That country is the richest which nourishes the greatest number of noble and happy beings; that man is the rich­ est who, having perfected the functions of his own life to the utmost, has also the widest helpful influence, both per­ sonal and by means of his possessions, over the lives of others.--John Ruskin. Selflebneee.. Selfishness in some form Is at the foundation of most of our unhappiness and misery. If we could analyze all the suffering in the world and trace it back to its first cause we should prob­ ably find that selfishness was the great­ est factor in creating It. EAST FOX LAKE.

Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, die- courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid­ neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney -trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kid­ neys. If the child urin­ ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis­ erable with kidney and bladder, trouble, and both heed the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold by druggists, in fifty- cent and one dollar stees.
