Dr. Aymond, of London, advo
cates the substitution of glass for
lint for the dressing of wounds. He
d scribes an experiment with a piece
of thick window glass, the edges of
which were ground smooth. He
smeared the glass with carbolic oil
and applied it to a wound, which
healed quickly without leaving a
scar. The doctor contends that hi
method results in an immense saving
in the cost of hospital practice. It
ia painless and the wound heals
twice as quickly. It also enables the
wound to be examined without the

The Cause of Many
Sudden Deaths.
There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep-
live, iuany suuueu
deaths are caused
by it heart dis
ease, pneumonia,
heart lailure or
apoplexy are often
the result of kid
ney disease. If
kidney trouble is
allowed to advance
the kidney-poisoned
blood -will at
tack the vital organs, causing catarrh o
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a derangement of the kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by a proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, and over-
tomes that unpleasant necessity ot Doing
compelled to go often through the day,
fand to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
.Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
old by all druggists in fifty-cent aud
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and a book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, Dr. Kil
mer & Co., Bmghamton. N. Y. When

offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, b wamr

GREATLY IN DEMAND.
Nothing is more in demand than
medicine which meets modern re
quirements for a blood and system
cleanser, euch as Dr. King's New
Life Pills. They are just what
you need to cure stomach and liver
troubles. Try them. At all drug

I cannot advise any subscription by the Company to the
