ONE OF TWO WAYS.
' The bladder was created -for one
purpose, namely, a receptacle for
the urine, and as such it is not liable
to any forov of disease except by one
of two wava The first way la from
imperfect action' of the kidneys. The
Second way is from careless local
treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the
bladder, was created for one purpose
and if not do tored too much is not
liable to weakness or disease, ex
cept in rare cases. It is situated
back of and close to the bladder,
therefore any pain, disease or incon
venience manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage is
often, by mistake, attributed to fe
male 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 twentv four hours; a sidi
ment 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 phamphlet sent
free by mail, upon receipt of three
two-cents stamps to cover postage
on the bottle. Mention, The Courier

THE LOSS OP THE MAINE.

fashioned doses of blue-mass and
nauseous physics to the pleasant little
pills known as De Witt's Little -Early
Risers. They cure constipation, sick
headache, and biliousness. J. De

The old Man's Grasshopper Scheme
Cured the Mule.; . . v
"I was riding along a roaclin Mc-
Cracken county, Kentucky," remark
ed a traveling salesman, "wheal saw
a mule running 'toward me with a
singletree dangling at his heels.
With great difficulty I J succeeded .in
turning out of his way, and he con-
muec to go down the hill at a lively
pace.
"About a mile further on 1 'saw
two front wheels of a spring wagon,
and a shore distance away the othr
wheels and the wagon-btx, "I looked
around to see if Hhe driver had been
hurt, but jfinding no one, 1 drove on
rapidly.
"In a few minutes I met a man
walking down the road rather has

" 'Stranger,' he queried, 'did you
see a mewl down thai?'
"'Yes.'
" 'Did he havi a rag over his
year?' "
" 'I didn't see any.' " . .
