Backache Is Kidney-Ache
Weak Kidneys Weaken the
Whole Body.

The sharp twinge of pain in the
small of the back that strikes you
after any sudden twist or awkward
movement, tells of weak, sick, in
famed kidneys.
Men, women and children have
bad backs when the kidneys are
sick. Especially do old folks suffer
with bad kidneys, for the kidneys
are the hardest-wOrked organs OF
the body, and an active life often
wears them out before there are
any other signs of advancing age.
Learn the early warnings of sick
kidneys and then it will be easy to
take any trouble in the beginning,
and with Doan's Kidney Pills, to
make quick and lasting cure.
The common early signs OF weak
ened kidneys are backache, lame
back, rheumatic pain. neuralgia,
sharp pains when stopping or lifting
nervousness, irritability, failing eye
sight sallow, drawn features, dark
circles around the eyes, dizzy spells,
tired-out. dependency.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick,

OF the sleuth in connection with the
case. He was able to assure himself,

It would be nonsensical to suppose

presence.
"Griswold was down here to see
me about the case," the chief informed
him. He tells me you induced Mott

Britt returned. I've got him, Man

We'll, who's the theft" the chief
inquired tersely.
Britt averted his face to conceal
the unwonted agitation that had sud.
denly sprung up within him. A new
light cleaned in his eyes-a light not
called up by the excitement Of the
chase. The mere tracking of GRIM
mails was part Of the routine of his
life; he followed the course of his
trails Internationally, like a well-oiled
machine. But the contemplation of
saving human soul in distress, the
consciousness Of exercising his talents

The detectives hand slipped into

took the card, passing 1t over to the

PRESBYTERIANS
FILE PETITION
ASK THE APPOINTMENT OF RE.
CEivER FOR PUBLISHING
HOUSE PROPERTY.

NASHVILLE, Apr. 1.-The Presby-
terian church, U. S. A., filed petit
ton in the federal court Friday in
the case now pending between their
board Of publication and that of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church
over the publishing house property
OH Fourth Avenue, North, asking the
appointment of a receiver to take
charge of the property now being
neld by the Cumberland Presbyterian
church. J. H. Zarrecor, chairman of
the Cumberland Presbyterian board
Of publication, stated that they we're
trying to support their application
for receiver by the manipulation Of
figures showing a difference of prifits
between several years including a Pc
riod of about ten years, and by using
only q portion of the account the fig
ures show that the Cumberland Pres
byterIans are losing money Mr.. Ear
recor stated that fair statement of
the assets and liabilities will prove
that there is no ground for the appli-
cation for receiver, and that no
fears are felt as to the results. He
states further that this is mere ey-
idence Of the unfair and fraudulent
attempt of the Northern Presbyterian
church to wrest from the Cumber-
lands their property" The matter
will be looked into April and the
petition answered.
