to follow. Your other

neys most, because
they do most and
should have attention
first. Therefore, when
your kidney« are weak or out of order,
you can understand liow 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. A trial will con
vince you of its great merit.
The mild amt 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 you
should have tile best.

Salem, Or.. Jan. 19.—After over

H. Green—the pardon of her only
son, Courtland Green, who is doing a
life sentence in the Oregon peniten
tiary for murder, are about to be real
ized. The pardon, however, will be
upon the express condition that young
Green leave the state with ins mother
and aunt and begin life anew else
where.
The storty of Mrs. Green and her
faithful sister, Mrs, A. L. Collins, is
