A CUT THREATENED.
Railroad Men Expect a Reduction ON the

Omaha. March eat is common report
I'm railroad circles that the joint meet
ing at North Platte OF all the railroad
brotherhoods. held during the week. was
for the purpose of considering means of
combating a possible reduction of wages
on the Union Pacific. None of the broth
erhood chiefs who attended the meeting
will discue the matter, nor can any mint
be had at Union Pacific headquarters OF
any contemplated wage reduction. How
ever the men I'm the employ of the com
pany are very apprehensive. IL Is feared
that the well-defned policy of retrench-
ment tina President Burt Is following
must sooner or later reach the wages OF
the men who run the trains. whose wage
schedule IL now somewhat higher than
that I'm effect on the Burlington system.
and IL Is generally understood among the
men that any such reduction will be re-
sisted. A general reduction of wages on

BECAUSE OF the ntlp tnese iuineS give
us and we should live longer and be
happier.
And we do IL we are wise.
Think, for example. of the wonderful
Roentgen X Rays. Why, they easily
show things that were once hidden
from all view. You can now see the
contents of a trunk or a desk from the
outside. although you cannot see
people are thinking about. But you
can pretty nearly, for these remarkable
X-rays will easily show o many of
your internal organs and how they are
working! And this is very fortunate,
for in the case of the two most import
ant organs of the body II is the only
absolutely certain way that any trouble
with them can be detected.
You may live for years n think you
are in good health and yet all the time
those great organs of the body, your
kidneys. may be slowly rotting away.

disordered kidneys. Paleness, putting
under the eyes. pains in the back, col
ored or brick-dust urine. chilliness and
feverishness are pretty certain to indi-
cate that you are on the road to
Bright's disease. And you may not
realize IL.
Why?
Because kidney diseases are the most
mysterious of all known troubles. and
they are the hardest of all things to
detect.
II you were asked to put your hand
directly over the kidneys. would you
know just where to place IL?
Few people would.
The fact is that the kidneys have few
symptoms of their own, but possess
nearly all the symptoms known to
suffering humanity. "All roads lead to
Rome and it is equally true that the
cause of nearly every physical trouble
can be traced to one source, namely,
the kidneys. AS a great physician once
