DEATH RECORD BROKEN.
Nearly One Thousand fever Victims in
Crescent City—Spread Surpasses
That of 1878.
New Orleans. Aug. 18.—To
day’s fever figures broke the
record for the number of deaths.
There were twelve fatalities. Up
to 6 p. m. there were 69 new
cases, 12 deaths and 14 new foci
of infection.
This brings the total record to
date to 982 cases, 154 deaths and
202 foci of infection. There are
343 cases now under treatment.
Men in every walk of life
worked in the streets today
scrubbing the pavements, Hush
ing the gutters and oiling and
screening cisterns, while women
went to church and prayed for
the success of the Herculean cam
paign against pest and filth.
The water company is pump
ing 10,000,000 gallons of water
daily to aid in the sanitary work.
Up to the present time the
records show that the number of
new' cases is almost double that
! of the epidemic of 1878, which
| is the worst in the modern his
tory of the city.

Periodic
Pains.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pill3
are a most remarkable remedy
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head
ache, or any of the distress
ing aches and pains that cause 1
women so much suffering.
As pain is weakening, and
leaves the - system in an ex
hausted condition, it is wrong
to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as well as in the
fact that they will leave no dis
agreeable after-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, chloral, cocaine or other j
dangerous drugs.
“For a long time I have suffer0'!
greatly with spells of backache, that
seem almost more than I can endure.
These attacks come on every month,
and last two or three days. I have
never been able to get anything that
would give me much relief until I he
ll -gan the us» of Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain
Piis, and they always relieve me in a
short time. My sister, who suffers
the same way, has used them with
the g-ln» r suits." MRS. PARK.

9 Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping “it will wear away,” are I
g drifting towards Bright’s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. Bj
FOIEYSKIDNEYCURE.
stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues 3
of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out 3
the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and Bj
the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body, K
causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. 3
If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY’S H
KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a 3
fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system. 3
How to Find Out.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are
out of orJer by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE should be taken
at once.
G. B. Burhans Testifies After Four Years.
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
‘‘About four years ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirely
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of
Foley’s Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment and
pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and 1 am evidently cured to stay cured, and
heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any one suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble."
