When the kidneys are sick there is
always a warning to tell you of it, and
when the kidneys call for help there is
no time to lose. Kidney diseases are
common and fatal-cause more deaths
every year than any other human ills.
But in nine cases out Of ten this is due
to neglect. Kidney disorders are easily
contracted, but just as easily cured
when treated properly and in time.
| Common causes of kidney troubles are
colds, fevers, exposure, strains on the
back, blood-poisoning diseases and in
diligence in stimulants.
| The kidneys are the blood filters, and
when they become sick the blood is soon
laden with impurities, which the kid
neys have failed to remove. This causes
backache,. stiff, lame and sore muscles,
aching joints, spells of dizziness, head
aches, rheumatic pains, sleeplessness,
nervousness and langour, weak heart
and many other bodily aches and ills.
Meanwhile the kidneys are fast break
ing down, and from this cause the urine
becomes discolored and full of sandy
sediment; passages are too frequent
and often painful.
Uric acid crystallizes and causes
gravel and kidney stones. The bladder
cannot perform its natural duties
Water which should pass off in the urine
collects in different parts Of the body
causing dropsical bloating.
The final outcome is either dreaded
diabetes or fatal Bright's Disease

CrystaIIized Poison!

Your blood is always full Of poison-the poison
you eat and drink and breathe into your sys-
TEN. 1t Is the purpose of the blood to absorb
and carry OF this very poison. And the kid
neys. which are the blood filters, are expected
to cleanse the blood and send it back through the
system clean, to gather more poison which, they,
In turn, will eliminate.
But sometimes the kidneys fail. And some
times from some other cause, the blood gets SO
full of poison that they cannot absorb it all.
This is the start Of rheumatism. The poison
accumulates and crystallizes. The crystals look
like little grains of sugar or of fine white sand.
The blood carries them and they increase in size.
Then, when 1t can carry them longer, it de-
posits them in joint-on a bone-anywhere.
The twinge in your leg-the dull ache in your
arm on a rainy day-these are the outward
signs Of the unseen crystals. And the twisted
who has allowed his symptoms to go unheeded
of what Rheumatism neglected, can do.
Rheumatism includes lumbago, sciatica, neural
gia, gout-for all these are the results OF
rheumatic poison in the blood.
Plainly, the first thing, to do is to remove the
poison. But this is not enough. The FORMA-
TION Of the poison must be stopped, so that ma
ture may have chance to dissolve and elimi
nate the crystals which have already formed.
Unless this is done there can be no cure-no per-
manent relief.

THE UNIVERSITY
FAVOR The FRESHMEN
GENERAL FACULTY COMMITTEE
TURNS DOWN ONE YEAR RULE
OF THE CONFERENCE.

Believing that rule barring fresh
men from participation in intercollegi-
ate games would be unjust and not ben
efcial to athletics in the west, the Uni
versity of Minnesota has refused to
ratify the action Of the big nine -
conference, which adopted that rule.
L This action on the part OF Minnesota,
which will .precipitate a fight in the
ssbig nine,' was taken yesterday at a
meeting Of the recently appointed gen.
eral faculty committee. This commit
tee has been given full power to act
for Minnesota IN regard to the adoption
of the conference rules. The other rules
recommended by the conference were
ratified with little discussion, but when
the freshman eligibility rule was called
to the attention Of the committee there
was an almost unanimous sentiment
against it's adoption.
The action Of Minnesota in refusing
to ratify the rule makes it ineffective
until passed by three fourth vote OF
the conference, and since a vigorous
fight is being made against the rule in
several of the western colleges it is
probable that. any freshman who can
make good next fall will be given an
opportunity to display his football
prowess in intercollegiate games.
