THE KIDNEYS.

Many people realize that they are ailing
hom some cause or other, but neither they
nor their family physician can locate tho
disease nor loosen the deadly fangs of the
insatiate monster that has fastened upon
them. Such victims must succumb at no
distant day unless rescued by the help of
a skillful hand.
The whole system Is drained through
the Kidneys. The enormous quantity Of
impurities of the blood, including a vast
amount of poisonous matter must be car
ried off and drained through these organs
If they fail to fulfill their important fune-
tons, these deadly materials must remain
in and faint the blood, thus Fastening
death.

urine is dark and greater when the urine

Sometimes a brick-dust sediment will
fall to the bottom after the urine has stood

white and ropy. These deposits indicate
the beginning Of disease in the kidneys,
and should serve as a warning that help
is needed. The changing of color and
quantity of urine is another warning that
your kidney is wrong. Pain over the re-
gion Of the kidneys in the small of the
back, with duh. heavy pains extending
lower down in the back, are sure signs
of serious and weli-established kidney
trouble. The various organs of the body
begin to show evidences of the trouble in
the kidneys. The heart is overstrained
trying to push the blood through the
blocked and clogged kidneys. The blood
becomes loaded with impurities that il
cannot cast off in the natural way.
Microscopic examinations and chemical
analyses are the surest methods of de-
tecting in the urine signs of kidney trou-
be. BY this process there is no uncer-
tainty-no haphazard estimates. Each
cell and particle of the granules of the
deposit give up their secrets. The micro
scope owned and used by the Abbo Medi-
cal Institute is the most powerful and
costly ever brought to the South.

your kidneys before you have the condi-

gans examined, Thousands of people die
every years from kidney diseases and
never experience a pain. In fact, more
than half the kidney diseases are painless.
This does not mean, however, that dis
eased kidneys may not be painful. Some
diseases of this nature produce the most

experienced.

ton of weather, all necessary 70 ara IN

IN estimating the condition OF the present
crop to-day IN the three states at least 10
TO 20 per cent. more than last year.
The quantities Of fine grades cotton seed

Everything being exceptionally favorable
to the plant from now out and the usually
long gathering season which we have hao
for the past four or five years, and from
the replies TO our inquiries as to condltion
of the present crop as compared to the Dig
cent. in acreage and general condition, and
the fact that the counties in Georgia that
planted largely in sea island cotton In 1895
and discontinued same TO a large extent
for the past two years are reported as ma
terially increasing the acreage again this
season, we predict the sea island cotton
crop viii be fully 20 per cent. more than
last season.
on the other hand the crop has not been
for years in so favorable condition for dis
aster to overtake it. The greater part of
the crop is fully fifteen days late, placing
It susceptible to grass worm, boil worm
and caterpillar. Continued drought just
al this time viii absolutely kill the plant.
Too much rain would cause the plant to
rust and shed its forms or produce die
back or blight.
Unfavorabie picking season would mate
rally injure the staple. Early frosts play
havoc with the crop.
In Florida and Georgia the advance in
wages may induce many small planters to
practically abandon their crops to go at
others work, such as turpentining, phos-
phate mines, sawmills or railroads.
Either of the above causes would mate
