minutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
Of impure matter daily, when ur.
healthy some part OF this impure mat.
ter Is left In the blood, This brings
on many diseases and s, mptoms-
pain In the back, headache, nervous

INTERESTING OLD PAPERS
IN THE POSSESSION OF M. F. s.... H0ULIHAN.

We have been loaned by M. F. Hou- lihan a number of old newspapers which have proved most interesting. Among the number are The Daily Herald published at New Haven on May l6, lS40, during the "Tippecanoe and Tyler, too," campaign. At the head of the editorial page is the picture of log cabin with a barrel labeled hard cider" standing in front From the tone of some of the editorials we should judge that all the hard cider was not in the barrel. In the death notices in this number we find, Tn Newtown, MT John Nottingham, a student in the Academy of that place, from the South. His death was occa- stoned by blow received in the palm of his hand from the butt end of a whip, which brought on the lockjaw."
 In the New York Price Current is- sued January 3, 1929, we find that in those "good old days" the people paid as follows: For coffee, 14a15c per ID. for the best; teas, from 2Sc to $l.25 per ID. ; wheat. $l.60 per bushel rum, New England, !32 to 35c gal. {; tobacco, 8 to 12c lb. .-..
 In the Connecticut Herald of Janu- ary Il, 1885, we find numerous adver- tisements of lotteries, three of them advertising prizes aggregating $50,OOO at one drawing, which goes to show that the "old boys" took a flyer occa- sionally. We find in this same paper an advertisement stating that some one had stolen horse from Elizur Mitchell of Southbury, who offered reward of $20 for horse and thief or S1O for either"
 The Columbian Register has this curi- ous advertisement Tn it's issue of May 25, 1880: Zone Cent Reward-Ran away from the subscriber, John Wood ruff, an indented apprentice to the tail bring business, is about r years of age. Whoever shall return said ap- prentice shall receive the above re- ward, but no charges paid. William D. Beardsley."
 The most rare of the papers is the copy of "The Herald of Freedom" Printed every Wednesday morning a few rods south of the meeting house in Bethel by Phineas T. Barnum. " Phin- eas was evidently vitriolic writer for the thunder roars and the lightning flashes in what appears to be attacks on everything except the Universalist church. .,..
 This batch of papers contain much interesting reading, including presi- dential letters, a letter from J. Feni- more Cooper denying the statement that a British officer had prevented George Washintgon from being shot. beside great many advertisements that make interesting or profitable reading. Mir Houlihan no doubt would be pleased to show the papers to any one interested.
