PERMANENT CURE.
Does Your Child Need Ite

There are thousands of children
who wet the bed almost nightly.
Sometimes they are scolded and some
times they are whipped, but the bed
wetting goes on just the same. You
think they are lazy and won't get up
but this is not the case once in
200 times. No child likes a wet
berth 10 lie in. They cant help it,.
Their kidneys are weak and should be
doctored. You are doing n great
wrong by neglecting your child. We
have the remedy that cures this. 1t
has been used here in Springfield by
Mrs. w. j. Guymore on Master Pert.
She saws: The child has had weak
kidneys since his birth. We have
tried TO have him cured, but never
found anything that would do It. 1t
was sure case each night until we
bought Morrow's Kid-ne-oids for him.
Since using them he has been cured
entirely. which is a great blessing for
both him and me. / can recommend
them to every mother in the land"
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are for sale
at all first-class drug stores for so
cents. and at Il. n. Dodds, druggist.

The city council at its session last
night passed an ordinance providing
for the bonding of the funds of the
waterworks department in the sum of
$50, 900 to complete the payment of
the cost of the construction of the
reservoir. The bonds are to bear 6
per cent interest, and are to he in
of 81, 900 and $500, "a
OF the former and Il of the latter.
The bids of the Sennott Construc-
ton company and Tropp, Darling &
Co for furnishing sand for the reser-
voir were rejected on Recommendation
of Mayor Medill, Engineer Harmon
and the waterworks committee. Tho
bids were considered exorbitant. The
mayor stated that he hopes to be able
in a few days to complete arrange
ments whereby the city could procure
this material at the river shore at 10
cents per cubic yard, and thereby
save for the municipality in the neigh
borhood of 81, 400.
Nothing was heard in relation to the
levee improvement for the reason
that the street and alley committee
has not as yet had n meeting on the
subject, but it hopes to soon, in order
that report can be submitted at che
next meeting of the council.
