Kidney Diseases are too Dangerous to
be Neglected

The great danger OF kidney troubles is that they
get a firm hold before the sufferer recognizes
them Health is gradually undermined. Then in
quick succession follow backache, headache,
nervousness, lameness and soreness, lumbago,
urinary troubles, dropsy diabetes and Brght's
disease.
Don't neglect your kidneys.
Assist them in times of need with a certain and
safe remedy--DOan's Kidney Pills.
Cures in Belfast prove the value Of Doans Kid
ney Pills. Read this Belfast case:
Ralph D. Shute. farmer, living two and half
miles out on SearspOrt avenue, near Belfast, Me-,
says: "Since first recommended DOan's Kidney
Pills through the Belfast papers, some six years
ago, have often advised friends to use this rem
edy. and know of many cases in which it has
effected permanent and lasting cures My own
experience l have previously described. had
an attack of kidney complaint which laid me up
for several weeks, and when all other remedies
had failed got Doan's Kidney Pills at the City
Drug Store, and five boxes completely cured me.

ago. the fact that my cure has been lasting and
permanent"

of the Belfast Congregational church, and
40 years ago, on Palm Sunday, April 9th,
1865, he was present at the surrender of
Lees army. He then outlined in vivid
words the momentous events which led to
the overthrow of the Confederacy. Grant
with the Union forces was pressing in on
Lees army. Richmond and Petersburg had
been evacuated and the Confederates were
in full retreat. Sheridan had captured a
tox, and Custer pushing on to that place
fought the weared Confederates till dark.
By forced march of nearly 30 miles the
Union forces reached Appomattox in time
to support the cavalry and prevent the Con-
federates from getting away. On Palm
Sunday, April 9, just as the Union forces
We're preparing for a charge, the Confeder-
ates sent out a flag of truce and Lee, after
interchange Of communications, surrender
ed the army of Northern Virginia to Grant.
That night, although the Union army was
short of provisions, they divided their ra-
tons with their late foes. The next day
when the COnfederates marched up to lay
down their arms the Union soldiers re-
Trained from anything that would
humiliate the brave Confederates, but in
stead gave them the Marching Salute. This
was highly appreciated by the chivalrous
Gordon, who rode at the head of the Con-
federate column with downcast face, and
turning quickly he commanded his men to
return the honor in a similar way. There
was no word of vainglory, but rather an
awed stiffness as the Confederates stacked
arms, took off their cartridge belts, and
gave up their colors. And only the flag of
the Union waved over the scene. All day
long, division after division marched up
and laid down their arms, and then giving
their parole We're free to go to their homes.

The ordinances OF the city of Belfast
are similar to those of other cities of
its SIZE; the only difference is that else
where they ale enforced and here they
are not. Indeed, we once heard cti-
zen remark that the city officials them
selves violated these ordinances every
day 1t looks as though city Sturgis
commission is needed to enforce rules
that are necessary to ensure sanitary
conditions, Including clean streets.
Here, for example, is an ordinance that
has been practically a dead letter for
years:
Chapter IS Sec. 3. No person shall cast
OF deposit or cause to be cast or deposited,
III or upon any of the streets, lanes or high
"aIs aforesaid, any dirt, filth, SCOT, ashes,
garbage, carrlon, manure, Shreds, Shavngs,
oyster, clam or lobster shells, dead animals
VI fish. otfa, gravel, stones, brick bats or
ma>ons rubbish, or amy other rubbish or
nuisance whatsoever, nor shall any person
cast any carbon or dead animals into the
waters of Belfast river
No doubt it will be news to many
that such an ordinance exists. For
years rubbish of all kinds has been
thrown into the streets. Our new
street commissioner, Mr.. Bennett, is
now making an earnest effort to bring
about reform in this direction. He
has gone from street to street cleaning
out the cutters and removing the rub
bish only to find their condition day
or two later as bad as before the work
was done. Nothing gives to place SO
untidy an appearance as waste paper
blowing about the streets, and there is
nothing at which horses so readily take
fright. The Improvement Society tried
to remedy this by placing barrels about
the streets as receptacles for waste
paper, but the undertaking was not
wholly successful. The barrels will be
put out again this season. The whole
of Chapter Is, which relates to "un-
lawful and injurious acts and prac-
tees" is worth reading and some day
we propose to print it in full. Mean
while here is another section Q5) that
is violated daily:
No persons shall assemble in a nOisy:or
tamultuous manner, in any of the streets,
lanes, highways or other places in the city,
nor shall any person cry out, sing or halo in
noisy, b0isterOus or improper manner, or
stand idling or lettering upon the sidewalks
or cr0sswalks of the city, or obstruct the
passage to, or the places of public business,
10 the annoyance of citizens engaged in
their lawful pursuits.

A Rockland despatch says: Justice
S. c. Strout is giving persons indicted
in liquor cases choice between fine
and jail sentence" That is practically
license law; what does the Sturgis
commission think of it?
