REGARDLESS OF AGE,

The kidneys are responsible for
more sickness, suffering, and deaths
than any other organs of the body.
A majority of the ills affecting
people of to day is traceable to kidney
trouble. 1t pervades all classes of
society, in all climates, regardless of
age, sex or condition.
The symptoms of kidney trouble
are unmistakable, such as rheum atlsm,
neuralgia, sleeplessness, pain or dull
ache in the back, desire to urinate
often day or night, profuse or scanty
supply.
Uric acid, or brick dust deposit in
urine are signs of clogged kidneys,
causing poisoned and germ-filled blood,
Sometimes the heart acts badly, and
tube casts (wasting of the kidneys) are
found in the urine, which if neglected
will result in Bright's Disease the mos,
dangerous form of kidney trouble.
All these symptoms and condition:
are promptly removed under the inhu
ence of DR.. Kllmers Swamp Root
1t has world wide reputation for it:
wonderful cures of the most distress
ing cases.

General Gordon's Lecture.

The announcement that Gen. ]. b.
Gordon would lecture in the Normal
Auditorium last Saturday evening fill
ed the hall with people. None came
away disappointed. His lecture was
entertaining, instructive, amusing,
pathetic, and patriotic.
The stage was set with large flag
as a back ground, and when Gen. Cor
don and DR.. Welsh entered and took
their seats, a chorus of students sang
"Tenting tonight on the old Camp
Ground" with very pretty effect. In
introducing the lecturer DR.. Welsh said
that there was time when it would
not have been safe for any one to in.
troduce Confederate General to a
Bloomsbury audience, but that time
was many years ago. Gen. Gordon
was greeted with hearty applause, and
all through his lecture there was con-
tinued marks of appreciation. What
he said we shall not attempt to tell
for he talked over two hours, though
it did not seem half so long.
Many old soldiers were present, and
at the close of the lecture, after the
audience arose and sang "Amerca"
they went up on the stage and shook
hands with him, as did many Others
OF the audience. c. II. Campbell in
formed us that he was present IN most
of the battles to which Gen. Gordon
alluded.
Gen. Gordon is a prominent man
in American history. He is, with one
exception, the sole survivor who held
high rank in either army at the clos
ing scenes at Appomattox. He has
been Governor of Georgia several
times, and twice in the U. S. Senate
from that state. AS an orator he
ranks high, and the people of Blooms
burg are indebted to the Students
Lecture Course for giving them an
opportunity to hear so distinguished a
man.

United States, Mr. Gwinn enlisted in
the First Regiment Of indiana under
Capt. II. II. Milroy, who died few
years ago at Olympia, Washington. The
regiment moved from Burlington to
indianapolis where the companies
elected az their colonel, James NJ.
Drake, who attained notoriety .as a
fighter.
The regiment under Zack Taylor was
soon after stationed at the mouth OF the
Rio Grande to guard supplies, where it
remained three months or more during
the rainy season.
In 1916 there were no railroads in the
country and other ways OF transporta-

other people of their liberty.
