Thursdays Livestock Market

Gamer cattle were steady, at the

all other grades were 10 to % cents
lower and hard to sell at the decline
Hardly within the history OF the
yards have worse conditions prevailed
than those which ruled the trade this
week.
Owing TO an over-supply of lambs
last week and want OF room to unload

refused to accept shipments OF lambs
and the run in this department was
very light Top lambs sold for $3.50

in light supply, but the demand was

unsatisfactory. The Chicago market

local buyers were hard to trade with.

The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the elin- inative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health.
 When your kidneys feel like Jumps of lead: your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach. or you have rheu- matism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take table spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your Kidneys will then act fine. This fam ous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for gene rations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys: to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is source of irritation, thus ending bladder dis orders.

The teachers of the schools Of the town had a special talk given for them by Dr. P. J. Cassidy, one of the town school board, at & meeting at Broad way school at 4 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon. His subject was the detec- tlon or the first symptoms of the con tagIous diseases which arc liable to crop out among school children.
 The doctor paid particular attention to diptheria, scarlet fever and measles, and spoke as well upon the symptoms ot Whooping cough, humps and other diseases so that his instructive talk of about an hour placed the teachers in possession of much accurate informa- ton that will be of service to them
 So far this year two cases of con tagious diseases have appeared among school children, one diphtheria. case in an attendant at the Hobart avenue school and one scarlet fever case in a pupil of the High street school. In this case the pupil had not been to school so as to expose anyone to the disease and it has not been necessary to take any action.
 But the Hobart avenue school has been closed this week on the order of the town health officer. It will be op- ened again on Monday. The child who has diphtheria, came down with it ls.et Friday and the school was at once ordered closed for @ week. It has been II hy cleaned and fumisated meanWhile

 In such cases as these, cities agreed to contribute their state aid money to be spent on the construction of permanent pavements, whether con- crete or of bituminous character, so tha& the roads were placed in ever so much better condition. The worst places have been attended to as rapidly as possible and this work is now being carried on as fast as we can secure the money and decide the best solution of the difficulty.

 Commissioner Bennett gives the fol- l lowing interesting information: Question What is the total mileage of roads built by you during your in- cumbency?
 The total mileage of roads built between February 26th, 1913. and De- tober 10th, 1914, is 313.33 miles.
