VERY SIMPLE TEST.
To Find Out II the Kidneys are Weak
and What to Do.

There are more cases of kidney
trouble here now than ever before.
while recent reports show that more
people succumb each year to some
form of kidney disease than any other
cause.
When there is sickness, examine the
urine. Rheumatism is only a symp-
tom OF kidney trouble 1t Is nothing
more or less than excessive uric acid
In the blood which the sluggish, mac
tive kidneys have failed to sift out,
leaving 1t to decompose and settle
about the joints and muscles, causing
intense suffering; frequently resulting
in deformity often reaching the heart
when death ensues.
Pains across the back, frequent
painful and suppressed urination and
other symptoms of weak bladder are
not the only signs of kidney trouble;
many cases OF stomach disease, head
ache, pain in the heart, inactive liver,
etc, are but symptoms; the cause of
which can be traced to feeble clogged
kidneys.
A simple test of the urine is to void
a small quantity in a bottle or glass
and let it stand over night; next morn
ing, if there is a reddish, brick-dust
sediment, or white feecy substance
present, either consult some reputable
physician or take a good vegetable
treatment. The following prescrip-
ton is recommended highly in these
cases, and the sufferer can mix it at
home; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,
three ounces: Shake well and use in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime.
Where any of the symptoms enum-
Grated above are present, good results
are sure to follow Immediately the use
! of this simple prescription

NO SPECTATORS IN COURT
Partridge Pleaded Guilty to Killing
Ray coomer Of Greensboro Last
December.

Newport March 26.-Levi Partridge
of Glover pleaded guilty in Orleans
county court yesterday to murder in
the second degree, or manslaughter,
in the killing of Ray Coomer of
Greensboro last December, and was
sentenced to serve not less than two
years or more than three in State
prison at Windsor Mrs. Partridge
returned from parts unknown Thurs
day night and pleaded guilty to adul-
terry, on an information filed by the
States attorney, and received the
same sentence as her husband. Dur
ing the trial this case, all spectators
were excluded from the court room.
Mr.. and Mrs. Partridge were accom-
panied by the little child which they
had taken to adopt and which was a
witness of the tragedy. The innocent
prattle of the child seemed strangely
out of keeping with the court pro
ceedings
Coomer, who was about A years
old, had been intimate with Mrs. Part
ridge and last July he was lodged in
jail here on statutory charge. A
reconciliation between husband and
wife was effected and Partridge gave
bail for Coomer's release and warned
him to keep strictly away from their
home. Saturday, December 5, Part
ridge returned from drawing wood to
find the fellow with Mrs. Partridge
in the kitchen, and taking down a
shot gun he blew off one side of
Coomer's head, killing him instantly.
Partridge is about 95 years old while
his wife is somewhat younger. Fol
lowing the tragedy, Mrs. Partridge
took all the blame on herself saying
to her husband, Il brought you to it."

The woman in the case had known
Culberson before his marriage. She
insisted that he should have married
her, and after the wedding she sent
several letters to the wife, saying she
would kill him if steps were not ia
ken at once by one of the couple to
obtain a divorce.
When the father of the bride return
ed to the house his daughter was
missing. He found her in the shed,
her hands tied behind her back and
her clothing torn as if she had been
in a struggle. She was unconscious
and he carried her into the house. A
physician who was summoned found
she was suffering from carbolic acid
poisoning. She regamed conscious
ness at night and told how she had
been attacked after which she relaps-
ed into insensibility
The police believed at first that the
woman had committed suicide but
subsequent developments made 1t alb
soutely certain she was murdered.
The police also found in the house
several threatening letters that the
