About one year ago was taken sick
with terrible pain in my right side. My
family physician pronounced it Appendix

your Almanac and read in it about weak
kidneys. and my back hurting me so
much, thought would try your Swamp
Root and to my great establishment, after
using one bottle, expelled three gall
stones, which weighed I35 grains-just
think of it. My kidneys are not we'll
yet, and so have concluded to continue
with Swamp-Root. Mr.. Schwake, the
druggist, thought that it never was APP
pendicitis and that the doctor had made
q mistake. 1t was no doubt, gall stones
that caused the trouble, or they would
not have come away so soon after COM
mencing with Swamp-Root.
shall always praise DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root to all those who suffer from
kidney, liver and bladder troubles and
am very thankful that ever discovered
such worthy remedy. feel confident
that it will cure me entirely OF all kid

DEEP MYSTERY is YET UNRAvELED

Henderson, Nv, Jan. 10 1t
developed in the examining trial
Of young Thomas Thompson that
his father was killed by bullets
from an automatic gun, which is
different from the one that young
thompson was supposed TO have
had. 0se witness testified to
digging a similar bullet out of
Ae grssnd at the scene of the
tragedy, which explodes the sui
eide theory.
Another witness testified to
seeing two men near the scene of
t&e tragedy. One wanted to go
toward Cemetary Hill, the other
tried to prevent him.
When Thompson left the store
the fatal morning he said that he
was going to hunt his son Tho
mas. He took along vial of
medicine and revolver. Young
Thompson is thought to be. estab
lishing an alibi, and the trial is
expected to leave the case as
great mystery as ever.
Detective Sutton was the last
witness for the Commonwealth,
but his evidence was not consid
aered of great Importance.
The defendant was then placed
on the stand and told his story.
He stated that when his father
was missing at dinner, and he
was sent to look for him, he went
to the graveyard, because he
heard shots there and thought
his father might have been hunt
ing. He was on the stand two
hours. Thompson was acquitted.

delightful entertainments given here

two features of the evening,

SURE TEST OF GOOD MAN
One Who Will Stop to Let Boys Hitch
Their SIeds to His
Wagon.

We say he is a good man who viii
stop and let the boys hitch their sleds
to his wagon. We saw one the other
day. A big smile that seemed to
warm the air around broke from his
face as he waited for the boys to
hitch on. The clatter they made and
their happy voices were as music to
his soul.
Then he drove on, looking back to
see that all was going well. He re.
membered he was a boy once, and
how much delight there was in hitch.
ing on and being pulled. At times
he would laugh outright. He forgot
the s72 he had in his pocket, the pro,
ceeds Of two swine that he had hauled
in. His heart was on bigger things
making others happy. And he thought
of his own boy back at home, how he
would enjoy being with those boys,
and he wished he was.
And so he rode on, smiling and look
ing back, ana occasionally hitting the
horses to make the sleds jerk, and
hear the boys shout their happiest.
