THE TRUTH ABOUT
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Kidney trouble la Inflammation of the
ziuneys aue to coias, exposure,. .worry,
xcesses in eatlnar and drlnklna. etc
Backache Is seldom an evidence of
innammation 01 the kidneys.
Smoklness or sediment that can be
seen with the . naked eye are not usu
ally evidences of a very serious stage
of the inflammation. Both often show
In people otherwise -well and commonly
disappear wun ine exciung cause. .
The patient should diet. void colds
and live carefully and the ordinary case
of kidney trouble will with care and
treatment usually disappear . the first
few we?ks.
If it persists, or there should bo con
tinued evidence of disordered kidnevs.
it should demand the attention of the
Satient in view or the position taken
y medical writers that about the sixth
month the Inflamed condition becomes
chronic, and incurable. ,
It will be seen through- all the above
that the real trouble is Inflammation In
the kidneys. While there , are many
kidney ,, stimulants they have been
abandoned by physicians, for they now
know that none of them' carry repair
to inflamed kldneya
The late John J. Fulton was the first
fnan in the world to discover an emol
lent that reaches the kidneys. :
It reverses the old : treatment. In
stead of Irritating the Inflamed kid
neys with stimulants, the effect la the
gradual reduction of the Inflammation
and for the first time kidney disease,
both In the first and second stages, is
amenable to treatment, Fulton's Renal
Compound abating the Inflammation In

IN THIS TOWN
In Hawbrth, N. J., This Ma

' Buildings.
A whole village In which every house
Is of concrete construction may be

problem caused anxiety and trouble at
the start, and It was. found necessary
In some instances to aonlv an exterior

An aamixture or waterproofing (com

process -resulted In a dense waterproof
concrete. Cost records disclosed the
fact th-the monollthlo houses cost
about 10 per cent more than the block
houses,, owing to the use of forms, es
pecially for ornamental detail. In tht
block house a smooth surface block
with four to one mix for the body and
two to one for the face was used,
while In the monolithic houses the mix
ture was one of cement three of sand
and five of steam cinders. These
houses cost more than frame construc
tion, but the additional outlay will be
more than met by reduced cost ror in
surance and repairs. The dwellings
shown are interesting examples of the
application ' of concrete to houses of
moderate cost, and it will not be long

"Lumber now Is being offered at
prices which appear ridiculously low

consumers must come Into the market.
and the instant they do prices are going
to advance 10 to 26 per "cent, and the
