Very few people are entirely free

to derange the kidneys. A little cold,
strain, STOPPING positions or hard
work, overtaxes those delicate organs
and many aches and pains promptly
follow. A Lexington citizen tells you
here how every kidney i'll can be re-
lieved and cured. Read about it:
John p. Rhodes of Main street, tn e
well known farmer whose farm is one
mile east Of Lexington, says: 81 shall

Shooting of Bats

The Churlottes vile Progress has
the following tc say in connection
with the shooting Of bull-bats:
A game warden Of Albemarle
has taken pains to inquire into
the matter. He stated to The
Progress man today that n law
professor CT the University has
stated that bnll-bat shooting is
plainly against the law. Promi-
nent Richmond and Glen Allsl
sportsmen sustain this view, one
gentleman stating tlat the farm
ers made Il Wig rous protest against
bat shooting, maintaining that it
is the most valuable insectivoroIs
bird. Mr.. William II. Duke was
among those in the Legislature
who protested. Some persons in
the community boast and claim
that they have the right to shoot
bats and intend to do so. The
game wardens are on the lookout
for such persons and propose to
break up bat shooting, although
the wardens are, hemselves, very
fond Of the sport.
