»R. KILMER’S SWAMP-ROOT CURED ME. GRAVEL! GRAVEL! GRAVEL! LARGE AS A GOOSE EGG. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Gentlemen:-"! was under the care of different physicians for nearly two years; tried every doctor in our town continued to suffer and decline until I was a physical wreck.

The most learned physic- ' ians made examinations ! and pronounced my case one of Gravel or Stone ■ in the Bladder, and said that I would never be any i better until it was removed , by a surgical operation. I * Oh! I thought what next? '

Every one felt sad; I myself, gave up, as an operation seemed to us all certain death. I shall never forget how time- ■ ly the good news of your SWAJIP-ROOT reached me. I send you by this same mail a sample of the stone or gravel that was dSs» solved and expelled by the use of your 1 SWAMP-HOOT. It must have been as large as a good sized goose egg. I am feeling as well to-day as I ever did. I kept right on using ■ SWAMP-ROOT, and it saved my life. If any one doubts my statement 1 will furnish proof.’’ Laeorne Bowersmitb, Dec. 26th, 1892.

A hopeful exchange says: “Times may be, and in fact are, a little blue just n<»w, but there will be a grand rush |of business later on.

With care in pressing, says the

i Vidpar iiso Messenger, the leaves will ■ keep al! their beautiful coloring. First, | let the leaves be very fresh, not at all j dried ; in short time they should have tho appearance of just being taken from the ; tree. After they are gathered and carj ried home they must be placed between foldsofa newspaper. Blotting paper is better, but it it not so easy to get big ■ sheets of it and wo do not wish our ; leaves to bo any trouble to anyone be 'sides ourselves. The next day the leaves must be put in fresh papers and i the third day they can be taken out al i together. The next and last step is to . iron them. This is done with a hot iron and a wax caudle. The iron is rubbed over the candle and is then hastily passed over each leaf, with a fresh rub for every two leaves. All will be very shiny as if made of wax and they will keep their color perfectly until dust has had time tosettle upon them, Autumn leaves are prettiest if gathered in sprays instead of seperately, and they are much easier to handle when it comes to arranging them over a looking glass or around a picture.

c People who think it is wicked to pla^ cards are apt to do one thing that, it worse to entertain guests—they brinj out the family album.—Atchison Globa The Milford Mail says: “The Maj editor is personally acquainted with tiff Eva Flint arrested for complicity in the Kessler robbery. In fact she had the honor to be raised in ClarksviPa two miles south of our native lair. As we knew her or rather saw her, as she walked back and forth from Edgerton to her home, she appeared a large strong damsel with red cheeks, thick lips, not altogether unhandsome, but, the very personification of animality and healthy, sensuous vitality. Wo should have picked her for the buxom wife of some small farmer; but here she is notorious and with fame fairly thrust upon her.” |

An Easy Experiment to Make. i Jeffersonville News: Last year y l ' ■ the purpose of getting ahead with work Mr. Poindexter plowed ifr land in one. of his orchards late in* “ IS season, well on towards winter. TT year they noticed that the fruit in ti w piece was entirely exempt from the ch r culio. Col.

For this reason he ’ ! now tn ing the experiment of late plo' ing in his orchards.

God, by the help of New Heart Cure all that

is past and I feel like another woman. Be- ; fore using the New Heart Cure I had taken different so-called remedies and been treated by doctors without any benefit until I was both discouraged and disgusted. My husband bought me a bottle of Dr. Miles’ New Heart Lure, ano am happy to say I never regretted it, as 1 now have a splendid appetite and I sleep well. I weighed pounds when I began taking the remedy, and now I weigh 13014. Its effect In my case has been truly marvef- ; pus.
