Kidney Disease
Kills.
Thousands Never Suspect Thai
They Have It.
It is now generally admitted that diseases of the
kidneys and bladder constitute the greatest source
of disease. Cure these and we remove the cause
of nearly all ailments of the Liver. Blood, Stomach
and Eowels. But the approach of Kidney disease
is so sly and gradual that the first symptoms may
not be noticed. Here are some of the most common
Symptoms of this dangerous disease:
Discolored or dark urine, sometimes excessive
and of pale color.
Unusual desire to urinate, especially at night.
"J3rick Dust" deposits, sometimes containing
albumen and blood.
Swelling around eyes, ankles and abdomen.
Drowsiness and a constant tired feeling.
Pale, hot and dry skin.
Pain in the back, headache, cramps in the legs.
Bowels constipated, digestion impaired.
Rheumatic pains in the joints and muscles.
If you have any of the above symptoms your kid-neys
need immediate attention, and Dr. David Ken-nedy's
Favqrite Remedy should be taken at once.
Do you know what will happen if you neglect these
symptoms? Bright's Disease, most terrible, is
nearly always the outcome. Dr. David Kennedy's
Favorite Eemedy has cured thousands of kidney
disease, and we have the positive proof. It will cure
you. Send to Dr. David Kennedy's Sons, Rondout,

