It wus not generally know last night that the affair had been called i IT and quite a crowd hung around the depot to note the arrival of the excursionists or what was left of them, as the case I might be. No excursion came, how-I ever, and it finally became known that | the train would not c< me.

REGARDLESS OF AGE Th-' kidneys are responsible for more sickness, suffering, ano deaths than any othi r organs of the body. A majority of the ills afflicting people today is traceable to kidney trouble. It pervad--3 all classes of society, in all cli mates, regardless of age, sex or condition. Tic symptoms of kidney trouble are un mistal. .bie, such as rheumatism, neuralgia sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in the back a desire to urinate often day or night, pro fuse or scanty supply.
