tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, brick-dust n sediment in
the urine, head ache, back ache, lame
back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by a proper treatment of the kid
neys. Swamp-Root corrccts inability to
hold urine and scalding pain in passing it,
and overcoines that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through
the day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands TIE highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and =
sold by all druggists in ffty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle and a book that tells all
about it, both sent free by mail. Address,

you something in place of Swarnp-Root-

Shall the Harvest be?
Nothing but leaves.

Unless you wake up and take care of
what you have. If you get any salts
factory returns from your Dairy, you
must keep the flies away from the COWS
by spraying the COWS with Cattle Oil.
If you want to get your hay and grain
harvested in seasonable time, especially
when it is SO hot, you must have
plenty of wholesome bread, pies and cake
for the men and boys to eat which will
necessitate the getting of one or more
barrels of the choicest flour.
AT the same time don't forget the
poultry dividends and success will be
yours.
You must surely come to observe the
manoeuvres at the depot if you maintain
any acquaintance of the place, at the
same time come to the Feed Store to get
that barrel of flour you have been think
ing about so long.
