An important Function stimulated.

The kidneys exercise most important
functions, which are so weariso ne that
they tax to the utmost the strength and
endurance of these busy little organs.
Every breath, every pulsation of the
heart, every movement of limb, every
thought, makes waste, and necessitates
the development of new atoms. The
used up particles in the blood are sifted
from it, and dissolved in a watery fluid
by the kidneys, which then discharge this
fluid into the bladder. train of dis
asters to the system would follow if these
"ashes," so to speak, were not thorough

the case when the kidneys become mac

during the expectant time it imparts
health and vigor to the entire system and

shortens confinement; frees delivery

pain gives recuperative energy to the
mother and insures healthy supply of
nourishment for the child.
Any special weakness or disease Of the

UNCLE ASHER'S EXAMPLE.
1t Seemed Easy to Follow, but Young
Enoch Fell Down.

"My Uncle Asher was master hand at
tradin, remarked, without any previous
PROV ocation, the bewhiskered old fellow
who was located III handy proximity to
tho Squantum storekeeper's cracker box.
"He would swap anything and every
thing, from horses 10 secondhand tomb
stones, and nine times out Of ten he got
the best of the bargain.
Mature had endowed him with meek
and lowly cast of countenance, and long
practice had given him dreary, hopeless
cough both of which were about the ablest
assistants he could possibly have had in
his traffickin. 1t was hard for a stranger
to suspect sad and solemn man, with IA
graveyard cough on him, of bein an &C
complished and constituencies liar, and so
Uncle Asher usually got what he went
after and also such incidentals as came
handy.
"When his son Enoch was old enough
to begin followin in his father footsteps,
the old man, thinkin that an example
would be of more value to the boy than
many lines and precepts, started out on
foot one day with nothin to trade but an
old jackknife, and it wasn't 50 very much
of jackknifs either. Four days later he
came ridin back in a first rate top buggy
drawn by span Of pretty fair horses.
Tied behind the vehicle was "a COW and
calf. In the buggy was shotgun, d clock,
three gallons Of hard cider and a music
box, and alongside trotted q likely dog,
Uncle Asher had swapped round and round
till he had got the whole outfit from tho
proceeds of that one knife, and he didn Il
complain OF havin overexerted himself
either
"Well, Cousin Enooh was fired with zeal
to go and do likewise, and off he started
early next mornin with jackknife in his
pocket and the determination in his heart
to show the old man what youth and am
bition could accomplish. He told me in
confidence that when he came back he eX-
pected to be ridin in q band wagon and
have whole circus parade tollowin him
About 4 o'clock in the afternoon of that
same day Il small boy appeared ut Uncle
Asher's and after collectin Il quarter of u
dollar for his trouble handed the old man
Il note which read as follows
"DEAR PA-Please come and find me at the
place where the turnpike crosses Brockett'l
brook, about seven miles from home. Hollel
