FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE
Will positively cure any case of Kidney or Bladder disease that is not beyond the reach of medicine. No medicine can do more.
FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE strengthens the urinary organs, builds up the kidneys and invigorates the whole system.   IT IS QUARANTEED.
PASSED STOIES AIO 8MVEL WITI EXCRUCMTIIQ PAHS.
A. H. Thurnes, Mgr. Wills Creek Coal Co., Buffalo, O., writes: "I have been afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble for years, passing gravel or stones with excruciating pains. Other ttiedicincs only gave relief. Aflcr taking FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE thc result was surprising. A few doses started the brick dust, like fine stones, etc., and now I have no pain across my kidneys and 1 feel like a new man.    FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE has done me $1000 worth of good."

"Hill of Moreh.''^ Nothing is known of the hill of Mnrch be.vond the faet tlmt it could not be the plare mentioned in Gen, 12: 6 and Deut. 11; 30.
2, "Too many." The objei-t of thia de liverance from God wns not chieHv to save Ihc farms and cropa from the Jliilinnitea, but to save the people from their sina and to teach them to trust and obey God. Ily the manner in whieh this whole transnc. tion waa conducted both the laraelitea and Midianitea must see thnt thc thing waa ol God. Thia would inspire the Israclitea with confidence and lill their enemies with fcnr.

Thia bidiling Ihp cowardly de¬ part lest they should inlieiiilnte the rest wna comniaiiiled even in the law. Ileut. 20; 8. "From Mount Gilca.l." A tlilli.ulty arises here, as the Israelites w,'re now al Mount Gilboa on the weat of the .lordan and Mount Gilesd is on the east of the .Tordan. It haa been sugge."tccl, 1. That the text mav lie corrupted nnd that Gilend shoulil read Gilboa. 2. That there mny hive been another Gilead on the west ol Ihe .lordan. 3. That possiMv the text shnuld roail. Whosoever from Minut Gil rad in fearful and nlraid, let him return home.
4, 'Tntn the waler." That i-i, the foun. tain Harod and Ihe slr.'am that (lowed from it. "Will try them." The word try whieh occurs here signitles to test by fire, as Ihe r,'tiuer testa silver.
,1. "I.ai,|ieth-as a ting" The si'cond test was for thc remaining in,noo. Three hundreil did n.it break rank nr slop in their march, bnt dipped their hidlowed iialm into the stream ami tossed a little into their mouth as Ihev stood.

Ilichard I.. Howell, for thirly jM-ars a respected cltlr-en of this city, posses¬ sing the full coufldeuce of his neigh¬ bors, has absconded, acknowledging thnt hp Is nt fault for the wriH'klng of the concern of which he was the sec¬ retary. A few days ago he was de¬ nouuced by crowds ot much excited In¬ dividuals who tlirongeil the streets. Ills only act of reparation was Ihc oouveylng of bla propprty here to tbo directors of tho Stoek Building Asso¬ ciation. This property was scheduled nt a valuation of J.lil.iHKl, but nn Inves¬ tigation provps that It would sell for uo more than f.MKXl.
HIchard Howell was one of tbe orlg- Inaturs of the Stock Hulldlng Assocla- tlun, which was formed lu 1.S74. He was inndp Its flrst secretnry, nud ho held that posllluu to tho dny he myste¬ riously disaiipeared.
There bnd bpen some ugly rumors afloat, but no one gave thcni serious thought, nud llttle nttentlon ivas paid to the absence of Htiwell until he had been goue several days. Theu ques¬ tions wero asked, nud It was learned tbat he had sent to Geoige II. I.nugle.v, the President of the Association, n package cuatnluliig deeds to all of bla pruperty In this part of the State.
It was feared that the association was in serious dillleultles. hut nulet was restored when It was nnouiiced that Mr. Howell's property was worth $.'111,0110. A meeting of the stockhold¬ ers was called, ami there yvas a full at- teudnuce, Mauy weut Ibere pxpectlnR to bear bad news, but the worst fears of the most pessimistic werp far more thau realised. Although the otHcers nnd directors of the asaociation were present Ihey would uot talk. They were represented by AValler Bacon, of Bridgeton, ivho had bppu employed aa counspl,
Mr, Baeon said tbat a shortngo bad lipcji prpated during the last moutli. He added that for years the nffairs of thp nssoclation had Iippu In bad shapp. It wns thought that tbe Income of tbp association bnd been close to $,12,000 a year duriug the last two years. Instead of thnt 11 wns but $12,000.
Mv. Howell, wbo had charge of tho' bookkeeplug, bnd made n practloe of crediting all money received to the a,- count of prollt. So ivlien loans bad been lepnld be had added the priuel¬ pnl to the proflt accouut. making It jkis- sllilt' to pay the Interest regularly and ke,-p every one pleased. It Is a fact that fur years ili," cniiHal of the asso¬ ciatiuii has been used to pny dividends.
Mr. Bacon closed Ills remnika with Ihe snggeallun Hint one uf three courses must be purKucd. If business Is to be continued tbe cnpltal must be replenished. If business Is not lo bp eonlliined liniikruplcy slinuld be nc- ceiited. The third nlternallve Is the appulutmeMt of a receiver.
Oue uf thp stockholders nsked that experts be eniployed to go over the books and accounts. This was object¬ ed tu by Mr, Itncoii 011 the ground that there Is no money lo pny Ibe Increased expense. The sloekholders lipenuie ralher ugl.v, and Inslateil upnn hnvlng their nwn yvny. A committee was then appointed, and all efforts to have one of the present directors made n mem¬ ber of that committee failed, Mr, f I.aiigley was nsked If he knew wbere .Mr, Howell had goue, 116 refused lo answer the nucstlon.
Thp situnllon here Is pitiful. Hun¬ dreds of stockholders, most of tbeui poor persons who had Ihelr all staked In the nssoclation, have been left pen¬ niless. Widows with ehUdren, who weri' drawing flve per cent, dividend* from the concern, are confronted wllh Hie cnlnnilly of nlisolute poverty,
