traceable to kidney disorders.
Interested by this remarkable asser-
ton and desiring to acquire better un-
derstanding of the origin of the disease.
a prominent physician was recently in

troubles.
"To what do you attribute the great
destructiveness of kidney diseasel" was
asked.
1.-THE hold which the disease gains in
the body before the victim becomes aware
of his true condition, and the rapidity
with which it eats its way into the vital~
organs
"Woul' not the proverbial ounce OF

Much Conjecture as to How New England
May Change Complexion of the U. S.
Senate==Tuesday's Elections in Is
OF Massachusetts Cities.


Boston, Dec. S.-Whether the sena-
toriai elections. next month, id Maine,
New Hampshire, Massachusetts apd
Rhode Island will change the makeup
of the New England delegation to the
upper branch of Congress, which now
stands 10 Republicans and two Dem
ccrats, is daily becoming a matter of
increasing interest and speculation.
The Republicans maintain, that the
fall elections gave them control over
all four of the states, which will elect
senators in 1913 and that Obadiah
Gardner of Maine, a Democrat, and the
three Republican senators, who are re-
irving. Henry. +. Burnham of New
Hampshire. W. Murray Crane OF Mas
sachusetts and George p. Wetmore of
Rhode Island, will all have Republi-
en- successors.
The terms OF. Senators w. p. Dilling-
ham of Vermont, Jacob II. Galhnger of
New Hampshire and Frank y. Bran
degce of Connecticut do not expire
until 1915, while the other five New
England senators hold over until 1917.
The Republican legislative margin is
the largest proportionately in Rhode
Island, slightly less in Massachusetts,
narrows to 16 in Maine and to only a
few votes III New Hampshire with the
Progressiyes claiming to hold the bal
ance of power in the last two states.

IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
Legislature Closely Divided Between
Republicans and Democrats.

Concord \. H., Dec. S.-With the Leg
islature, on the face of the returns of
the November election. closely divided
between the Republicans and Democrats
and the Progressives claiming to hold
the balance of power. the United States
senatorship contest in New Hampshire
presents one of the most interesting prob
letns in many years.
Although the state went Democratic on
the naNenal tissues, the Republicans APP
,pareutiy gained the Legislature by a
margin of from II to II votes on joint
ballot This margin. however, is threat
ened by those Republicans having Pro-
gressive tendencies, II of whom met at
Manchester last week, and pledged them
selves TO act independently on the sena-
torshin The Progressive leaders state
that there are IL Republicans who will
act Independently.
The New Hampshire Senate of 1918 now
stands 10 Republicans. 8 Democrats, and
member, John w. S. loyal of Manches-
ter, who was defeated in the Democrat
ic caucus but was elected to the Senate
as Republican.
The Senate situation is complicated by
the fact that there are four vacancies to
be filled by that body If Senator loyal
votes with the Republicans that party
will have a majority of II on "a joint
ballot. Otherwise the Senate will be
deadlocked and the Republican majority
will be reduced to II, which is the number
of avowed Republicans. The
Republican candidates are from Gov.
Henry b. Quinby and r. w. Pillsbury,
and the Democratic candidates Henry F.
Hollis and Clarence f. Carr. Gov. Rob
ert p. Bass stands ready to enter the
race as a Progressive candidate.
The Legislature will meet on Jan.

matter of vacancies.
