school building. which was complete
ly destroyed by fire at Christmas time,
will be replaced this ear by a 6ne
new $4,000 structure. This was de-

here. and not erect a new building
, this year. but this vas found to be
impracticable. An architect OF Minot

plans for the new building immedi-
ately. 1t is understood that a large

vided as we'll as a suitable auditorium.

who has been superintendent of he
city schools for the past four a
will return to his old home in Illinois
the coming year, but a new superin-

All the blood in the body passes thru
the kidneys every few minutes. This is
why the kidneys play such an important
role in health or disease. By some mys-
ferrous process the kidney selects what
ought to come out of the blood and
takes it out. If the kidneys are not
good-workmcn and become congested-
poisons accumulate and we suffer from
backache, headache, lumbago, rheu-
matism or gqut. The urine is often
cloudy, full Of sediment; channels often
get sore and sleep is disturbed ut night.
So it is that DR.. Pierce, of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute in Buffalo,
N. Y, advises wWashing the Kidneys"
by drinking six to eight glasses of water
between meals and then if you want
to take q harmless medicine that will

If you desire, write for free medical
