A MOVEMENT FOR
BIG AUDITORIUM
SEVERAL CITIZENS WANT TO
ERECT LARGE ARMoRY SUI
TABLE FOR ALL PURPOSES.

A large auditorium and armory Is
the latest probability for Brunswick
and if the efforts of several well
known business men prove successfuI
the city will have a building. when
viii be used by the military am
which will be suitable for any occas-
ion.
The plan as outlined to News re-
porter yesterday by one OF those IN
terested was for the erection of a
large hall. suitable for the use o.
the military as an armory. and which
will be large enough to accommodate
a meeting of any Kind II was point
ed out that there was not hall IN
Brunswick which could seat over two
or three hundred people, and such a
building Is badly needed. 1t is be-
heved that a large auditorium could
be erected at a small cost and 1t
would be OF great benefit to the city.
The movement is now on foot and
those interested will start the ball 10
rolling in earnest in few days. A
canvass will probably be made to see
just what can be done and then an
organization may be formed TO take
the matter in charge.

WHAT The KIDNEYS DO.
Their uneeaslng Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily. when un.
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back. headache, nervous
neEs, hot, dry skin. rheumatism
govt, gravel. disorders OF the eye,
sight and hearing, dizziness, dropsy
deposits in the urine. etc. But Il
you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.
