travelling Mans Remarkable
Statement

Several years ago I was troubled
with Brights Disease, which worried
me a great deal as my father who
had doctored long time with the best
doctors OF Kendalville, Ind, without
relief or cure, died Of that dreadful
disease. Having been around my
father most Of the time during his
Illness, / became familiar with the
symptoms OF Brights disease.
When ] had my first attack my face
became swollen and all grew black
before my eyes and / felt as though
there was little hope for me. After
having several OF these attacks. be-
gan taking DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
which my wife recommended to me
and noticing some Improvement con-
tinued its use for one year, never
missing one day but taking same as
regular as though a physician was
prescribing for me- MT
1t is now two years that / discon-
tinued the use of Swamp Root az /
consider myself absolutely cured OF
any trouble. having had no use for a
doctor or any other medicine and have
been able to resume my position on
the road.
/ fully believe that had my father
taken SwampRoot in time, he would
have been alive today and we would
have been saved many a big doctor
bill
l believe that If people afflicted with
any kind of kidney or bladder disease
would take Swamp Root in time and
use II regular they would cure them
selves and save much suffering as well
as big doctor bills.
/ feel very grateful towards your
medicine and never fail to tell what
Swamp-Root did for me.
You are at liberty to use this testi-
mony at any time.
Yours very truly,

ations have been completed by Supt.
@. w. Hanna, OF the city schools for
medical inspection of the pupils of
all the city schools, beginning today
That Valley City should take this
important matter up is compliment
to the enterprise OF the supertntend-
ent and the board Of education, as II is
now one Of the two or three schools
In the state to have such inspection.
Even in the other schools, the inspec-
ton will not be so complete as II is
here
Contagious disease and physical
disability will be closely watched for
by the examining physician, who will
he employed by the year for this work.
Where pupils are found to be deficient
physically. in certain respects, 1t will
be possible to outline school work
which will tend to help build them up
physically, rather than injure them.
A full record will be kept of each pupil
from time to time, and this will be
valuable in determining the improve
ment or deterioration Of their physi-
cal condition.

Wonder Of Surgery Keeps Increasing.
The discoveries many years ago that
the skin OF one person, in healthy
condition, can be grated on another
person, and that the blood OF one can
be transfused TO another, are leading
to marvellous results. The wonder Of
science probably was never 20 strik-
ingly illustrated to the country as in
the case OF Mrs. Luke Lea and her
senator husband. There had been
many other transformation, but the
prominence OF the senator and his
wife accumulated the miraculous char
acter of the operation.
An eminent surgeon In New York
has proceeded still further with the
physical interchange idea, says The
Washington Post. There was brought
to him some months ago a woman who
was suffering intense pain a. q result
OF a decaying bone near her instep.
II was feared that the leg would have
to be amputated. The woman said
that she would prefer tt die, and the
surgeon set about saving her life BY
some other means than amputatton.
IT was agreed by the surgeon and
HIS conferees that il q live bone from
some other percon could be obtained
1t might be transpianted. so to speak.
and would save the patient'a life.
He heard OF man suddenly killed in
railroad accident. whose bodv had
not been claimed. A piece az bona was
removed and placed ia solution Of
salt, which in turn, was placed ia cold
storage. When the time for operating
came, the decayed bone was removed
and the healthy bone that had Scen
taken from the dead man wan fnanrksd

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-A Chinese
l~aundryman, who had been compelled
to pay $40 for q laundry license in
Montana, today caused the supreme
court of the United Stated to do q
lot of thinking. Quoug Wing, the
Chinaman, was not present in court,
but an attorney looked after his inter.
ests. Quong Wing wanted the court
to declare unconstitutional the Mon.
tsna statute requiring q license fee
from males operating hand laundries
in the state. If Quong Wing succeeds
in this desire. he will get his go back
and be saved the necessity of paying
$40 annually into the treasury of Lewis
and Clark county. The Chinaman
takes the position that the law makes
such an arbitrary classification for
purposes of texation that he lie denied
the equal protection of the laws,
guaranteed him under the constitution
Quong Wing believes he Is not

a fresh air 1end. No matter what
the weather he always insisted on
having the portfolio over the table
open. 1t was no use to argue with
him. but one day when the seas were
very high and the ship pitching anc
rolling I ventured to demonstrate. He
was up in arms in a minute. You are

open that port I did. The soup
course was served in safety. Then l
asked him If he would have fish. OF
course l WILL he snapped. And Ill
have it in a hurry. Don't keep me
waiting all day.
"Just at that moment an unusually
big sea rolled by-that is, part Of it
did. A goodly portion came through
the portfolio, soaking the old man and
depositing on the table in front of him
a live fish. No waiter on board of
ship had ever served an order so
quickly before. But l didn't get any
