KIDNEY CURE.

There Is no disease so insinuat-
ing, Sd slow but sure, as kidney dis
ease, or so widespread. The symp-
toms are so slight as TO generally
escape notice.
The first indications appear in
the urine, with varied effects. The
quantity may be increased or de-
creased; it is likely to be highly col
ored and scalding; it may be pale
or thin, or thick and milky with a
sediment. Later on more pro-
nounced symptoms will be present,
such as dizziness, bloating, etI
with marked bladder and urinary
disorders.
Poisonous waste matter is collected
by the blood from all parts OF the sys-
TEN and carried to the kidneys, where
II is separated and cast out through the
urine. The kidneys deal with the blood
only, deriving nourishment there
from. Hence, IL the blood is bad the
kidneys are not only overwoTked, bu.
underfed. How necessary is 1t, there
fore, that the purity and vitality OF the
blood should be maintain Ell. II is plain
why The great blood purifier and
strengthener DIR. HaTter Is Iron Tonic
has been successfully used in treating
kidney diseases and in preventing same.
In purifying the blood the kidneys are
greatly relieved, while, at the same Time,
new strength and vitality are given
these organs. The following letter tells
a very old story:
PINE KNOT KY, June %, 1902.
The DR.. Hdyter Medicine Co., Dayton, o.
GENrLEMEN: 1 had a severe case of
typhoid fever six years ago, which left
my kidneys in bad order. / have tried
number of remedies and taken treat
ment from doctors, but Dr. Harters Iron
Tonic has done me more good than
everything else. &. CoRDELL,
Merchant and Mine Operator.
There are tho usands of just such
cases as the above that are treated
without results because they are
wrongly treated. Mr. COrdel's
condition resulted from an exhaust
ing fever; the kidneys, as we'll as
the rest of the system, had been
wasted by disease. No wonder DR..
Harter'sIrOn Tonic prOmptlycured,
because it purified and enriched the
blood, and such blood carried new
strength and vitality directly to the
kidneys and to all the organs.

The Outlook For Trust LEGISLATION

1t is a safe prediction that there
will be no legislation against trusts
at this session of congress, notwith-
standing the fact that the president
is extremely anxious that there shall
be. 1t is stated that he is urging
the most influential of the senators
of his party to take hold of the sub
ject and bring it to the attention
of the senate at the earliest possible
moment.
There is no doubt, of course, that
the house will act promptly if as
surances are forthcoming that the
senate will pass an antitrust bill or
make such amendments to the
Sherman antitrust law as will en-
able the government to reach trusts.
In fact, it is the understanding that
the house is rather anxious to show
that the Republican party is against
trusts-at least to the extent that
the president is against them
There is no probability, however,
as far as can now be ascertained,
that the senate will do anything.
Some of the leading Republican
take the position that the
country is enjoying a period of
great prosperity, and that an attack
on trusts would do as much harm
in the way of checking prosperity
as an attack on the protective prin-
ciple of the tariff. Others of them
say that it is the better plan to let
we'll enough alone, and still others
that nothing can be done
in the direction of supervising or
controlling them unless the cOnsti-
tuition is so amended as to give con-
gress greater authority in the mat
ter.
In an editorial commenting on
this subject the Savannah News
of recent date concludes as follows:
We shall hear a great deal about
legislating against trusts along the
line marked out by the president
during this winter, but it can be
stated with certainty that there will
be no anti trust legislation. The

the meantime trusts are being or
ganized right along, and by the
time a congress that will act,gainst
them has been chosen the business
of the entire country will be in the
hands of trusts. Then it will be-
argued probably that any inter

The Auxiliary Yacht.

