IN FAVOR OF THE CENTAUk co.
Jndge Adams Granted nm Injunction
 in the Castoria Case

In the United States Circuit Court Tuesday afternoon Judge Adams hand ed down an opinion in the suit of the Centaur Company, of New York City, against Samuel ". Eslinger. of St Louis. the suit being for an injunction to restrain the defendant from using the plaintiffs remedy, "Castoria."
 It was stated in complainant's bill that the Centaur Company, of which Charles II. Fletcher is president, is the sole manufacturer of "Castoria." and alleged that the defendant had been selling medicine in packages closely re- sembling those of the New York firm A preliminary injunction was prayed for to restrain the defendants from in any way pirating upon the complain ants business. The bill averred that the damages sustained were large, but could not be estimated. The plea of the defendant was that he had right to do as he had done.
 Evidence in the ease was taken by af- fidayits. Judge Adams, without leav- ing the bench, delivered an opinion in which he denounced imitators of welt known medicines. He said the practice was a species of robbery and he would grant the injunction sought.
 The medicine "Castoria" was at first protected by patent and later by label and trade mark. The plaintiff claimed that other decisions similar to the one handed down yesterday have been se- cured in the Federal courts, cases being innumerable in Chicago. Indianapolis. District of Columbia. Texas and New Jersey, in all of which the courts grant ed injunctions.
 The attorneys in this suit were Sed- don and Blair of St. Louis, and F. H. Scott, of Chicago, for the complain ants and Michael Kineally for the de- fendant. The preliminary injunction is understood to settle the point of law involved, but the question of damages will be adjudged when the case has its final hearing.
 The bottles of the original "Castoria" :" manufactured by the Centaur Company bear the facsimile signature of the pres ident, Charles H. Fletcher, on the label, while the bottles sold by the defendant company bore on the label the words Pitchers Baby Gastoria" It is said that criminal proceedings will follow. and that several arrests may be made.

The way to be well is to pay attention

The way to be well is to pay attention to your kidneys.
 They are the most important organs of the body--the blood filters.
 All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes.
 The kidneys strain or filter out the impurities in the blood-that is their work.
 Purifying your blood is not d ques- tion of taking a laxative of physic.
 Does your blood run through your bowels?
 What the bowel-cleaner does is to throw out the poisons confined in your bowels ready for absorption into your blood, but the poisons which are al- ready in your blood. causing your pres ent sickness. it leaves there
 There is no other way of purifying your blood except by means of your kidneys.
 That is why bowel-cleaners fail to do their work-they fail to help the kid neys.
 When you are sick. then. no matter what you think the name of your dis ease is. the first thing you should do is to afford aid to your kidneys by using Dr. kiImer's Swamp-Root the great Kidney Remedy.
 In taking Swamp-Root you afford natural help to nature, for Swamp Root is the most perfect healer and gentle aid to the kidneys that is known to medical science.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Deafness Is caused by an inflamed condition of the mn. cous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube gets indamed you have rumblng sound or imperfect hearing, and when it k entirely closed deafness IS the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal con. dtIen, hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces
