To cure the pains and aches, to re

pain through the small of your back,
urinary disorders, headaches, dizzy
spells, or are nervous and depressed,
start treating the kidneys with a
tested kidney remedy. The slightest
symptom of kidney trouble may be
nature's warning of approaching
dropsy, or- fatal Brlght's disease.

HIGH SCHOOL WINS
OVER WINCHESTER
SCCE WAS UNCOMFORTABLE
AND THE GAME A PITCHERS
BATTLE. '
A telephone message from Win
chester brings the information that
tne High School ball team tucked
away another victory Friday after
noon, but they got mighty tired doing
the tucking. In fact the Winchester
boys were a great deal more troub
lesome at home than when they were
here on the 18th.
With a new pitcher, a new forma
tion m tne line up and a more dogged
determination to get even the game
was a pitcher's battle from the be
ginning. Jennette pitched the first
seven innings and Minor relieved him
for trie finish of the game. The score
was 7 and 8 in favor of the Columbia
High School. Another game was
scheduled to have been played there
this morning, the game with Morgan
having been . cancelled for some rea
son.
