The poison should bo knpt out. The kidneya are supposed to do this. That ia what they are there for. And they generally do. Uut when they are sick they can't; and then we get sick.

The kidneys may get sick from over-work, worry, excess, high living, etc. The reason that so many of our great men die from Bright's disease is that so "many overwork themselves. Bright's disease is only one of the many diseases the root of which lies in the kidneys. Other folks suffer from diabetes, rheumatism, gout, gravel, sleeplessness, anaemia, nervousness, headache, neuralgia, etc. All these diseases would go if the poison could bo got out of your blood.

Observer Tells More About Pur- 'cliase of Street Car Tickets, To Hiu Editor of tlio GAMTTI: I find in the article printed in your Sunday paper, headed "Competition," that there in an error made in the calculation, or at least not so distinctly stated so as to be readily understood. I desire, therefore, to so give it to the read era of the GAZETTE that there will be no mistake to take in its full meaning at a glance, to-wit: Throe dollars paid to the "old company" street car line at 5 cents a ticket buys GO tickets, while $3 paid to tho new or "Everett line" company at 3 cents a ticket would buy 100 tickets, making a difference to the purchaser of 40 tickets, or $1.20 on the $3 purchase.

This would bo a clear profit of two- fifths, or 40 per cent, on the dollar. Surely this would be to the "laboring man or woman" quite a sum in the course of the year, and saved to those who are most In need of help. Wo are ready to conclude that the board will take into thoir considerations on these different propositions, the smaller items as well as the larger per cent, to the company running the cheaper lines because of the greater number of tickets to be sold. And then again, while our city property is highly taxed, and withal, many are paying license for city privileges, we can see no reason why tho city should not have also some reasonable share of tho profits of Bfcreot car lines to give aid in defraying the expenses of the corporation. This certainly would be right and equal justice to all concerned.
