Clinrls Lamb ifiren a funny account
of the origin of roiuit The owner of
a litter of Juvenile porkers, rousted to
donth by the casual burning of the fam
ily sty, in ricking about among the
ruins and sorrowfully handling the
t!s remains chanced to burn his fin
ja rs. Clapping them to hi mouth, he
lasted a pleasure so exquisite that It
nude him at once forget his pain and
liiss. Pouncing on the prize, he not only
dispatched the whole barbecue at a Bit
ting, hut licked his lips for more.
The story got wind, and the entire
country was ablaze with burning pig
pens, nor was If till many years after
that some adventurous Innovator shock
ed the adherents of conservative cook
cry by proposing a new and less expen
Blve process of preparing a favorite
dish.
It is not for us lawyers to laugh at
this. None has been more prone than
we to roast pigs according to precedent.
All of us can remember when in every
action to recover the value of one
man's property wrongfully appropriat
ed by another it was necessary to al
lege a fictitious losing by the former
and finding by the hitter and all be
cause the first case of the sort, hun
dreds of years ago, happened to be one
of real losing and finding. Nay, I have
even known the loss and finding of a
patch of cabbages to be solemnly aver
red, and no lawyer thought of smiling
at it
In the department of evidence we
have been especially slow to learn. If
you wafit to know how cramped and
artificial Its rules are just get into the
witness box to tell all you know abou
some case and see how much you'll be
let to tell.
Very adroit was the march that Lije
Loomis stole on the "statute of limita

Keck. He did a miscellaneous business
as carpenter, cow doctor and ooffln i
maker, adding to bis ether functions
that of undertaking to the county poor
boose. He was withal an easy, good
jiatuml fellow, free to trust and a
most indulgent creditor.
Among the others whom Lije had
frosted to bis cost was Greg Grrmes,

' Greg bad wheedled Lije with prom

to his bo small discomfiture, be learned
that unless be could get a new promise
from his debtor, with a witness to It,

points of It Greg would talk as freely

Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping 4t will wear away," are
drifting towards Bright' s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms.
HS(CI
stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues
of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out
the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and
the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body,
causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc.
If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY'S
KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a
fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system.
How to Find Out.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are
out of order by setting aside for 34 hours a
botUe of the urine passed upon arising;. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, yout kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE should be taken
at once.
G. B. Burhans Testifies After Four Years
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
"About four year ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirely
cured of a sever kidoejr trouble by talcing leaa than two bottles of
Poley'a Kidney Cure. It entirely (topped th brlck-duit sediment and
pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
1 have never had a return of any of those symptom during th four
year that have elansed, and I am evidently cured to stay eared, and
heartily recommend Foley' Kidney Cur to any on suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble."
