SUDDEN DE ATH
Caused bv Disease of the Kidneys

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
we'll known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased. arterial tension is
increased and the heart functions are
attacked. When the kidneys no longer
pour forth waste, uremic poisoning
occurs, and the person dies and the
cause is often given as heart disease, or
disease of brain or lungs.
1t is a good insurance against such a
risk to send 10 cents for large trial

covery of DIR. Pierce. Also send a
sample of your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DIR. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel,

any remedy equal to Vinol to create

It's the tonic iron, the medicinal
eXtractives of fresh Gods liver with

Ninol, that makes it so successful in
enriching the blood and creating
strength for rundown, nervous, over

the money in every such case where
it fails to give satisfaction.

NOT in BIG MEET
Enola May Be Only Entry at
Jersey City Next
Week

Harrisburg will not be represented
at the Pennsylvania Railroad Y. NJ
c. A. system meet at Jersey City. Feb
ruary IS. This announcement was
made to-day by Horace Geisel, physical
director of the local association. The
only contestants from this section will
be the Enola pocket billiard team, to
be picked tonight
Local athletes have been eliminated
in all contests in which they partici-
pate, bowling. basketball and pocket
billiards. Entries could be made in
the swimming and track events, but
Physical Director Ge.sel said to-day he
had no athletes in form and that his
swimming stars were too busy in other
sports to get away. Another reason is
lack of funds to pay expenses of those
who are not yet eligible for free trans
portation.
Enola's representation depends on
a decision of the athletic committee on
a protest. Enola was scheduled for a
match with Camden pocket billiard
stars last week. The Jersey team did
not show up. Enola claims a victory
by forfeit. If this claim stands
Tyrone and Enola will meet at Jersey
City. Camden, it is said, wants to meet
Enola in semifinal contest before the
regular meet.

Authorities are agreed that the kid

1t is their function to filter the impur-

reason they fail to properly perform
this work, the poisonous waste is
forced back into the blood and car

crystals are deposited in the joints and
muscles where they don't belong and
where their presence is soon felt. The
blood goes sluggish and poignant
pains and aches begin to shout warn
ings that something is wrong.
If you have a lame, aching back,

MAIL PAY BILL

Emphatic Denial to Chairman
Morris Charges; Mistaken
Ideas
Special to rho Telegraph


Washington, ID. c., Feb. Ire
plying to the charges made yesterday
by Chairman Moon, of the House of
Representatives Post Office Commit
tee, that the railroads were carrying
on a lobby against the railway mail
pay legislation urged by the Post Of
flee Department, Ralph Peters, chair
man of the committee on railway mail
pay, representing the railroads, to-day
said:
I'VE absolutely deny Chairman
Moons accusations. We have no
lobby. But we are making a plea to
the country in a fight for our very
existence against the mistaken ideas
of certain men in Congress, who feel
that they have the right to do what
they please with the property of 9TH
ers, regardless of what the conse-
quences may be.
"The House Post Office Committee
proposes a law that will give the Post
Offlce Department the right to name
the rates and all conditions of service
FOR handling the mails, and that will
compel submission to its orders by
confiscatory fines.
The purpose OF this bill-the Moon
bills to enable the Post Office De-
partment to carry on a commercial
transportation business under the
guise of parcel post. This will de-
plete the freight revenues of the rail-
ROADS, burden their passenger trains
with heavy freight, and will give them
less for carrying the traffic than the
Interstate Commerce Commission al
lows them for similar service on
freight trains.
When such things are being done
1t Is absolutely necessary for the rail-
roads to fight.
The railroads of this country are
racing unfair competition and con-
lscatlon, and are united in protest
against 1T. We have argued and plead
with the House Post Office Committee
against such injustice. but in vain.
The railroads are owned by peo-
pie who are entitled to as much con-
slderation as any class of citizens,
There is no reason why their prop
erty should be taken from them under
the mistaken idea of benefiting some
other class"
