The Cause Of Many
Sudden Deaths.

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh Of
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
cure is obtained quickest by a proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking Or. Kil,ner's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain In passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to go often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in ffty-cent and
onc-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, DR.. Kill
mer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. Y. on every
bottle.

WOMEN WORST UsURERS.
It Is Said They Are More Merciles'
Than Men Toward Luck
less Borrowers.

Astonishing revelations as to the
methods Of business pursued by wom-
en- money lenders in London were
forthcoming during an investigation
by an Express representative.
It would naturally be supposed that
these women Shylocks would be more
susceptible to feelings Of consideration
towards their victims than the ordi.
nary male usurer. As q matter Of fact,
instances were given in which they ex-
acted their pound Of flesh to the ut
most from the poor wretches who had
fallen into their clutches, and were
hard as adamant in face OF the most
heartrending conditions.
Most of the women are OF advanced
age. and their trade is carried on un-
der the guise of loan, discount OF
banking companies. In one or two
cases the women keep In the back
ground and their transactions are car
ried on by q male representative, but
the majority do all their Office work
themselves.
A clerk who had wife and two
children, had the misfortune to borrow
$50 from a woman usurer. He only re-
ceived $45, the other five dollars being
deducted as an inquiry fee." In II
months he had repaid $120, and hii
creditor then claimed $40 as q balance
He appealed against the extortion, but
the woman went to his house and
using threats and vituperation, created
such a scene that he was glad to gel
rid Of her on undertaking that he
would pay the balance in a month
This he did by pawning one or two
articles OF furniture.
Another married man who had Dor
rowed 500 from woman money
lender paid interest at $3.50 weeh
for 1s months. Then he fell behind II
his payments, and, although he had
paid the loan nearly twice over, he wa.
refused time In which to recover him
self. The consequence was that hi
home was sold, and his wife and chill
dren are now in lodgings.
Several other instances OF stmila1
character were forthcoming. The vic
tins were men who shrank from fac
Ing the ordeal Of q public court, and
preferred to suffer any amount Of per
secution rather than appear before
county court Judge.
The women use methods for collect
ing their money which the most rapa

A short time ago gang Of riveters
was sent to do some work on q bridge
IN course Of construction. They got
lodgings and started to board them
selves: but they began to think the
landlady was helping herself to their
food, SO they thought they would try
and catch her. Seeing new potatoes
exposed for sale at Q grocer's they
bought some, and having counted
them. they gaye them to the landlady
to cook for their dinners. Each man
was to count how many he got; but
to their surprise, when they lifted the
