The hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow, parsnip-colored complexion indicates it. A physician would ask if you had rheu matism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate often, or a burning or scalding in passing it; if after passing there is an un satisfied feeling as if it must be at once re -pe&ied, or if the urine has a brick dust de posit or strong odor. Wh&n these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in removing the cause. Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments, or may run into Brig ht’s Disease, the most dangerous stage of k idney trouble. Dr. Kilmers Bwamp-Rc A, the great discovery of the eminent kidney and blad der specialist, is a positive remedy for such diseases. Its reputation is world wide and. it is so easy to get at any drug store that no one need suffer any length of time f< w want of it. However, if you prefer to first test its wonderful merits, mention The Middle Georgia Farmer, and write to Dr. Kil mer & Cb., Binghamton, N. Y.. for a ■ample bottle and book telling all about it, both sent absolutely free by mail. MALSBY & COMPANY, 39 8. Broad and 32 and 34 8. Forsyth Sto., % General Agents f0r....

Mr. Banks paid all the premiums m cash, and he did this for fifty-four years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to mves. these for his benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,233. Issued March 5,1845. 000 * Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. -L-ue run. Original insurance in 1845, /Dividend additions paid in 1898, '* * Amount of death claim 41V.028>00 54 Premiums paid by insured * jP*”* Realized to estate over premiums paid $&388.00 Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2|) per cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from so,uv» at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94. The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent, of all the premiums paid for the insurance. 1 . Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety*-four. He appreciated the power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of his method oi investment—a result that has never been equalled by a policy holder in any other company in the world.

A Prominent Physician. A prominent New York physician in disco swing the merits of Ripans Tabulea with a brother M. D. said: Several yean ago I asserted that if one wished to become a philan thopist, and do a beneficent deed— one that would help the whole hu man race—nothing could be better than to procure the Roosevelt Hos pital prescription, wkith it tkt batit of tht Rifatu Tabulet, and cause it to be put up in the form of a ketchup ano distributed among the poor.’’ Ssdea Increasing. The largest retail drug store in America is that of Hegeman & Co. on Broadway in New York City. A reporter who went there to learn Aivyuiwa WMV wvv how Ripana Tab ules were selling bought a flve-crat carton and asked: “Do you have much call for these?” 7 He waa referred to a gentleman who proved to be the head of the depart- ment. He said: The aale of Ripens Tabulee is constant and is increasing, due especially to the influential character of the testimonials in the daily press, and growing out of these, through the recommendation of friend to friend. Satisfaction with them is very general When race they are begun I notice that a perms- mt customer for them ia made. This, 1 believe, ia through their intrinsic merit, which proves the bona fide chavaatef of th* advertteing. I think them specially useful in the general run of stomach troubles.” a »■ «i j u smarn wmmina wv mmjw vsgwf astetem* ypr ffimp to sew for ml* M aooM drag rtorea voa nva cwrrn. nfotow yrtordaortla IntaaaaaryUMpoorqad tba •eoaoniicaL One doaen ot *>»» *v« °»* mW CD* Vtoaijl ** aed y Sy m**tog Smsp eightewtetoSto Rmem Chcocai.CoKr-irv.K<xMfomee StryqKewT<yk-ore <navamnrawfflbeeentforflvee«tt.. r^AWTAX^^yefoobeMdef^megrogn, grnml etoookwpere, ■»>»>««»« and at eomeUsßortoorwaßd barter thoje.
