The old-time negro who used to take off his hat and say "massa," is learning modern methods. In the old days, Nose used to do chores and if he received a dollar or sack of pota- toes, he was tickled to death.
 Nowadays it's different. Nose works on schedule. The other day Mrs. Brown hired him to clean off few pieces of furniture. It was job that would have taken a white man an hour or so, but Nose spent three days at it, coming and going as he pleased. Finally he declared the job done, and presented bill for $3.5O.
 "Why Nose" cried Mrs. Brown. 'Isn't this a little high? The job really wasn't worth even a dollar"
 "No, a'am," said Nose. "It afn't high. Ise working on percentage now, like white man."
 Percentage? What do you mean?

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never
 Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
 Reflected.

Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for it's remarkable record of success.
 An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the as tonishing statement that one reason why SO many applicants for insurance are re- jected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica- tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for . sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.
