ports of the world.
S. Issues a magnificent colored
magazine cover with the Sunday pa
per.

contribute to the Republic than any
other paper.
10. Issues an unequaled .four-page
comic weekly with each Sunday paper
free.
II. Publishes pages of interest and

MuItum In Parvo.

The fatigue incident to travel on
poorly equipped railway trains and
improperly constructed road-bcds,
may be overcome by selecting the
..BEsr ROUTE" The most popular
trunk line from ST. LOUIS to ALL EAs-
TERN POINTS is the Baltimore & Ohio
Southwestern Railway, the ROYAL BLUE
LINE. An appreciative public testify
by a continued and unprecedented pat
ronage the merits of the ''BEsT ROUTE"
over all COMPETITORS. Tickets via
the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern
Railway are on sale at the ticket offices
of all Railways in the West. Lowest
rates, unexcelled service, and unques-
tionable reliability compose the Trim
ity which have made it famous.

HOW TO FIND luI.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty four hours: sedi-
ment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the kidneys When urine
stains linen il is evidence of kidney troub-
le Too frequent desire to urinate or pain
in the back, is also convincing proof that
the kidneys and bladder are out oforder.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulhls
every wish in relieving pain in the back
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part Of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inability
to hold urine and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or bear, and overcomes that I'M
pleasant necessity of being compelled to
get up many times during the night to
urinate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of swamp Root is soon realized. II
stands the highest for its wonderful cures
Of the most distressing cases. If you need
a medicine you should have the Lest.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and
one dollar You may have sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
mail. Mention THE RIVER Fails JoURN-
AL and send your address to d.. Kilmer

tor of this paper guarantees the genuine

mainder o! his life. He was soldier in

service.
In 1867 he was married to Mrs. Thoen

ago. The following children survive and
mourn the parents: Mrs. John Erickson,
New Centerville, Mrs. Al. Brock and Mrs

A Elf Memorial.

On little hilltop in the Sleepy Hol-
low Cemetery at Concord, among
oaks and pine trees, and near the
graves of Hawthorne and Thoreau,
stands monument that marks the
resting place of Emerson. 1t is sim
ply a rough bowlder of rose quartz,
neither polished nor hewn, but singu-
larry iridescent and beautiful There
is something in this naked rock, as it
overlooks the wooded slopes and the
lilied pond below, that is eminently in
keeping with the rugged sweetness Of
our poet Notwithstanding that
denotes his mildness, his individual
color and his nearness to the heart of
nature. In one of its irregular sur
faces copper plate is imbodded, on
which is inscribed the following
courlet:
The passive master lent his hand
To the vast soul that DER him planned.

Ambrose's Wit.

Through some perverse com bina-
tiOn of circum stances scarcely a score
of people greeted James Ambrose
when he took the platform at the
Baptist church Monday night. This
was especially deplorable as the price
of tickets had been placed at an easy
rate in order that none who cared to
attend should be obliged to forego the
delight OF hearing an exceptionally
gifted speaker. For Ambrose has the
knack of reaching all hearts, gaily and
sincerely: and he plays upon them at
will with either the delicious treble
Of pathos or the drum sticks Of sound
ing mirth. And this too, with spon-
taneous warmth that is convincing
as we'll as captivating.
1t was gratifying to note among
those in attendance, some of the men
in town to whom we are won't TO look
for an appreciatiye estimate of things
that are healthful and things that
are wise.
