There is no question about that
at all-for the lame and aching
back is caused by diseased con-
dition of the kidneys and bladder
1t is only common sense, any way
that you must cure condition
by removing the cause of the con-
dition, And lame and aching back
are not by any means the only
symptoms Of arrangement of the
kidneys and bladder. There are a
multitude of well-known and un-
mistakable indications of more or
less dangerous condition. Some of
these are, for instance: Extreme
and unnatural lassitude and weari-
ness, nervous irritability, heart ir-
regularity, nerves on edge," sleep
1essness and inability to secure
rest, scalding sensation and sedi-
ment in the urine, Inflammation of
the bladder and passages, etc.

A Complete Collection.

Several weeks will elapse, says an
exchange. before the public of Lon
don will be able to view the great
collection of Wedgwood ware which
has been presented by Isaac Faicke
to the British museum. This collec.
tion. comprising. as 1t does, about
400 pieces, some of which are pieces
of furniture decorated with Wedg
wood plaques. is 80 extensive that
the making OF the new show cases
and the Encouragement of the room
in which they are to be- placed are
likely to take some considerable
time. With the exception of that
at the Wedgwood museum at Etruria,
opened by the present directors of
the old firm of pottcrs, there is
probably no collection as complete
and thoroughly representative OF the
best type OF work produced by Josiah
Wedgwood as that which was formed
by Mr.. Faicke about half a century
ago.

New York Police Statistics Prove =
Most Lamentabie Fact.

A woman shoplifter who had passed
the Psalmist's allotted period. and
who had long record Of offenses be-
hind her, was sent to prison again the
other day, and In the printed accounts
much was made of her years. as II age
and misdemeanor were strangers. AS
a matter Of fact. among women, youth
and disdemeanor are strangers If, we
make the test Of the matter the fact
OF falling into the laws clutches.
More than half the women offenders
OF New York are classified in the re-
port OF the state prison commission
as "middle.aged or elderly women"
or the 6.644 women sentenced to the
Blackwells Island workhouse during
the last year, 3,463 were more than
30 years old. About one in Is Of the
number were legal minors. Disorder
ly conduct and public intoxication &C.
counted for all but few hundreds OF
the entire number.
There is really no surprise in these
figures, for the spectacle Of gray hairs
