A STEADY DRAIN.
Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole
Body-Make You Ill, Langu1d
and Depressed.

anu DSFA >>
Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage OF
life-giving albumen from the blood
into the urine, and the substitution
of poisonous acid that goes broad
cast through the system, sowing the
seeds of disease. Loss of albumen
causes weakness, languor, depres-
sion. Uric poisoning causes .rheu-
matte pain, nervousness, nausea,
cricks in the back, gravel and kinney
stones. The proper treatment is
kidney treatment, and the best rene
DIV is Doan's Kidney Pills. Great
Bamberg cures prove it.
R.M. Zeigler, living in the north
ern part of Bamberg, S. c., says: i
am recommending Doan's Kidney
Pills in the hope that others may use
them and be benefited thereby. l

for more than a year. The kidneys
were also badly disordered and at

learning of Doan's Kidney Pills, l

procured a supply. They have al
ready given me a great deal of relief.

Tramp Cured.

Johnstown, Pa, December f.
With one hand and both feet frozen
off as the result of ride of SO miles
on the roof of postal car on the fast
Manhattan limited which leaves
Pittsburg for Philadelphia and New
York, at 1885 a. m, a young man
who gave the name of Daniels
Sweeney, 1925 Germantown avenue,
Philadelphia, was discovered by the
train crew at Mineral Point, near
Johnstown, shortly after o'clock
tbs morning and rescued him from
his perilous position. After he was
put off in the yards at Pittsburg, the
young man, without knowledge of the
train crew, boarded the train again
and rode between the tank of the en-
CINE and the postal car. When the
train passed the track troughs" he
was saturated with water and al
most drowned. Then he crawled to
the roof of the postal car, remaining
there until the train reached Mineral
Point. He was discovered by the en-
gineer as he peered over the top OF
the car. The man was on his hands
and knees, stiff with cold.
AS the train was being brought to
stop, Sweeney slipped from his per-
ilous position on the roof of the car
and fell on top of the coal tank Of the
engine and from there he was taken
by the crew.
A company doctor was called to
attend the young man, who besides
being frozen had received bad cut
on his head from falling on the coal
tank. Later he was sent to the Me-
mortal hospital, where he lies in a
precarious condition.

FOR SELLING PARTRIDGE.
Three Parties Arrested and Fined in
Charleston.

On Friday w. ]. Hanlon, manager
OF the Charleston Hotel, Melcholr
StelHng, manager of the Palace Cafe'
and. J. E. Baker, steward OF the Ar
gyle Hotel, were arrested on war
rants sworn out in Charleston by
James Henry Rice, Jr., of the Audi
bon Society of South Carolina, before
MAGISTRATE O'Shaughnessy, charging
the defendants with violating the
State game statute which prohibits
the selling of quail or partridge.
Before Judicial Magistrate Baker the
defendants pleaded guilty and were
fined SIS each or five days in jail.
They promptly paid their fines.
State Secretary Rice, who has won
attention by arresting several milli-
ners in South Carolina for selling
non-game bird feathers in hat trim
mings. stated that he had been unable
to find any egret feather or other un-
lawful plumes in the windows of the
Charleston milliners, and had only
seen one egret feather in hat on the
street. This was worn by alady Whom
he presumed was stranger there.
MAGISTRATE Baker imposed light
sentence upon the deIenoants' DIS
these were the first cases against
them, The maximum fine is $50 or
thirty days in jail.
Mr.. Rice wears an official badge
which proclaims him representative
of the Audubon Society of South Car
olina. This badge is over the left
lapel of his coat. He does not work
secretly but enters restaurant or
millinery store openly and makes his
investigations. The three convictions
there Friday make the total number
secured by the society 107 for the
year.
Mr. Rice will devote considerable
attention to enforcing the law which
requires visiting sportsmen to get
a shooting license from the clerk OF
court that can be procured for $40.
There is a fine of 500 to which visit
ing sportsmen are liable for not hold
ing a hunting license and it is ac-
cumulative, according to Mr.. Rice,
who contends that it is possible to
impose the fine for every day that
follows the offence.
