WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.


Their Unceasing 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 unhealthy
some part of this impure matter is left in
the blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms-pain in the back,
headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatism, govt, gravel, disorders of
the eyesight and hearing, dizziness, irreg-
ular heart, debility drowsiness, dropsy,
deposits in the urine, etc. But if you
keep the filters right you will have no
trouble with your kidneys.
Mrs. II. +. Thompson, living on Wood
worth Ave, says: Mr.. Thompson suffer
ed from kidney trouble in its worst form
and when he was finally cured by the use
of Doan's Kidney Pills 1T is no wonder
that he should most strongly recommend

A NEW BOND LAW.

A bill is now pending before the l@gis-
lature which if passed will allow saloon
keepers to get surety companies for
bondsmen, instead of getting individual
bondsmen as at present Such a law is
now i'm force in many states. With a
surety company as bondsmen, the state
will not hesitate to push the bondsman
for any infringement of the liquor laws as
is often the case when individuals are
bondsmen and the surety companies will
be more particular about having the
liquor dealers live up to the law.

WRESTLING
THE MATCH
 OF MATCHES
O'Connell and Bothner Are Ready to Pull Arms or Legs Perhaps
 Heads Off Each Other.

All paths that do not lead to the Casino or the theater this evening will take the lovers of sports to the City hall where one of the best wrestling programs that has ever been presented in the city of Water bury will be on the boards. The two preliminaries will be hair raisers for each one is for blood. The main con- test however will excite the greatest amount of interest for it will bring together two of the greatest little grapplers in this country. Eddie O'Connell is fit as fiddle for the match and George Bothner has trained as he never has before. It will in reality be battle between ? colleges for O'Connell is the wrestl- ing instructor at Yale and Bothner has the same position at Columbia. There will be whole lot of money wagered on the result for Bothner has sent word here to betsany part of $500 on his chances while O'Connell and his friends are busy taking up all they see of that pile. The match will be at catchweights as Bothner would not agree to make weight. It will be battle of two little giants and the best and most expert wrestl- ing that has ever been seen on mat in this state should be the re- suit.

It is said that Jack Dunn would like to have Roy Rock on his Baltimore team next season.
 Joe Bean has made Cynthy Taylor an offer to sign with Jersey Cfty for a tryout in the string.

 Chick Stahl will begin his 11th season of baseball in Boston in 1901. He will be 24 the 10 of January. He has never played with any other major league club than the Boston Nationals and the Boston Americans.
 George stallings does not believe in Sunday ball for Buffalo. "A team will lose very little by eliminating Sunday baseball" he said. ''I do not approve of 1t. If we had Sunday ball in Buffalo the attendance on other days would be smaller.
 Sam Mertes began his baseball ca reer with the Philadelphia Nationals. dropped into the minors for three years. came back. and was for five years with New York and a half sea- son with the St Louis Cardinals.
 Mig" Clarke. the hard-hitting catcher of the Cleveland club. took a trip to Cleveland to talk with the club owners about his 1907 salary. He was offered raise. but not as much as he thinks his record entitled him to. Consequently the contract is still unsigned.
 Heine Batch of the Brooklyn Ma tionals and Pitcher Nal Eason will go to Jacksonville. Fla. on or about January g for a lo6k siege of train ing. Batch is fast rounding into something like his old-time self. He thinks that a couple of months in Florida will make him as strong as ever.
