In view of the better times , and higher
prices for grain etc. , the publisher ex
pects those indebted 'to The Tribune
for subscription to make good their de
linquencies at once. During the con
tinued hard times and failures no effort
was made to force the collection of sub

will be promptly paid up. Statements
will be sent out to all in arrears and with
the expectation that all will appreciate

WHAT I LIKE.
When cool November comes around ,
I like to take my gun ,
And whistle up my red dog Don ,
And take a day of fun ;
I like to go down by the creek ,
Where the Bob White's love to stay ,
And breathe the crisp 'Nebraska air ,
And stay 6ut there all day.
Then when I get my game-bag full
Of quails so plump and brown ,
I like to take them home to wife ,
The best cook in the town ,
And when she brings them on next day ,
As in their fat they roll ,
I never get a taste of smoke ,
For they're baked with Sheridan coai.

ONE OF TWO WA YS. &
The bladder was created for one pnrpose , H
namely , a receptacle for the urine , and as such j H
it is not liable to any form of disease except |
by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect - H
perfect action of the kidneys. The second mM
way is from careless local treatment of other H
diseases. H
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is f M
the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the j H
womb , like the bladder , was created for one H
purpose , and if not doctored too much is not H
liable to weakness or disease , except in rare ' , H
cases. Itissitualedbackof and very close to j H
the bladder , therefore any pain , disease or inconvenience - M
convenience manifested in the kidneys , back , M
bladder or urinary passage is often , by mis- H
take , attributed to female weakness or womb * H
trouble of some sort. The error is easily made m\ \
and may be as easily avoided. To find out * H
correctly , set your urine aside for twenty-four mt
hours ; a sediment or settling indicates kidney |
or bladder trouble. The mild and extraordi"J H
nary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root , ' mM
the great kidney , and bladder remedy is * H
soon realized. If you need a medicine H
you should have the best. At all druggists H
fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a j H
sample bottle and pamphlet both sent free by H
mail. Mention The Tribune and send your H
address to Dr. Kilmer & Co. , Binghamton , N. H
