A large business transaction was consummated the past week in Litch field, William Boecking & Sons having bought the long and well established general hardware, implement, harness, furniture and automobile business so long conducted by George Lang. This is undoubtedly the largest concern in town. The boys are a live bunch and we are certainly pleased to give them the glad hand of welcome as business men of our town and can assure the patrons of our town and community that they will still receive the same careful and courteous attention ac corded to them by George. If you need anything in their line, at least call and see them. They are old friends and neighbors. It will do them good even if you don’t want to buy and you will be welcome. Do this. Obituary. Another of our old timers, Mrs. John Comford, well known, and very highly esteemed by all who enjoyed the priv ilege of her acquaintance, a good neighbor and staunch friend, a woman without reproach. This does no mo.-e than express the feelings of her old friends and neghbors. She has gone on her last trail, but by no means, a blind one. It is lightened by her Sav or's love. Sarah J. McDowell was born in Westmoreland county, Pa., May 4, 1847, and at the age of five yars came to Wisconsin, October 27, 1863. She was united in marriage to John Corn ford in the year 1866.

Twelve children were born to this union, tour of whom died in infancy, and Mrs. Ida Van, who died in 1899. Those who remain to mourn her death are, her husband and three sons and four daughters: Rev.

Two two-year old steers died before the doctor got there and he was travel ing in a Ford too. Clay twonship was a long time in buying road drags, but when they did buy them money did not stand in their way in getting the best there was on the market. You can clean out the ditches and when you get to the center of the road you will have as much dirt as the small graders will handle and the ground will be even all over. Ed Roschnialski enclosed the porch on the west side of Mrs. Cash's house last week. The porch is sided up tight from the bottom three feet and from there up has wire screen. The idea of the porch fixed this way is to get her son, Glen, out in the fresh air and keep him there all the time. Tiie doc tors at the tubercular hospital at Kear ney advised Mrs. Cash to do this. This is one of the best treatments for con sumption there is and has done more to help than medicine. Glen Cash wishes to thank his many friends for their many kindnesses to him and their gifts of fruit and flowers and he also wishes to thank the Ladies’ Aid of Clear Creek for the beautiful bouquet of flowers they sent him and to thank the Farmers Union of Wiggle Creek for the nice fruit they sent. He wishes one and all to know he surely appreciates their kindnesses and he hopes if the opportunity ever comes to be able to repay them. i C. O. Johnson, who got kicked by one of his mules in the stomach while feeding them last Tuesday night, died Friday morning. Services were held at the home Sunday afternoon. A large number attended. Monday he was taken to Aurora for burial. Mrs. Johnson had only lived among us a few years, but in that time had made many friends. The report of his death was a terrible shock to his many friends. Mrs. Johnson and chil dren have the deepest sympathy of the patrons and carrier. Carrier donated two days work with horses dragging the roads from Lars Nielson’so through the hills north of Brodock’s five and one-half miles, last Tuesday and Wednesday. This is the piece of road that had all the dona tion work given on it last year. Who will volunteer to give two days work and drag this road the next time it is needed? One thing, dragging the roads at tills time cuts off the little i weeds just starting. But after they get a start the drag will pass over them. Dragging the roads saves cutting weeds.

All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood. They -work day and night. When healthy they remove about 500 grains Df impure matter daily, when un healthy some part of this impure mat ter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptoms— which vary widely but may include pain in the back, headache, nervous ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatic pains. ;out, gravel, disorders of the eyesignt md hearing, dizziness, irregular heart lebility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits n the urine, etc. But if you keep the liters right the danger is overcome. Doan’s Kidney Pills have proven an iffective kidney medicine. James Johansen, Loup City, says; ‘I was in pretty bad shape with my lack and couldn’t stoop or straighten ip without being in misery. Sharp lains often seized me and I dropped o the ground. As soon as 1 began ising Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured it Swanson's Drug Store, I could tell hat I was being helped. They have lever since failed me.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t sim •ly ask for a kidney remedy—get loan’s Kidney Pills—the same that dr. Johansen had. Foster-Milburn Jo., Props. Buffalo, N.
