A Few Calls.

A MAN OF BUSINESS. and young Brown were on their way to SUD- per and the former seemed unusually quiet.
 ''What's the matter with you?" asked Brown. s'You look rather down in the mouth."
 'sOh, it's nothing of any consequence, :" replied Dumley. ''I asked Smith this morning to lend me ten dollars for a day or two and he wouldn't accommo- date me. He said he hadn't got it."
 ''That's strange; he generally has money, hasn't he?"
 Always, replied Dumley, s'I saw him put roll of bills in his pocket only 8 moment before.
 "Very funny,'' said young Brown. ''You and he are old friends, ain't you p''
 'sYes; he has known me all my life. ''
 ''And he wouldn't lend you ten dol lars? Some men are mean. I never liked Smith any way. He always struck mo as being too much of man of busi- ness, too-too fond of looking out for number one. I believe that if Smith were to lose 8 ten-dollar bill it would break him all up. I like to see man take chance once in 8 while. Whats ten dollars to man like Smith? He's rich and could afford to lose ten times that am"
 But here the boarding house was gained and ,Dumley's sudden vault up the steps ended the conversation.
 WHO HE WAs.-"You know, ma, that in Philadelphia, people always ask who ones grandfather was, and as am going there you must tell me. Was my grand father judge, or governor, or 8 presi- dent, or anything ?"
 "Well, no, my dear. He became very rich, though, and you may say he had something to do with banks"
 stBut what was his profession or trader"
 ssOh, never mind about that"
 ssBut these Philadelphia people will ask me, you know"
 "Well, the only trade he ever learned was shoemaking."
 "shoemaking Oh, well, he got rich, so that is all right
 'sYes; he made shoes 8 great many years. He learned the trade and worked at it in penitentiary, but you need not mention that.'

 Read the evidence of a worthy mechanic who was obliged to leave work, who has been cured, and is now able to again attend to his labors and support his family.

 feel impelled, from sense of duty, to make known my case, with the hope that it will be made known to every suffering man and woman with diseased kidneys, that there $ medicine called Hunts Remedy capable, as believe, of curing any case of the most extreme form, and when no other relief can be obtained. l will give you some of the details of my case, observing at the same time that language could hardly describe my suferings.
 About two months ago I caught heavy cold which settled in my kidneys, and the pains in the small of my back were some- thing fearful. I was unable to work, and suffered the most when walking or standing for any length of time; had two doctors, but natural antipathy against patent medicines, but tell you that is all gone. I saw Hunts Remedy advertised, sent and got bottle, and with the first dose began to get well. continued the use of 1t, and am now around as you see me, and am perfectly we'll, and am about to go to work. l consider it the greatest medicine for kidney complaints ever yet discovered. If my statement will be of service you are at liberty to use my name.
