X. F. Vinson. Water St, Louisa,
says: Whenever l have had a spell Of
kidney trouble or rheumatic twinges,
l have bought box of Doan's Kidney
Pills at the Louisa Drug Co.'S Store.
They have removed the pains from my
back and took the rheumatic twinges
from my limbs. My back has some
times been lame when | have done too
much lifting and | have been subject
to rheumatic twinges after taking
cold. The trouble has generally been
in my limbs, from my hips down. My
kidneys have acted too frequently,
bothering me at night by causing me
to get up too often. All of these
symptoms have disappeared after l
have used Deans Kidney Pills and l
have felt like a different person, being
strong and active"
Price 60c. al all dealers. Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidny Pills-the same that Mr.. Vinson

Fights Burglar
With Two Bullets
in His Abdomen

HOBOKEN, N. J.-Disregarding
two bullets fired into his abdomen
by a burglar whom he surprised in
his apartment early Sunday morning,
Frederick Ruckert, So, wealthy vice
president Of the Hoyt White Metal
company, groppled with the intdur-
err and was shot three times before
the bandit wrenched himself free
and escaped.
AS a result of his wounds, which
caused the loss of much blood, it
was said late today at st. Mary's
hospital that blood TRANSMISSION
would probably be the only menas
by which advantage could be taken
of his slender chance for life. The
TRANSMISSION operation, it was said,
will be performed tonight.

WANT THEATRE QUEUES
ABOLISHED AS MENACE

LONDON queues are a
danger to public health, according
to Sir William Milligan, eminent
British physician. Block-long lines
of playgoers, mostly women, incon-
venience traffic daily in Londan and
other cities.
II have seen a queue, largely COM
posed of women, quarter of mile
long, on particularly bad night,
and they got so cold that the actors
and actresses handed out to them
warm coffee and tea to keep them
warm. They are a danger to the
health of our mothers and wives.
They should be abolished.
A petition to do away with the
queues has been signed by 1900
playgoers.

WASH Atmosphere IN
LONDON-FIND DIRT Is
DEPOSITED BY THE TON

LONDON.-What may be unset
entifically described as washing the
atmosphere has now been carried out
continuously for several months
past in London, and with filter in
vented by DR.. J. s. Owens, one Of the
honorary staff of the meteorological
office, it has become possible to
measure dirt deposited from the at
mosphere.
Among other results of such in
vestigations has been the discovery
that London is by no means an unen-
viable first in the matter Of fog.
Rochdale, for instance, has rec
ord of over seventy-seven tons of dirt
deposited in a month over every
square mile. In comparison with
this the fifty-seven tons per square
mile deposited on the Thames en-
bankment is almost insignificant.
More drastic legislation for the
prevention of pollution of the at
mosphere will result from the ap-
pointment by the ministry of health
of committee to investigate the
subject.
Lord Newton is chairman and he
stated that one of their chief lines
of inquiry will be as to the present
legal position lin regard to pollution.
If it should be found necessary they
will report as to the advisability of
more stringent regulations.
A meeting of the committee held
yesterday decided that the press and
public should be admitted to it's sit
tings.
