Kidney Troubles Ended
DEATH FROM KIDNEY DISEASES A
THING OF THE PAST.
John Morrow Has Produced in Morrow's
Kidneoids an Infaliible Cure for all
Disorders of Those Organs.

The progress of medical science and its APP
plications have so far advanced during the
century. the most eminent specialists are OF the
opinion that thirty years from now Will ind no
disease incurable. This being so, and we have
no reason to dispute it, as all experience and
thought demonstrates the feasibility of such
progress in medicine, we are verging upon a
revelation that will show us, if not really as
tonish, the true revelation of all bodily organ
isms to each other. All medical discoveries,
however, cannot conquer death, but they Will
give the assurance that, it every one takes adj
vantage of the means to heal diseases, old age
will be the only thing that nature can use to
remove Ills from our present existence.
Among those who have made progress in
medicine, no one will stand out more promi-
nently than that renowned chemist, John Nor
row, of Springfield, Ohio, the discoverer OF
Morrow's Kidneoids. the only remedy that will
cure all diseases of the k-idneys-recent or long
standing, acute or chronic.
Pains in the back or loins, sick headache, un.
easiness of the stomach, chilliness, loss OF
strength and energy, etc., are some OF the hrst
symptoms of kidney trouble. Morrow's Kid
neoids, taken at the very first, will give al
most instant relief. If the ailment is allowed
to gain ground, of course it will require a
longer treatment with Kidneoids. Morrow's
| Kidneoids will not work miracles, but they
will cure beyond a shadow OF doubt all kidney
disorders and make the kidneys sound and
useful as they were when III their original
perfect health.
As long as the world stands and mankind is
amenable to natures laws and suffers from
disease seemingly his birthright-M Morrow
Kidneoids will hold a pre-eminent place in
Materia Medica. Not even Anti toxin, the
remarkable cure for diphtheria, has so great a
hold upon a grateful public as Morrow Kid
neoids.
Morrow's Kidneoids are now on sale every
where at 90 cents "A box OF six boxes for $3.50

"The Sweet By.And.

The death of the author of the hymn
1.-THE Sweet By-and-By," at Richmond,
Ill.,, makes apropos the story of the
origin of the hymn. AT the time the
hymn was written S. Fillmore Bennett
was associated in business with j. p.
Webster, the composer, and they pub
lished numerous songs in sheet music
form.
Here is the story in DR.. Benefits
own words: "My partner, Mr.. Webster,
like many musicians, was of an exceed
ingly nervous and sensitive nature, and
subject to periods of depression, in
which he looked upon the dark side of
all things in life. l had learned his
peculiarities so we'll that on meeting
him l could tell at a glance if he was
melancholy, and had found that l could
rouse him by giving him a new song to
work on. One day when he came to
the Office he walked down to the stove
and turned his back on me without
speaking. l was at my desk writing.
Turning to him, [ said: webster,
what is the matter now?' It's no mat
ter he replied, it will be all fright by
and-by.'
1.-THE idea of the hymn came to me
like a flash of sunlight, and l replied.
The Sweet By.and.By! Why would
not that make a good hymn?' Maybe
it would said be, indifferently.
Turning to the desk, l penned the
words of the hymn as fast as l could
write. ! handed the words to Web
ster. AS he read his eye kindled, and,
stepping to the desk, he began writing
the notes. Taking his violin he played
the melody, and then jotted down the
notes for the chorus.
SIT was not over thirty minutes from
the time l took my pen to write the
words before two friends and Webster
and myself were singing the hymn.
While singing, another friend entered,
and, after listening awhile, said: That
hymn is immortal"
1t is not necessary to comment upon
the world. wide renown which this
hymn has gained. II has been trans
lated into various foreign languages,
and sung in every land under the sun.
The author had a copy of the hymn in
Chinese.-Chicago Times Herald.

At School and at Home.

My teacher doesn't think l read
So very special well,
She's always saying, "What was that
Last word2" and makes me spell
And then pronounce it after her.
AS slow as slow can be,
" You'd better take a little care"
That's what she says to me,
" Or else I'm really 'fraid you'll find,
Some one of these bright days,
You're way behind the primer class"
That's what my teacher says.
But when I'm at my grandpa's house,
He hands mt out a book,
And lets me choose a place to read,
And then he'll sit and look
At me and listen, just as pleased
know it from his face.
And when I read a great, long word
He'll say, "Why, little Gracel
You'll have to teach our deestrict school,
Some one o. these bright daysl
Mother, you come and hear this child"
That's what my grandpa saysi

SELECTED POETRY.
My Sweet Girl Graduate.

IT'S a bright commencement morning and the air
ia soft as balm
As I gaze up at her sitting on the rostrum, fair and
calm.
Aud the fragrance of the roses which deck her
bonny hair
at me there2
Outside the bees are h%umming, and the robbins
celebrate
The day with merry cadence for the sweet girl
graduate.
My heartthrobs struggle strangely as she reads her
thesis through:
She musters all the planets in a company review;
She tells about the business which they transact
day aud night,
And where she thinks they came from, and IL they're
working right.
But Pm thinking not Of planets, their ORIGIN or fate.
Though I'm paying strict attention to the sweet girl
graduate.
And now a second June. lime with it's fresh COM

Most %tenderly reminds me OF that cherished MEM

As I gather all my roses for the one love to please
For my darling wife and sweetheart, who, I'm more
than glad to state,
Is that fair and learned lady, the sweet girl gradu.

Another happy summer hath quickly gone and
come;
1 am walking in my garden. and my lips are fairly

And my only 6rst-born daughter is its very gracious
freight
And the baby's smiling mother is my sweet girl

An Immune.

TIT stamp tax does not bother me
Nor mar my life's tranquility;
Still-still in gentle peace live;
Ihave no checks, dear friends, to givel
With no expressmen 1 contend,
Having no packages to send;
Never a stamp law shall I break,
Having no mortgages to make.
No great transactions know my hand,
No millwheels move at my command,
No ships are mine that sail the sea,
Though banks may break, they break not me.
-Serene-content, I go my way
Sound sleep at night and toll by day,
From warning wolves of Tax secure
Still thankful that l am so poor!
