WHAT TO DO.

There is comfort in the knowl.
edge so often expressed that DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney remedy, fulflls every wish in
relieving pain in the back, kidneys,
liver, bladder and every part of the
urinary passages. 1t corrects. ina
bility to hold urine and scalding
pain in passing it, or bad effects fol-
lowing use of liquors, wine or beer,
and oyercomes that unpleasant nec-
essity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to uri-
nate. The mild and the extraordi-
nary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for
its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medi-
cine you should have the best. Sold
by druggists price fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have a sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free
by mail, upon receipt of three two
cent stamps to cover cost of postage
on the bottle. Mention INDEpEN-
DENT and send your address to Or.

circuit court IN JEFFERSON County

Judge Faulkner began The May
term of Court in Jefferson County,
on Tuesday. The grand jury re-
ported but one indictment which
was for misdemeanor. This is the
first term of Court in Jefferson for
a number of years without a crimi-
nal trial. Crime is evidently on the
decrease in that county.
