What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls every wishin curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during 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 dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine

Install Additional Equipment.

From all appearances the resi-
dents OF Baraga, and in fact Baraga
county, will no longer be compelled
to seek the hospitals of distant cities
in the hour of need.
During the past few months a
number OF excellent and costly pieces
Of apparatus have been installed in
the office OF Drs. Bucklaud & Power,
which are perhaps the most modern
type OF hospital equipment which is
being placed on the market.
In addition to the. new design of
sterilizing apparatus, of which men
tion was made in these columns a
few weeks ago,a new idea in mechan-
ism for the purpose of blood concen-
tration for microscopic investigation
has been received; also complete
equipment for the treatment of the
eve, ear aud throat.
1t is understood that the outcome
OF the accumulation of these excel
lent tools OF surgery is to be the
erection OF a commodious and we'll
appointed hospital in this village at
near date; and among the most
important features in connection
with its construction will be the es-
tablishment OF an operating room,
the equal OF which cannot be found
elsewhere outside of the largest hos
pitfalls, and the class of surgery
which these gentlemen are preparing
themselves to cope with is that
which come under the head OF the
most dangerous and difficult.
AT present both Drs. Buckland &
Power are among the busiest of men,
and as their field of labor is Of many
miles, it is rumored that the addi-
tion OF a clever assistant is to be en-
gagged in the near future to assist
them in their work.

with vengeance, so much so that

bidders were Ira X. Bush OF Onton-

They both wanted it on account OF
former titles and they offered to pay
the taxes charged up against the

more than grain of sand. Appar-

Eliaz Hartz, who enjoyed a ma
tional reputation as goose bone
weather prophet, and was for years
one OF the most unique characters of
Reading, died at the Friend 8 asylum
at Philadelphia, at the age OF 80
years.
When young man he learned the
science of reading the markings on
the breastbone of goose and fore
telling the weather for the winter
months. About 80 per cent of his
"guesses" were good. Owing to i'll
health he made no predictions dur
ing the last two years OF his life.,
In the fall of 1904, after examining
the bone, he shook his head and said.
This is going to be one of the
severest winters that this section
has ever experienced" He did not
think much Of the weather bureau,
regarding it as useless expense.
"Why spend millions on working out
foolish theories when a goose bone
costs dollar or so?" be declared.
He was genial and cheerful, and ever
ready to tell his neighbors about the
coming winter when he had eaten
his Thanksgiving goose. He usually
refused to diagnose any other goose
bone.
