Kidney disease is the enemy we
have most to fear as a result of the
feversh restlessness of our much
vauuted modern civilization. 1t is a
treacherous enemy working out its
deadly effect under cover of the
most triaing symptoms, The first
indication of changes in the urine,
frequent headaches, digestive
troubles should be the signal for
prompt remedial measures. Prickly
Ash Bitters is a kidney remedy of
superlative merit; it is soothing,
healing and strengthening, quickly
relieves the aching or soreness that
always appears in the advanced
stages, checks the progress of the
disease and through its excellent
cleansing and regulating effect in
the stomach, liver and bowels, it
brings back the strength and ruddy
glow of vigorous health, Sold by

GOOD ROADS.

Nothing adds to the development
of any country more than good
roads, leading from the farm to the
markets of the country. The pres,
ent road laws are inadequate to aC
Complish all that is needed to builC
good roads, as the young men of the
country between the ages of q aud
40 years are required and expected
TO open roads and keep them
in good order, while the real
estate owner that deserves the great.
est benefit contributes very little by
way of taxation on his property
The laws should be changed so that
the taxable property of the country
should pay a road tax, which, added
to the labor of those subject tc
work on the road, would in a very
short time give us good roads,
Millions of acres of land are held by
non residents who under the pres.
ent law pay nothing and with the
changes proposed they would help
to improve their own property and
iu developing the country. This
think would be just and equitable.

WARNERS'S INFAMOUS WORDS.

"Drunkards, robbers and ravishers," !"
are the soldiers of the United States,
according to John Dewitt Warner, the
New York Democratic leader, in a
speech at Elmira, made about the same
day that Bryan at indianapolis got off
his gag that labor is nenaced by the
Republican party with large army"
SO that they can build fort near
every large city and use the army to
suppress by force the discomfort that
should be cured by remedial legisla-
tion." Warmers blunt insult has in it
not fraction of the mischief of the
smooth, insidious falsehood of his can
didate for president. No more menda-
cious thing was ever said, with more
malignant purpose. from an American
political platform, than this most char
acterlstic remark of Bryan. He knows
perfectly well that nothing can be done
except by congress, that congress can
do nothing for more than two years
at time, ana that congress is power
less with 80 -ooria
