You VIII Make No Mistake if You
Follow This Advice.
Never neglect your Kidneys.

Never neglect your kidneys.
If you have pain in the back, urin-
airy disorders, dizziness and nervous
ness, it's time to act and no time to
experiment. These are common
symptoms of kidney trouble, and
you should seek a remedy which is
recommended for the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills is the remedy
to use. 1t has cured many stubborn
cases in this vicinity.
Can Perth Amboy residents de-
mand further proof than the follow
ing testimonial?
Mrs Jane Clarke, 1877 Nelson
street, New Brunswick, N. J., says:
For over five years | have taken
Doan's Kidney Pills and I have
found them so beneficial that l
highly recommend them to other
kidney sufferers. | suffered terribly
from my back and was often so weak
that l could not stoop to pick up
anything from the floor. l did not
rest comfortably because of back
ache. After | took Doan's Kidney
Pills, my back became stronger and

FInErAEN CHASED Off"
THEIR BALL DIAMOND

"Cheese-it, here comes the COP"
was the cry that alarmed the Pro-
lection Hook and Ladder laddies
yesterday p. IN. while practfcing
baseball on the grounds in the real
of the high school. But, while it
wasn't a "copper" still the man who
appeared served the purpose, for it
was a member of the Board of Edu-
cation, and the stern order that base
ball be discontinued on the school
grounds was issued. The firemen
solemnly and sadly departed from
the stamping grounds after "Joe"
Hornsby's offer to~pay rent for the
Held was refused. If the Protection
players lose Sunday there's no doubt
but that the commissioner will come
in for a share of the blame.

BILL REYNOLDS
WILL REMAIN
To Play Pivot Position for
Riverside Quintet.

Captain John McCreery, Manager
Dave Wilentz and other members of
the Riverside basketball squad want
it to be known that the article which
appeared in the sporting columns of
another local paper concerning the
displacement of "Bill' Reynolds is
wholly unfounded. Reynolds is still
considered by the Riversides captain
and manager one of the best ball
tossers in these parts and will ap-
pear in a "Rivie" uniform when the
aso opens. The only change in
the regular lineup of the Riverside
team for the coming months of bas-
ketball will be the replacement of
"Addie" Schantz, who expects to
take up a course at Stevens Prep"
In Hoboken. Several additions to
the team will likely be made.

Fish Tales.

Uncle Charlie Geiger, of Water
Witch, was out to Sandy Hook last
Sunday when the Seaside Club
caught a boat load of fish and
brought them ashore. Uncle Charlie
had the time Of his life, but now he
doesn't want to pay for some labor
that he engaged. He was glued fast
to one spot on the boat and Francis
Christianson had to take every fuke
off his hook, for which the boys say
he is entitled to a cent a fish. Uncle
Charlie refuses to tell how many
fiuke he caught, so the bill is still
unsettled.
4 most picturesque scene is to be
had by visiting any n of the Coney
Island fishing piers about 10 o'clock
at night. Fluke are running and
they always attract a crowd of fish
ermen, who take their families down
to the island and, while they are en-
joying the sights, the father fishes.
Along about $50 o'clock the family
begin to-arrive on the pier and coax
papa to 90 home, but that is the
time the .ish are biting the best, so
fhe mother puts the family to sleep
II the pier and tells the father all
about the fun they had.

 FOR SUBWAYS
NEW YORK BOARD OF ESTIMATE ADOPTS THE DUAL SUBWAY
 SYSTEM.

New York, May 25-By vote of 1a to the city of New York, through the board of estimate, at it's meeting yesterday afternoon approved the Mo Aneny report in favor of a dual sub way system. President Mitchell cast the three negative votes
 The action of the board of esti- mate is not legally binding, but is a moral pledge to the Interborough and the B. R. T. that the city will do its share to carry out the dual subway plan.
 In the course of the debate Mitchell gave McAneny the lie direct.
 It is a $325 GOO, 900 scheme, the larg- est ever financed by private corpora tions, or for that matter by the city itself except the Catskill watershed project, which will cost $161, 900, GOO. The city's share of the cost of the new subway is 6OO0O, GOO. the Inter borough's investment will amount to s1O6, ,OOO, 900, and the B. R. ITS DOT ton will be sS0,O00.00O. This i'm cludes 80, ,OO0, 600 for elevated road ex- tensions by the Interborough. The actual cost of new subways will be $2S9, ,372, 900.
