The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1897-07-01

SUNDAY last was lazy kind of day.
Every one was lazy and disposed to be
dishonest because of lack of moral ag
gressiveness sufficient to be good. Emil
Sixta, Billy Breuer and Aaron Torrison
went to The shooting grounds on the
forenoon of that day to have a private
shoot. Every one knows that Billy can
kill bird with that broad smile he has,
but on the day named he was too lazy to
smile and he beat the record OF the beet
tail-ender IN the club. Emil Was ser. rs,
the seriousness of man too indolent to
indulge in facial expression. He didn't
get a bird and didn't feel bit ashamed
of it. But "Orrin was the 'lady IN the
center with seven hands round" and in-
troduced a new style OF shooting. He
would blaze away at the plate and then
give the signal to pull the trap. As the
bird sailed away "Orrin" would follow Its
course with blinking delight and contide
In the other two that If his gun WAS load
ed he could "knock the daylight ont OF
that bird"
He took bet with Billy that he could
kill II out of 30. After few shots be
concluded they would be the last II, and
when the margin was getting dangerous
ly short without bird TO his credit, BIZ
discovered that his shoulder was sore and
declared the match off. Emil was the
umpire but had gone to sleep and Billy
was too lazy toput in much of a protest
| anyway.

ditIon was discovered as his breath STAIN
ed mirrow. The physician pronounced
his melGdy heart disease.
He was 30 years old in December last
and was born in New York. He came to
Manitowoc county with his parents IN
1856 and has resided here since He was

a good citizen and had the good will of
all his acquaintance. He leaves large

WILL WALKER was in the city couple
of days this week. He is dieting says
he's too heavy and wants to reduce his
weight. His dietary covers two pages of
foolscap, type written and unleaded.
Many of the articles are not enumerated
but the class is given. 1t Is one of the
most remarkable dletetic. documents ever
prepared and there is not toothsome
edible omitted. No eplcure could pre-
pare bill OF fare from which selections
conld be made through life and have
greater variety, because the thing is q
compendium of everything fit to eat. The
only thing he is denied is liver, and Wills
affection for liver is not so strong as to
endanger his breaking away from the
illimitable field OF Rastronomic license ne
has turned himself loose into. With
liver be is the same as the Chinanan
with the toothplck, who refusing 1t said,
Il ate two OF the COMPOUNDED things and
don't like em.
He says he has red uced his weight 20
pounds since he confined himself to foods
enumerated in this document which
| looks as IT 1T contained enough to make
an arbitration treaty.

HOW TO FIND OUT,

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let 1t stand twenty four hours;
sediment or settling indicates an I'M
healthy condition of the kIdneys. When
urine stains linen It is evidence of kidney
trouble. loo frequent desire to urinHte
or pain in the back, is also convincing
proof that the kidneys and bladder are
out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort IN the knowledge 40
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fullfils
every wish IN relieving pain in the back,
Kidneys liver, bladder and every part of

blllty to hold urine and scalding pain in
passing 1t, or bad effects following the
use OF liquor, wine or beer, and over.
comes that unpleasant 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, 1t stands the highest for
its wonderful cures OF the most distress
ing cases. II you need medicine you
should have the best. Sold by druggists,
