HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass
with urine and let it stand twenty
four hours; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition OF
the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is positive evidence of kid
ney trouble. Too frequent desire to
urinate 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
so often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney rem
edy, fulflls every wish in relieving
pain In the back, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of the urin-
airy passages. 1t corrects inability
to hold urine and scalding pain in
passing it, or bad effects following
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 real
| lied. 1t stands the higher for its
wonderful cures Of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medi,
cine you should have the best. Sold
by druggists, price fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have sam
pie bottle and pamphlet sent free
by mail, upon RECEIPT of three two
cent stamps to cover cost OF postage
on the bottle. Mention Sistersville
Weekly Oil Review and send your
address to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bling
hampton, N. Y. The proprietor Of
this paper guarantees the genine'
ness of this offer.

Mr.. John Lewis who runs hack

the news of almost unprecedented

in several disasters.
The creeks were swelled to EN-,

were converted into raging creeks.
Indian Creek was on a rampage
and untold damage is known to
have been done to the growing
crops along the valley through
which it runs.

he, together with three men who
work on the pipe line narrowly es'
capped with their lives.
The current was very rapid and
they were carried nearly quarter
of a mile down stream before they
succeeded in getting ashore. He
also reports that man by the
name of Strickling in attempting to

AnImDOrfant Suit.

Harry P. Camden, of Parkers,
burg, and George Caldwell, OF
Wheeling, were in the city this
morning en- route to Middlebourne
to try the case of the Henry Oil
company VS. Edward Dalton, for
damages for burning up the rig,
&C., of an oil we'll. Mr.. Camden
appears for the plaintiffs and Cald,
we'll for the defendants. Mr.. Dial,
ton was employed to shoot well
on Elk Fork. The Henrys claim
the man who did the work, struck
a match within 40 feet of the well
which ignited the gas and burned
the we'll up. The defense, we un-
derstand, claim it was an accident,
pure aud simple. At any rate the
case will decide what the poor tor
pedo man has to do to avoid being
guilty of carelessness in shooting a
we'll. We know nothing of the case
only as reported to US by the plain
tiffs' attorneys.

relief, and half bottle cured me
completely. l have had no trouble
