hapltual backaches, sideaches, head
acheS, tired feelings, exhaustion. ner-
Vousness and general weakness, find in

Many things b. ing on kidney troubles
colds, bruises, extensive burns, ex-
cessive drinking and eating, noxious
substances, damp cold weather, female
arrangements, excesses of all kinds.
Albumen in the urine is one of the
common after effects of childbirth.
For this and all the special weaknesses
to which women are SO apt to fall VIC
tins no remedy is to be compared with
DR.. Pettingills Kidney-Wort Tablets
for sureness and safety. They are to-
day the trusted medicine in thousands
of homes where female arrangements
demand attention.
Nothing is SO harmless or so easily
given to children for bed-wetting due
to bladder weakness. It never has
failed to do away with the trouble inn
mediately.
At the earliest signs of weakness of
the parts Shooting, cutting and tear
ing pains in the back. headaches, urine
bright red, depositing whitish sedi-
ments, take away the Inflammation
that is breaking down the kidney It's
sues and depositing them as sediment
in the urine by using Kidney-W Wort.
Foul breath, biliousness and consti-
patton are symptoms that accompany
kidney troubles. Persons who have
never suspected that they have weak
or diseased kidneys may learn for the
first time through these very common
symptoms the real peril with when
they are threatened.

the real seat of the trouble.
DR.. Pettingills Kidney-Wor Tablets
is the only remedy that reaches the
kidneys directly and effectively. Kid

is not q medical man in the world who
does not realize the wickedness of a
liquid kidney remedy. Alcohol Is the
wrecker of disordered kidneys, and al
cohol enters into the makeup of liquid
kidney remedies to enable them to

purely vegetable. They will not harm
the child in arms. They have saved
the lives of thousands of men and
women afflicted with kidney disease In

CHELSEA LOSES BRIDGES.
Three of Them Taken Out by Recent
Heavy Rainfall.

Chelsea, Me, March 12.-(SpeciaD.-
AS result of the continued heavy
rains, as well as the breaking of the
dam at the foot of Little ToguS" lake
and the one at the grist mill, Togus,
three bridges are entirely gone, and the
approach TO the other two so badly
washed that they are impossible. The
bridge near Z. II. Libby's on the
Searles Mills road, has gone entirely,
even the abutment being washed away.
The water is still very high and it will
probably be several days before they
can be even temporarily repaired. The
cost to the town will be several hum
drcd dollars.

WILL STAND TRIAL.
DR.. Ames Decides to Face Accusers in
Minneapolis.

Manchester. N. H., March Eek
to the advice of his physicians and, it
is believed, without the knowledge of
his counsel. decided, this afternoon, to
return to Minneapolis and stand trial
He will leave on the 1919 train Satur-
day morning via Boston and Chicago,
and will therefore be out of the state
when the time limit in which he was
required 10 furnish bail is up the same
day at p. NJ. He will be accom-
panied by Mrs. Ames and their child.
DR.. Ames went out, today, and had his
beard trimmed.
The decision to return was his own,
and was not made until his wife's rela-
tives had come forward with sureties
enough for his bail of $4,000.
When asked by a reporter to affirm
or deny the statement that he was GO
ing back he positively declined to say
a word. and maintains the same dis
erection in regard to newspapers which
he has preserved since coming to New
Hampshire.
The arrangements have, however, all
been made by Sherffs Doane and
Dreger. One New Hampshire officer
will accompany the Ames family with
Sheriff Dreger to Minneapolis, which
will be reached Monday night or Tues
day morning. DR.. Ames, to the officers,
expresses himself well pleased with his
visit to New Hampshire, and hopes
that his health will stand the fatigues
of the journey and the judicial ordeal
afterwards, through which he believes
he will pass unscathed.

BRIDGES GOING.
The Result of Recent Rains
Now Being Felt.
ron Structure Over Sebasticook
Taken Out by Ice.
Three Gone at Chelsea and Clinton Is
in Danger.

Waterville. Me-, March 12.-(SpeciaD.
The iron highway bridge over the
Sebestacook went out during the day,
being thrown off the piers by an ice
jam that formed short distance above
and then broke and rushed down on
the bridge. The water in this stream is
and had it not been for the ice jam the
bridge would doubtless have stood all
right. 1t was feared that this bridge
going down against the new one a
short distance below and which is used
for the electric car line would dis
lodge that and efforts were made to Sc
cure and hold it.
The bridge that went out was about
10 years old and cost something like
100000 1t was not very long or heavy
and not of the kind to stand much
pressure from the ice. This loss will
cause considerable Inconvenience, as
there was much travel over the bridge.
Arrangements can doubtless be made,
however. SO that teams can cross on
the Electric Road bridge.
When the bridge at Benton Falls
went out the ice was crowded up onto
the track of the Benton & Fairfield
Electric Road, where it runs on the
brink of the river bank, and tore up
a good sized section of it. The little
boat house that was perched on the
side of the bank near the cemetery
was reduced to kindling wood in short
order. The Electric Road bridge just
below was not affected any.

Buffalo, N. Y, March 1.-THE fact
that every person known to be concern
ed in the Burdick mystery will give in
public the statement they made before
the district attorney, will doubtless
make the proceedings before Justice
Murphy most interesting.
Another move having an important
bearing on the Burdick case was de-
cided upon today, after District Attor-
1ey CoatSWOrth had conferred with
Chief of Detectives Cusack The au-
.horities have determined to obtain the
kilograms that passed between Mrs
Hurdick and Mrs. Hull before the MUIR
der of Burdick
The grand jury is now in session and
the district attorney can conduct John
Doe proceedings to require the West
arn Union to produce the kilograms.
The authorities questioned both Mrs.
Burdick and Mrs. Hull regarding the
contents of these kilograms. Both of
them gave the same version. They
said the messages were an inquiry and
are regarding Mrs. Hulls health. The
Western Union refused to produce the
messages, and for that reason, today's
proceedings were decided upon. The
kilograms may not be material to the
case but the authorities want to see
them.
The authorities may also try to
learn from both telegraph companies
what kilograms if any passed between
certain others for three weeks before
Burdick's death.
A list of persons to be subpoened to
the inquest was made up, today, and
some OF the subpoenaes were served,
tonight. Among those who will be
called are Mrs. Burdick, Mrs. Hull, the
servants Maggie Murray and Katie
Koenig. DR.. Marcy, Mrs. Paine and a
dozen others. The police believe the
inquest will result in important devel-
opments.
