Sawyer’s EXCELSIOR BRANO Editor Reporter—Upon reading the findings of the court of inquiry, that sat to investigate the charges against Ad miral Schley, my little boys plied me with a great many questions about it. They were very much interested am! amused at my sarcastic answers. I have written out some of my answ-ers in rhyme, thinking they might interest other boys. I hand them to you to look over.

All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, achesandrheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits by all druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar siz es. You may have a sample bottle by mail Home <>r s«amr-R<^i free, also pamphlet telling you how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. Mention this paper when writing Dr. Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton. M. Y. ASK SHIN UtlttlEltS Some Other We Get The Boat Things We Need and Can Have Board of Trade To Be Organized. The little agitation last week serves well the purpose of showing what a well-organized board of trade might do to advance public interests. We are to have a steamboat on the river, with a regular agent*, as an nounced in another column. The moment it was seen that the citizens meant business, and would have a boat, one came without solicitation, and came eagerly. Whether we will have the other boat or not, remains to be reported. This paper calls special attention to the announcement of the firm of Jones & Adams in this issue. Their purpose is clearly stated This lum ber industry has been the principal agency for employment of men and distribution of wages in this city for years. The desire of the firm to so shape their business this new year as to build a large mill on the river which would be able to operate the year round, and cheapen lumber while keeping busy twelve months in the year, is a commendable one, and on? which might be advanced and helped in many wavs by business organiza tion. With such a change logs could be floated down during the high wa ter season, and the bugbear of hauling the finished product a distance of 17 miles would be obviated. Business would be created for both boats and railroad in shipping the lumber, and more men employed for a longer period than can be done now. They desire to sell the factory and clear un stock to render them financially able to make the change. As spring advances every good citizen must desire the heretofore pro posed cannery to be established by Messrs. Galloway and Hendrick. Or ~ ganized effort will secure this. We must make another scrape of moss from our backs this spring. Slight movements of this kind in years passed have benefited us. Other towns are vicing _ with each other (and even wirh us) io securing industries which employ people and attract in vestors, while creating markets for the products of agriculture. To this end a public meeting is called to convene in the city hall on Monday evening, Jan. 13th, to organize a board of trade. Every citizen is invited to be present and participate. Remember the date and lend your presence. Old Blue dozed and purred in the artn chair and the Shin Warmers filed in, one and two at a time. When the meeting warmed t.p, the fat man with a revenue disposition said : “How are they gittin’ along with the steamboat business?” “Hit'll go all right,” said the selt- owned hardware mail. “If the gov’ment owned the railroad,” said the socialist, ‘‘we’d get our freight at cost and—” but the druggist thrust the poker into the stove with much vio lence, and whistled and banged around until the subject was changed. “Don't hear anything more about the cannery lately,” said the retired grocery man who is waiting for an office. "Waitin’ for Galloway to come home, I guess,” surmised the surveyor, who was a mayor. "That’s right,” said the hustling attorney with the stick under his arm, "that’s right, that's right, that’s right.” “My cow Flowed off the bridge the other night and strained her milk," spoke up the farmer with the hard front name. “Well, I'll be joswizzled,” said the judge, that's an old gag, what about that cannery, anyway?” "Where do they propose to put the cannery, on the railroad or on the river?” asked the pale-faced express of- ficc editor. “Who’d put money into a cannery in this town, I’d like to know?” asked the moss faced cynic in a tone of sarcasm. “This is a good town for a cannery,” said the shepherd boy. “It is within three hours of ships that will take its products to any of the markets of the world. The cannery is all right if you can get it into the trust, and you can get it into the trust if you will put up only A I goods. ” The meeting quit, and Old Blue climbed back into the chair, singing, “Where Is My Iloy Tonight?” HOT TEA I BISCUIT BSÔ01 Father, we do not understand From what the papers say; Who was the hero of the fight At Santiago bay?
