Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unheal thy condition of the kidneys; if it stain* your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble, too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kid neys and bladder are out of order. . What to Do. There Is oomfort 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.

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 address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham ton, N. Y.

The dividend additions paid to the estate were 189 per cent, of all the premiums paid for the insurance. Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings | Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety'-four.
