HOW GAN

Here are some figures from the best
sources possible that ought to set you
to thinking II you have kidney disease,
Dr. Loomis of Bellevue Hospital states
from clinical observations and a largo
number of autoposies at Bellevue that
ninc-tcnths of men and women over 10
have Bright's Disease In some form
See Denver Medical Times, December.
1908, y. 3Oi.
And the census shows that over nine
tcnths OF all the deaths from kidney
disease the last census year were really
due to Brights Disease. viz, $4,000 out
of G3,O0O.-See u. 4. Census for 1900.
Although DIR. Loomls Is an authority
and II is prcsumptuous, yet we cannot
believe with him that nine-tenths OF all
people over 40 have Brights Disease Wo
think he would have been nearer tho
facts II he had said that nine-tcnths OF
all people having kidney trouble have
Brights Disease. for the census figures
cannot be denied and show conclusively
that nine-tenths Of all the dead from kid
nsy troubles had Bright's Disease.

But II does seem to me that out Of

ought to be some way OF saving some

Government has revenue OF SO
much. II is problem for the FL

Early Yesterday morning the navy ofii-
cials sailed forth In the tug Vigilant to
meet the visitors. and at the same time,
as Is his custom when a liner appears in
port, Chief Boarding Oncer Stephens
started out In the revenue tug Golden
Gate.
But unlike ordinary trips. he went armed
with instructions to pass the admiral and
his party into this port free of duty and
the petty annoyances which less distin-
gufshed travellers must endure. The navy
tug proved the faster, however, and when
stephens arrived Capt. Eberie had made
on with Admiral Uryu, his wife and bag

the representative OF another arm of the
government. which was seeking to do
honor to the famous visitor.
There was nothing for the official rep

but report to Washington. Both did SO
and the outcome is awaited with interest.

WOODBRIDGE. Va. May 22.-Residents
of this section of Prince William county

lent death of William Metzger. seventy
nine. years of age.
The corpse was found on the tracks OF
the washington-Southern railway, about

quest held over the body yesterday the
jury returned verdict which did not
state the cause of death, part of the ver-
dict reading:

was run over by train before he was
killed or not.
The open verdict of the jury impaneled
by E. " Sanborn. acting coroner, coupled
with suspicious of foul play, 1t is believed
will mean that the death is to be more
thoroughly investigated 1t is the general
belief, however. that Metzger was killed
