BRIGHT's DISEASE CURABLE.-Per-
sons troubled with Brights disease are in
terested in the experience of DIR. 6. NJ.
Edebohis, of New York, in the cure OF
chronic Bright's disease by a surgical
operation. The operation, which consists,
it appears, in the removal of one or both
of the kidneys, was first performed by
DR.. Edebohis with the deliberate pur-
pose of bringing about cure Of the dis
ease when it had become chronic, in
January, 1898. The patient, agirl of 20,
is now alive and well. A table is given
in the Medical Record of March 2S OF
nine chronic cases cured by operation.
These nine remain cured at periods OF
time varying from one year and nine
months to over ten years after operation.
Some of the cases were far advanced. Ot
IL cases operated on in 1902 but died
and the rest are 30 far doing well. 1t is
deduced that chronic Brights disease in
its earlier stages is curable by "renal de-
capsulation," and the operation in COM
petent hands involves 'little or no risk
of life"

How to Ward on an Attack or
rheumatism.

'For years when spring time came on
and went into gardening, | was sure to
have an attack of rheumatism and every
attack was more severe than the preced-
ing one," says Josie Mcdonald, of Man,
Logan county, West Virginia. 81 tried
everything with no relief whatever, until
| procured a bottle of Chamberlain s
Pain Balm, and the first application
gave me ease, and before the first bot
tie was used l felt like a new person.
Now feel that / am cured, but | al
ways keep bottle in the house, and
when feel any symptoms ofa return |
soon drive it away with one or two ap-
plications of this liniment." For sale

BRYAN AND INGALLS, MEET.

Mr.. William J. Bryan, of Lincoln,
Neb., arrived in Cincinnati yesterday
morning. Mr.. Bryan went to deliver a
lecture at the Vine street Congregational
Church last night on "a Conquering
Nation" Mr.. Bryan was met at the
depot by reception committee from the
church. and escorted to the Grand Hotel.
Mr.. ingalls,, late candidate on the fusion
ticket. called at the Grand Hotel for
Mr.. BRYAN, and escorted him to the
Queen City Club. He was there given
a luncheon by Mr.. ingalls,. The others
present were: Ex-Judge Judson Har-
mon, who was Attorney General OF the
United States under Grover Cleveland;
Attorney Harlan Cleveland, ex-United
States district attorney and relative OF
Grover Cleveland; Rev. II. S. Bigelow,
candidate last fall for secretary of state
of the democratic ticket; Daniel Kiefer,
Tom Johnson's leader in Cincinnati,
and Judge James P. Tarvin, of Coylng-
ton.
The fact that Mr.. ingalls,, who was
one of the foremost men in the national
democratic party in 1896, which bolted
the regular ticket because Bryan was
nominated on free silver platform, now
seeks him out, may be regarded by some
as one of national Importance.
81 accepted an invitation by wire to
dine with Mr.. Ingalls," said Col. Bryan
"Mr. Ingalls, and | have known each
other for some years."
1t may also be considered as assigniticant
that John w. Tomlinson, of Birmingham,
Ala. who was defeated as candidate on
the democratic ticket in 1900 for COVER
nor of Alabama, and who did much
stumping in the South for Bryan in
both of his campaigns, was in Cincinnati
yesterday.
Mr.. Tomlinson acknowledged that he
knew of Mr.. Bryan's intended visit and
timed his accordingly, but declared that
legal business was his prime reason for
coming.

Prominent Glenwood Farmer Dead.

One of the we'll known farmers of
Glen wood township, Ole Nassett,
passed away on Sunday afternoon at
four O'Clock, death resulting from in
juries received while haying two
weeks ago Friday. Mr. Nassett was
busy moving hay from load with a
horse fork, and the dumping rope
broke while he was pulling it, so that
he fell backward and off the load of
hay, striking on the back of his head
and paralyzing the lower part of his
body. Physicians from La Crosse and
other points were sent for, but moth
ing could be done for him, and he
died on Sunday, leaving a wife and
seven childcen to mourn his loss, who
have the sympathy of all. The funeral
services were held yesterday afternoon
from the Washington Prairie church.

The Angel of Death.

The death angel entered the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Dan Shea last Satur-
day morning and removed therefrom
Marjorie, their eleven year old daugh-
ter, after illness with acute tonsilitis.
The little girl had taken severe cold
which settled in her throat, and as
she had been subject to throat trouble
for some time the case soon became an
aggravated one, and everything that
could be done to relieve her suffering
seemed of no avail She passed away
on Friday evening, and was laid to
rest Sunday afternoon in the Catholic
cemetary, Rev. FIR Have officiating,
the remains being followed to the
grave by long line of teams, bearing
sympathizing friends She was a
sweet. kindly dispositioned and good
natured child, and her taking away is
a sad blow to the family, who have
the sincere sympathy of their many
friends.

SYSTEM OF ACCUMULATION.
Something of the Methods Employed in
Selecting and Purchasing Large
Stocks of Merchandise.

The other day we happened to drop
into Ben Bears clothing store, and
found Mr.. Bear laboriously wading
through large pile of cloth samples
and in response to the question he in
formed us that he was doing just what
he had been doing for a couple of
months past-selecting patterns and
qualities for his fall and winter stock
of clothing. Some months in advance
the large manufacturers samples of
the cloths which they will use in the
next seasons manufacture, and from
these selects those which he desires
made up for his trade, and then sends
in his orders to the manufacturer, and
the goods are made into suits and
overcoats. He also showed us large
ledger book which he had filled with
notations of his orders from the many
different houses, and in each instance
the qualities, styles, prices, and max
ing were indicated to the minutest
degree. This impressed US as being
one of the prime secrets of Mr.. Bear S
great success as merchant. He is a
worker Few men ever see Mr.. Bear
idle. From early morning to late at
night he can be found somewhere,
either in or out of his store, not at
pleasure, but doing something either
for himself or some one else. And his
customers get the benefit of this in
dustry and careful supervision of
every detail of his business
Next Saturday evening he will start
for New York City on his fifty sixth
semi annual purchasing trip. During
the heated season of the year there is
little pleasure in such journey. He
will spend couple of weeks or more
among the manufacturers in personal
orders. and by ordering in advance of
other dealers, purchasing in large
quantities for spot cash, and systema-
tizing his work, he saves for himself
large sums of money, which in turn is
also great saving for is trade, for he
has always made it rule to give his
customers the benefit of his ex-
perience and his resources. The re-
suit Of all this is that DEBORAH mas a
clothing establishment on a par with
the large concerns of Chicago, Mime
apolis, st. Paul and the other large
cities For they do not possess advan-
tages in purchases over Mr.. Bear, and
their expense in conducting business
is much greater than his.
1t is indeed pleasure to examine
the method employed by Lir. Bear ane
his assistants in accommodating such q
large stock of goods for their retail
and wholesale trade, and to note the
extreme care in the selection OF
qualities and styles, having uppermost
in mind the wishes of the people and
the consequent desire to satisfy that
wish in every particular. That the
store of Mr. Bear comes about as near
to this as is possible is evident from
the ever increasing trade it enjoys.
