The lirst way Is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way Is from careless local treatment of other diseases. CU1EK CAUSE Unhoolthv urine from unhealthy kidneys Is the chief cause of bladder troubles, sio the womb, like the bladder, was created for one purpose, and If not doctored too much Is not liable to weakness or disease, except In rare cases. It Is situated buck of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience manifested in the kidneys, hack, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort Tho error is easily made and may be as easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty-four hours; a sedi ment or settling Indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Hoot, the great kidney, and bladder remedy is soon realized. If you need it rnedlclneyou should have the best.

Mr. Editor:—In your last Issue ”J. L. 8." in presenting some “his torical facta" relative to tho Confed erate war, apparently the result of his “research into past history," he makes some statements which does great injustice to several gallant sol diers, some of them long since dead. And as I fool sure that he would not knowingly be unjust to a single one of his comrades of “the lost cause." I trust he will state specifically the “past history" he refers to so it can bo corrected. i>. a. t. Swann Paris' Onions. Some of the finest onions that have been on tho market in Gaffney this season were grown in Cherokee county near the Cowpens battle ground by Swann I’aris.
