Mr. William Thornton, of 127 W. Market
Street, Explains How and
Why Ho Old It.
From the Elmlra Gazette.
Old age has many Infirmities, none of
which are more prevalent thun kidney dis
orders. Have you ever noticed how the
old people complain of backache, lame
back, and general HstlesBness? And there
are many other symptoms of which they
do not speak, such as bloating of the limbs,
painful and infrequent urination or excess-
Iveni-BH or tne urinary discharge. Most
peoplu think they are too old to llnd relief
and cure, but this Is not so. No better ev
idence than the following, which comes
from an Elmlra citizen, who has been
cured of a very sovero case at 77 years of
age. Mr. William Thornton, of 127 West
Market street, speaks of his case In this
way: "I am 77 years old. I have been
nflUcted with that flreadful complaint
(kidney disease) for over ten years, mak
ing my old age a burden. I was so bad as
to be forced to carry a belt at nil times.
and, when my suffering became beyond
endurance, I would put on the belt, draw
ing It tightly around mo and buckle it.
thus bringing an extreme pressure over
the kidneys; this,-undoubtedly, forced the
urine out, a function which the kidneys
themselves had become too diseased to
perform. My condition I put down to a
strain I received. I began taking Doan's
Kidney Pills. I was much surprised, as
the ailment was so severe and so long
standing, while I had tried many remedies
without any relief whatever. The pain I
have expenencea at times rrom straining
In my efforts to discharge the urine was
Imply awful. I have done away with tha
use of my leather belt, and the pain has
all gone, and I recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills to all afflicted with Jcldney and
urinary disorders." ', . .

THE WORLD OF BUSINESS
STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York, June 28. The early trad
ing at the Stock Exchange was char
acterized by great firmness. Commis
sion houses were In receipt of good or
ders to buy railway list generally, the
agreement reached by the Trunk line
presidents to restore rates July 8 and
the advance 'in the prices of anthracite
coal having made a number of bulls.
London was also a buyer of American
securities and this contributed In no
Bmnll degree to the rise of V4u2 per
cut., which took place In the hour
of trading. Just before 1 o'clock a
tremendous celling movement stuirted
in the Industrials and these issues
broke anywhere from 1 to 7 per cent.
Sugar dropped 5'. to 10G; Chicago
Gas, 4 to 62; Lead, 3 to 3Vy. Distillers,
2 to 19; General Electric, 2 to 34;
Burlington und Qulney, 2 to 83, and
the general list anywhere from V4 to 1
per cent.
The slump was attributed to liquida
tion by an ex-member of the Stock Ex
change, who has taken quite a promi
nent part In the recent bull movement
In Sugar. In the afternoon, when the
unfavorable rumors referred to failed
