XYHEN the kidneys become affected w by catalrh, either from colds, over work, or an extension of catarfh from some other organ, they fail to perform their normal functions.
 It is the work of the kidneys to ex- crete from the blood many of the poisons which accumulate in the body.
 If the kidneys fail in their work, the pcisons accumulate to such an extent as 10 cause ronvulsions, which often prove fatal.
 Peruns, by relieving the kidneys of their congested and catarrhal condi- tions, leaves them free to act in 6 normal manner.
 1t also strengthens the action of the neart, equalizing the circulation of the slaed in all pasts of the system.

year-old Josephine d, Davenport, a ward In

suited in the death Of three persons. The
child's mother. Mr. laura Davenport. a
Trenton woman, was arrested this after
moor on "A charge OF being a fugitive from
Justice. She Is wanted to answer an indict-
ment found by the Grand Jury several
months 60.
The woman will he questioned to rec II
she has any knowledge Of the poison case.
The Davenport child, who ate freely of the
candy. was in such a condition that her life
was despaired Of for many hours, and even
now the indications are that she will suffer
for weeks from the effects Of the poison.
That she was not killed outright was prob
ably due to her love for her father, which
prompted her TO save Il large part OF the
candy until he had paid her a visit.
Others who fell victims to the plot to kill
the child were Mrs, Jones M the latter's
son, Marvin Jones, who Is y years old. The
Davenport child was sent to the post office
and received the box, which was addressed
to her with a lead pencil, an attempt having
been made to disguise the handwriting,
The box bore a Trenton postmark and was
not wrapped but merely tied with a picceof
twine. The whole job had the appearance
Of being badly bungled, possibly In an ef-
