The memory of the oldest inhabitant doesn't run bark far enough to recall the time when Sykes' hat store wasn't located in the room next to that ou the corner of the a'ley on Main street,, between Fourth and Fifth, but it will be there no longer.

James Hunter celebrated his twentyfifth anniversary In business in this city on Tuesday. On September 21st, 1872, he opened a gents' furnishing store in a small room adjoining his present store, at what was then called 157 Main street. He came here from Indianapolis with Charles Maguire and opened a store that was a revelation to the young men of Terre Haute of those days. They were young, drossy, and wide-awake, and their store soon became headquarters for the young men who were prominent in business and social circles. Maguirc remained here but a few mouths, and then weut. back to Indianapolis, where he prospered in business and is now on« of the leading merchants of that city. Their location in Terre Haute was an accideut. They had decided to locate in Brand, but when they arrived there they found the town too slow for them, came on to Terre Haute the same evening, looked over the ground and decided to stay. The furnishing business prospered, and in 1870 Mr. Hunter opened up a small laundry. He gave it the same Attention ho had given his other business, and it grew, removal after removal being necessitated to accommodate the growth. When he leased the entire second floor of the old Howling hall building many persons thought ho had undertaken more than he could carry out, but developments showed them to lie wrong. That immense place finally •became too small to handle the business in the right manner, and Mr. Hunter then decided to build for himself. Last month he moved into the new building at Sixth and Cherry, which |s the most oomplete and modern laundry /building in the entire country. It is notaable that of the men who were in business in the block on Main street, between Fifth 1 and Sixth twenty-five years ago, but two of them are still doing business at the old st-and. There are J. T. H. Miller and N.
Boland.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or coamum wis,'* uriuantl let it twenty four honro: a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so often expre«M»ed that Dr. Kilmer's SwampRoot, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of ^the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soou reaHxed. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing caws.
