price was soon run up to $40, and it was

the pitcher discovered that the prize
was made of common pewter and was
worth about 81.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin

If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

Wheat is all about cut and

Look over the history of this
country and see what prominent

in any profession and see if they
owe their present prosperous po-

not to be found. The wealthy

Rain! Rain!l Trash moving
rains have been falling in this Sec
ton the past week. which has re-
tarded farm work very much.
Wheat harvest came on in the wet
spell and much of the grain was
cut while et,and I fear it will be
damaged, but the threshing men
are helping the farmers out of the
trouble by threshing the grain out
of the wet straw. We can hear
the engine whistle and the separa-
tor hum in every direction. By
the way Mr.. Jim Goggins has fit
ted himself up with a new outfit
for the business and can separate
wheat from the straw in quick
time and in sgood order. Give
him a trial and let him prove