Mrs. Cooper's
Masked Bal
k/r*RS. COOPER'S eldest daugh
ter Florence opened the ball
by dancing the Lanciers with
the King of Spades. Her
bright eyes outshone her diamonds
with their gleam of triumph. She had
certainly done well by persuading her
mother to have a fancy-dress ball It
was the first affair of its kind ever
held in the little town of R., and every-one
was delighted with the novelty.
To-night Florence not only attracted
all eyes to her sparkling beauty, but
also drew them upon the wonder of her
jewels, and she had the best collection
in the county of B. In her fancy-dress
as the Queen of Diamonds she could
wear them all without fear of being
accused of bad taste.
As she led the dance with Lord S.
her old mother smiled from the corner
where she sat among the chaperons.
Florence certainly was brilliant to-night
; lately she had almost fancied
her daughter was losing her freshness—
and that was her third season. Yet
here was one of the biggest catches in
the county looking at her with admir-ing
eyes No wonder Mrs. Cooper
beamed approval. Lord S , under the
disguise of the King of Spades, was
profuse in his compliments ; his eyes
piercing the thin gauze of his partner's
mask did not conceal their admiration.
You only made one mistake to-night,"
he whispered in the pause of
the dance.
"And that?"
"You should have appeared as the
Queen of Hearts."
Miss Cooper smiled. She knew Lord
S. was a terrible bore ; but what a
triumph that he should have come to
the ball ! He, who so seldom went any-where.
To have him at her feet so
early in the evening—why, by the end,
who knows, she might be the promised
lady of his broad lands and money-bags.
Her smile was very tender.
'If diamonds were not trumps to-night,"
he continued, "I would win
you by virtue of my ace." He pointed
to a rare black diamond that sparkled
in his shirt front "
What a beautiful stone!" She
leaned toward him softly—the dance
was at an end^ and tin y were moving
toward the conservatory.
"Evidently he was gratified, and
was beginning.
A most precious one, I can assure
you," when a voice interrupted him.
"Excuse me," it said, "but I think,
as diamonds are trumps, I take the
queen " To her chagrin, a giggling
youth in the costume of King of Dia-monds
claimed her for the waltz.
Mrs. Cooper frowned from her cor-ner.
Her neighbor's voice recalled her
to her surroundings. "What has be-come
of the two young Hunters ? I
don't imagine they are here. They
are always up to such pranks that I
fancy I should know them through
any disguise." Mrs. Cooper agreed.
I don't believe they have come. I
know Florence asked them; they are
such fun. I can't think what could
have kept them awa3'. There are not
so many dances," she added, with
some satisfaction, "for young people
about here for them to give one up
without good reason."
"And such a one," her neighbor ad-ded,
good naturedly. "I never saw so
much gagety before. Everybody so
merry and amused. It was a splendid
idea to have a masked ball."
"It was my daughter's idea alto
gether," Mrs. Cooper answered proud-ly;
"she is very good at thinking of
such things." Her eyes followed her
daughter's graceful figure, and were
pleased to see her again by the side of
Lord S.
I wouldn't be surprised !" The
neighbor nodded in that direction.
Mrs. Cooper smiled.
"He does seem to admire her,doesn't
he?"
'The best match in the country,"
the good-natured neighbor remarked
She had no daughters, and her son
was no eligible party for the Miss
Coopers. They required something
more substantial than good character
with their future hushands. "But
who are these two curious masks ?"
With the sudden ceasing of the
waltz the French windows at the end
of the room were thrown open from
without, and the clatter made drew all
eyes in that direction. Out of the
dark night into the bright room crept
two myterious figures. They were
heavily robed in wide cloaks, with
hats drawn well down over their fore-heads.
In their hands they carried
dark lanterns. They presented a grim
appearance among the gay dresses of
the assembled guests. Laughing tol-lies
and white fairy queens shrank
away from contact with these dusky
fingers.
"They are brigands!" whispered a
startled Ophelia, seeing the gleam of
enormous horse pistols at the robbers
belts.
"Or Dick Turpin !" cried a Scarlet
Pimpernel, hearing the clank of spurs
from heavily-booted feet. But the two
strangers, without seeming to see any
one but the Queen of Diamonds, advan-ced
in the walk of stage villains to her
side.
Laughing, she stretched out her
hand to welcome them, but, unheeding
it, they deliberately raised their lan-terns
and flashed the light upon her
person. A shriek of laughter went up
as, with much ostentatious delibera-tion,
they dispoiled her of most of her
diamonds and placed them in a black
bag which one of then carried by his
side.
"I know who they are," the Queen
of Diamonds whispered to Lord S.,
who looked a little indignant at this
proceeding ; "it's the Hunters ; they
are such funny boys. Fancy them
thinking of such a thing.''
Lord S. laughed.
"That will do, Bob," he said as the
banditti turned to him ; he held out
his hand. "Give the Queen back her
diamonds "
But the banditti were not to be fright-ened.
While one grasped Lord S.'s
hand, the other solemnly robbed him
of his beautiful black solitaire. Lord
S. smiled feebly.
"Don't spoil the game," the Queen
of Diamonds pleaded as the two dark
figures commenced striding through
the crowd in a tnelodramic manner,
robbing man and maid alike amid
peals of laughter.
"I hope they won't get those trinkets
so mixed we won't know our own,"
said a gentle Shepherdess, bereft of
her rings and bracelets ; "though I
would not mind getting some of Miss
Cooper's diamonds in exchange. Do
look at Miss Parsons running away
from the banditti !"
I hope those foolish fellows won't
injure any of the jewelry," her partner
said, rather savagely. It was one to-night
he had put a diamond ring on
Miss Parson's finger. "I hate this
silly foolery. The Hunters are always
up to some tommy-rot or other."
In spite of his ill-humor he had to
smile when the two dark figures paused
before powdered James, the footman,
and, to the poor man's visible annoy-anee
and surprise, with deft fingers
took away his bone shirt-studs and left
hiiii blushing and embarrassed before
the laughing crowd.
He followed the two in their gro-tesque
flight across the room till he
cornered them to whisper :
Look here, boys, don't be too funny
with all those jewels about you. You'd
better give them up before we go into
supper."
But the boys, nodding at him with-out
words, would not be subdued or
overawed ; they glided away and con
tinued their marauding in the pauses
of til» dancejs, till sapper was an-nounced.
Now they would boldly stop
a couple starting on a waltz, and later
appear suddenly behind the chair of
some sentimental young couple who
had believed themselves hidden away
from all eyes.
In the excitement that th« call for
unmasking created as supper was an-nounced,
the brigands were forgotten ;
and when remembered and called upon
were not to be found.
"This is too much of a joke," the
King of Spades spoke angrily ; "that
diamond of mine is of great value.
trusted they would end their non-sense
with the call for unmasking,
but it seems it is not so—do they want
us to play hide and seek with them
now? Some people don't know when
to stop fooling."
The Queen of Diamonds tried to
pacify him, assuring him that the
young Hunters could mean no harm.
They were sure to turn up in a moment ;
probably they were disencumbering
themselves of their heavy cloaks, às
they could not sup as they were.
"James," she said, as the footman
entered the room, "where are the Mr.
Hunters? Tell them I should like to
speak to them."
'Yes, madam," said James ; "they
have only just arrived.''
Behind him two comic figures fol-lowed,
dressed as clowns and panta-loon.
The Clown came hurridly forward.
I am so sorry to be late, bat our mo-tor
broke down, and we could not get
it to go for love or money. We have
been dragged ignominiously here by
an old gray mare. Forgive us for be-ing
late, but I hope the fun is riot all
over."
The King of Spades regarded them
with a frown.
"Come now, young gentlemen that's
enough. We are all tired of your jokes.
Please give us back our jewels. The
fun is over as far as they are concerned.
We all know you intend us to believe
yon have not been here before, and
have not just changed your dress ; but
we are tired of such tomfoolery, and so
finish and let us go to supper." A
faint applause followed, in amazement,
and then looked at the circle of faces
around them.
"What do you mean?'' the Pan-taloon
wagged his gray beard, impati-ently.
"I tell you we have only just
come. Thé man is outside with the
nag still, if you like to interview him."
"James," interrupted the Queen of
Diamonds, and a hundred anxious
eyes were turned upon the staring foot
man, "where are the two masques
dressed as robbers ?"
"O ! They went long ago, madam ?"
he answered. "They told me to tell
you they were sorry they could not
stop for the unmasking ; it was such
a pleasant evening—but you would
understand. Of course,'' James added
cheerfully, "they gave me back my
studs before they went."
It Is the Home Paper They Want.
HE question has often been asked, "Will the country newspaper outlive
its usefulness ?" It is argued that the "city daily" will perform the
mission of the country publication also. Well, the danger is n o t im
minent The country paper has a personality, or call it a soul if you
This is what makes the country paper so dear to the hearts of its read
This spirit can not be infused into correspondence by one who works
merely for the salary.
On account of a certain nervous disease a woman from this section was
forbidden by doctor's orders, to read more than one paper a week. The list to
choose from was a large one. What paper most interested her, think you ?
It was a home paper this patient wanted and she chose the RECORD. The
end of the country paper is not yet.
A former Lititz boy who married a young lady in a distant city, said :
"Although my wife has been in Lititz only once, yet she enjoys reading the
RECORD a s m u c h as I do."
Another Lititz boy working in another state said that his sweetheart—
he didn't call her just that but the meaning is the same—always asks him to
bring the RECORD along when he calls.
Don't Leave the Farm, Boys.
a j H Y do boys leave the farm? It is not because the field is overcrowded,
surely. Most likely it is because they seek the restless life of the
city. But with that restless life comes the evil that seeks an en-trance
into the heart of every boy. Is the gayety of the city lite pre-ferable
to the quietude and peace of the country ? Young man, don't be duped
for a city target.
Surely it must be more enjoyable to live close to mother earth than to be
confined to narrow boundaries of buildings and breathe the air of smoke and
impurity.
As much money can be made on the farm as in the city. Besides, the far-mer
has the best in the land to eat. He knows that his butter is no colored
substitute and that his milk is unadulterated. He knows also that the canned
goods and preserves made by his wife contain no deadly acids.
Sometimes, of course, the farmer meet with calamities, but the same is
true of the "man in the city. But when misfortune, probably sickness, comes to
the man in the city—most of them live up to the limit of their salary—what's
he going to do for shelter and food ?
There is drudgery in"farm life, and that's why some boys leave. Remem-ber,
though, there is drudgery in every walk of life that leads to success. But
the farmer is making rapid progress along the line of labor-saving devices.
Farming is becoming more and more a matter of science, and the chances of
making money are becoming ever better.
The farmer has a free delivery and a telephone and the time will soon be
here when at a little expense electric lights will illuminate his home and roads.
What following is more honorable than farming ? As he puts the money
in his pocket he can feel that he made that money honestly ; that he has
cheated no man.
The farmer is the most independent man on the face of the earth. He is
his own master. He can be absolutely true to his own convictions. He can
please himself. How many business men can say that much ?

