Independent Battery during the Civil War, tells how he was relieved and cured of the most terrible of Kidney Trouble, Stomach Disorders and Rheumatism. "From the time we were mustered out at the close of the war until about 4 years ago I suffered very severely with Kidney Trouble, accompanied by rheumatism. Many times I gave myself up to die, the pain and weakness was so great. "The doctors could not help me and I thought my time had come, but hearing of Dr. CHASE's wonderful work I determined to try once more. "A persistent use of Dr. A.W. CHASE's Kidney-Liver Pills for about 3 months made me a new man. My suffering is all over with now, and I cannot tell in words how grateful I am." The kidneys are the weakest part of the body. If they are neglected, disorders of every other organ follow, and finally death from heart failure, Bright's disease or diabetes. Don't wait until it is too late. If your back aches, or you have any trouble with your urine, any discoloration or deposits in same, or any disorder of the stomach or liver, Dr. CHASE's Kidney-Liver Pills are a guaranteed cure for those troubles.

LE ROY, June 12. — A sad calamity, which happened near this village on Sunday resulted yesterday in the death of Leon, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles ROGERS, aged 3 years. This little boy, together with his older brother, Charles, aged 5 years, were spending the day at the home of their grandfather, John JANET. During the afternoon while playing about the house the children strolled into the cellar, where they found some Paris green, which they unsuspectingly began to sample. The younger of the boys took quite a quantity and was taken very ill. The older boy did not get enough to cause serious effects, but both of the children were taken to Dr. S.W. SKINNER of this village. Leon vomited a number of times and it was hoped that fatal results might be avoided, but his condition became much worse during the night. After intense suffering for nearly twenty-four hours the child succumbed to the effects of the poison. The case is one of the most sad which has occurred in this vicinity in a long time. Le Roy's Board of Health has issued the following notice: "This board has deemed it advisable, owing to the prevalence of diphtheria in Batavia, to caution all persons visiting that place to be careful not to come in contact with that disease, and especially not to allow their children to visit that place for the present; also that all ball games to be played with Batavia teams in this village, be postponed until the diphtheria is eradicated.
