KIDNEY CURE.

There Is no disease so insinuat-
ing, 50 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 q
sediment. Later on more pro-
nounced symptoms will be present,
such as dizziness, bloating, ETC.,
with marked bladder and urinary
disorders.
Poisonous waste matter is collected
by the blood from all parts OF the syR-
tenn and carried TO the kidneys, where
IL 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 overworked, bu.
underfed. How necessary is 1t, there
fore, that the purity and vitality OF the
blood should be maintain ed. IL isplain
why the great blood purifier and
strengthener-Dr. Harter 8 Iron Tonic
has been successfully used in treating
@AAANy 4AnDnnG1 dAA HAAABs
In purifying the blood the kidneys are
greatly relieved, while, at the same time,
new strength and vitality are given
those organs. The following letter tells
q very old story;

There are thousands of Just such
cases as the above that are treated
without results because they are
wrongly treated. Mr.. COrdells

the rest Of the system, had been

gle Of the war. A biographical sketch.
written at the time Of bis death, says !:
"Mr. Ingraham was al school at Con.
cord at the time that detachment of
British troops was sent to destroy the
munitions OF war which the citizens
had collected in that town. Being then
boy Of sixteen, he Joined the brave
but undisciplined troops who focked to
the standard OF their country; was pres
eat when the British first fired OF the
American militia, and Joined IL the pur-
suit Of the retiring foe. When The pro
vincial forces assembled for The defence
Of Boston, Mr.. Ingraham proceeded
thither, but was TOO late to participate
in the action of Bunker Hill.
"Aiter this he served as lieutenant iu
the army Of Gen. Gates. He was in the
battle Of Saltwater. and Joined in the
pursuit Of Burgoyue's army until their
surrender at Saratoga.
"He was long a resident of PhiIadel-
phia [whefe he married and conducted
an extensive mercantile businessl; and
left there four years ago to visit his son
in this county. Here he remained most
Of the time since, until his death.
Though past the allotted period OF mans
existence, he retained great yigor and
energy, and might often be seen With
dog and gun, trudging on foot over
field and woodland, in pursuit Of the
partridge, whichlhe would check in its
flight with a skillt that might excite the
envy Of younger sportsmen.
"1'he remains of this venerable old
patriot we're consigned to the grave in
the Port Gibson cemetery with the SOL
emu service of the Episcopal church.
During the funeral. all places of busi-
ness were closed, aud minute guns were
fred by direction Of the authorities of
the town."
Another notice, also from the pen Of

Ankle Crushed by Rifle Ball and
May Have to BE Amputatcd.
Waycross. Ga. June 1S.-Dean
Lanier, son of Tax Collector R. NJ.
Lanier, was accidentally shot through
the ankle with a 3S-calibre rifle at
noon to-day. The ball crushed the
ankle bone. and it is feared that the
foot will have to be amputated. Dean
and a party of friends had been camp
ing on the banks of the SatilIa river
since yesterday After attempting to
shoot a squirrel this morning the rife
was leaned against a tree with the
hammer still cooked. Roy Cason picked
the gun up, when it was discharged,
the ball entering Deans foot He
was hurried to town as quickly as
possible where the wound was dressed.
At the annual conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church for the
Waycross district held at Brunswick
last week, it was decided TO erect in
the city of Waycross q district parson-
age, to cost not less than $1,000. The
conference owns a lot on Lee avenue
next to the Bailey residence, and the
parsonage will probably be built on
this lot. The building committee ap-
pointed are c. c. Buchanan, e. P. Pea
Dooy, l.. AklnS, j j. Lott ana V. L.
Stanton. The next conference will be
held at Trinity Church in Waycross.
Should Judge T. A. Parker, of Bax-
ley decline TO enter the race for the
1udgeship of the Brunswick circuit for
the short term in the vacancy caused
by the resignation Of Judge Jos. w.
Bennett, it is very probable that Judge
j. S. Williams, OF Waycross will be
candidate. The friends of Judge Will
hams viii Insist on his entering the
race. Judge Williams has not yet been
seen in regard to the matter, how
ever.
The Twenty-seventh District Sun

THE NEXT STATE PLATFORM.

NO kansas City and Free silver bus
mess, Says Miller of SIuscOgee.
VIII BE Fight on Local Option
Plank.
Atlanta, June 1s.-Hon. B. s. Miller,
of Muscogee. delegate TO the state con-
vention from his county, says any ef-
fort to revive the Kansas City plat
form so far as free silver and several
other things are concerned. will be Wig
orously fought, and that as he I'M
derstood it, new platform, making
new issues will be adopted. Mr.. Miller
has conversed with many delegates to
the convention. and the consensus of
opinion seems to be that the Georgia
convention will relegate free silver to
the rear and come out squarely for Gu
ban reciprocity and other things of ma
tional Importance.
The policy Of the national govern
ment in the Philippine Islands will be
strongly condemned, so ii is said
1t is not thought that the putting of
local option in the state platform will
go through without a fight, although
it is being strongly urged that the
late primary settled the question for
ever in Georgia, and that to make a
certainty of the matter the party
should declare for local option.

weeping over him in the street when
he was taken to the hospital, has been

Friends of Speyers here say he had
a weak heart, that it is not at all i'm
probable that this was the cause of
his death, though morphine or drugs
may have had something TO do with it.
