Bladder and Kidney Trouble

ATLANTA, Ga, June IA, 1909.
My son, who is now IL years old, has
suffered all his life with weak kid
neys which caused him to be unable
to retain his urine. We used three
packages of Jordan's Bladder and
Kidney Specific, which relieved him,
and he suffers in no way now from
such trouble. ,

NE LIKES KENNEWICK HIGHLANDS

Mr.. Osborne Russell, one of the
most successful fruitgrowcrs Of Fruit
vale, was a recent visitor to the
Highlands and gave the following
to the Yakima Republic on his re-
turn home.
I wouldn't place that country
second to Mob Hill of Yakima, l
would place it first. 1t has the
soil, the climate, situation and the
transportation facilities. In addi-
ton there is wonderful city there
at Kennewick, or perhaps two cities
l saw St. Paul and Minneapolis
grow from cities of less than 10000
people and there appears no more
reason for it than for a similar con-
dition on the Columbia.
From the point of view of seem
cry the Kennewick Highlands can
not be exceeded. There is won
derful view to be had. The soil is
a superior fruit soil, it will produce
early and give the quality. The
value is in the land and apprecia
ton is certain as that must be in a
great country. There are all the
elements there of growth. Maybe

BASKET BALL CAME

Last Friday night at Prosser the
kennewick High School girls play
ed their return game with the Pros
ser girls and were defeated by a
score of s to 0. Including those
who were attending court at Prosser
and those who went up especially
for the game our team was backed
by loyal set of rooters. The
spectators report that the game
was fiercely played from start to
finish. The Kennewick team was
handicapped by playing on new
floor and also by the absence of
Rosella Hamilton, the regular CEN
ter, from the game on account OF
injury in practice. The Kenne-
wick players were; Effie Oliver,
center; Jessie Folsom and Bernice
Griffeth, forwards; Georgia Staley
and Nellie Hoadley, guards.

F|GHT TING TUBERCULOSIS
MODERN VIOODMEN SOCIETY WILL
CONDUCT FREE SANATORlUM
FOR ITS MEMBERS

At the last meeting of the Execu-
tive Council of the Modern Wood
men Society, held at the headquart-
ers of the Society. in Rock Island
Ill.,, it was decided to conduct that
Society sanatarium, located at
Colorado Springs, Colo, for the
treatment Of members afflicted with
tuberculosis, free of all charge to
members.
The Modern Woodmen Society,
several months since, acquired l, $3.50
acres of land within seven miles of
of Colorado Springs, and has estab-
lished thereon an up to-date sana-
tarium, the tent colony plan being
employed. The first colony was
opened for the reception of patients
on Jan. 1, 1909. 1t is equipped to
care for so patients, to which numb
er admissions will lie limited for the
present.
The tents are octagonal structur-
es, with shinglc roofs, canvas sides,
hard wood floors on solid cement
! foundations, heated by 4 central
plant, equipped with all modern
conveniences, such as telephones,
etc, and each tent Will accommodate
one patient. An administration
building for physicians, nurses, din
ing hall, baths of ali kinds, etc,
stands in the center of the colony.
DR.. J. L. White, formerly Of the
Nordrach ranch sanatarium, the
medical director in charge, states
that only those consumptivc mem
bers who are durable, or whose lives
may be prolonged for a consider
able length OF time, will be admit
ted as patients.
The members and local Camps of
the Society have voluntarily con-
tributed to the Sanatarium fund
over SO 900 and at the last nation
al convention permanent tax OF
ten cents per member per year was
voted to the support of this work.
The last official Woodmen reports
show that during the years 1891
1907. inclusive, 14.5 per cent OF
the total mortality, or 5, 156 deaths
were charged to tuberculosis, and
that 1879 percent of the total in
surance losses in those years, or
So, ,O65 900, resulted from this cause
If the Woodmen Society, with its
exceptionally favorable mortality,
finds it to be Good business to
fight consumption in this way, why
why should not other societies find
it profitable from the viewpoint OF
business or benevolence?

BEAUTIFY SC CHOOl GROUNDS

There is rapid Y growing senti-
ment all over the country in favor
of beautifying sc h ool grounds.
Where it has been done with any
regard to taste and system the re-
suits have been most satisfactory.
There is everything to be said in its
favor. There is no merit, quite the
reverse, in having dilapidated build
ings and grounds covered with tall
grass and weeds. The effect of such
a condition upon the children or
district is anything but good. That
being so it naturally follows that
when this condition is changed so
that the grounds and buildings are
pleasing to the eye by reason of
their neat and attractive appearance
a justifiable pride is aroused and
with it many other good things.
Some leadership and ambition, a
needed amount of labor and a small
outlay of money are sufficient, with
good taste, to turn almost any eye
sore into that which is pleasing aud
beneficial. t
