For Kidney Troubles.

The Kidneys are the blood filters.
They are operated solely by the In
side nerves. The branch which oper-
ates them and regulates themSs called
the renal plexua When the renal
plexus IN weak or irregular. the kid
noys become clogged with the very
Doisons they should throw on. No
kidney treatment can clean them out
or cure them and one stage leads into
another until after n while the Kid
news themselves begin to break down
and dissolve. There fs only one way
to reach kidney trouble-that is
through the inside nerves that control
them, which Dr. Shops Restorative
nlone strengthons and restores.

In Police Court

Mayor Kirkland held very in
teresting session of court last ev-
ening, and His Honor dealt out
some salty doses to the transgres-
sors of the law. Six of the young
men implicated in the drunken
brawl early Sunday morning In
the alley in the rear OF the Ho-
tel Mercer were arraigned before
the Mayor, and five out Of the
six plead guilty, being fined $3.50
each. The other one, Charles
Williamson, not having the ready
cash, was given ten days IN the
city bastile. There were a num-
Der of others implicated in the
disgraceful affair, but have not
yet been apprehended. The po'
lice, however, are keeping sharp
lookout for them, and it will only
be a matter of a few days until
they, too, will be caught and
made to settle or placed behind
the bars. The Mayor cannot be
too highly commended for his
prompt action in bringing these
young rowdies to a speedy ac-
count for their riotous conduct.
Besides teaching the guilty par
ties a lesson which it is hoped
will result in a reformation in the
future lives of the young men,
quite a snug sum will be placed
in the treasury of the city.
