Notice Of appeal to the supreme
court in the case Of Glenn J. Spring,
administrator of the estate Of John
w. O'Bleness VS.. the Keokuk and Ham
ilton Bridge company was filed with
the clerk Of the district court today.
O'Bleness met his death nearly eight
years ago while fireman for the de.
PENDANT bridge company. He fell into
the river from the engine room door.
James Wilson, the engineer on the
bridge, who could have explained the
accident better than anyone else, died
before the case was brought On for
trial. When the case was finally tried
in the district court here the defend
ant got a directed verdict. A motion
for a new trial was overruled. and
the appeal from that ruling is now
taken.

Kidney and Bladder Trouble
Causes Great Distress

1t gives me great pleasure to recon-
mend DR.. Kilmer's Swnmp-Root to
any one suffering from bladder
trouble.
For four years l was troubled by
hemorrhages from the bladder and
was not able to get any doctor who
could help me. l was in such shape
that sleep at night was impossible on
account Of distressing symptoms
While bending over would be strick-
en- with such a pain that it was i'm
possible for me to straighten up. Mr.
Henry, one OF our leading druggists,
advised DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root; al
though l never had any faith in patent
medicines. as last resort I purchas-
ed dollar bottle Of Swamp-Root. I
noticed decided change and after
using two bottles was completely
cunsd. 1t seemed remarkable that I
should be cured so quickly after being
i'll so long. But since this took place
nearly two years ago, have never
been troubled and would highly ad-
wise any one suffering from the same
trouble to at least give Swamp-Root
trial and I think the results will be
the same as mine.
Yours very truly,
THOMAS A. BENNETT,
Greensburg, Indiana.
Personally appeared before me this
14th day Of February, 1913, Mr.. T. A.
Bennett, who subscribed the above
statement and made oath that the
same is true in substance and in fact

Uric Acid In Meat
Brings R heumatisnl
Says little Salts in water may save
you from dread
attack.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states well-known author
ity. We are advised to dress warmly;
keep the feet dry; avoid exposure:
eat less meat, but drink plenty Of
good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result Of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which Is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast 1t out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also a means Of freeing the blood of
this impurity. In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are
closed thus forcing the kidneys to do
double work, they become weak and
sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric
acid which keeps accommodating and
circulating through the system,
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles causing stiffness, soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the frst twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces Of Jad Salts; put tablespoon
full in glass of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action. thus Kidding the blood
Of these impurities.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleas
ant, effervescent Whitewater drink
which helps overcome, uric acid and.
is beneficial to your kidneys as we'll.

To avoid a collision with another

too late to come to stop or to keep
in very close to the curb when he
turned.
When Mr.. Moore saw the automobile
emerge from behird the interurban
car, he attempted to turn north on
Sixth street instead Of continuing
east on Blondeau. He made the turn
too late, however, and his machine
ran over the curb, breaking both front
wheels, and coming to stop a few
feet farther on, after blowing up some
OF the bricks in the sidewalk inter.
section. The other machine was not
damaged. ..s
