The very best entertainment of the season was
presented by Frohman's Lyceum Theatre Company in the Opera House, last Saturday

understand he will continue to act as auctioneer whenever his services are
required.

any good reason for Goldsmith's removal, and the citizens will be glad to know
that he has been reinstated.

"My kidneys are all right, I have no pain
in my back." Mistaken man! People die from Kidney disease of so bad a
character that the organs are nearly destroyed, and yet they have never had a
pain or an ache. Why? Because the disease began in the
interior of the kidneys where there are few nerves of feeling to convey the sensation
of pain. Dr. Kilmer's "Swamp-Root" is the great specific for
"Bright's disease," urinary troubles and kidney difficulties.
A
Pleasant Herb Drink. [Paid

The best cure we know of for Constipation and
Headache is the pleasant herb drink called Lane's Family Medicine. It is said
to be Oregon grape root, combined with simple herbs and is made for use by pouring
boiling water onto the dried roots and herbs. It is one of the best spring medicines,
and is remarkably efficacious in all blood disorders. It is now the sovereign
remedy with ladies for clearing up the complexion. Druggists sell the packages
at 50c and $1.
