KIDNEY CURE,

] EEfyEvz . WyEsang
There is no disease so insinuat-
8 ing, so slow but sure, as kidney dis
I case, 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 maybe pale
or thin, Or thick and milky with
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 sys
tenn and carried to the kidneys, where
urine. The kidneys deal with the blood
only, deriving nourishment there
from. Hence, if the blood is bad the
kidneys are not only overworked, bu.
underfed. How necessary is it, there
fore, that the purity and vitality Of the
blood should be maintain ed. 1t is plain
why the great blood purifier and
| Strengthened DIR. Harter 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
very old story:
PINE KNOT, KY, June Is, 1902
The DR.. Harter Medicine Co., Dayton, o.
GENTLEMEN: l had a severe case of
/ typhoid fever six years ago, which left
my kidneys ia bad order. l have tried
a number of remedies and taken treat |
ment from doctors, but Dr. Harter's Iron
Tonic has done me more good than
everything else. C. 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.. COrdell's
condition resulted from an exhaust
ing fever; the kidneys, as well as
the rest of the system, had been
wasted by disease. No wonder DR..
Harter's Iron 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.

ASK FOR ACTION
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT SENDS
A MESSAGE TO CON-
GRESS.
PROMPT RELIEF FOR fIllPlNOS
NECESSITY FOR PASSAGE OF
TARIFF REDUCTION BILL
URGENT.
GOV. TAFT MAKES STRONG PLEA
PRESIDENT URGES ACTION AS
A MEASURE OF HUI.
MANlTY.

Washington, March 2. - Presi Cent
Roosevelt yesterday sent a message to
congress urging action on the bill pro-
viding for tariff reduction. The presi-
dent says:
II have just received a cable from
Gov. TAFT which runs as follows:
Necessity for the passage of the
house tariff bill is most urgent. The
conditions of the productive industry
and business is considerably worse
than in November, the date of the last
report, Ind is growing worse each
month. There is some revival in
sugar and tobacco prices, due to en-
pectation of tariff law. The inter-
ests of Filipinos in sugar and tobacco
are extensive and the failure of the
hill will be blow in the face of those
interests. A nunfer of tobacco fac
tories will have to close and many
sugar plantations will be put up for
sale at a sacrifice if the bill does not
rass. Customs receipts have fallen off
this month one-third, showing the de-
crease of the purchasing power of the
islands. General business is stagnant.
Ali political parties. including labor
unions. are most strenuous in the Pc
t:tion for the tariff bill. The effect of
it's failure very discouragins.
The president reviews the condi-
tons on the islands, which he says
give grounds for grave fears of a
famine, and urges that the matter re-
ceiya the immediate attention of con-
gress, and that the relief prayed for be
granted. The president says:
Il ask action in the tariff matter.
not merely from the standpoint of
wise governmental policy, but as a
measure of humanity IN response to
an appeal to which this great people
should not close it's ears.
1--WE have assumed responsibilities
toward the Philippine islands which
we are in honor bound to fulfill. A
permanent basis of future prosperity
can be assured il the economic rela-
lions of the islands with the United
States are put upon satisfactory
basis
