NOT RECOMMENDED FOR EVERYTHING
But if You Have Kidney, Liver or Bladder Trouble
You Will Find the Great Remedy Swamp
Root just What You Need.

1t used to be considered that only urinary and
bladder troubles we're 10 be traced to the kid
neys. but now modern science proves that near
~ all diseases have their beginning in the dis
order of these most important organs.
Therefore. when your kidaeys are weak or out
of order you can understand how quickly your
entire body is affected, and how every organ
seems to fail to do its duty.
If you are sick or feel badly begin taking
the famous new discovery, Dr. Kilmer's swamp
Root, because as soon as your kidneys are well
they viii help all the other organs &c health
A trial viii convince anyone.

for more sickness and suffering than any other

A posToFFICE NUISANCE
Lovely but Tyrannical Woman Keeps
 the Clerks in Torment.

The thoughtiessness of people having telephones in their homes is the cause of a practice that has grown to be real nuisance to the postofiice em- ployes. Everybody knows that there is of necessity a telephone in the postofiice and it is reasonable to con clude that a postoftiCe clerk would nat uarlly like to be accommodating. It is also an incontestable fact that wom- an can get more favors out of a man than another man can, and most post office employees are men. Women therefore are in the main responsible for the practice referred to which Is practically a telephone mail delivery Dozens of times every day the post office telephone will ring and when a clerk answers some sweet and seduc- tive feminine voice will wait this ques- ton over the wire: "Will you please look in box number steen hundred and thirty eleven and see if there is a let ter in it? If there is I'll come down for 1t but if there is not it will save me d trip"
 There is no man who would not all most break his neck to favor wom- an few times but when a hundred of these ladies get after him every day. he has mighty little time to put in for either the government or the post master. for every answer involves chasing the whole length of the office and back again and the phoning of two messages. There are many men who would submit to physical torture to favor q woman, who cannot afford to loose their good jobs. The govern ment pays corps of husky letter car riers who take the trail as soon as the mail is distributed and those who do not care to utilize this facility should go to the postoffice themselves The boys would like to favor every lady that calls them up but 1t is not one of their duties and they have to work part of the time
