NOT FOR EVERYTHING

But If you have kidney, liver Or bladder
trouble you will find Swamp-Root Just
the remedy you need. People are not apt
to get anxious about their health soon en-
ough If youare "not quite well" or "half
sick" have YOU ever thought that your
kidneys may be the cause of your sick
ness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside your
urine for twenty-four hours;a sediment
or settling indicates an unhealthy condl-
ton of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too
frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply,
pain or dull ache in the back Is also con-
vincing proof that the kidneys and blad-
der need doctoring.
There is satisfaction in knowing that
the great remedy DR.. Kllmer's Swamp
Root, fulflls every wish in relieving weak
or diseased kidneys and all forms of blad-
der and urinary troubles. Not only does
Swamp-Root give new life and activity TO
the kidneys-the cause of trouble, but by
treating the kidneys it acts as tonic for
the entire constitution. If you need
medicine YOU should have the best. Sold
by druggist, price fifty cents and one dol
lar, or By mentioning THE SITTER and

The receipt of Topeka, Kansas,
papers enlighten US as to the cause of
the death of A. p. Wilder, announ-
ced in these columns two weeks ago.
The Capital says:
He was taken i'll on New Years day
with Inflammation of the kidneys and
impaetion of the bowels, and from that
day to the time of his death, in spite of
the best of medical care and skillful nurs-
ing, he gradually sank away. splendid
type of physical manhood he fought
bravely against the inevitable.
In 1866 he came with his family to To-
peka, which has continued to be his home
from that time. excepting two years,
when he lived in Kingman, Kan. He
was In railroad service about twenty
years, during eighteen of which he held
the responsible position of Car Account
ant of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe system. At the time of his death he
was president and manager of the Kan
sas and Missouri Car association, with
headquarters at Topeka.
He was married to Julia Hines, daugh-
ter of Colonel A. J. Hines of Brattleboro,
November 10, 1857. Four children, one
son and three daughters, were born to
them. The three daughters, now living,
are Mrs. M. P. Hillyer of New York
City, Mrs. Frank Hudson of Kansas City,
and Mrs. Benz f. Criswell of Topeka
Mr.. Wilder during his whole life was
an active and earnest member of the
Universalist church. The past year he
was president of The Universalist State
convention. 1t can be truthfully said OF
A. z. Wilder that he was clean, pure,
truthful Christian gentleman. Scores OF
Young men will remember his courteous
and friendly interest in their welfare.
He was radical temperance man all his
life and could always be counted on the
side of right and morality and law, in
~SN'
mate he placed upon his own qualities of
mind and heart he was ever ready to step
aside for others to lead. One of the quail
tiles that marked Mr.. Wilder was his
uniform courtesy, as also his kindlness
of heart for others in trouble.
He faced death bravely, saying: ~ an
ready to CO." and urged his wife and
children not to give their strength tC
grief after his death. His example as Q
tender, loving husband and father, pure
and true in every re,ation of life, will live
alter him and will remain sweet memo
ry to his family and friends.
The remains of Mr.. Wilder will bt
placed in receiving vault in the Topeks
cemetery until spring when Mrs. Wilder
will accompany them to their old home a
Brattleboro, for burial beside their son.

Is
The Worst Yet.

The snow storm that set in Tues
day and continued for "a hours gave
us 10 inches and wound up with q
big blow. The roads everywhere,
on the mountains, at least, are terri
bly, drifted and in many places will
have to be shoveled out which will
take several days. At this writing
Thursday we have had no mails since
Tuesday and with little prospect for
any until night.
The mail train started "Wednesday
morning and reached West Towns
hend about the middle of the after
noon but could go no further. Thurs
day morning the snow plow, with two
engines attached, started from Brat
tleboro and reached here about II
O'Clock. This will probably insure
the regular mail train up tonight.
The stage started Wednesday
morning but was obliged to return.
1t again started yesterday morning
and got little over mile from the
village where The road breakers with
four horses were found stuck with 20
alternative but to shovel quite dis
tance. With prospect that it would
take till noon to break through to the
North village it returned. SO we
shall certainly get no mail from that
direction until tonight, Friday.
