Daniel Briggs, one of the life guards
employed on the beach by the Bor-
ough of Wildwood, died at the Cooper
hospital in Camden Tuesday night as
the result of injuries sustained by div
ing from the Wildwood Casino pier
last Sunday afternoon. In company
with his cousin Mr.. Briggs dove from
the roof of the small pagoda at the end
of the pier into the surf, a distance of
about 25 or 80 feet. The depth of the
water at hat time was only about five
or six feet. He struck bottom, injuring
his spinal column and it was reported
that his back vas broken. When la
ken from the water an examination
was made by DIR. Cohen and it was
found he was badly injured. The un-
fortunate man was taken to the hos
pital on the $50 train Sunday after
noon. The published reports that Mr..
Briggs dove from the pier to rescue a
bather in danger is untrue. On the
contrary the leap, it is said, was made
on a wager. He and others have beer
in the habit of making these dives, but
generally the tide was higher and the
water deeper than it was last Sunday.
Mr.. Briggs was about Is old and
was married. His former home was at
Greenwich. He served five years on
the sch COL ship Saratoga.

It's Your Kidneys.
Don't Mistake the Cause Of Your
Troubles.

Many people never suspect their kid
neys. If suffering from lame, weak or
aching back they think that it is only
muscular weakness; when urinary
trouble sets in they think it will soon
correct itself And so it is with all the
other symptoms of kidney disorders.
That is just where the danger lies. You
must cure these troubles or they lead
to diabetes OF Brights disease. The
best remedy TO use is Doan's Kidney
Pills. 1t cures all ills which are caused
by weak or diseased kidneys.
j. h, Floyd, ST., formerly chief of po-
lice, now sanitary inspector of Mar
shall, Texas, says: 81 have tried many
remedies for kidney troubles in my
time, and am glad to state that Doan's
Kidney Pills is the best medicine / ever
used or heard tell of. Before / got my
first box of this remedy | had been a
sufferer for years from kidney and blad-
der troubles. The pains in the small of
my back and across the loins were very
severe, and when l sat down while /
could hardly get up again. To turn
over in bed at night had to take hold
of the frame of the bed and pull myself
over. The secretions were irregular, al
times too frequent and again scauty
and gave of bad odor. Sometimes !
would take spells of dizziness and my
head would swim until / could hardly
! see. Since using Doan's Kidney Pills
! these symptoms have disappeared, and
| ! feel better than did for years. They
also cured my daughter of Dizzy head
