so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, tho great kiuney remedy

It couects Inability to hold mine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad
elfect following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times duting the night to uii
nate. The mild and the extiaoidlnary
effect of Swamp Root is soon iealized
It stands the highest for its wonder
ful cures of the most dlstiessing cases.

that they should always be willing to
allow theli husbands to spend one even

with whom havlnc lhed amongst for
tlie past sixteen years. I deslie to lie
as becomes a good neighbor. As to my
defeat last Tuesday I consider It a
very small mattei as compaied with
the injuiy done me, and I take this
oppoitunity to deny that I chaiged "the
Welsh witli frying to scoop In all tho
boiough olllces," or that I objected to
any foielgn-bom American citizen i tin
ning for any ofllce, and I challenge any
to prove that I said so. I desire to
thank all who suppoited me, not only
In tills but In previous elections, ana
had I had the oppoitunity of contradict
ing the statements In a public manner
before tlie election, I believe I should
have been aB successful at the polls as
I was at the caucus .
