If the kidneys are healthy they will
excrete the poison from the blood. The
renal veins return the purified blood
from the kidneys TO the general cir
culation.
Pernna stimulates the kidneys to ex.
crete from the blood the accumulating
poison, and thus prevents the convul-
sions which are sure to follow if the
poisons are allowed to remain. IT gives
great vigor to the hearts action and
digestive system, both Of which are apt

Death ufEx-prssid eat Harrison

Ex-President Benjamin Harrison died
at his home in indianapolis, Ind, Wed
nesday evening.
Benjamin Harrison was the twenty
third President of the United States.
He was born in Ohio in 1888.
He was a grandson of William Henry
Harrison, ninth President of the
United States and a great grand
son OF Benjamin Harrison, signer Of the
Declaration of Independence. He mar
ried Caroline Scott, when he was p. He
studied law and was admitted to the
bar in 1853. He moved to Indianapolis
in 1854 and was elected reporter OF the
Supreme Court in 1860. In 1862 he en-
listed in the 10th Indiana regiment and
finally became it's Colonel. Later he was
made a Brigadier General. In 1876 he
was nominated by the republicans for
governor and was defeated. In 1879 he
was appointed a member of the Mississip-
nj River Commission. Two years later
he was elected u. s. Senator from In
diana. In 1887 he was defeated for a
second term, a Democratic Legislature
eIecting Turpie In 1888 he was elected
President, defeating Cleveland. Harrison
was renominated for the presidency at
Minneapolis, in 1892, and was defeated
by Cleveland. Harrison returned to In
dianapolis after the inauguration OF Cleve-
land. His most important work since
leaving the presidency was the fenezue-
Ian arbitration ease in which he repre-
sented Venezuela at Paris. Harrison's
first wife died shortly before the election
of 1892. Four years later he married
Mrs. Mary Scott Lord Dimmick, who
with an infant daughter survives him.
His children by his first wife, are ICol.
Russell b. Harrison and Mrs. Mary .Har-
ris0n Mckee.
Gen. Harrison's wealth is estimated
as high as 100000. Those who are
best informed say he was worth about
$3.50, 900 or $500, 900. At the time hewas
elected President he wasreputed to have
accumulated fortune of 1926, 900 from
law practice and this has been doubled
since that time. OF late his practice,
owing to his great reputation as con-
stitutional lawyer, was very lucrative.
His fee in Venezuelan boundary dispute,
in which herepresented the South Ameri-
can Republic, was 100000.
Thefuneral viii take place Sunday after
noon. The services will be held in the
First Presbyterian church, OF which Gen,
Harrison has been a member for nearly
fifty years. President Mckinley will at
tend the funeral.
