ENDS BlCKlCHE And
KIDNEY DISORDERS
Croxone Helps Lifeless Organs
Regain Health, Strength
and Activity

1t is useless, dangerous and un-
necessary to be tortured with the
digging, twisting pains of back
ache or suffer disagreeable kidney
and bladder disorders when Crox-
one is guaranteed to promptly and
surely relieve all such misery.
Croxone masters these troubles
because it quickly reaches the
cause of the disease. 1t soaks
right into the stopped up, inactive
kidneys, through the membranes
and Innings; cleans out the little
filtering glands; neutralizes and
dissolves the poisonous uric acid
and makes the kidneys filter and
sift from the blood the waste and
poisonous matter that clog the
system and cause such troubles.
1t does not matter whether you
have but slight symptoms or q
chronic, aggravated case, 1t is
practically impossible to take
Croxone without results.
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trifle, and all drug
gists are authorized 70 return the
purchase price II you are not en-
tirely satisfied the very first
time you use it.

ALBANY, Sept. 25.-When the
impeachment proceedings were
resumed this morning 1t became
evident that the main issue
throughout would be whether the
contributors to the governors
campaign specified restrictions
concerning the manner in which
the money was to be spent. At
torney Bracket for the prosecu-
ton tried to have Jacob
Schiff's testimony that Sulzer
was at liberty to use the contri-
buttons as he chose stricken from
the record.
The assembly was scheduled to
meet tonight to consider further
the advisability of supplementing
the impeachment articles with
fresh accusations, but it was con-
sidered doubtful If there would be
a quorum. ~ ar
Attorney Bracket, for the
prosecution, tried today to have
Schiff's statement that Sulzer was
at liberty to use his contribution
as he chose, stricken from the
record. Attorney Marshall, for
the defense, naturally objected.
81 am not certain that the COM
mon law principle concerning lar
ceny doesn't apply in this case"
said Chief Justice Cullen. "If 1t
does, this testimony would be
proper. At any rate, ! shall let
it stand for the present, though
I may change my ruling later"

tifying. examined a check given
by Straus & Co., presumably as
a contribution to the governors
campaign fund, and said he
