N\ ^ JOHN HfeNDftiCKSTT Matter of A*toru«y Hfudriuk. ^ , • Aw«» »t Woodstock. ' riarv^ifd Herald: Mrs, John Hen dricks, mother of Attorney C. J. Hen­ dricks, passed away ou Monday evening at the family home at Woodstock, where she hat} been ill for some time. Two weeks ago she sustained a broken hip bone in a fall from the porch at home, and the shock following this and other ailments setting in hastened the end which had been expected since Sunday evening, when a change for the worse suddenly presented itself and she failed gradually until the summons came at 4:46 Monday afternoon.

Her maiden name was Jo­ hanna Larkin and she came to America in 1851, her parents, who were pioneers of northern Illinois, locating on a farm in eastern Lake county. In 1861 she was married to John Hendricks at Spring Grove, McHenry county, where they resided until 1897, when they moved to Woodstock in order to be with other members of the family who had become residents of the county seat. Mrs.' Hendricks was a home-making, home-loving woman, devoted to her family and attending to those duties committed to her card with exactness and winning the good will and respect of those with whom shp came in con­ tact. Beside the aged husband, to whom her death comes as a great blow, she is survived by two sons and two daughters, they being C. J. Hendricks of this city, F. H. Hendricks, Elizabeth, wife of Judge D. T. Smiley, and Sybil, the latter haying made her home with her parents. The funeral services were held Wed­ nesday afternoon at the Hendricks home at Woodstock, Rev. S.-C.

Th Are Unhealthy KMaeys Make lalpure Blood. Weak and unhealthy kidneys are re­ sponsible for much sickiaess and suffering, therefore, if kidney trouble is permitted to continue, serious re­ sults are most likely to follow. Your other organs may need at- tciiiiOQ, but your kld- neys most, because they do most and should have attention first. Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out of order, you can understand how quickly your en­ tire body is affected and how every organ seems to fail to do its duty. If you are sick or "feel badly," begin taking the great kidney remedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. K trial will con­ vince you of its great merit. The mild and immediate effect of Swamp-Root, the great kidney and bladder remedy, is soon realized. It stands the highest because its remarkable health restoring properties have been proven in thousands of the most distress­ ing cases. If you need a medicine yon should have the best. Sold by druggists in fifty-cent and one-dol­ lar sizes. You may have a sample bottle by mail free, also a pamphlet telling you how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. Mention this paper when writing to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Don't make any mis­ take, but remember the same, Sw^tnp- Root, and don't let a' dealer sell you something in place of Swamp-Root--if you do you will be disappointed. EXECUTOR'S NOTICE.
