ARE YOUR KIDNEYS
 0VERW0RKED? ?
How They Fight Uric Acid

If you eat meat, then you have uric acid iu your blood. And uric acid is the chief cause of weak kidneys. The kid- neys do their utmost to free the blood of irritating uric acid, but it is a losing fight for them. They become weak from the overwork. They get sluggish; ;. the elirninative tissues clog and thus the work of Altering the blood is performed very poorly and the waste is retained to poison the entire system.
 When your kidneys throb with a dull ache, when they feel like Jumps of lead when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, tired feel ing, constipation and bladder disorders you can make up your mind that these troubles come from weak, sluggish kid neys.
 You can help the weakened kidneys and put them in good working order again by asking your druggist for about five spoonfuls in glass of water before break fast for a few mornings and the results will surprise you.
 Rhei1nasalts acts quickly without grip ing or nausea. It is delicious to take. It is uric acid solvent as well as saline laxative-delightfully effervescent.
 These famous salts are very inexpen- sive. Every one can profltably take a little Rheumasalts occasionally to keep the kidneys clean, working and efficient.

D. Jarvis, director of the extension department, was di- rected to arrange a list of the speak CTS, with dates and places, as soon as possible.

 Entrance was gained at the fish market through an open screen win dow which is in an elevated position and leads to the work or store room of the market. The window, which Is on the north side Of the building, had at one time iron bars running across the opening, but two of these had been missing for some time, and all that had to be done to gain entrance was to push the screen in. Thursday morn ing the money drawe was foundd open and $50 in silver was taken. Forty five cents in pennies which were in the drawer were not taken. Two ten and one five cent pieces were found on the floor where the cash register stands. Nothing more was disturbed in the market.
 At Hills grocery store entrance was gained through windows in the rear doors. The glass in the windows has for some time been broken and the space covered with boards nailed to the frame. When MT. Hill went to the -store on Thursday morning he found the boards broken in. Further inVes- tigation revealed the fact that the money drawer had been removed from the counter and taken to the rear, where it wa soverhauled and thrown aside. There was no money in the drawer and as far as accounted noth- ing was taken from the store The safe was not touched. fountain pen lying on the desk may have been taken, but this is not positively known.
 The iutruders gained entrance to Har6ers tobacco store by prying open the rear window. Two dollars in change was taken from the cash draw CT end about 25 pennies were not touched. Three checks made out pay able to the American Tobacco company whteh MT. Harder had placed in the register were taken and the envelopes iu which they were folded were found in the yard. None of the stock was disturbed. Mir. Harder has stopped payment on the checks, so that they are of no value.
 The burglars gained entrance to the Norwich clubhouse through an un- locked window, as no windows or doors were, found broken. The articles taken there were small alarm clock and a child's cup. The breaks have been re- ported to the police who are on the watch for the intruders.

 This action on the part of the com mission Is the result of the inspection of electric street railway lines in the state. on account of finding that no uniform system of signs concerning the operation of cars has been adopted by the various companies. This lack of uniformity creates confusion on the part of the general public desiring to board or alight from cars and, in some cases, a possible element of danger
