The greatest discomforts Of old age
are poor eyesight. deafness, lame

ills
Most often these troubles come
from a weakening of the kidneys.
The kidneys have heavy task dur
ing a long life of filtering the blood
and keeping the body free from the
irritating effects OF uric acid. Kidney
weakness usually gets little attention
and it is no wonder IL the kidneys
break down.
And when the kidneys are sluggish
and weak. there is little comfort.
Backache is likely to become con-
stant trouble, lameness in the morn
ing. pains when STOPPING or lifting.
restlessness at night, too frequent and
rainful passages OF the kidney secre-
tions, and persistent lansuor.
Rheumatic pains. stiff joints. dizzy
spells and weakness of sight and hear
ing are often due to the excess OF uric
acid in the blood. So are gravel and
stone, dropsy swellings OF the limbs
and extremities, heart weakness.

Drink Bill About $4,000.

II S safe TO say that the drink bill
OF Mason City does not exceed $50
600 for the fiscal year This city has
a 1910 population OF 1890. and that
would bring the percapita drink bill
at s2G7.
Mason City has prospered without
the saloon. This is accepted BY every.
one. Two years ago it stood second
among the cities OF Iowa in the per
cent OF population gain. and the re-
ports show that the tonnage OF pro-
ducts manufactured in the city and
shipped out exceed that OF any city in
Iowa. regardless OF size.
Also as a railroad center fex cities
in Iowa excel it. 50 that the general
claim that was once en,a sed upon
that manufacturing cities and rail
road centers could not exist without
saloons, is not true in local applca-
ton.
Mason City owns its waterworks
system, all the principal streets a
paved or under contract to be: it
maintains seven public schools, al
in splendid buildings. with seventy
four teachers, and among the five
banking institutions, one is the third
largest in the state
One-halt OF the population OF Ma
son City are members OF some Pro-
testant or Catholic church. and all
religious denominations have large
church buildings. with good congre-
cations and no trouble in de'rayin-,
expenses.
For two years there has been no
desire expressed to change the seem
ing settled policy OF the city on this
question
There are those who say that if a
ballot could be taken the saloon
would win out, but under the mulct
system this cannot he done. But
sentiment. as it more often finds ex.
preston here is that the no-saloon
system is as good, if not better. than
