in all it's incidents and surroundings is a
memorable one. Other Pontiffs, indeed,
have shown a marvellous vitality, though
out of the total of 261 sixteen, only have
seen their eighty first year. His immedi-
ate predecessor, Plus TX, lived until he
was ninety years old, and alone of all the

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind

Kidney trouble has become so prevalent
that II is not uncommon for a child to be

age when 1t should be able TO control the
passage, and it is yet afflicted with bed

difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be toward the treatment Of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble Is due to a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit
