each meal and at bedtime; also
drink plenty Of good water.

victims Of this dread and torturous
disease who will fail TO find ready
relief in this simple homemade
mixture. and in most cases a per-
manent cure is the result.

strengthen and cleanse the elimina-
tive tissues of the Kidneys, so that
they can filter and strain from the

REV. THOMAS NJ. MILES.

A tribute paid life well lived by
the Bristol Comm Press. Those
who knew Mr. Miles know that even
more might be said.
Respected, honored and crown
ed with the love of his fellow men as
few men are in the more modest
walks of life, the Rev. Thomas NJ.
Miles passed to his eternal reward
on Monday, Jan. Goth. His death
brought to a close a beautiful, help
full, earnest and sincere life. He
was more than the preacher who
has a message to deliver. He was
kindly, sympathetic, tolerant,
generous man with a broad intel
lectaul outlook that was reinforced
with human interest that brought
him into touch with all sorts of
people and enabled him to under
stand their diversified interests,
their many temptations and weak
nesses, as well as the strength and
beauty of their lives. He under
stood people, their hopes and am
billions and aspirations and their
struggles. He took a kindly inter
est in them. He gave freely of
sympathy and cheer and kindness.
Always he held out the helping
hand with a word of encouragement
and hope that helped sustain the
faith of many Respondent man
and woman. He was genuinely
charitable. He could not abide
bigotry or narrowness of any sort.
He was a Christian gentleman in
the truest sense. He accomplished
a noble work in the quietest pos
sible way and will live in the affec-
tons Of thousands of people as
long as their YES endure. -Bris-

BEGGAR GAVE TEN FOR ONE
Beautiful Story Emanates from Salt
Lake City.

Salt Lake City, Utah.-When 1t be-
came known that a man standing at
Second South and Main streets, who
was supposed to be beggar, was Civ
ing a dollar to every person who re-
sponded to his appeal for aims, there
was a quick opening of purses and a
scramble to aid the needy. The man
was soon out of dollars.
The supposed beggar appeared at
the corner about o'clock at night.
He stopped a number of men, plain
lively asking for the price of meal.
Some passed on without noticing him,
and others roughly told him to go to
work or hunt up the free soup kitchen.
At last one man gave the man dime.
Immediately the mendicant drew out
dollar.
Take this" he said. 'You gave me
dime. I'll give you a dollar"
When the urchins about the corner
learned what had happened they flock
ed to the rich beggar and showered
him with offers of assistance.
In very few minutes the mans re
sources were exhausted, and he de
parted, humming to himself.
