BACkACHE Is
A DANGER SIGNAL
Kidney Troubles, Bladder
Disorders, Rheumatism,
and Serious Diseases
Follow.

Te lkindneys get clogged up. the same
as the bowels do. Then they become
sluggish, and only filter or strain out a
part of the waste or poisonous matter,
all the rest remaining in the blood and
poisoning the system.
AS soon as you notice the first indi-
cations OF backache, pains in the sides,
Dr. aches around the kidneys, or if the
urine is light and pale, dark coiored,
cloudy, thick, or has an offensive odor,
surns, is scalding or irregular in pas
sage, take a little Croxone three times
a day and end these thoubles before
they become more serious.
There is no more effective remedy
known for the prompt relief and cure
of kidney, bladder troubles and Theu-
nlatism, than Crozone. 1t soaks right
into the kidneys through the walls and
lining: cleans out the clogged up pores;
neutralizes and dissolves the poisonous
uric acid and waste matter that lodge
In the joints and muscles, and cause
those terrible rheumatic pains. and
makes the kidneys filter the poison
from the blood and drive it out of the
system.
A few days use of this new scientific
preparation is often all that is ever
needed 10 end the worst backache, or
overcome the most annoying urinary
disorders.
You will find Croxone entirely differ
ent from other remedies. 1t is so pre-
nared that il is practically impossible
20 lake il without results. An original
nackage costs but a trif1e, and all drug
eists are authorized to return the pur-
chase price If it should fail in single
.ase.-AdVt.

RUSSIAN EMBASSY
ACQUIRES NEW HOME
Pays Half-MiIIion For House of
John Hays Hammond on
Avenue of Presidents.

The Russian embassy, whose Offices
are located at 1917 l. stret northwest.
and whose residence is at the north
west corner of Seventeenth and X
streets northwest. has recently pur-
chased the palatial home of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Hays Hammond, at 1125 Ave
nue. of the Presidents. This figures as
by far the largest realty transaction
in residence properties ever known in
the city. The price paid, it is said,
was $4,000.
The handsome place on the Avenue of
the Presidents is better known as the
Pullman home, as it was erected for
Mrs. George B. Pullman, widow of the
well-known car builder Last Nav IL
was sold to Mr.. and Mrs. Hammond
for a figure said to be $315, 200, and was
recorded at the time as the largest
residence transfer ever tailed up in
the District.
Negotiations were under way at that
time by the embassy with the Russian
government for an appropriation to buy
the property. The figure demanded was
$4,000. 1t was recently granted by
the Russian duma-
. The palatial home has never been oc-
cupied. Mrs. Pullman never lived there,
despite the fact that the home was
built for her, and the Hammonds, when
it was decided that they would sell the
property in case the appropriation was
forthcoming, had decided to take up
their home In New York. Immediately
after their purchase of the place they
went to their summer nome, at Glouces-
ter, Mass.
The mansion is exceptionally well fit
ted for an embassy. There is a large
reception hall finished in light gray,

WASHINGTON TIMES BUREAU,

As the result of efforts of the cham
ber of commerce. the mail service be-
tween Alexandria and lower river
points on both shores will be greatly
improved at once. Some months ago
the chamber took up with the Post
office authorities the question of the di-
rect delivery of mail to and from the
steamers of the Maryland, Delaware
and Virginia Railway, which operates
a line of boats from Washington to the
mouth Of the Potomac. Attention was
called to the fact that mail from the
South for this city was carried to
Washington instead Of being put off at
Alexandria. and in consequence was
delayed from twelve to eighteen hours
in delivery. Orders for merchants were
not received in time to prepare ship
ments for the next boat going down
the river, and in consequence much
business was being diverted from this
city.
AS result of the complaint the Post
office Department has instructed the
local office to arrange for a direct de-
livery here to and from the boats OF
the river line. The necessary appropri-
alton has been provided for the extra
work.
A petition has been forwarded, with
the recommendation of Postmaster
Eggborn, from the residents of Rose
mont, asking that the city delivery be
extended to that suburb. 1t is probable
that the request will De granted.
A marriage of much interest in Alex
andria and northern Virginia took place

came the bride of Howard w. Smith.

nesses being present 1t was performed

tor of the church. The bride is a charm

mired. Mr.. Smith is an attorney and
