NO LIQUID KIDNEY
REMEDY DID THIS
No Alcoholic Remedy Could
Have Helped Him.
Details of How Kidney Wort Tablets
Cured,

The following is a detailed account of
most remarkable recovery from kid
ney disease that had progressed so far
that the sufferer had already had two
attacks of commissions. due to uric acid
poisoning. Nothing but DR.. Pettingill's
kidneyWort Tablets were used.
Dalton, Mass, April %, 1903.
Gentlemen wish you to know how
very much better my husband is since
taking Kidney-Wort Tablets. His APP
petite has improved, sleeps well, has no
pain in back or head nor any stomach
trouble. His urine has cleared, so that
it is quite it's natural color. He has
improved greatly in looks and grows
stronger every day 1 have recon-
mended the Tablets to my acquaint-
ances. I think they are wonderful He
has had no attack of commissions since
taking the Tablets.
Respectfully yours,
MRS. C. H. WOODWORTH.
No liquid kidney remedy could have
done this-the alcohol present In all
such remedies would have made such n
recovery impossible. Alcohol inflames
the tiny filtering tubes, hardens them
so that they cannot do their work Kid
ney-Wort Tablets contain no alcohol.
They cure kidney diseases where other
remedies have no effect
The spring is favorable to the begin
ming of kidney troubles. The damp
ness leads to colds; backaches are
prevalent. Everyone should watch any
change that takes place in the urine.
If your back aches, your appetite
grows tickle, your urine becomes dark
and cloudy, smells bad, has n heavy
sediment, or your feet, legs or hands
swell, make this test:
Allow a bottle OF your morning urine
to stand for twenty-four hours. If you
find a dark sediment. "brick-dust" de-
post or particles floating on top. take
the Tablets and notice the rapid clear
ing of the urine and the Improvement
in the general health.

The following statement was made to
the public by the students, Tuesday:
"Out of Difference to the advice of
certain members of the Colby club of
this city, and with the conviction that
such warning was out of place in the
petition signed. Yesterday morning. the
student body of the college voted, this
morning, to withdraw the statement
that after =. NJ. yesterday, no college
exercises would be attended.
This withdrawal indicates no weak
cning whatever in the position held by
the students. They still claim as
stated in tho original petition. that the
recent indisCriminate suspension of the
sophomore class is unjust and unwar-
ranted. They claim, further, that un-
der the present circumstances their pc
tition that the sophomore class be re-
instated has Il right to immediate con-
sheraton by the president and faculty,
which claim has been thus far dsre-
Eardcd.
1T is felt that this statement of their
position should be made public.

At the conference between the COM
mittce appointed by the Colby Club
ana the students in the chapel, Monday
evening, it was suggested by the for
mer that the time limit or "ultimatum"
clause of the petition presented to the
president and faculty by the students
be withdrawn as this was perhaps Il
little too high-handed to allow consid-
Grafton by the faculty.
So this was withdrawn, Tuesday
morning, and it was decided that the
regular college exercises of the day
would be attended. But the remainder
of the petition was allowed to stand
and the students seemed as firm in
their position as ever. The majority
attended chapel as usual and took eX-
aminatiOns that had been appointed for
the day. The sOphomores, however,
having been suspended took no part in
any Of the regular college exercises.
There was therefore Il sort of truce
during the day between the two sides
but so far as could be discovered the
students We're as firm in their purpose
to have the sophOmOreS re-instanted as
they had been the day before and in
their resolve to leave if this was not
done.
The Colby Club is acting somewhat
in the character of Il board of arbitra-
ton and is attempting to hit upon
some course that will settle the matter.
The fact that the students We're in
duCcd to change the original petition
was considered encouraging, Tuesday,
although this was not looked upon as
being so very much of a gain. There
WAS no indication of any change in the
policy adopted by the president and
faculty ana not many expected that
there would be.

~ UDGE CARROLL COOK gave a
decision yesterday in the case of

" who are charged with assault on
Frederick Marriott on the night OF
September g. that let in flood of testi-
mony for the defense. At the last ses-
sion of the court the question was left
in allegiance as to whether or not the
conversation occurring between the two
defendants prior to the visit to the Mar
riott house was admissible, and numer-
Gus authorities were submitted by both
sides. Judge Cook gave ample considera-
ton to the points cited and then went
law hunting for himself with the result
that he overruled the contention Of the
defense that all the conversations pert
inent to the issue were admissible. At
the same time he decided. by an analo-
gous ruling, that In cases where defend
ants were tried together a confession of
one might be used to the detriment of
another; so the conversation of one de-
fendant relating to the motive of the act
was admissible for the interest of the
other and vice versa. Accordingly

said to Beale in connection with the al
