WHO Is TO BLAME.

Kidney trouble has become so prev
alent that it is not uncommon for a
child to be born afflicted with weak kid
neys.
If the child urinates too often, if the
urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the
child reaches an age when it should be
able to control the passage, and it is yet
afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon
it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney
trouble, and the first step should be to-
ward the treatment of these important
organs. This unpleasant trouble is due
to diseased condition of the kidneys
and bladder and not to a habit as most
people suppose.
If the adult has rheumatism; pain or
passes in irregular quantities; or at ir-
regular intervals or has a bad odor; if
it stains the linen or vessel the color of
rust; II the feet swell; if there are puffy
or dark circles under the eyes; your
kidneys are the cause and need doctor
ing. Treatment of some diseases may
be delayed without danger, not so with
kidney disease.

FUNSTON LED.
Intrenched Insurgents Dispersed In
Short Order-Twenty Amer
leans Hurt.

Manila, May "a, p. m.-Cenerals
Macarthur and Funston, with the Kan
sas and Montana regiments and the
Utah battery, have dispersed 800 in
surgents who were intrenched on the
railroad beyond San Fernando, near
Santa Aria.
The American scouts were fred upon
from the trenches unexpectedly and
withdrew. Their firing was heard at
San Fernando, and General Macarthur
assembled his troops and marched
quickly after the scouts. The Montana
regiment fanked the trenches on the
left and the Kansas regiment attacked
the ememy's right flank, General Fun
ston leading the charge at the double
quick.
The insurgent loss was large, many
prisoners were captured, and it is re-
ported that twenty Americans were
wounded.

THE SCIOTO nARSH.

The Findlay Republican contains
long and circumstantial account of the
operations of Henry Price as an onion
grower on the Scioto marsh. There isnO
news to Hardin county people who are
familiar with Mr.. Prices extensive OPP
erations, but it is well to call attention
occasionally to the most important in
dustry of the county. Mr.. Price raises
and ships 30, 900 to IS, 900 bushels OF on
ions per year, raised on an acreage Of
13O to 100 acres. The crop runs from
400 to 800 bushels per acre. Mr.. Stam-
baugh, at the writer's request, estimat-
ed the average this year at 1900. Esti-
mated at 400 bushels to the acre and 500
bushels to the car, this means that 1040
cars of these odorous vegetables will be
taken from the marsh this year. At
twenty-five cents per bushel the sum
total is $780, 600 distributed among the
growers and laborers on the marsh.
These figures are low. The fact is, as
we are advised, the shipment of onions
will be nearer 1900 cars than 1040 as
above given. And the price, 25 cents
per bushel, is lower than the parties
directly interested expect will prevail.
But onions are by no means the only
crop raised. Potatoes are standard
crop. The average will not be as heavy
this year as in former years, but it Is
quite usual for shipments to be as heavy
as those of onions. Then when we take
into account the cabbage, corn, parsnips,
celery, and other vegetables raised, the
figures we have given for onions may be
equaled or more than equaled by other
products. The Scioto marsh is all right.
1t is not as well understood in Hardin
county as it ought to be. With intel
ligent management, for marsh farming
is business unlike other farming, and
requires capital the same as other kinds
of business, there is no reason why it
should not produce double or treble the
quantities of vegetables now grown
there.-Kenton Press.

PIONEER MEETING.

The Logan county pioneer meeting
was success Thursday SO far as piO-
neers at the meeting were concerned.
Unfortunately there had been no COM
mittee appointed to distribute the visi-
tors to places for dinner, and we were
informed that couple went two miles
in the country for grub; two more coup
les returned home for dinner; one lady
had prepared dinner for six and only
one came. There were places for all,
had committee been there to have
directed them where togo.
Huntsville people have always borne
good reputation as entertainers, and
do not like to be accused of giving
these juvenile pioneers the cold
shoulder. Boys, be sure hereafter of
your committee on arrangements prior
to the meetings. 1t was at Huntsville
as in most all places of meetings,
more people attend in the afternoon
than in the morning, and do not stay
from forenoon meeting for purpose of
not feeding pioneers. Hereafter look
well 10 your committees.
Six new members were added to the
pioneers at their meeting here.

CHERRIES.

Under the tree the farmer said,
Smiling and shaking his wise old head;
Cherries are ripe! but then, you know,
There's the grass to cut and the corn to hoe;
We can gather the cherries any day,
But when the sun shines we must make our
hay;
Tonight, when the work has all been done,
Well muster the boys, for fruit and fun"
Upon the tree a robin said,
Perking and cooking his saucy head:
Cherries are ripe! and so to-day
Wen gather them while you make the hay;
For we are the boys with no corn to hoe,
No cows to milk, and no grass to mow.''
At night the farmer said: 'Heres a trick !!
These roguish robins have had their pick"

The Race Of the Age !

What race!
The train was Just pulling out of Engle-
wood, putting and painting with its mighty
efforts. AS it slowly gained speed it came
on a lot of tow headed children roosting on
a fence, who shouted and waved as the
cars came up, and then, as if with COM
mon impulse, every child leaped to the
ground and began a race with the train.
The race was of short duration. As the

Split Threatened Between the Players

last winter. has now broken out on the
surface. and number OF the most
prominent OF the class cracks will soon be
liable to disqualification unless the Union al
tiers its present attitude toward unregistered
tournaments given in billiard halls. Maurice
Daily has opposed A. A. L. control all along but
was willing to hold a registered tournament
last winter IL the players preferred it that way.
George Slosson. however. has started open
war against union control OF amateur billiards
by announcing a tournament for next month
and declaring that he will not apply for an A.
A. L. sanction. His will be a handicap meet
ing to begin on Nov -. three games being
