HI London town was visited by a HI | very disastriouB fire , close of last Hi 1 week , in which about $15,000,000 HAJI worth of merchandise was deB - B ' stroyed in the warehouse district | of the world's greatest city. H A controlling interest in the H Chicago Inter-Ocean has been pur- H chased by the great street mag- H ' nate , Charles T. Yerkes. The 1 baron wants to be able to talk H back , if he thinksitnejsssan f HHB B BHakefD H are gathering : into Washington. 1 The session of congress that opens up the first week in December promises to be a very lively and important one , in which the Cuban question and the finance question will likely take a large part of the time. The republicans could not well pick a stronger man for congress ional honors in the Fifth district than Hon. "W. S. Morlan of Mc- Cook. Mr. Morlan is an able man. Were it not for the fact that he is a "sound money" republican , he would find many friends outside the republican party. Hastings Democrat. Correct in all but one particular : I his "sound money" leanings is one of his pillars of strength. "Our minister preached a sub lime sermon on Sunday , " recently remarked a Chicago woman. "I did enjoy it so much. And right in the middle of it I hit on how to have my black serge fixed over. The whole scheme came like a . miracle , and will work out no end of swell. That frock has been such a torment I have had no good of it at all. It hung in the ward robe , a reproach and * a waste of material. Sermons are so bene ficial. You really ought to go to church oftener. I am ashamed that you missed that one last Sun- day.

Health k brings clear complexion , a * \ \ * - ' " ' clear eye , stea dy nerve , elastic step , and graceful movements. A healthy woman is a woman with healthy mucous mem branes. Mucous membranes line the whole body. The slightest catarrh of one of these membranes pro duces languor , sallow skin , listless eye , and weakening discharges. Mrs. Alvina Hanenkrat , Bibb Falls , Wis. , in a recent letter to Dr. Hartman , says : "I was troubled for ten years with chronic catarrh. Jjased Pe-ru-na for about eight Hnths , and I must say that I am Hrfectly cured of the disease. It Hll be two years next June since Hvas cured , and I have not been Hubled with any of my old symp- Hns.

Read What The Ladies Say. For the benefit of the gentlemen who handle Sheridan Coal , we wish to say that we have used Sheridan Coal for over a year in the heating stove in the office , in the grate and for cooking purposes. In all of this time we have never found a clinker. The coal is cheaper than any fuel we have ever used and absolutely without soot , which is a great blessing in a cook stove. We say this without solicitation and from actual experience. We hope if there are any women who have not done so , that they will at least give this coal a trial. Editorial Wom an's Weekly , Omaha.

ONE OF TWO WA YS. 1 The bladder was created for one purpose , k H namely , a receptacle for the urine , and assuch aal l it is not liable to any form of disease except ul H by one of two ways. The first way is from im- * H perfect action of the kidneys. The second ' M way is from careless local treatment of other H diseases. H CHIEF CAUSE. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is B the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the 9 womb , like the bladder , was created for one I purpose , and if not doctored too much is not I liable to weakness or disease , except in rare M cases. It is situated back of and very close to 9 the bladder , therefore any pain , disease or inconvenience - convenience manifested in the kidneys , back , bladder or urinary passage is often , by mistake - 9 take , attributed to female weakness or womb 'JH trouble of some sort. The error is easily made HJ and may be as easily avoided. To fin < l out | correctly , set your urine aside for tiventy-four M hours ; a sediment or settling indicates kidney jH or bladder trouble. 'I he mild and extraordinary - | nary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. ' | the great kidney , and bladder remedy is . H soon realized. If you need a mediant | H you should have the best.
