Never neglect your kidneys.
 If vou have pain in the back, urinary disorder, dizziness and nervousness, US time to act and no time to experiment. These are all symptoms of kidney trouble, and you should seek a remedy which is known to cure the kidneys,

ITS RECORD
Nit. VesuTius and Some of
 It's History

! Mount Vesu7iuS is tho most famous volcano in the world and the only active one on the continent of Europe. It is situated on the Bay of Naples, aD estuary otthe Tyrhenian sea, niue miles east-southeast of Naples, the capital oi the Italian province of that name and about l25 miles southeast of Rome. It has two summits, the volcano proper, about 4,2OO feet high, and Monte Som ma, to the north, 373O feet high. It is about 225 miles northeast of Mt. Etna, which is on the island of Sicily, and is the next most famous European volcano. 1 As a volcano, VeSuvius was regarded as extinct in ancient times, aud on its southern slope, five miles distant from the summit was builtPompeii,a flourish ing provincial city, containing many Luxurious villas of Romans, a seat of learning and thearts. Almost at the seas edge at the food of the western slope, four miles from thecrater, was the scarce less important town of Herculansum,
 The first indication that power for evil lurked in tre acherous VesuviuswaS in the year A. D. 63, when severe earth quakes seriously injured Pompeii and Herculaneum. The first eruption, and the worst, unless that now progressing exceeds it took place l6 years later, in the year A. D. 79. Both POmpeii anu Herculaneum were totally destroyed. They were covered with mud and then ashes and lava to depth of from 70 to 1l2 feet.
 ; ssThe most destructive eruptions since that which destroyed these ancient cities took place Dec. l6, l63l. Others, more or less notable, occurred in 2O3, 472, 5I2, 6S5, ll39, l7O7, 1779. 1794, lS2l, 1855 and 1872.
 The destruction of Pompeii and Herculaneum and their resurrection in recent years are among the most in teresting events iu history. Alter in- termittant exca7ating, shortly after the burial of Pompeii, in search of buried treasure, the site of the city was lost and Pompeii and it's tragic end t1rgotteA until l74S, when peasants quite by accident come upon some works of art in a ruined house they had found under the ground That revived interest in Pompeii and since then excavations have been numerous. Work has been continuous since 1860, and more than half of the city has been uncovered.
 The very existence of 6eculaneum l had been forgotten and the modern city of Reslna, lone of these distroyed Monday had been built over it when 1 in I7O9 an inhabitsn5 Of Resina sunk a twelI which reached the ancient level al a stage of theatre, revealing sculp lures and marble facings.
 The ruins of Pompsii and Herculau- cum were preserved almost perfectly, and their resurrection has given us our best information of ancient civilization and many of the worlds greatest works of art.
 Historical events and the customs ioi the people of those early days have been revealed as through DO other source ot Iinformatiau, as well as have been vivid pictures of the terrible ending of Vesu. vius' first victims.
 Balwer Iytton's Last Days of Pom ueii" was based upon this geatest tragedy in the worlds history.

Dummy Train Sent Out, But Fails to
Catch Him.

Chicago will be at the side OF

Pine. When the limited approaches

volver. Have the money in bag and
drop it off the hind end of the train. II
you don't do as | say your train will

This was part of the wording of a let.
ter threatening to blow up one OF the
Lake Shore passenger trains unless
$4,000 was paid over to the unknown
writer that caused the Lake Shore
road Wednesday night to send
dummy train, filled with armed men
out of Chicago. and at a point in lndi-
ana, designated by the bandits, to stop
the train.
This was done, but no one was
found in the neighborhood. AS soon as
the train slowed up Superintendent
Wilson. with score of United States
deputy marshals and railroad detec.
tives. leaped from the coaches and be.
gan a hunt that is still iii progress.
Three posses are searching the In.
diana marshes in the vicinity of Pine,
Miller and Aetna
Two employees of the Aetna powder
works have been arrested. Their ar
rest was caused by the finding in their
room of bottle of nitroglycerine. The
bandit, in his letter. instructed the
railroad company to carry the money
to him on the limited express, which
leaves Chicago at 5: SO in the evening.
Three letters in all were received
from the mysterious writer, and the
railroad officials turned the matter
over to the United States postal au
thorities, who planned the dummy"
train to trap the bandit.

convention of the American Society OF
Equity, composed of farmers, began
here Tuesday. over 500 delegates
were present. In his annual address
President C. o. Drayton of Green.
Vile, Illinois, said:
This is not a trust nor a combine,
to force eXtortionate prices, but
rather an organization to get profit
able prices for farm products 1t is
composed of local unions of farmers
established at shipping points. The
unions from these points form the
state association. These, combined
form the national association. Our
grain country. cold storage plants, hay
barns and places to store all sorts OF
farm products.
IF the market is low the society
will hold the produce until the de,
mand forces up Improbable prices
when the goods may be sold. The
poor farmer who cannot afford to hold
his grain will be given a warehouse
receipt good for two-thirds the face
value of the grain represented.
The farmers hope, by this regula'
tion of supply and demand. to estab
lish the market values In this con.
nection we will issue daily price bulle
tins. Telephones in farmhouses will
be advocated, in order that the farmer
may be quickly advised of a rise. This
Will give him an opportunity to sell at
