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
ming in kidney trouble.

Heat Warps Rails.

But for timely discovery the Bur-
lington passenger train which left
this city Tuesday afternoon at 3
O'Clock would have been thrown from
a trestle into slough half mile
this side of Bardow, says the Moline
Mail. The heat of the sun had warped
the rails so that they were sprung
out of line and the wheels could not
possibly have followed them. The
train was running slowly at the time
and was easily brought to staudstill
when tagged. The accident was most
peculiar. The sun beating down on
the track at this point had expanded
the steel rails until there was no long
er space at the Joints for their elonga-
ton and then they bowed out. Both
rails curved outward to the north a
foot, tearing out the spikes in some
places and the others moving the ties
and all out of line.
