ALCOHOL In LIQUID
KIDNEY "CURES."
Sick Kidneys Doomed If
They Are Used.
Kidney Wort Tablets a Nom
Alcoholic Remedy.

Alcohol in a kidney remedy is a crime.
Anyone with knowledge enough to pre-
pare a kidney remedy knows that alcohol
IS deadly poison and irritant when al
lowed to litter through diseased kidneys,
and people who deliberately buy liquid
kidney remedy, knowing that alcohol is
required to make such remedies keep, .
commit a blunder that often costs them
their lives.
Why run such a risk when Kidney Wort
Tablets are obtainable at every drug store
and there is no particle Of alcohol In them?
kindey-W0rt Tablets, because they con-
tain nothing that can interfere with a
steady Improvement, are today accomplish
ing results that no liquid kidney remedy
has ever attained They are curing well
developed cases Of diabetes and Bright's
disease. The Tablets have never failed to
check kidney diseases in the young and
the old. Il is the one kidney remedy that
leaves no bad after-effects That is be-
cause the Tablets are entirely vegetable.
The result Of kidney trouble. if allowed
to take its course is Bright's disease,
which is nothing less than consumption
of the kidneys.
Watch your urine for symptoms Of
trouble The morning urine is the best
test. Let it stand for half an hour in a
glass and then look for sediment particles
ike brick dust or high color. Ii your sus-
picions are confirmed by pains In the loins,
headaches or swelling ef hands or feet,
you should realize your danger. In these
early stages DR.. Pettingil's Kidney. Wort
Tablets send their healing and life-giving
virtues to the very seat Of the disorder,
and always do their work without failure.

WRECK
OF Coal Cars at pinnlckinnick Coal
Mines.

There was bad mix Of coal cars at
Pinnickinnick mines Tuesday, just
east of clarksburg. One of the yard
engines went down there to do some
switching, and in transferring the
cars from one track to the other a
brakeman failed to throw the switch
in time and the engine and cars run
into some other cars, badly demolish-
ing them. A car load of mine cars and
load of mine props were badly used
up in the wreck. The brakeman claims
that owing to the cold weather the
switch stuck on him ana he could not
get it turned in time. The wrecking
crew from Grafton was dispatched to
the scene and it was late in the even
ing before the wreck was cleared up.
AS no switching of cars could be done,
the coal company were practically tied
up all day.
