SURE SIGN OF WEAKNESS Warning Not to Neglect
 Danger Signals
Valuable Recipe Given Which Anyone Can Prepare for Kidney and Bladder Trou- ble.

Take care of backache. A great many cases of kidney complaint are reported about here; also bladder trouble and rheumatism.
 An authority once stated that pain sin the back, Joins or region of the kidneys is the danger signal nature hangs out to notify the sufferer that there is something wrong with the kidneys, which should receive imme- diate attention. Only vegetable treat ment should be administered and ab- solutely no strongly alcoholic medi- cines, which are harmful to the kid neys and bladder.
 The following prescription, while simple, harmless and inexpensive, is known and recognized as a sovereign remedy for kidney complaint. The ingredients can be obtained at any good prescription pharmacy and any one can mix them: Compound Kar- gon. one ounce; Fluid Extract Dande- lion. one-half ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla. three ounces. Shake well in a bottle and take in teaspoon ful doses after each meal and at bed time.
 This preparation Is said to restore the natural function of the kidneys so they will sift and strain the poi sonous waste matter, uric acid. etc, from the blood, purifying it and re- lieving rheumatism. Backache will be relieved. the urine will be neutraliZed and cleared and no longer a cause of irritation. thereby overcoming such symptoms as weak bladder, painful. frequent and other urinary difficult ties.
 This is worth trying and may prove just what many people here need.

GREEN PEAS FROM VIRGINIA.

The firstgreen peas to get to the Balti-
more market reached there on the
steamer Essex last Friday morning
from the Rappahannock river. They
sold for 81 half barrel.
There were only six half barrels, and
they were of an exceptionally good
quality, the pods being large and
well filled for the time of the year. The
first peas generally go from this, Rap
pahannock, section and, as in this case,
bring good prices.
Some of the commission merchants
differ as to the outlook of the pea sea-
son, which lasts until about June 10.
Some think there will be large crop,
while others are of the opinion that
there will be hardly more than half a
crop.
Additional steamers of the Md, Del.
q Va. R'y. Co. have been put on the
lower bay routes, so as to get vegetables
to market early. One steamer came
into the Rappahannock last Saturday
with 5000 empty barrels, and made a
similar trip again Tuesday.
