APRIL SHOWERS.

The azure skies grow darker.
The bright sun hides away,
All boys and girls go in
And cease their outdoor play.
The people outside hasten home,
Tho wind begins to rise,
And the cooling rain pours down
Out of cloudy skies.
1t patters on the window panes
1t waters thirsty flowers,
II rains upon umbrellas too,
These are April Showers.
1t pours upon the waves so high.
Upon the roughening seas,
And then, without warning, stop
And far away 1t fees.

Too much meat may form uric acid, which excites the kidneys; they become Overworked; get sluggish. ache and feel like Jumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated. and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinOus waste or you'll be real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kidney re- zion; you suffer from backache, sick headache. dizziness. stomach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu- Inatic Jwinges when the weather Is bad.
 Drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of lad SaIta: take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Gthia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to nor nal activity, also to help neutralize the acids in urine. so it no longer is a sourc ce of irritation, thus often ending bladder weakness.

TAO Fl. BRIDGE MOVED E Fl,
 ID NEW SITE
Engineering c a1cu1a- tions So Accurate that Alignment to Car Tracks Is Perfect.

Pittsburgh, Pa. Dec. 2o-A mon- ster bridge, TAO feet long. with two trestles 15O feet high. and weighine 200 tons, was moved bodily for a distance of 75 feet here recently, ana the workers who rode over inc structure in the morning, at its former location. rode over it again in the evening. but in-b between times the bridge had shifted position 75 feet.
 It was a feat of engineering. ou. the structure was relocated without a hitch, and engineers calculations were so perfect thar when the bridge was finally set on it's new piers it was in perfect alignment In every way with the street railroad tracks at either end.
 When the engineers and their gang" got ready to move the huge structure nnement merely cut the trolley feed wires at either end of the bridge, a few Italian laborers pulled up the rails at the bridge ends, and then a huge gong announced "a1l set" and the moving began.
 An imDrovised railroad was used to rest the bottom gtrders of the bridge on. Fifteen iackscrews fur nished motive power. The bridge was moved about six feet an hour.
 Pedestrians were permitted to use the bridge while being moved, and hundreds did so. So smoothly did things go that those who stood on the during US progress SOuLn- ward were unaIe to detect any move ment-but she was going. all right, steadily and surely.
 They moved the bridge in a. day. That, to the ordinary person, would seem to be the big end of the job moving the bridge. But, in fact, II was merely an incident. The real work was getting things ready to move it. Engineers and workmen spent six busy weeks preparing for this great job. Everything was fig ured out to the most minute fraction of an inch. Then the plans were checked and rechecked to make sure they were correct One element Of uncertainty was whether the track age would hold @p. sink in some un- foreseen "soft spot in the terrain or skid. With a mighty bridge on the move. if these things bobbed up, the bridge might give a quick sidelong flop and collapse. Every inch of ground was tested thoroughly.
 The bridge is located in what is known as Jacks Run. in what for merly was old Allegheny City, now a part of Pittsburgh. The structure connects Pittsburgh and the Borough of Bellevue. a suburb.
 Several noted engineers were present to watch the moving.

eral drivers lately have driven right
past the signs paying, no heed to them

If our policemen get as many Offend
