Social conditions in this suburb are

the main question, namely, that the
success and prosperity Of every COM
munity depends upon the faithfulness
with which it's citizens adhere to the
requirements of the moral law, not
only in their business, but in their
amusements and recreations. Our
recognition of these principles &C.
counts for the fact of the Heights

WHAT The KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Heaps 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, wnen unhealthy some part
of this impure matter is lett in the
blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms-pain in
the back, headache, nervousness,
hot, dry skin, rheumatism. govt,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight
and hearing, dizziness, irregular
heart, debility, drowsiness, dropsy,
deposits in the urine, etc. But if

RECIPE WHICH OLD
PEOPLE WILL Value
Simple Home Prescription Is Recon-
mended for Weak Bladder and
Kidneys.

This is simple home recipe now
being made known in all the larger
cities through the newspapers. It
is intended to check the many cases
of rheumatism, kidney and bladder
trouble which have made so MANY
cripples and invalids and weak
lings of some of our brightest and
strongest people.
The druggists here have been
notified to supply themselves with
the ingredients, and the sufferer
will have no trouble to obtain them.
The prescription is as follows:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce, and Compound Syrup Sarsap-
arilla three ounces. Mix by shak-
ing we'll in a bottle. The dose is
one teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
Recent experiences,even in severe
hospital cases, prove this simple
mixture the remedy for rheumatism,
because of its positive action upon
the eliminative tissues of the kid
neys. 1t compels these most vital
organs to filter from the blood
and system the waste impurities
and uric acid which are the cause
of rheumatism. It cleanses the
kidneys, strengthens them and
removes quickly such symptoms as
backache, blood disorders, bladder
weakness, frequent urination, pain
full scalding and discolored urine.
1t acts as powerful stimulent to
the entire kidney and bladder struc-
ture, puts new life into them and
invigorates the entire tract.
All the ingredients states a we'll
known local druggist are of vege.
table extraction, making it a safe
and harmless prescription at any
time.
Those who suffer are accustomed
to purchase bottle of patent medi-
cine should not let little incon-
.venience interfere with making this
up.

Perish With Escape in Sight.
So rapidly did the flames spread
that many Of the audience were
caught and overcome before they
could reach the fire escapes. The
frenzied people fought with each other
to reach the front entrance, the prin-
cipal means Of exit from the building,
and struggling mass of humanity
was quickly piled around the doors
that led to the street. Flames over
took them and they were burned to
death almost in sight of escape. A
number of people who were attracted
by the cries of fire rushed from the
street to the opera house and up the
stairs to the second floor. They sue
ceeded In rescuing some, but were
forced to abandon the others to their
fate as the quickly advancing flames
drove them from the building.

from the windows in their mad rush
to escape the flames.
The work of removing the bodies
from the debris will be unusually tedi-
Gus and hazardous. When the rush
was at it's height the floor gave way,
precipitating many persons to the
basement and the bodies of these will
be found buried beneath the charred
timbers and tons of brick from the
ruined walls. In addition to the opera
house and Farmers National bank, Err
hans hardware house and the dwell
ings of George Rahm, Harry Penny

burned. The monetary loss will
amount to $4,000. .,-.. ~.&.-.~
The chief of the Pittstown fire de-

Of the disaster, says the first rush
toward the stage was caused by sew
eral men and women becoming fright
