Kidney Troubles.

The kidneys cleanse the blood
and on their activity depends the
health OF the body. II the liver
becomes SO torpid that it IN
terferes with the work of the kid
neys the body suffers and dropsy
results. The most valuable feature
ot the curative effect OF Prickly
Ash Bitters is its stimulating in
fluences on the kidneys. 1t heals
and strengthens those organs so
that they resume their blood cleans
ing and urine gathering functions,
purihes and regulates the liver,
tones the stomach and digestion,
ana by mild yet thorough cathaI :
tic effect, all poisons and bilious
impurities in the bowels are driven
out. II quickly restores strength
and health.

THE CARTER GOVERNMENTAL

Savannah. Ca, Feb. 5.-Thc defense
in the trial by court martial of Captain
O. w. Carter, United States Army, had
an opportunity today to get some docu-
mentary evidence in favor Of the ac-
cIsed and promptly accepted it. Today
it was shown by the documentary evil
dence found in Capt. Carriers office that
Lieutenant Colonel A. A. Gilmore, in
1892 and 1893, advertised for periods of
only fifteen or twenty days.
This seems to knock out the point
made by the prosecution that Captain
Carter advertised less than thirty DAVIS
for the purpose. of aiding in shutting ont
other contractors than the Atlantic
Contracting Company. 1t was also
shown that former officers had sent out
only one copy Of specifications to con
tractors. which was the rule followed by
Captain Carter. The court adjourned
until Tuesday at II O'clock.
