

put in local telephone exchange and

a pretty good hold on our citizens,

nARKET REVIEW.
Late Reports directfr from the Chi
cago Board of Trade.

| Chicago, Jan. IA much stronger
lstock market in New York today
lgood trade conditions everywhere and
the price of wheat ready to advance
on the least symptom of buying, aug
ur well for the financial and industrial
condition of this country.
Wheat is particularly stubborn just
now in its resistance to the attacks of
the professional bears, who keep on
selling the May option in the face of
the fact that they may find great diff
ficulty in securing the grain to deliv-
er on their contracts. The situation
in this country is fairly growing more
favorable for the raisers of wheat, ac-
cording to the advices received by
Schwartz, Dupee q Co., while the
condition of affairs abroad, where the
same firm has numerous agents, is
daily shaping itself in favor of better
prices. The party here which bought
and paid for about 100000 bushels
of December wheat, refuses to sell
pound of it except at ten cents per
bushel above present quotations and
its members express the utmost con-
fdence in the future. The market
today was firm, and at the top price
of the day there was good buying.
In corn there is still dull and
sluggish feeling, but there is little
on the part of the holders
to sell at present figures. Provisions
continue strong in spite of liberal hog
receipts.

Emil Gull, of Goodhue county adj
vocates a plan which is new and
which he says he has demonstrated
to be practical, for keeping milk and
cream sweet and pure. "The keeping
of milk and cream" he says. "calls
for something else than the ordinary
milk tank. Water cannot also be
kept fresh for such reasons as lack of
wind to run the wind mill, etc. In
warm, sultry days the milk will sour
in spite of your cold water running
through the tank, and worse yet, lots
of farmers have neither water nor tank,
and the cellar will have to be used
for the purpose. | have been using
common cistern in which to hang
the cans, it being full of water, cans
hanging in the water low enough to
cover nearly all of them. The cistern
can be used winter and summer. The
tempature agrees with the weather.
Milk will keep sweet for three days or
more. By using this method I have
the credit of bringing the sweetest
and purest cream to the Goodhue
creamery. It looks like separator
cream, and the butter maker can sour
it to the desired point, and thus make
better butter"
