Kidney Trouble.

Mr.. Yeisley was much discouraged till
a friend recommended DR.. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy and it cured him.
Mr.. Yeisley writes:
"My kidneys and liver were In bad
condition and was anxious for relief.
I had tried many remedies without
success bought bottle of Favor
tie Remedy which effectively proved
its merit. The best proof that it has
completely cured me Is my recent &C.
ceptance by four different life insur-

The Rev. Mr.. Yeisley Is the pastor Of
the First Reformed Church of St. Paris,
Ohio, and is as we'll the editor of the St.
Paris Dispatch.
There is no question that DR.. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is the best
and surest medicine in the world for dis
eases of the kidneys, liver, bladder and
blood, rheumatism, dyspepsia and chronic
constipation, as we'll as the weaknesses
peculiar to women. 1t quickly relieves
and cures inability to hold urine and the
necessity of getting up number of times
during the night and puts an end to that
scalding pain when passing urine.

CHURCH NOTES.
Because OF the severe thunder storm
OF Sunday even ny, only Is made an
appearance at Christian Endeavor
The number was not SWelled for the
evening service. The efficient presi-
dent, J. G. YutZler, took charge of the
Christian Endeavor service and very
interesting and enjoyable meeting was
the result. Three Of the juniors, the
Misses Lillian Smith, Florence Yutz-
Ter and Ella Tully. who had song
prepared, braved the storm and very
sweetly sang their song without the
music, as the Organist who had the
notes, was absent. At the evening
service the audience gathered in the
front seats and Rev Mr. Stackman gave
an excellent sermon on the text,
serve" saying he believed those who
braved the weather on such night
deserved the best.
SATISFIED WITH THE RAINFALL.
The last report of the State Board
of Health gave shortage of several
inches in the rainfall. This is doubt
less due to the dry season in the south
ern part Of the state as we have GER
tainly had rain enough throughout
this section. Anyway the fall on last
Sunday evening should lessen the de-
ticiency somewhat if not entirely.