They Used to Do It.
At the recent teachers institute held
in the local high school rooms some ex-amples
were given of the old way of
preparing for the visit of the county
superintendent. "We were drilled on a
certain lesson for a month, besides our
regular assignments, when I went to
school," said one of the teachers, "and
when the superintendent came around
and asked which lesson we had to-day,
we had been instructed well enough to
palm oft the old reviewed lesson.
"Also heard of a similar ease, but one
in which the ending was different,"
said another instructor. "When the
superintendent asked which lesson
they had to-day, one child gave the
whole thing away by blurting out,
"Oh ! do you mean our regular lesson
or the one we reviewed?"

One day a prospective buyer was be-ing

his partner was in a quandary the other

over, according to his way of thinking,

room has long been held as one of the
greatest evils of Scranton, and divers
administrations have endeavored to
close them, while preachers from the
pulpit denounced them. It remained
for Mayor Dimrnick to issue stringent
orders on the subject.

life time reared nineteen orphan chil-dren.

The Knock-out Blow.
The blow which knocked out Corbett
was a revelation to the prize fighters.
From the earliest days of the ring the
knock-out blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach
punches were thrown in to worry and
weary the fighter, but if a scientific man
had told one of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region of
the stomach, lie'd have laughed at him
for an ignoramus. Dr. Pierce is bringing
hoBseto the public a parallel fact; that
tln{ sumac's, is the most vulnerable organ
out o f \ h e prto ring as well as in it. We
protect pur lisaSs, throats, feet and lungs,
but the^dsJtefib^we are utterly indiffer-ent

The "Golden Medical Discovery " has a
specific curative effect upon all mucous
surfaces and hence cures catarrh, no
matter where located or what stage it
may have reached. In Nasal Catarrh it
is well to cleanse the passages with Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Eemedy fluid while using
the "Discovery " as a constitutional rem-edy.
Why the "Golden Medical Discov-ery
" cures catarrhal diseases, as of the
stomach, bowels, bladder and other pelvic
organs will be plain to you if you will
read a booklet of extracts from the writ-ings
of eminent medical authorities, en-dorsing
its ingredients and explaining
their curative properties. It is mailed
free on request. Address Dr. R.V. Pierce,
Buffalo, X. Y. This booklet gives all the
ingredients entering into Dr. Pierce's-medicines

they contain not a drop of alcohol, pure,
triple-refined glycerine being used instead.
