A young couple called at fashion
able boarding house in the west end to
engage board They were from Chi
cago, and the husband had recently
secured an appointment in one Of the
departments. The landlady, an amiable

an, showed the couple the vacant rooms,
and one Of them was finally accepted.
''Now, you'll want references, Of
course . said the young wife after the
terms had been fixed. Then she men
toned the name Of Washington man

sumo r. she inquired. "He is my hus-
bands uncle. -

A BIT OF HISTORY
Applied to Present Conditions, Inter-
esting to Our Readers.

It's a singular thing how trifling an
incident will often change the worlds
history. II the country gentleman liv-
ing in Cheshire, England, had not by
accident been thrown from his coach
into the lap OF young lady, the pair
might never have married, or migrated
to the American colonies. and thus the
world would never have known Of
George Washington as the father OF Our
country. SO it is in the daily life OF
everyone, little things occur which az
feet the future. Mr.. c. r. Goeway,
night baggagemaster on the Old Col
ony road, Fitchburg, Mass. knows well
how fortune smiles at times on the at
flicted, in showing how relief is near at
hand. His experience and advice is
given in the following words. He says:
For twenty years | suffered great
deal with weak kidneys. and the train
OF consequences which always follow
when these organs are either overexcit-
ed or disturbed. When the attacks were
at their height the secretions from the
kidneys were too frequent and caused
considerable annoyance. During the
period mentioned. | used different rene
dies. and may have obtained relici occa-
siOnally from some OF them. but up
until took thorough course Of
the treatment prescribed for Doan's
Kidney Pills. never received any
permanent benefit In addition to
sffcctually checking the last attack

The New Cure for Kidney,
Bladder and Uric Acid
Troubles.

Almost everybody who reads the news
papers is sure to know of Swamp Root.
1t is the great medical triumph of the
nineteenth century; discovered after

list, DR.. kilmir, and has truly wonderful

keep it pure, that's what they are there
for. You are well when your kidneys
are VT ii.
Thousands owe their health and even
life to Swamp Root and thousands more
can be made well who to-day think
themselves beyond help if they will
take DR.. Kilmer's Swamp. Root.

REGISTER and to prove for yourself the
wonderful and prompt curative powers
of this great discovery every reader will
be sent by mail, prepaid, free sample
bottle and with 1t book telling more
about Swamp-Root and containing some
of the thousands upon thousands of
testimonial letters received from suf-
fers cured.
