ONE -nllF BOTTLE 0f THE
 GREAT KIDNEY RE NEEDY
 ACC0MPlISHES WONDERS

When I sent for sample bottle of Swamp Root, I had to make water every two or three hours through the day and night. Eassed but a very small quantity, but with a scalding and stIaining at the end of each pas sage. Before I received sample by mail I went to our best doctor tand he is second to none in this vicinity) and told him how I felt. He put me up bottle of medicine I was about a week taking the medicine, but was no better than when I began. I then began your sample bottle. and before I got through with it felt change. The scalding sensation did not bother only few times in the middle of the day. I would not have believed such a small quantity would have done so much, but before it was gone learned that our druggist kept Dr. Kilmer's s Swamp Root and so got a large bottle for one dollar. but actually worth one hundred dollars. I only took one large tablespoonful three times day and before 1 had taken one-half bot tie was all right and have been since.
 Gratefully yours,
 GEORGE $. CHAMPLIN.

FETES FOR AGED COUPLES
How Honor Is Paid the Old People
In France by Public
Festivals.

Rheims has just been celebrating
an interesting event. the golden we'd
ding Of 60 old couples, says the West
minister Review.
The fete Is as old as the Revolution.
when 1t first seems to have begun. In
the time Of the directory there were
two fetes, the fete of the old people
and the fete Of the golden wedding.
This seems to have been a very pref
ty affair, to Judge from the account in
the Debats. There was a procession
Of oxen, with their horns crowned
with flowers. followed by children
crowned with violets. by young men
wreathed with myrtle. and old men
with garlands of olives and girls
dressed ss vestal virgins.
At Paris in August, 1897, there was
a great festival in honor of the old
men, who were all given seats at the
Opera. when "a gracious Hebe crowned
their white locks with garlands Of
roses" and the soldiers presented
arms. The idea of the fete was the
encouragement of the family circle.
The old man, who was a happy grand
father, was feted as an encourage
ment to the younger generation to fol.
low In his footsteps.

HEADQUARTERS VOTE
Abba Wins Over Des Moines in
Referendum Ballot of Miners.

Abba has won great victory over
Des Moines, defeating the state CAPT
tai for the permanent location of the
state headquarters of the Iowa Mine
Workers by a majority of between
one hundred and fifty and two hun
dred votes. The victory of the loca
ton carries with it the erection of a
labor temple that will cost in the
neighborhood of one hundred thous-
and dollars The offices will be trans
ferred from their present location in
Oskaloosa to Abba at the earliest con-
venience, the Offices and arrangements
for temporary quarters at Abba will
probably be made before the week
is out.
Only seven locals are yet to be
heard from and these are all small
ones and scattered over the state.
The result of their ballot will not
affect the choice of location. 1t is
thought that some Of these small To-
Gals have not voted.
The vote at o'clock this afternoon
is as follows:

Yesterday I went to native Chris

crossed to the point where Mr.. Grey
asked the bride:
Do you take this man to love,
cherish and obey?' when the young
woman IN the case responded with a
surprising and unmistakable MOI
Mr.. Grey labored with her in an
unoertone. but to no avail. The mar.
rfage had, as usual, been arranged by
the parents without consulting the
daughter But It Is almost an I'M
known thing for a girl to be so bold
and disobedient The situation was
then explained to the assembled
guests. and volunteers were asked to
supply the vacancy. A young woman
promptly came forward and the cere-
mony proceeded as II nothing had
happened
"Afterward the bridal pair left the
altar by different aisles to hold a re-

money for almost anything else except
her clothes.
"Of course love Arthur" said the
hetress Loyalty, and he really isn't

Sally Wouldn't Let TrIhe Like .
Duck Disturb Her Happiness
In Religion.

speaking Of trifles reminds me Of
an occurrence down near my home
some years ago." said Virginia Wis
itor.
In Hanover county lived a Mrs.
Newman, who having occasion to go
up to Richmond left her place IN
charge of two colored girls, Sally and
Betsy, after having carefully locked
up everything she thought the girls
might be tempted to use or eat dur
ing her absence
Now Sally and Betsy were two
risky young things and they decided
they must have company, so they sent
word for two male friends OF theirs to
come to supper. But when they looked
about for the wherewithal for the meal
there was nothing to be had except
that flock Of ducks looked tempting
So one was caught and killed and Its
head and feathers burned In the stove.
After, the feast the party decided
to go to the church, mile or two
away, where revival was going on.
and there Sally fell under the preach.
er's spell and got religion.
"As she neared Betsy the latter
reached forth and plucked at her

Or. Norman Rhinehart Hook.

4 Died, of asthma and heart trouble,
after an illness of few weeks dura-
ton, at his home, No. Sis Eigth ave
nue. west, Saturday evening, June 8,
1911, at $50 o'clock p. M, Doctor Nor
man R. Hook, aged So years, 1 ninth
and ten days. Funeral from the late
residence at ten o'clock a. m, Tuesday
morning, June 6, 1911.
The death of this most excellent
man and pioneer citizen causes wide
spread grief. 1t was not generally
known that he was in poor health and
the announcement of his death comes
as surprise. He was compelled to
leave his practice about two months
ago, and a little later he abandoned
his Offices altogether. The decline
was quite rapid, and the end was not
unlocked for by the friends and those
intimate with the family.
The death of DR.. Hook deprives the
stefan, man we can i'll afford to go
without He has been in active prac.
tice in the medical profession in Os.
kaloosa for seventeen years, since
1894, and had wide acquaintance in
the city and county.
Norman Rhinehart Hook, a son of
Morgan NJ and Sarah Lappen Hook,
was born in Waynesburg, Pennsyl-
vania, April %, 1912. The family
came to Iowa soon after the county
was organized in 1853, and located on
farm in east Garfield township. They
were among the first pioneers of the
country. The family later took up
its abode in Oskaloosa where the
elder Hook died. Doctor Hook, who
was the eldest in family of nine
children, remained on the farm until
seventeen years of age, when he
came to Oskaloosa to attend the old
Normal school. He was studying
medicine with his uncle, the late Doc
tor S. A. Rhinehart, during 1860 and
81, or until the Civil war came, and
he with others of the city answered
the nations call for troops. He en-
listed August 10, 1862 as a private in
Company c, 33rd Iowa Infantry, and
was mustered into the service octo-
Der LIST OF that year at Camp futile,
