1t is suggested that each State that has a
banner announce to its W. G.. 7. U. local
unions that this banner will be given into the
custody of the union securing the largest per
cent. of increase in membership in 1888, and
that the national banner, now in custody of
the State of New York be placed at the next
National Convention in care of the State
which shall this year most largely increase
the per cent. of its membership. This gives
an equal chance to the smallest and to the
largest State.
Notwithstanding the fact that Milwaukee
brewers recommend their beer as ''non-in-

shame to our boastsd civilization"
Look at the list Of women who die In
childbirth, and why is it, Simply because
their maternal organs have been 30 weak
ened by the most terrible Of diseases that
they cannot withstand the fearful, sudden
strain that is brought to bear upon them.
How many women escape monthly agoniesl
And yet nature never intended that pain or
Inconvenience should attend the oper-
alton Of her natural laws. Tho SOL
emn and terrible fact is, that men
and women drag along, die, and are
buried, and their friends and the doctors say
heart disease, apoplexy, pneumonia, conges-
ton, commissions, when the cause lay far
back Of all these things. The truth S that
weakened kidneys are the cause of most Of
our troubles The great question, therefore,
is: How shall preserve my kidneys or, il
diseased how can they be restoredT Ihave
seen numbers Of cases and learned from un-
questionable source Of many others, where the
preparation, Hunts Remedy, has been al
most remarkable in its results use it free
ly among my patients, and shall continue to
do so. It is a wonderful and invaluable
remedy"
The remarks Of the learned doctor should
be carefully considered, and acted upon by
all who desire long life and freedom from
pain and the danger of sudden death.
