The McHenry Blues go to Johnsbnrgh next Sunday, where they will meet the team that represents the German town. Altho the locals have not been in a con­ test this season, the boys feel certain that they can hold their opponents down to » respectable looking score and will try hard to -win.

Many sudden deaths are caused by it---.heart dis­ ease, pneumonia, heart failure or (r apoplexy are often the result result of kid­ ney disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to advance the kidney-poison­ ed blood will at­ tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of the bladder, brick-dnst or sediment in the urine, head ache, back aclie, lame back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous­ ness, or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell. Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and better health in that organ is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kid­ neys. Swamp-Root corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often through the day, and to get up many times during the niglit. The mild and immediate effect ©f Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest be­ cause of its remarkable health restoring properties. A trial will convince anyone. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have a sample bottle and a book that tells all about it, botli sent free by mail.
