| VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

1t is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to re-
markabe degree and do a tremendous
amount OF work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by FL
tering the blood.
During the winter months especially,
when we live an indoor life, the kidneys
should receive some assistance when
needed, as we take less exercise, drink
less water and often eat more rich heavy
food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do
more work than Nature intended. Evil
dence of kidney trouble, such as lame
back, annoying bladder troubles, smart
ing or burning, brick-dust or sediment,
sallow complexion, rheumatism, maybe
weak or irregular heart action, warns
you that your kidneys require help inn
meliatelyy to avoid more serious trouble.
Many physicians claim than an herbal
medicine containing no minerals or
opiates has the most healing influence.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as kidney and
bladder remedy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kimer & Co., Binghanton, N. Y.

New Capital in Last 10
Years

Boston, March 10.-Chairman How
ard Elliott of the New York, New Ha-
ven & Hartford Railroad said today
that the company was preparing
statement showing where every dollar
of the s175.000,000 of new capital rails
ed in the last 10 years has gone. This
statement, he said, was to be supple
mentary to the one recently issued by
j. p. Morgan & CO., in connection with
their handling Of New Haven Railroad
securities for the past 20 years.
Regarding the trusteeship for the
Boston & Maine, Mr.. Elliott said:
Il cannot discuss the matter in de-
tail, but l can say that we have for
warded an important statement to
Washington, which should be in the
hands of the attorney general today.
/ cannot answer as to whether we have
insisted upon five years or any other
specific period for the working out of
the Boston & Maine situation"
Former President Lucius Tuttle of
the Boston & Maine, and still direc-
tor in the company said today:
IF the attorney general viii be de-
cent, there will be no trouble about
receivership for the Boston & Maine,
but the New Haven will not stand
any two-year trusteeship."

Comb Sage Tea in
Hair to Darker 1t
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy,
thick with a mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

The old time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers treatment. and folks are
again using it to keep their hair a
good, even color, which is quite sensi-
BILE. as we are living in an age when
a youthful appearance is of the great
est advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the readyto- use
product called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" for about so
cents a bottle. 1t is very popular
because nobody can discover it has
been applied. Simply moisten your
comb or a soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time: by morning
the gray hair disappears. but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also produces that soft
lustre and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive; besides, pre-
vents dandruff, itching scalp and fall
ing hair.-Adv.

loved and received applause from
all. They were followed by the pastor,
Dr. Quimby, who thanked all for the
attendance and interest shown since

]. D. HAYES LOSES
HOME BY FIRE TUES
DAY---LOSS $500


The house owned by the Covill Es-
tate, kinderhook street, Randolph, was
practically destroyed by fire Tuesday
forenoon. The house was occupied
by J. d. Hayes and Mrs. Hayes was
working in the kitchen when she was
informed that the house was on fire.
The flames seemed to be all through
the house at once, and but little of the
furniture was saved. The Randolph
hose company was promptly at work,
but the blaze was difficult to get at,
though they managed to keep it in the
house where it started. The houses
near by were not damaged.
The house was story and half, and
the loss about $500. Mrs. Hayes had
an insurance of 5000 on the furniture.
The fire was so far advanced when
discovered that it was hard telling the
cause or where it started.

your hair and ruin 1t If you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to

way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it. then you destroy it entirely.
To do this. get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring: use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub 1t in gently
with the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gene. and three or
-four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop,
and your hair will be silky. fluffy, lus-
'trous, soft and look and feel a hun
dred times better. You can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. 1t is mex
'pensive and four ounces is all you
will need, no matter how much dan
druff you have. This simple remedy
never fails.-Adv.
