But if you have weak kidneys“ bind
er trouble or distressing kidney com
plaint, then Swamp Root will prove to
be just the remedy you need. Too fre- I
qutnt desire to urinate, scanty supply,
pain or dull ache in the back is con
vincing evidence that your kidneys and
bladder need doctoring.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain in i
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and ,
every part ol the urinary passage. It
corrects inability to hold urine and 1
scalding pain in passing it or bad effects i
following use of liquor, wine or beer, ,
and overcomes that unpleasant neces
ity of being compelled to get up many 1
times during tbe night to urinate. ;
The mild and extraordinary effect of ’
Swamp Root is soon realized. Itstands
the highest for its wonderful cures of '
the most distressing cases. If you !
need a medicine you should have tbe
best. Sold by druggists, price fifty ,
cents and one dollar. You may have
a sample bottle and pamphlet both 1

IDEA TAKEN VP,
Suggestion For a Monument to Sexton P.
D., Roger Responded To.
The Tribune .55.00
Judge Joel Branham..... 5.00
The suggestion contained in Mrs,
Moore’s tribute published in yester
day morning’s Tribune and suggest
ing a monument to the memory of the
late Peter David Roser, has met with
instant response.
The Tribune starts the fund this
morning with a subscription of $5,
which has been duplicated by one of
tbe dead sexton’s best friends, Judge
Joel Branham.
The responses should and will come
from a grateful people, without solic
itation. The Tribune respectfully in
vite all who wish to contribnte to this
noble cause |to send their names and
the amount they are willing to give to
this office.
A monument should mark the last
resting place of this man. Romans
will gladly give the sum. and ere long
a marble shaft will tell all the world
that the mortal remains of a man lies
beneaths whose memory is held in
tender recollection by the people.
Just try a 10c. box of Cascarets, the
finest liver and bowel regulator ever

BOYCOTTING HOKE.
Negroea Trying to "Get Back” at the
Atlanta Journal Publisher.
Atlanta, Dec. 2. —The boycott of ex
secretary Hoke Smith’s newspaper,
tbe Journal, by the negroes, because
Mr. Smith discharged all the negro
carriers and refused to sell papers to
boys of the negro race, has developed
into a sensat’on which is to culminate
in a monster mass meeting next Sun
day, at which several preachers will
speak.
Mr. Smith says that for the time be
ing he has diepensedjwith the aid of
negro boys, but for tbe reason that
as tbe negroes refuse to be vaccinated
they become large distributors of
smallpox.
As there was no means by which the
clean could be distiueuised from tbe
unclean, he drew a straight line. He
proposes to keep to it until it is safe to
go back to the old order of things.

HEAVY RAIN FALLS
This L action Bas First Bit of Really Bad
Wimer Weather,
THE RAIN WILL DO MUCH GOOD
Downpour Began Early Yesterday Mor
ning and Continued AU Day and
Most of the Night.
This section had its first taste of
geruiue, nasty winter weather yester
day.
When Romans arose yesterday
morning a leaden colored pall of
elouds hung low overhead, and tbe
rain was coming straight down in i
great. Insinuating icy drops.
And so it continued all day and up
to an early hour this morning, only
varying tbe monotony by coming
down harder than before now and then.
It was utterly miserable out on the
streets and pedestrians plodded along
under tbe driving drops of moisture.
Nearly every one was bundled in a
storm coat, rubbers and protected
still more by an umbrella.
The rainfall has been quite heavy
and it will do much good in filling tbe
streams and wells. This section has
been shy on moisture for some months
past, so a few people’s misery will re
sult in a great many more’s blessing.
Tbe meteorological summary for
the month of November has been is
sued. The mean temperature for the
month was 51 degrees; highest tempt -
, rature, 76 degrees, Nov. 15; lowest tem
perature, 29 degrees, Nov. 30. Mean
temperature for the month of Novem
ber for seventeen years, 50 degrees;
average excess of daily mean temper
, ature, 1.6 degrees; accumulated excess
i of daily mean temperature since Jan.
1, 371 degrees. Total precipitation
1.18 inches; average precipitation for
, this month for seventeen years, 3.93
inches; total deficiency in precipita
tion during month, 2.75 inches. Ac
-1 eumulated deficiency in precipitation
since Jan. 1, 12.10 inches. Heavy
frosts occurred Nov, 3,7, 10, 12, and
i 13; killing frost occurred Nov. 17.
Tbe weather man says that we will
have some very cold weather after
this rain, maybe today. So prepare
1 for a change.
It is easy to catch a cold and just
1 as easy to get rid of it if you com
mence early to use One Minutes Cough
Cure. It cures coughs, colds, bron
' chitis, pneumonia and all throat and
i lung troubles. It is pleasant to take
safe to use and sure to take. —Curry-
