Doaton Vtun Didn't Know Ilia Wife.
A friend of mine went lat ly with his
wife to ti church svrvi e in Copley qiiatg.
Coming out. they were separated in the
crow d, but he soon saw her a little ahead
of hila on tin- -idewtrilr. She wa- walking
with a friend, lie recognized herback.
her hair, her wit le figure and her very
gait He saw her p. .tteiuuunale sticking
out of a pocket. "Careless woman ! I'll
teach her a le■-on. ”
He lamo tip softly and -eeun-d easily
the wallet as though he had served ap
preti: . ship at a fashionable sel 'cl for
pickpocket-. Then he wont to the club to
discuss for an hour the religious topics of
the day. At home he heard no weeping;
he saw no symptoms of distress or despair.
The day went by. No complaint. Mon
day night after dinner ho ■ mid not re
strain himself longer. ‘ I forgot to get
any money at the office today. Will you
let me have j.> and some change? I must
go out this evening. ”
Smiling acquiescence. The wife brings
in her jwrtemonnaie. “Will this be
enough. ’’ And yet he had her portemon
nalc that moment in his pocket. Con
sternation Confession. To whom did i
the porteinonnaie belong? It contained
$75 or SBO. Next Sunday the finding of a
pocketbook was announced from the pul
pit. Nobody claimed it. It belonged prob
ably to some traveler who was much im
pressed by the character of Boston church- 1
goers. The huslsind gave the money to
the church. The wife still carries her
portemonnaie as it seems good to her.—

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
wncr and let it stand ’.weuty-four hours ;
as; liment or settling indicates an unheal
thy condition of the kidneys; if it stains
your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble;
too frequent desire tn pass it or pain in the
back ’.so convincing proof that the kid
neys usd bladder are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so of
ten expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills ev
ery wish in curing rheumatism, pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every
part of the urinary passages. It corrects
inability to hold water and scalding pain |
in passing it, or had effects following use
of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled I
to go often during the day, and to get up
many times tluring the night. The mild '
and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-
Root is soon realized. It stands the high
est for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. At druggists fifty
cents or one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and a |
book that tells more about it, both sent ;
absolutely free by mail, if you send your I
address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham- i -
