KIRON, Oct. 21-Special-
(, The electric light proposition which
Kiron has been considering for some
time, has had a considerable backset
owing to the investigation Of the ap
pointed committee finding that the
source from which it would be sup
piled has not been giving satisfactory
service for some reason to towns they
are supplying at present. Why could
not the Electric Service Company at
Denison provide our town with lights
which we understand is giving its
patrons satisfactory service. if salts
factory service cannot be assured
from the source considered? A line
built from Denison to Kiron could al.
so furnish lights to our neighboring
town, Deloit, and surely prove pay
ing proposition to the Denison Light
Co., provided they are equipped with
sufficient power to assure satisfactory
service. Don't let us lay down now
after steps and consideration has been
taken but let us push the project and
secure lights if possible. ~. 81:

The appalling death rate from kid
Eney disease is due in most cases to the
fact that the little kidney troubles are
usually neglected until they become
serious. The slight symptoms often
give place to chronic disorders and the

If you suffer from backache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney secre-
tons are irregular of passage, do not
