The Reason Why.

The TOMS effect of Kidney-Wort Is
produced by Its cleansing and purifying
action on the blood. Where there Is q
gravelly deposit In the urine. or milky,
ropy urine from disordered kidneys, 1t
cures without fail. Constipation and piles
readi yield to its cathartic and healing
power. Put up in dry vegetable form or
iiauld VERY concentrated.) Either act
prompt and sure.-Tr0y Budget.

This number Is one of remarkable excel

has catered most successfully for the edit
cation and entertainment Of his readers.
There is, as he remarks, something for
everybody, of whatsoever class, or of what
ever age. Bible students, and ser
mon readers, and temperance reformers and
lovers of stories will all find in this issue
something to suit them and to help them
pass the time pleasantly and proftably."
Among the distinguished contributors are
the Revs. j. NJ. Wilton, r. C. Houghton,
w. T. Wylie, T. H. Vail, Bishop of Kansas;
C. F. Deems, David Swing, H. Bonar, Bishop
Peck. ETC.; Alfred II. Guernsey, Hattie W.
Arnold. Mrs. J. G.. Burnett, Josephine Pol
lard, Frank H. Converse, Louise G. Moulton,
etc. The opening article by the editor,
sour Home Heather" is highly interesting,
and equally so is sScenes on the Danube, !"
by A. Guernsey; both are finely illustrated.
The serial story, "Out of the World" is
continued. and the several short stories,
sketches, ETC., are replete with interest and
we'll written. The numerous poems are of
singular merit. DR.. Deems explains Hard
Places in the Bible;" the sermon is by Rev.
Rev. G. n. Sims, on the 'sSupArn atural Sue
cess of Christianity" But it is impossible
to convey in brief notice any idea Of the
rich literary and artistic feast prepared by
the editor. There are 12S quarto pages and
