Yourself of the Weariness and
Pain Attending II.

Some people suffer with headaches. many
many more people have lame back aud back

Of their aches, aud fewer yet know how easily
they can lnd cure. Just word Of explana-

tches, that's sign that the kidneys are not
working properly it is lame, another sign,
the kidneys are out of order The kidneys
you know, are the filters of the blood, but
filters sometimes get clogged up. This means
in their case that the blood courses through
the entire system impreginated with poisonous
uric acid bringing on many a disorder which,
if neglected means disease, perhaps incurable.
And now about the cure. Don't take our
word for it, read what people say here in
Shenandoah
Mr. George Cox, corner of Juneberry
alley and Gilbert street, miner, says. "l

This means that the capacity Of the boiler,

Women Should Know 1t.

Many women suffer untoiI agony and
misery because the nature Of their disease is
not correctly understood. They have been
led to believe that womb trouble or female
weakness Of some sort is responsible for the
many ills that beset womankiud
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy
or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism, a
dragging pain or duh achs in the back, weak
ness or bearing down sensation, profuse OF
scanty supply of urine with strong odor,
frequent desire to pass it with scalding OF
burning sensation, sediment in it after stand
ing in bottle or common glass for twenty -ioul
hours, are signs of kidney and bladder troub e,
The above symptoms are often attributed
by the patient herself or by her physician tc
female weakness or womb trouble. Hence, SC
many fail to obtain relief, because they are
treating, not the disease itself, but reflection
of the primary cause which is kidney trouble.
In fact women as well as men are made
miserable with kidney and bladder trouble
and both need the same remedy.
DIR. Kimer's swamp Root is the great dis
coyery Of the eminent kidney and bladder
specialist and is easy to get at any drug stor'
for fifty cents or one dollar.

TIE SAP oE Trees.
Contrary 60 the Popular Relief, IL
Never Descends.

Probably nearly nine out Of every ten
believe that sap asccnds in the spring and
returns I'm the fall Although l have
never been able TO find anything to the
contrary i'm any book | have ever seen, l
know from long and careful observation
that this is not So The sap never descends.
1t fulillls its Office in causing the growth
Of the leaves and adding another to the
rings which indicate the annual growth of
the tree. So soon as the leaves fall the
sap begins to reasccnd. This can be proved
in various ways. Any farmer who has
cut pile of hard wood i'm November has
noticed the sap flies gathering around the
ends of the sticks on warm days. They
are attracted by the sap, which can be
seen issuing from the ends of the sticks,
which sap had already begun to ascend be-
fore the sticks were cut.
Any hunter who has set a line of log
traps for sable has noticed the sap flowing
from maple sticks in warm days in No
vember Partridges begin to bud i'm No
vember and find something besides dry
twigs or they would not bud. But still
more convincing proof is that in some
warm falls I have known maple sirup to
be made and sold In quantities OF several
gallons at time. Pussy willows, where
growing i'm wet places, often bloom in
warm November and December. One can
see that the buds on the horse chestnuts
are swelling in January. The sap which
is proved to be present in all these cases is
not the sap which went up in the spring
descending, but new sap which is going
up.
No one ever speaks of the sap in a corn
stalk going down in the fall 1t has fed
the leaves and matured the corn, and its
work ended there. So in the tree each
year the sap has finished its work when
the leaves have matured and a new crop
of sap at once begins to take its place. OF
course this sap cannot ascend when the
wood is frozen but whenever the wood is
thawed it keeps ascending.
Another error is that trees in growing
| carry their branches up with them as they
] grow, or, to make it palmer, that "A limt
which is five feet from the ground will in
/ time be ten feet. The fact is that limbs
grow as much lower on the lower side at
| they do higher on the upper side and nc
more A limb which is an inch in di
ameter, if it grows to be three inches, will
be an inch farther from the ground or
the upper side and an inch nearer on the
under side The forks or crotches in trees
often get to be considerably higher from
the two branches which form it growing
together as they increase in size. The toI

THE DEATH OF PRINCE ALFRED.
Not Relative with Queen Victoria's
Grandson When the End Came.


Grandson When the End Came.
London. Feb. 9.-The Morning Leader
publishes the following dispatch from
Meran in the Austrian Tyrol:
Nothing could be sadder than the
circumstances attending the death Of
Prince Alfred of Saxe-Coburg in this
lonely spot, left alone by his friends
and surrounded by strange faces. There
is a certain mystery enveloping the
whole affair.
When he arrived the young prince
was already deranged and dying. He
was accompanied by only a single
doctor He was so weak that he could
not stand. At times he was unable to
convey his food to his mouth. He
raved in his delirium of his childhood,
relatives and comrades, and had fire.
quent fits of violence, during which he
suffered agony and would cry like a
child, begging his father and mother
in heartrending terms to save him from
the awful pains in his head. Toward
the end these pains increased, causing
frightful scenes. He died in delirium,
alone with the two doctors entrusted
with the case.
1t seems strange that no relatives or
friends were summoned to the death
bed. The proprietor of the sanitarium
declined to state the cause of death,
and the registrar at the town hall said
the death certificate was under lock
and key. and would be shown to no
body.
