The Buena Vista Times of Friday
saws: Mr. w. E. Williams went to
Stuart's Draft last Monday night so as
to be present Tuesday morning at the
organization of the bank, which will
soon be doing business.
The stock for the bank has been
placed during the past few weeks by
Mr.. Williams and Mr.. R. II. Willis
among the farmers and business men
of that community. who have all taken
deep interest, in the matter. No one
was allowed to subscribe more than
five shares. but even with this limit
the amount of ten thousand dollars,
which it was originally proposed to
raise, was greatly oversubscribed and
| it was necessary to sell more stock.
Stuart's Draft is the shipping point
for a wide section of country. They
need bank badly and there is little
doubt that this venture will not oily
be convenience to the local people,
hut will pay those who Lave put money

lCATARRH of the kidneys is very
~ much neglected disease.
1t is not until the disease has q firm
hold upon the kidneys that the patient
| begins to realize that there is some de.
rangement of these organs.
The slight backaches, the feelings OF
lassitude, and other warning symptoms
of kidney disease are overlooked.
They are not serious enough to detan
the patient from his regular work.
Even when he discovers that the kid
news are affected, he does not recognize
the difficulty as being caused by ca
tarrh.
Catarrh is sometimes so very gradual
in its approach and its earlier symptoms
cause such slight discomfort that. ii i,

However, when it is once firmly seated
in the kidneys, it becomes a difficult
disease to exterminate.
Indeed, catarrh of the kidneys Is more
serious than catarrh affecting some OF
the other organs Of the body.
In the kidneys, tits liable to terminate
in Bright's Disease or diabetes, both of
which are recognized as very serious
ailments, if not fatal.
The thing to be done, when catarrh OF
the kidneys is discovered Is to take
some internal, systemic catarrh remedy,
one that reaches the very source OF the
catarrh and removes the cause Of the
difficulty.
Such remedy has been found in
Peruna. 1t reaches catarrh, no matter
