The Eminent Kidney
and Bladder Specialist.

There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep-
tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by
it-heart disease. pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often the result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad-
vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then the richness of the blood-the albumen
leaks out and the sufferer has Brights
Disease, the worst form Of kidney trouble.
Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the new dis
covcry is the true specific for kidney, bladder
and urinary troubles. 1t has cured thousands
of apparently hopeless cases, after all other
efforts have failed. At druggists in fifty-cent
and dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free
by mail, also a book telling about Swamp
Root and its wonderful cures. Address

steamship Benedict, grounded north of

to be noated. Her cargo of grain is re-
ported as uninjured, and if a board Of

Several human bodies were found yes

PEELED to leave is an error. She is indis-

the work is progressing smoothly In con-
junction with the local relief committee
Major George II. Lse, inspector of hos
p.tals and dispensaries, made favorable
report upon the sanitary condition of the
city. At meeting of the general relief
committee no one was found who would
undertake the job of removing the city's
debris on contract as all state 1t would
be impossible to make a definite csti
mate. The nearest estimate expert
wrockers will make is that it will take
2C00 men nearly 80 days to clear away the
debris ard get all OF the bodies out, and
tlat this will cost 100000.
The board adopted a resolution stating
that it was its opinion that the best way
to solve the problem of clearing away the
debris was to let a contract to some one
to do this work They recommended to
the general committee that this be done.
