Chooses a Grocer

Tom Jr., adopted novel plan by
which to choose a grocer. He went to
w. M Reynolds, the Pleasant street
grocer, and waited TO see if he would
be served in his turn, The show of
goods outside and inside the store was
large and attractive, and included all
kinds Of staple and fancy groceries,
foreign and domestic fruits, etc. A
number of people were ahead of him,
and others entered after him. Much
to Tom Jr.'s surprise and qualification,
when his turn came he was courteously
asked how he could be served. He
found that Mr.. Reynolds sold the Bun
ker Hill Boston Mocha and Java
coffees, such as his father liked, and
the celebrated Arrow chop teas, which
his mother always drank. He bought
some oranges and went away convinced
that a firm which recognized the rights
of boy would be equally conscientious
in selling goods w. M. Reynolds, the
Pleasant street grocer, will furnish the
Joneses with groceries.

WHAT SHALL WE DOE

A serious and dangerous disease pre-
walls in this country, dangerous be-
cause so deceptive. 1T comes on so
slowly yet surely that it is often firmly
seated before we are aware OF u.
The name Of this disease, which may
be divided into three distinct stages
is, First, Kidney trouble, indicated by
pain in the back, rheumatism, lumba-
90, frequent desire TO urinate, often
with a burning sensation, the flow OF
urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
If allowed TO advance, this reaches
the Second stage, or Bladder trouble,
with heavy pain in the abdomen low
down "etween the navel and the water
passage, increasing desire TO urinate,
with scalding sensation in passing,
small quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary TO draw
it with instruments. If uric acid or
gravel has formed, it will prove dan
gerous if neglected
The Third stage is Bright's Disease.
There is comfort In knowing that DR..
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder
specialist, has discovered Il remedy
famous for its marvellous cures of the
most distressing cases and known as
Dr. kilmer's Swamp Root.
1t is sold by all druggists.
