The bladder was created for one purpose, namely, a receptable for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from . careless local treatment of other diseases, i chief cause. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid-1 neys is the chief cause of bladder troubles, j So the womb, like the bladder, was creat-; ed for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or i disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the blad der, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience manifested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty four hours; a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney and bladder remedy is soon realized. If you need a medicine you should have the best. At druggists fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail. Mention the Independent and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

I CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.] j p er son has to be very careful about drink * n ß much of the water here, according to the old song: The Schuylkill water to drink’s very queer, I fear if they do not soon filter it clear, ' । Philadelphia Quakers will have to drink beer And they don’t like it, you know.” *. * * Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 18. The Season is just closing at this famous seaside resort, and the summer guests are leaving by the thousands. The cool wave has produced this sudden change. The season lasted nearly a month longer this year than usual an account of the prolonged warm weather. But there are still a great many guests lingering here whoare loath to give up the charms and pleasures of the seashore. The “board walk” is yet well filled on pleasant days and evenings with promenaders. Many of the “joints” in the long line of busi ness houses fronting the walk for miles Chave closed for the season. The famous jboard walk is one of the great attractions Aj.wn. It extandH from the “inlet,” or K«>ay, to Chelsea, a distance of about five B niles. On one side is a row of “buei F ness” buildings where may be sei n any & thing from a shooting gallery to a i Damascus bazaar, with bath houses gj every few steps. On the other side of j the walk rolls the grand old ocean. h Like Josiah Allen and his wife, we deTtermined to see the whole business, so '•} we put on bathing suits and went into ’ the surf with the other bathers. The magnificent beach here, said to be the finest along the coast, of course is the great attraction. It slopes so gradually that one may go out for a great distance । and still bo in shallow water. j A Hoosier was sitting down on the I beach watching the big waves roll in I when a gust of wind lifted his hat and ’ carried it off toward the sea. The spectacle of a bald headed Hoosier, a mile away from a hut store, chasing des perately down the beach and into the । Atlantic after his hat may have been very amusing to the spectators on the board walk, but it was not quite so amust ing to the Hoosier. Ho got the hat but Imth the hat and the Hoosier were pretty well drenched with salt water. W hile this same Hoosier was sitting on the sand drying himself and gazing absent mindedly "far out at sea” an im mense wave came rolling up the beach and the first thing he knew ho was thoroughly drenched again, like Me Ginty, in his best suit of clothes. He then made up his mind that ho could “ecc” the "Roa” quite as well at a greater distance and so retreated to the board walk for safety. Atlantic City has a permanent po f about but in the sum mer it is a big town, the population, when the season is at its height, being from 75,(XX) to 150,(MX). The town's advantages as a summer resort are al! that keep it up. W«> ask< dan ohl gentleman what they do bore all wit ter and In* said, I “Oh. we build hotels anil get ready for summer. ' We asked, "Haven't you any I factories?” “< )h, yes,” he said, "we have some factories for making sash and doors j and other building material." W. A. Endlio . Local Briefs.
