What the Kidneys Do
THEIR UNcEAsING WORK KEEPS
Us STRONG AND HEALTHY.

Us OTRONG AND I1EALIdf.
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 mat
Ter daily. When unhealthy some
part of this impure matter is left
in the blood. This brings on
many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back headache !,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheu
matism, govt, gravel, disorders of
the eyesight and hearing, dizziness,
irregular heart, debility, drowsi-
ness, dropsy deposits in the urine,
etc. But if you keep the filters
right you have no trouble with
your kidneys.
John Kelly, living on Oak st.
Conway, Ark, says: Kidney
disease had SO shattered my health
that I was practically al invalid.
My feet were badly swollen at
times and l was so weak l could

COV,DONACHEY
NOT SURPRISED

Little Rock, March 9 Special.
So far as tests on the new state
capitol are concerned, Governor
Donaghey has dismissed the mat
Ter from his mind. He says he
has known for several years they
were not necessary, and the floors
were improperly constructed, and
that now all the people of the state
know it.
II have never been out placing
my reputation as contractor and
man at stake without knowing
what | was talking about, says
Governor Donaghey, and l was
fully advised on the new capitol
floors. 1t is only surprising the
floor tested had not fallen of its
own weight by the time the test
was made. There is no reason
Tor the cry of unfair tests being
made. We had only impartia.
engineers, who did not care whom
the verdict injured or assisted, and
they knew their business sufficient
ly not to make unreasonable tests.
There is no need CT further tests,
for the people know now l was
right in saying the floors were
faulty constructed, and it is the
same thing in other parts of the
building. The floor is now so
damaged by the tests that it can
not be used again, and the legis-
lature should make provisions to
60 ahead and put in good floors
and complete the building. l am
anxious to move my Office out
there and have a building which
will be credit to the state. +"

SOUTHER'S WORK
WAS SATISFACTORY
But Commercial Club Could Not See
the Way to Spend $500 Month
on Salary for Publicity
Man.

The question of securing a success
of the publicity department OF the
Commercial club will be brought up at
the meeting of the board of trustees
next Tuesday afternoon. According to
President Crawford, several applca-
tons are before the club for consider
alton, having been received prior to
the time Mr. Souther's services were
secured, and it is not improbable that
on of these will receive favorable ac-
ton.
the statement that there was no dis
satisfaction with the work which is be-
ing done by the department, the one
big question being that of salary. 1t
has been the feeling for some time that
the club could not afford to expend
$500 a month for that purpose, and
Mr.. Souther's successor will undoubt
edly conduct the campaign at reduc-
ton.
When the question of publicity
campaign was first discussed, it was
agreed that changes might have to be
made from the original intentions, and
the board of trustees evidently fel,
that a reduction in the salary of the
nublicity manager was one of the first
changes desired Mr. Souther will re-
main in charge of the work until his
successor is named.
