LEAGUE FAULTS
Troy Conference Urges Their Correc-
rection while Upholdins Work
Lay Electoral Delegates.

Sara&oxa. N. ", April 12-The Anti
Saloon League should make several
changes In its methods. in the opinion Of
the Troy Methodist conference, now In
session here, which to-day adopted a re-
port disnissing the majority of several
CHARGES made against the league by tho
REV. Geo. E. stockweli Of Fort Plain. a
former prohibitionist candidate for COVER
nor and a member Of the conference.
The conference holds that the league
has faults which 1t should correct Mt
once, and strenuously. but there Is not
sufficient evidence to condemn the
league as an Ineffective or false agent
in temperance reform.
Tho conference recommends that since
the policies Of the league and the allied
temperance forces OF the State Of New
Y ork are Incompatible no promises OF
mutual legislative support should be
made, that the league should vigorously
ascertain the standing Of its representa-
tives and more rapidly than in the past
rid itself of inefficient and untrustworthy
workers." and calls for cessation In
public statements and Its official organs
of needless criticisms OF other temperance
organizations
The conference also recommends a
State headquarters at Albany.
The following conference trustees
we're elected this afternoon: Charles
McKernon. Pittsfeld. Mass; the Rev.
J. c. Simmons, Troy; and the Rev
Fred L. Decker. Saratoga Springs.
The lay electoral conference elect
ed delegates to the general confer
ence as follows: B. r. Carey. Science

PEPsiN DOES NOT CURE IND
GESTIoN.

Kidney diseases increase 16I per
cent in the City of Chicago in one
generation.
One of the most appalling facts
brought to light by the statistics of
the United States Census bureau, is
the increase of kidney and bladder
diseases. In less than one generation
these dreadful ailments have in
creased 1877 per cent in the City of
Chicago and in much the same ratio
in other parts of the United States.
These diseases arise almost wholly
from the process of straining the
human machine. They may be due to
over feeding or under feeding, to ov-
err work or under work, in fact to any
of those irregularities in living which
the average man or woman subjects
the body to.
Every three minutes the entire
blood supply passes through the kid
neys which act as very fine filters
separating the waste from the pure
blood and eliminating It through the
bladder.
During the years of hard work the
kidneys break down causing bladder
troubles, Bright's diseases, backache
and a dozen other ailments which al
most every one knows only too well
The weakness will first be noticed o.
pains in the back, scanty or too fire
