AVOID BRIGHT DISEASE
Simple Prescription Prevents
Kidney Trouble
PLEASANT AND HARMLESS

Difficulties and Relieves Rheu-
matsm.

More people succumb each year to
some form of kidney trouble than any
o: her cause. The slightest form of kid
ney arrangement otter. develops
into Bright's kidney disease, diabetes
or dropsy When either of these dis
eases are suspected the suffered should
at once seek the best medical attention
possible. Consult only a good first
class physician, leave patent MEDICINES
alone.
There are many of the lesser symp
toms of kidney trouble which can be
treated at home is stated by we'll
known authority. For some of these
such as backache, pain in the region of
the kidneys, weak bladder, frequency,
Especially at mighty painful scaling
and other urinary troubles, try the
following simple home remedy: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, One-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce,
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. These simple ingredients are
harmless and can be obtained at any
good prescription pharmacy and any
one can mix them by shaking well in
a bottle. The dose for adults is "a
teaspoonful after each meal and again
at bedtime.
There is no better general remedy
known to relieve all forms of rheuma-
tism either. because it acts directly
upon the kidneys and blood. 1t cleans
the clogged up pores in the kidneys so
they can filler and strain from the
blood the poisonous uric acid and
waste matter which if not eliminated
remain in the blood, decompose and
settle about the joints and muscular
tissues causing the untold suffering
and deformi.y of rheumatism.
Bachache is natures signal notify
ing the sufferer that the kidneys are
not acting properly. Take care of
your Kidneys" is now the physicians

WITHIN EIGHT YEARS
Panama Canal Will Be Doing Busi
ness, Prophecies Taft. in Al
dress to Business Men.

IF the Panama canal is net COM
pleted within eight years from nov,
I shall be greatly disappointed. Ii it
is completed in less time than that,
1 shall not be greatly surprised"
This statement made Monday night
by Secretary of War Taft before the
Business Mems Club of Cincinnati
brought forth uproarious cheers, the
600 members OF the club who We're
gathered inside the banquet hall ris-
ing to their feet and cheering the
statement and the speaker with tre-
mendous enthusiasm.
Referring to the rejection OF bids
by contractors the secretary said:
I'VE adverti d for bids on the
canal work, and then declined them
for the reason that we found that
it would be necessary for the contrac-
tors to have the help OF capitalists and
we would be compelled to allow to the
contractors seven per cent Interest
on the money they would be compelled
to borrow from the capitalists. AS We
could borrow money at 2 per cent,
this 7 per cent proposition did not
appeal greatly to us.
Il wish to pay a high compliment
to Chief Engineer Stevens for his
work i'll connection with the canal
and also fer his efforts to transfer to
the government the entire organiza-
ton on the isthmus, which he had
perfected at such great labor.
ITO us in responsibility, it is a
great comfort to be able to introduce
the army engineers upon the work.
We have three of them there and if
one of them falls out, the continuity
of the work will be undisturbed. 1t
is only fair to say of the army en-
gineers that there will be no graft
that they can suppress and there will
be no bad work accepted that they
can supervise. No doubt engineers
from civil life would act in similar
manner, but if any OF you gentlemen
have ever managed a work of magni-
tude where everybody had the right
to poke in his nose and insist upon
this and that, you would know how
great is the relief to have that oone
away with. The record of the army
for the last fifty years is guarantee
that the work will be capable and
honestly performed"

POLICE GUARD TILLMAN.
Senator Delivers Characteristic Lee
ture in Pittsburg, Pa,-Some Ex-
citement, But No Trouble.

AS a precautionary measure twenty
two detectives and a squad Of uni
formed policemen were stationed IN
the Carnegie Music Hall at Pittsburg,
Pa. Wednesday night, during the adj
dress of Senator Benjamin R. Till
man of South Carolina, who discuss
ed the race problem before the Park
Avenue allegheny Athletic Cub.
Several incidents occurred, but no
trouble resulted. There were but ten
negroes in the audience, which filed
the music hall to overaowing.
At the close Of the address, in which
he declared the races in the south
were gradually becoming more op-
posed to one another, Senator Tillman
called for q vote Of the audience as
to whether The negro was the equal
of the white man. The entire audi
ence, except the ten negroes, voted
in the negative.
One man took exceptions to Till
mans remarks, and made several In
terruptions. Tillman made him admit
he came from Europe, and he bitterly
denounced Europeans who undertake
to judge questions concerning this
country.
In discussing whether the negro cen
be educated, Senator Tillman declar-
ed that Booker T. Washington was
the harbor of refuge and safety TO
which people flee when other places
fail, and that Booker T. Washington
was but one negro in ten million and
was half white at that.

PRINTER FILLED WITH LEAD.
Brother Applies "Unwritten Law" in
Defense of Sister.

OSIenSe OF SISIST.
Charging that he had betrayed his
sister, an eighteen-year-old girl, l.. D.
Strong, manager for Kessler's dry
goods store, shot and killed H.. D.
Smith, printer in Macon, Ca, Mon
day.
The shooting occurred at Smiths
printing Office. Four bullets from
Strong's pistol taking effect. Smith
was hurried to the hospital, bat died
shortly after reaching there. He made
statement before his death, but
tainted before he could sign it.
He said in that statement that
Strong had shot him about his sister,
but that he was innocent of the cnarg-.
Strong surrendered and was carried
to the police station.
Strong contends that Smith. who is
a married man, and who is survived
by his wife and several children, had
betrayed his sister. A warrant had
been sworn out for Smith and the
trial was to have taken place Mon.
day morning in a justice court. But
owing to the absence of Joe Hill Hall,
attorney for Smith. the case was con-
tinued.
Both. Strong and Smith left the
court room a few minutes later, so
the report gees, and Strong passed
Smiths Office. Smith, it is claimed,
made some taunting remark, and
Strong thereupon pulled pistol and
fired four times, every shot taking
effect.
At the city hospital Monday after
noon, Coroner T. E. Young completed
his investigation of the killing. The
jury returned a verdict declaring that
il was a case of justifiable homicide,
and there was no time lost in acquit'
ting Strong.
