What Shall We Do?

A serious AMI dangerous disease pre-
walls in this country, dangerous because
so deceptive. 1t comes on so slowly yet
surely that it is often firmly seated before
we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may
be divided into three distinct stages is
first, kidney trouble, indicated by pain in
the back, rheumatism, lumbago, frequent
desire to urinate, often with a burning
sensation, the flow of urine being cop
ious 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 be-
tween the navel and the water passage,
increasing desire to urinate, with scald-
ing sensation in passing, small quantities
being passed with difficulty, sometimes
necessary to draw it with instruments.
If uric or gravel has formed it will prove
dangerous 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 a remedy ia
nous for its marvellous cures of the most
distressing cases and known as DR.. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root
1t is sold by all druggists.
AS proof of the wonderful virtues of
this great discovery, Swamp Root, a
sample bottle and book of valuable in
formation will be sent absolutely free by
mail on application to DR.. Kilmer & Co,
Binghamton, N. Y. When writing
kindly mention that you read this liberal
offer in The WATERFOWL REPUBLICAN.

Opening of the Post=Lenten Season


We take great pleasure in calling
attention to the two Grand concerts
at the COncordia Opera house, the
first of which will be given on Easter
Monday April 3. The post-Lenten
season of festivities was never opened
under more suspicious circumstances.
The instrumental sol0ists, Messrs.
Bare, violin. and Steindel, cello. both
of the Thomas orchestra. do not
often appear in cities of this size.
Great credit is due to the organizers
of the concerts for bringing them here,
as their object is purely to give our
citizens an opportunity to hear the
best artists our country affords. With
the high expenses incidental to the
movement financial gain is out OF the
question. We should, therefore, free
ly give it our support.
The program of the first concert is
largely instrumental, consisting Of
solos, duets and trios by the afore-
named artists and Mrs c.. r. Field,
of our city, presiding at the piano.
To give variety to the same a sextette
of some of the Concordia's best
voices will render several numbers,
and Mrs. Field will sing two songs
with violin and cello obligatos. The
pieces have been selected with the
view of displaying a wealth of mel
| ody, thus assuring a maximum amount
| of pleasure to all lovers of good
music as we'll as those who possess a
| higher musical education. Such con-
| certs are educational in their results.
| Parents will do we'll to bring their
| children, who for personal accom-
plishment study music.
The seco I'd concert, April 26, will
| consist chiefly in song recital by the
world-renowned song artist, Max
Heinrich, formerly of London. now of
Boston. We will have a more ex-
tended notice of him in a later issue.
The subscription price for the two
concerts is less than would be gladly
paid by metropolitan audiences for
one, as it includes reserved seats for
| both. Seats may be reserved at
Gamm's drug store, and we would adj
| wise that they be procured as soon as
| possible, and that all who have not
done SO, and who love refined and
at the same time popular entertain
| ments, subscribe in advance for the
series. The price is only 81 for both
concerts. The following is the pro-
gram for the first concert:

The City Ticket.

The Republican city convention
nominated a ticket Saturday evening
that will appeal strongly to the voters
of this city as one worthy of their sup
port.
Gust. Buchheit, the nominee for
mayor, is young man who is
full of energy and ambition to
serve the people, and if elected will
devote the greater portion of his time
to a close application of its duties.
He has been a practicing attornev-at-
law for several years, and when it is
taken into consideration the large in
terests in which he is more or less as
socia ted, there seem to be very good
reasons why he should be elected.
F. L. Uttech, who was nominated
for treasurer, has declined to make
the run, owing to business demands
upon his time. He is we'll qualified
for the position, and his friends regret
they are not to be given a chance to
support him.
John Robinson and Ben Zoelle,
the nominees for assessors, ale very
we'll known, and if elected will strive
to their utmost TO administer the
duties of the position so as to give the
taxpayers the best satisfaction Mr..
Robinson is a practical carpenter, and
is therefore thoroughly competent to
estimate the value of all kinds Of
buildings, as well as ground property,
which has always been a stumbling
block to the assessors who are not
familiar with this line of york.
Mr.. Zoelle, the other candidate,
has lived here since his boyhood, with
the exception of few years spent
in the service of Uncle Sam during the
rebellion, and is therefore thoroughly
acquainted with all portions of the city.
Mr.. Zoelle is thoroughly in earnest in
desiring an equitable taxing of real
and personal property, and the voters
of this city can rely upon it that if
they favor him with majority vote on
election day they will have no occa-
sion to regret it.
Taking it all in all, the ticket is q
very good one, and should receive a
large endorsement on election day.
