That Lame Back Means
Kidney Disease
And To Relieve The Lame And Aching Back,A
You Must First Relieve The Kidneys

There Is no question about that at
all - for the lame and aching back is
caused by diseased condition of the
Kidneys and bladder. 1t is only com.
mon sense, any way - that you must
cure condition by removing the cause
OF the condition. And lame and aching
back are not by any means the only
symptoms OF arrangement OF the kid
aeys and bladder. There are multi
tude OF well-known and unmistakable
indications OF more or less dangerous
condition. Some of these are, for In
stance: extreme and unnatural lassi-
tude and WEAKNESS, nervous irritability,
heart irregularity, NERVES on edge,
sleeplessness and inability To secure
rest, scalding sensation and sediment
in the urine, inflammation of the blad-
der and passages etc.
These symptoms are, as stated, Ma
lures unfailing and unmistakable war
ming of more desperate and fatal condi-
tions that may soon result. AS you
value your health your peace of
mind and comfort of body do not
neglect these symptoms. Some of the
most dangerous complications known
to medical science result from neglec-
ted diseases of the kidneys and bladder.
DeWitt's Kidney and Bladder Pills
are an exceptionally meritorious rem
edy for any and all affections or diseased
conditions ofthese organs. These Pills
operate directly and promptly and
their beneficial results are at once felt.
They quickly regulate, purify, slim
ulate, and effectually heal and restore
the kidneys, bladder and liver, to per-
feet normal and healthy condition -
even in some of the most advanced cases.

A PRESBYTERIAN MINISTER
sTARTLEs DUBUQUE MEET
ING BY VIEWS.
THERE'S A REASON
HIS NAME Is BUSCH
Dubuque Presbytery Discusses Pastors
Surprising Declaration and Some
Members Favor oustins Preacher
With the German Name-News Of
tho State.

Special to Times-Republican.
Dubuque, April 24.-Declaring that
he could see no harm in little drink
and that mug of beer had been his
strength when all else failed Rev.
August Busch, pastor of the Presbyte-
rian church at Sherrills, exploded a
bomb at the closing meeting of the
Dubuque presbytery that for time
almost caused a panic among the
brethren.
The rather startling declaration was
made when the presbytery instructed
the delegates to the general assembly
at Denver, in May, to give their sup
port to any temperance or prohibition
movement that might come before the
association. The presbytery, with the
exception of one, Rev. Mr.. Busch, IA
vored the resolution, and when he
arose the speech he made dn favor of
indulging in a socialble drink would
have earned for him the en1nity of
Carrie Nation and her followers.
Airs His Convictions.
Rev. MIR. Busch is strong speaker,
and with all the strength of his being
he poured forth his convictions, which
in short were that man ought to be
privileged to take a drink. or two
drinks, if he pleases
I'D fight the rotten saloon to the
last breath I had,'' said Rev. Mr..
Busch, "but can't see and never could
see any harm in a mug of beer, and /
intend to have mine. A bottle Of beer
has been the strength of more than
one person when in a weakened condi-
ton, and I'd vote for no law that was
going to deprive them Of it. Look at
John Calvert, didn't he drink? Look
at John Wesley, didn't he drink? And
Not one will say they were. Look
at the hundreds of others, good men,
who in their day, took their glass just
as do today. These are my honest
convictions, brethren. Put me out If
you will, but they are my honest con-
victions."
Question Of Right or Wrong.
Rev. Frank Schroeder, formerly OF
this city, now pastor of the Presbyte-
rian church at Prairieburg, said that
mans convictions were his own and
ought to be respected, but said that If
Rev. Mr.. Busch was wrong and it could
be proven beyond a doubt that he was
it was up to the church to put him out
and then if on the other hand he
thinks he is right, then It's up to him
to carry it to the general assembly.
No further action was taken in the
matter, and the resolution favoring
prohibition was unanimously carried
