Athena, Dee. 7. A meeting of the citizens of Athena was held at the school building yesterday afternoon to decide whut disposition to make of a $1000 surplus school money.

At the meeting yesterday, instead of cut ting tho tax down to four mills It was decided to use the extra money to equip the uchool building with bleam heat and in making other Improve ments. At the council meeting Inst night the matter of taxes was discussed and It was decided to levy the usual 9 niMl tax to run the city for the com ing year. H. A. Clemens of the firm of Clem ens .

Poisons that pass off In the urine when the kid neys are well are retained In the body when the kidneys are sick. Kid neys and bladder get inflamed and swollen, crowding the delicate female otBnns nearby and sometimes dis placing them. This la the true cause of many bearing-down pains, lame ness, backache, sldeache, etc. Urlo poisoning also causes headaches dizzy spells, languor, nervousness and rheumatic pain. When suffering so, try Doan's Kid ney Pills, the remedy that cures sick kidneys. Tou will get better as the kidneys get better, and health will return when the kidneys are well. Let a fellow-sufferer tell you about Doan's Kidney Pills. Mrs. J. T. Galloway, C. ct., Elgin Ore., snys: "Judging from the bene fit I derived from Doan's Kidney Pills. I can recommend them as a reliable remedy for the kidneys. I used them principally for a severe pain across my bock, which had an noyed me for some time. The results that followed the use of the first bos were so beneficial that I continued taking thorn and my back has given me but llttlo trouble since." For sale by all dealers. pre to cents.
