DR.. KILMER'S SwAMP-ROOT
IS Not Recommended For Everything.
But If You Have Kidney or Bladder
Trouble 1t Will be Found Just
the Remedy You Need.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind
discourages and lessons ambition; beauty,
vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear
when the kidneys are out of order or dis
eased.
Kidney trouble has become so prevalent
that it is not uncommon for child to
be born afflicted with weak kidneys. If
the child urinates too often, if the urine
sealds the flesh, or if, when the child
reaches an age when it should be able
to control the passage and it is yet af-
flicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it,
the cause of the difficulty is kidney
trouble and the first step should be to-
ward the treatment of these important
organs. This unpleasant trouble is due
to diseased condition of the kidneys
and bladder, and not to a habit, as most
people suppose.
So we find that women as well as men
are made miserable with kidney and blad-
der trouble and both need the same rem

These gentlemen are members of the

ization of 26 persons, who went to
Alaska in April of last year to find gold.
Sixteen of the miners came out June

Mr.. Attridge, leaving 10 members of the
company to look after some so claims
which the argonauts of the company
have staked out in the frozen wastes of
the north.

played at Agricultural Park this AFTER
noon, when they defeated the Millburys
by a score Of q to 8.
Neither team scored in the first inning
but in the second Millbury made three

bases, and Crossman sent the ball away
out over right field fence, sending the
three men in and securing the only home
run in the game. Wolfe proved himself
star man in the first part of the game, but
after Uxbridge secured such lead he
simply toyed with the Millburys. Taylor
made three-base hit which might have
been a clean home run, but was sent back
by his coacher. One feature was relishad
by all; that was the general good feeling
between the two clubs during the game.

LEAGUE SEASON OPENS,
Teams from the Blackstone
Valley Get Down to
Real Business.

The season of the Blackstone Valley
League opened today, and if the same
amount of interest is kept up the league
is bound to be a success. Games were
played in Grafton, Uxbridge and at
Rocky Point, R. I. Owing to the nom
arrival of the official scorer with the
full score of the Rockdale- Baskerville
game at Rocky Point, The Spy is UNI
able to present it to its readers.
Whitinsville went to Grafton and
showed the hill towners few points
about the national game, and won in
canter There was a good attendance
and much interest shown.
Down at Uxbridge there was a good
crowd, and though Uxbridge rubbed 1t
into Millbury numerically, the latter
town is a good loser, and will bob up
serenely in the second game in the
league series next week.
Games next week are: Grafton at
Millbury, Rockdale at Whitinsville, Tx
bridge at Baskerville.
Yesterdays scores were:--
Whitinsville 9, Grafton 5.
Uxbridge 81, Millbury s.
Rockdale 6, Baskerville 2.

BACHELOR HOUSEKEEPING.
How Herbert Spencer Managed at the
Age of seventy-nlne.

Not finding life in boarding house
in all respects suited to his wishes Mr..
Spencer FOR many years entertained the
idea Of establishing himself in a home
of his own in the suburbs of London.
but had been deferred from so doing by
the prospective troubles of housekeep-
ing. In the summer of 1889, however,
after making such arrangements as
promised to relieve him in great meas
ure Of these cares, he finally carried
out the idea by taking a house in the
neighborhood of Regents park.
But though for some years the bach
elor household was a success, we UNI
derstood IL eventually ceased to be so.
though it was continued until
Mr.. Spencer changed his resi-
dence to Brighton two years ago.
There was wanting in those who had
immediate charge Of details that feel
ing Of identity of interests and that
disposition to corporate which belong
to the ordinary family, and as a con-
sequence differences grew up that
could not be permanently composed,
and that on the whole did not conduce
to domestic tranquility.-Pop

THE ROAD TO WARE.
1t Is Favored but No Definite Action
Taken--Tax Rate Decreased.

West Brookfield, July 29-The town is
still excited over the prospects of an
electric road between this town and
Ware. Much has been said and writ
ten in regard to this road, but it can be
stated authoritatively that as yet no
official movements of any description
have been made toward asking for a
franchise by any parties from either
town.
Marcus L. Urann of Easton, who has
asked for a franchise for a road be-
tween Ware and Gilbertville, and be-
tween Ware and West Warren, was in
town Thursday, and drove over to
Ware, over the road from West Brook
field. He expressed himself highly
pleased with the route, and IL through
any cause the road between West War
rem and Ware should fail then the road
between here and Ware would be a GER
tainty
New Braintree and Hardwick granted
a franchise yesterday to the same party
to build the Ware e. Gilbertville road.
and today West Brookfield granted
them the same privilege. This after
noon Mr.. prann Is to meet the select
men of Warren, and on the outcome of
that meeting depends the fate of the
Ware & Warren railroad, so that all the
towns interested are anxiously waiting
the result Of the meeting.

TRUST MEN WIN.
The City Hall Team Loses in the Sixth
Inning.

Inning.
Washburn & Moen g. City Hall S-was
the score of an interesting amateur con-
test on the Sutton lane cricket grounds,
yesterday afternoon. Up to the sixth
inning it looked as though the men from
the city hall had things all their own
way, but in the last half Of this inning
the Washburn & Moen representatives
batted out seven runs, gaining a lead
which their opponents were unable to
overcome.
The city hall men opened well scoring
three runs in the first inning. They were
unable to score again, however, until the
sixth, when they pulled out one more,
which, in addition to three in the eighth
and ono In the last, made total of eight,
which was the best they could do.
The men from the wire mill failed to
score until the. fifth inning, when they
managed to pull out one run, but in the
sixth 1t was different. Several costly
errors and hits when they were needed
resulted in seven runs, which practically
settled the game.
Howe, for the city hall team, put UP
a good game at centre field making sew
eral difficult catches. Lewis, Denny and
and Simonds ENGINEERED two pretty
plays for the wire mill men. The score:
