When one refects on the strife and discord the "fated apple" has brought to us all he could hardly believe it was the source of so much genuine pleaiure % that furnished Friday evening. Miss Jeseie, unlike "Discordia", threw an apple of harmony in the crowd and with her usual hospitality made t be evening an exceptional one.

The Discoverer 4 Swamp-Root at Work in nIs Labcratory. There is a disease prevailing in this country most dangerous because so decep tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by it-heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure or apoplexy are often the result of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell. Then the richness of the blood-the albumen -leaks out and the sufferer has Bright's Disease, the worst form of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the new dis :overy is the true specific for kidney, bladder and urinary troubles. It has cured thousands of apparently hopeless cases, after all other efforts have failed. At druggists in fifty-cent and dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book telling about Swamp Root and its wonderful cures. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.
