No woman can be healthy and well if the kidneys are sic.k. Poisons that pass off in the secretions when the kidneys are well, are retained in the body when the kidneys are sick. Kid neys and bladder become inflamed and swollen and worse troubles quickly follow.

When suffering so, try Doan's Kid ney Pills, a remedy that cures sick kidneys. You will get better as the kidi'Oys get better, and health will re turn wlieu the kidneys are well.

REPAIRING CULVERT For the third time since the com pletion of the canal culvert oh Mill street the vitrified brick paving at that point is being torn up in order to raise the road bed where it has sunk. Due to thi' nature of the fill used at the culvert the process of sinkiug has been gradual, making the surface of the street uneven and causing the wat I or to accumulate. The borough and the Danville and Sunbury Transit Oonipany jointly are striving to keep the street in good re pair and twice previously have torn up the brick and raised the track. A quantity of crushed limestone has been delivered on the spot to be used in filling up the street.

They were strewn along the ground for a couple of rods, while quite a large heap lay in the mud by the side of the wheel where they dropped aftei the wagon stopped, before the driver could close the bag. About the time tliar the accident happened school was dismissed and what occurred when the youngsters came trooping along can easily be imagined. Never had such a windfall couie their way before. Pockets were hastily filled out of the super abund ance that was going to waste. The driver recovered what he convenient ly could and left the rest to the chil dren. A large quantity was trampled in the mml. A Variety Shower. A variety shower was held at the '.tome of M. L. Blooui, Riverside, on Monday, in honor of his daughter Elsie.

He presented a check on the First National Hank of Danville ilrawn to the onler of John B. Giltuer auil purporting to li signed by O. O. Snavelv, which ho desired Mr. Fry to liobl an necniity. The proposition seem- IMI like a fair one ami the mimic ileal- IT argeod to accept tlio check an *e- Scarcely had the stranger retired willi the violin than Mt. Fry became dubious as to the proceeding. With the check iu his pocket he started out to look for tiie purchaser of the violin. At Diets' meat market on Mill street ho fortunately ran across the Rev. O. t'. Suavely,whose signature the check purported to bear. Mr. Suavely prom ptly and emphatically declared the check a forgery ; he had signed no such a paper. The man, John B. Giltuer, had made some repairs on Mr. Suave ly'* oigan during the week and had been paid thiee dollars for the work. While the music dealer anil Mr. Suavely were talking Ghief-of-Police Mincemoyer came along. Being ap prised of the facts the officer recalled that he had seen Giltuer only fifteen minutes before and ho believed that he could find him at that moment. Taking possession of the forged check he started out to make-the arrest. At Treas' hotel the Chief found the man wanted and at once took him into custody. The fiddle was recovered and handed over to Mr. Fry. The man airestod acknowledged that lie was John B. Giltuer,to whoso ord er the check was drawn. His homo, he said, was in Now York City. By way of excuse ho explained that lie had cashed the check for another fellow, "a short man." When the chief askeil him to explain how it happened that the check lie cashed was drawn to his own order lie had no satisfactory an swer. He was committed to jail to await a hearing, which will take place before Justice-of-the Peace Dalton at 10 o'clock this morning. The man arrested is about forty five yars of age and was in town all last week. HEAVIER RAILS ARE BEING LAID The force of workmen employed in changing the nils ou this division of the D. L. & W. railroad has now reached a point within two miles of Danville, and the tails have been de livered all the way between that point and Northumberland. The rail being displaced is the or dinary sixty-seven-pound rail, which lias been iu use ou this division for many years. The new rail is a seven ty-six pound rail and is perceptibly larger auil heavier. At intervals iu the borough they may be seen lying along the track in piles. The object in vhauging the rail, it is said, is to provide for the tunning of heavier engines on this division. The passenger locomotives at pres ent in use can not start up as quickly as the more modern and heavier en gines, and it is said that in the ag gregate much time is lost at the num erous stops mado on a single run. At present two section gangs are employed laying the tiack. At times the work train with a crew of fifty to seventy-five men is ou the job. When the work is being pushed in this man ner it is possible to lay as much as three-fourths of a mile of track per day. Much less progress is > a when only the soction hands are --n loyed. The process of changini < • rails, which is done between trai. ; s quite an interesting oue. and showt owl.at a complete system the work is reduc ed. The new rails are laid end to end paralled with the rails to be displaced and are fastened together just as they are to lie upon the ties. Then, when all as ready, the spikes are quickly withdrawn; the old rails are thrown asido and the now rails connected are bodily lifted over anil spiked down. Four Generation* Present.

SUNK TWO FEET The reconstruction of the trolley track over the canal culvert on Mill street has revealed a rather perplexing state of affairs. It is well established that the constant sinking of tho track is due to the uature of the till used when the culvert was constructed. This was composed largely of soft earth gathered from various sources. The track along with the course of concrete ill which the ties wore laid was removed yesterday, and tho heavy roller belonging to Contractor W. H. Lyon was biought down from East Market street aud employed ou the job. Uudei its weight the roadbed ou the culvert sunk perceptibly.