The following has been culled
from an article appearing in the
Especial Transportation" number
of the Scientific American:
"YOur true sailorman, with his
Unborn love of the sea, always looks
askance at yacht that depends
for its motive power upon anything
more than well-trimmed sails and
natures own motive power, the
wind. To him it is the very fick,
leness of the breezes, the uncer.
tainty of the tides. currents and
various elements that 60 to render
navigation difficult, that consti-
tutes half of the charm of yacht
ing, for is it not in the careful OBJ
servation of these, and in the
accumulated experience of many
seasons cruising in foul weather
and fair, that he develops that
confidence, resOurcefulness, fore
thought and presence Of mind that
go to make up the successful
yachtsman? On the other hand,
in this busy, workaday, age, when
we are in such a hurry to accumu-
late our store, big or little, as the
case may be, of this worlds wealth,
we have come to begrudge even the
Iall-too-b brief hours that we give to
recreationi and the long delays
which are inevitable on a sailing
yacht through failing winds, or
foul tides, have led to the expert
ment of introducing a limited
amount of steam or other mechan-
ical motive power on sailing yachts.
The great convenience of being
able to continue on ones course in
calm weather at from one-half to
twO-thirds the ships sailing speed,
or of being able at the close of a
days sailing to enter a crowded
harbor and come to ones mOOring,
with canvas all stored and every
thing made snug before the moor
ing is picked up has appealed so
strongly to large number of
yachtsmen, that the auxiliary sail
ing vessel is becoming increasingly
popular. The auxiliary power va
ries from the small gasoline engine
of the knOckabOut to the large
steam engine of the big cruising
schooner,
zone of the most difficult prob
lens to solve in a vessel of this
type is that of reducing the resist
ancc offered by the propeller,
owing to its drag upon the water
when the vessel is under sail alone.

iiculty is so constructed a. To en-
able the angle of the blades of a
propeller to be altered, while they
are in place under water, to the
pitch most suitable for working

the vessel is under sail and the
steam power is not in Use"

Competing Company Will Get Its Supply From
Churchill County.

The organization of a company,
which, it is claimed, intends to drive
the salt trust out of business, is receiv-
ing considerable attention in the San
Francisco papers just now. The big
Eastern packers, among them Swift &
Co. and Cudahy, are said to b. behind
the movement for the overthrow of the
ALT trust.
The new organization, which is
known rs the Independent Salt Com
pany, is TO get its supply from Churchill
county, this State, a region as salty as
the sea itself. No salt has been taken
from the beds of the new company for
forty years and some of the salt on the
surface has been there for more years
than the Oldest inhabitant can COM
pute. There are eleven thousand acres
of land in the possession of the COM
pany, and the Central Pacific railroad
is only seven miles away. A traction
engine may be used to bring off the
80 iAitCiitG Dat q "a oAASA 10
soon to be built.
The new company claims to have
enough salt in sight to supply the world
for five years. 1t will do business
throughout the United States.
Among the predictions made are that
the price of common salt will be ham,
mered down from SIS to the old figure Of
81 or IS. 1t is also said hat the fin
est of sifted salt now sold in tins at a
rate that foots up $40 a ton when it
reaches the jobber will be said for $35
a ton. The Nevada salt, according to
an analysis by Professor Price of San
Francisco, is 1919 per cent pure. This.
1t is said, will drive the English and
German salt out of the market.

Fined for Shooting a Greek.

In Austin last week NJ. Shea pleaded
guilty to shooting George Clouse and
was entenced to pay a fine of s166 or
serve eightv-three days in Jail. The
shooting 1t will be recollected, occur
red about two months ago and was the
result of a quarrel between Shea, the
foreman of a gang of Greek railroad la
borers, and a railroad engineer. Shea
took a shot at the latter, but missed
him, the bullet striking Clouse, one of
the Greek laborers. The shooter came
near being mobbed by the mans in
furiated companions. BY some varia-
ton of Lander county justice, Shea was
permitted to plead guilty to a INSIDE
meanor and got off with a fine. Per-
haps in thai county 1t is not consid-
cred a serious offense to attempt to
Kill a Greek. If so, there are many who
would consider it a good thing if the
Lander county criminal code were made
operative in all the counties through
which the railroad runs.
