A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

It is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more at
~tention as they control the other or
gans to a remarkable degree and do a
tremendous amount Of work in re-
moving the poisons and waste matter
from the system by fltering the blood.
During the winter months especial
ly, when we live an indoor life. the
kidneys should receive some assist
ance when needed, as we take less ex-
ercise, drink less wafer and often eat
more rich heavy food, thereby forcing
the kidneys to do more work than Ma
ture intended. Evidence of kidney
trouble, such as lame back, inability
TO hold urine, smarting or burning,
brick-dust or sediment, sallow COM
.plexion, rheumatism, may be weak or
irregular heart action, warns you that
your kidneys require help immediate
ly to avoid more serious trouble.
An herbal medicine containing no
minerals or opiates has the most heal
ing influence. An ideal herbal COM

OFF THE TRACK
Blocks Traffic of Rapid
Transit Yesterday.

Engine 1888, of the Baltimore &

BILE distance before Engineer Miller

Vile had to use the ~westbound track
for some time until the wrecking
crew put the locomotive back on the
rails again. The train was bringing

dangerous grade at Crooke's crossing,
Great Kills.
