A PHYSICIAN’S DIAGNOSIS OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE.
A Seemingly Common Disease
which Becomes Fatal through
Neglect and which May Be
Readily Cured by Prompt At-
; tention.
More than two-thirds of the annual
death rate, physicians claim, is directly
traceable to kidney disorders.
Interested by this remarkable asser-
tion and desiring to acquire a better un-
derstanding of the origin of the disease,
a prominent physician was recently in-
terviewed as to the sympton^ of such
troubles.
“To what do you attribute the great
destructiveness of kidney diseasg?” was
asked.
“The hold which the disease gains in
the body before the victim becomes aware
of his true condition, and the rapidity
with which it eats its way into the vital
organs.” **
“Would not the proverbial ‘ounce of
prevention’ check the progress of the
disease?”
“There is no doubt of it. The trouble
is that victims of this disease mistake
the symptoms for some trifling ailment
in the stomach or bowels; therefore they
do nothing to arrest the course of the
disease until it is well advanced.”
“What is the origin of kidney trouble? ”
“Almost invariably bad digestion, fol«
lowed by torpid liver and a constipated
habit.”
“What are the symptoms?”
“Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish
brain, restless nights, pale or sallow
•kin, bad breath, lack of appetite, hearts
burn, sour belching, backache or tender
ness over the kidneys, nervous weak
ness, dark rings around the eyes, tired
feeling, too much or too little urine, and
sediment in urine.”
ITS EFFECT ON THE HEART.
“In what way is the heart affected from
kidney trouble?”
“In all cases the heart is disturbed
though in many instances the palpita-
tion does not become alarming until the
disease has advanced to a serious point
A ^fevere heart throbbing and nervous
trembling is noticeable, especially after
a little bodily exercise; the victim fre-
quently imagines he has heart disease.”
HOW TO CURE IT.
“What is the proper course of treat-
ment for kidney disease?”
“First, to get rid of uric acid and other
poisons in the system. This can be done
bv stimulating the bladder'and bowels
so that they will act more freely. The
suffering kidneys must be strengthened,
the liver and stomach toned up and the
digestion improved.”
Prickly Ash Bitters is a remedy that
answers these requirements completely.
It is not only a system tonic and regu-
lator, but its healing and restorative in-
fluence will build up the weakened kid-
neys and urge them to a better perform-
ance of their duties. It gives strength
and tone to the liver, stomach and heart
and promotes harmony of action through-
out the body.
M. W. Burr, Tillage blacksmith and respected
citizen of Starks, La., says: “I.was troubled with
kidney and liver disorder for 18 years. 1 was in
continual misery until I began taking Prickly
Ash Bitters which has entirely cured me, and I
am now a strong, healthy and hearty man. I
give It to my wife and four children and they are
in the best of health, too. 1 feel that Prickly Ash
Bitters is the best remedy on earth and that
everybody should keep a bottle at home.”

Texas Ranchman
Bit By a Skunk

Austin, Texas, Nov. 20.—Because
a ranchman threw a rock at a
“polecat” and afterward engaged In a
battle with the varmint he is now
being treated at the Pasteur Institute
in Austin for a bite inflicted by the
animal. The battle occurred a few
days ago on a ranch about twenty
miles north of San Antonio. While
the ranchman was crossing a pasture
he saw lying beneath a chapparal
bush about 25 yards distant what ap-
peared to be a bundle of white and
black fur. His sportsmanlike quali-
ties proved too great a temptation to
be resisted and the ranchman picked
up a stone and threw it in the direc-
*
tion of the bush. The skunk, instead
of running away, made a dash for
the rancher, who. taken by surprise,
resisted as best he could; but was
finally put to flight after the cat had
inflicted an ugly wound in his* leg.
Physicians at the Pasteur Institute

Professor Doughty
Wants New Laws
Austin, Texas, Nov. 20.—Prof. W.
F. Doughty, state superintendent of
public instruction, has announced he
will recommend to the thirty-fdurth
legislature the enactment of a dum-
ber of laws bearing on education,
which, if passed, wi\] not only provide
ample funds for educational purposes,
but also, he says, insure a nine

Among other things Mr. Doughty will

school forces; an act that will insure
adequate financial support for* all
schools; a compulsory attendance
law; an act authorizing school boards
to provide free text books; and an

Widow of
Confederate Gen’I
Fights For Home
Athens, Ga’, Nov. 20.—The injunc-
tion which Mrs. Helen Dortch Long-
street, widow of the famous confeder-
ate general, secured to restrain an
insurance company from selling her
home, will be the subject of a hear-
ing here tomorrow in the federal
court. On Nov. 2, Mrs. Longstreet
secured an order restraining the in-
surance company and the sheriff of
Hall county from selling her home at
Gainesville, Ga. Some time ago she
,
filed a petition in bankruptcy and
the property, it is urged, should he
handled by the trustees. At tomor-
row’s hearing, the court will be asked
to make the injunction permanent.
Mrs. Longstreet is now living in
New Jersey. She was formerly the
postmistress at Gainesville, but was
removed from office for “pernicious
political activity.”

Upset for College Requirements.
(Special to The Herald.)
Providence, R. L, Nov. 20.—The
fact that young men who fail to pass
entrance examination at colleges are
able to do college work well has been
proven at Brown University in a
novel experiment. A year ago last
September ten young men who were
unable for various reasons to fulfill
the entrance requirements were ad-
mitted as an experiment. The fac-
ulty desired to learn whether or not
the ability of a man to pass entrance
requirements was a true* test of his
ability as a student
According to the report of Dean
Randall, nine of the ten men proved
to be unusually good students and
entirely worthy of the opportunity
which was opened to them. The re-
sult of the test is bound to bring
about a more liberal treatment of col-
leges toward applicants for admis-
sion, and a wide study of educational
capabilities will eventually supersede
the old fashioned tests for entrants.
