The great majority OF men aud vo-
men at the age OF 5 years begin to
feel the first signs OF advancing age in
som form OF kidney trouble and
bladder weakness. Few are entirely
free from that tortuous disease, rheu-
1natism, which is not disease in it
self, but a symptom OF deranged func-
ton of the kidneys which have be-
come clogged and sluggish, failing in
their duty Of sitting and straining the
poisonous waste matter, uric acid,
etc, from the blood, permitting it to
remain and decompose, settling about
the joints and muscles, causing in
tense pain and suffering.
The bladder, however, causes the
old folks the most annoyance, espe-
cially at night and early morning.
\ noted authority in a recent article
stated that he has wonderful success
with the old-time vegetable treat
ment" He states: "Of sixteen cases
Of bladder troubles and rheumatism
which have been treated with this
treatment only one very complicated
case failed to fully yield to its re-
narkable influence. 1t is the most
harmless treatment I have ever found
to clean the system of rheumatic poi

What he terms "old vegetable treat
ment'' consists Of the following simple
prescription, the ingredients which
can be obtained from any good phar

Lecture at College Assembly Hall.

DR.. Donaldson of Denver, deliver
ed a lecture on Friday evening in the
Assembly Hall. He was introduced
by DR.. Boone in a very apt speech,
recalling many "reminiscences of their
life long friendship, especially of
their early boyhood days in
Pennsylvania. DR.. Donaldson
replied by portraying his early
room mate, DR.. Boone, and his
circulating efforts, from early
morn to late at night, to learn to
play the violin.
DR.. Donaldson took as the theme
for his lecture, 1.-THE Mission of Mus
ic." He began by saying that every
thing had a mission peculiar to it.
self, all the arts were intended to por-
tray something. He continued, say
ing music was a gift from God, and
was called the art divine. In history
we find that music has a lace in
every nation. and it should have a
place in every home. 1t was the
youngest art of all, yet had been in
existence since the stars were placed
and all nature had beer put in har-
mony. 1t was the art Of the people
as 1t was not necessary that one
should be very rich to buy a copy of
the masters inspiration and take 1t
home and have IT. teach its lesson
thru the execution of it,. Music is an
Interpreter OF life; all nature appeals
to those who will tune their ears in
accord as one majestic chorus send
ing up its song of praise to the inf
mite. We should train and tune our
lives, SO that all jars and discords
would slip away and life would be
harmony and when We came to die
our souls would sail away upon 1.-THE
tides of music's golden sea setting
toward eternity"
During his discourse DR.. Donald
son gave us glimpse into his store
of wit and humor and many beauti-
full word pictures. He is a very en-
gaging speaker and held his audience
to the end. Very appropriately, at
the beginning of the lecture the
young ladies' glee club of the College
gave some very pretty selections.

say of Tex Richard:
Tex Richard, promoter of the
Gane-Nelson fight In Goldfeld and
owner of the famous Northern saloon
Is nearly broke. He went against
every kind of investment game, with
the exception of the faro banks he
conducted, and the business depres-
sion swamped him. His policy Of
economy caused him to sell the
Northern and other properties in
Goldfield. while at Ely, where he
runs a large hotel. retrenchment is
also begun. The Northern saloon,
besides being the greatest gambling
house in Nevada, is said to have the
largest bar trade. Fifteen hundred
dollars in one hour is the record of
the bar cash registers. Richard
walked into Goldfeld when he first
visited the camp. Several times since
he has gone out in special trains.
His friends say he will make enough
money out of copper If the price again
becomes normal to buy a home on
Fifth Avenue"

tier like Tex Richard, and while he
may be having a bit of hard luck at
present, he's the kind that can't have

Another Move for Prohibition.
The Northwestern railroad has
gone dry. twenty-five thousand en-
ployes of that system have taken
their last drink. The pledge that had
been circulated for signatures during
December last went into effect with
the opening of the new year. A large
majority of the employees of the en-
tire system have boone teetotalers.
Not content with this, the leaders of
the movement hope soon to have
every man employed from end to end
of the 1000 miles of road a signer of
the pledge. The temperance move
ment of the Northwestern line is the
result of plain. economic business
principle. 1t is voluntary on the
part of the men. The road was dis
eliminating against drinking men.
