Boldly do we affirm that Kidney Wort is the
great remedy for liver, bowels and kidney
disease; rheumatism and piles vanish before
it. The tonic effect of Kidney Wort is pro.
duced by its cleansing and purifying action
on the blood. Where there is gravelly
deposit in the urine from disordered kid
neys, it always cures.

While in Racine last Friday afternoon we
were shown through the Badger State
Wooden Mills at that place, and had all Che
processes of weaving explained to US by one
of the gentlemen connected with the estab-
lishment. But few people in Kenosha are
aware that so large factory of this kind
is in operation in Racine, and it would well
repay any one when there to visit the fac
tory and see all the processes wool has got
to go through before it is made into cloth and
shawls. The factory is running day and
night, and is receiving orders as far east as
Philadelphia and New York, which speaks
we'll for the reputation Of the firm.

A young man named Ferdinand Sklenar
was burned to death in barn at North
Point, near Racine, on Sunday night. His
mother is suspected of setting the barn on
fire and fastening the door with large beam
on the outside so as to prevent her son from
escaping death. The mother and son had
a quarrel on Sunday night, and the young
man refused to sleep in the house and went
out into the barn. His mother followed
him in about two minutes and nothing more
was heard of them until the fire broke out,
when Mrs. Sklenar awakened neighbor
and informed them that the barn was on
fire, but said nothing about her son being in
the building. II is said by some of the
neighbors that the mother is insane.
Notwithstanding the fact that law has
been on the statute book for many years re-
quiring the closing Of saloons on Sunday,
but little attention has been paid to it. and
entrance could be gained to nearly all the
saloons in this city every Sunday. But it
appears that now an effort is being made to
enforce the law, and all good citizens should
aid the officers in seeing that the law is car
ried out. On complaint of Mayor Newell,
John Schmitt, Michael Hammond, Leonard
Maurer and Mrs. Jaeger were arrested this
week on the charge of selling liquor on Sun
day. The cases of Michael Hammond.
Leonard Maurer and Mrs. Jaeger were con-
tinued until next week. John Schmitt's
case was continued until next Friday.

ball and Lewis upon the violin, with piano
accompaniment By Miss Hinsdale; while
songs we're contributed by Mrs. C. C. Brown,
Mrs. DR.. Hazelton. Miss Anna Hawley, Mr..
Healy and Mr. Richard Howe. The music
reflected great credit upon the ladies and
gentlemen who kindly took part. The pro-
ceeds, for the benefit of the church, were
$28. It may be added. Mr.. Kimball, at
whose house the entertainment was held,
has been devoted to the music of the chief
of all instruments, the violin, for more
than forty years, and, unlike many men
who put aside their musical instruments be-
fore they reach middle life. he wisely con-
tinues to enjoy his violin, not only for his
