Tboosands im Kidne
Trouble and Neve Suspect it
Prevalencr of Kidney Disease.
Most people do not realize the alarm
ing increase and remarkable prevalency
of kidney disease.
While kidneydis
orders are the
most common
diseases that pre
vail, they are
almost the last
recognized by
patient and phy
sicians, who con
tent themselvet
with doctoring the effects, while the orig
inal disease undermines the system.
What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and e\ ery part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and o\ ercomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If jou need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists fiftv-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and a
book that tells all **jV'~
about it, both sent free
by mail. Address Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Bing
hamton, N. Y. When Hon»oiBwamp-Root
writing mention this paper and don't
make any mistake, but remember the
name, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and
the address, Binghamton, N. Y.

All Day and Niqht Service With

The Tri-State Telephone and Tele

prove their facilities at Willmar.
They have rented a suite of rooms
in the new Carlson & Westerg block
on the second floor and will short
ly have an operator in charge ot
the switchboard day and night.
The new line from Granite Falls is
now within two miles from the city.
There will be two No. 10 copper
wires furnishing three circuits to
Granite Falls and intermediate
points and connecting with impor
tant exchanges in that section. An
other No. 8 copper wire is being
strung from Minneapolis to Fargo.
When this comes to Willmar the
Tri-State will have three fine cir
cuits to the cities fiom here. They
will place booths in several places
in the city so as to make it conve
nient for the people to use their
lines. Eventually they will make
Willmar quite a center for their
business in this section of the state
and will very likely locate a district
manager here. With the splendid
service the Ti i-State long distance
lines give, their business will sure
ly grow, and the fact that they ex
pect to increase their facilities here
will be welcome news to our citizens.

Laid Up lor a Year.
Elmer and Albi" Kullander and
Miss Ida Johnson, former residents
of Colfax, arrived here last Satur
day from their claims in Bowman
county, N. D. During the latter
part of July Elmer Kullander met
with a very painful accident. He
had hitched up his bronchos to the
binder and they, in some way,
jumped so as to throw Elmer ahead
of the machine, landing him under
their hoofs, and dragging the bin
der over him. He was confined to
his bed fourteen weeks, during
which time everything possible was
done to relieve his sufferings. He
finally recovered sufficiently to
behuntingYoun.g
able to return to the home of
hiswith
parents in Colfax, where he will be
compelled to remain at least a year,
and will be unable to do much ot
any work during that time. It is
a hard blow for the young man, as
he was just getting a nice start for
himself with bright prospects for
the future. Albin, his brother,
will return to Dakota^ after a two
weeks' visit with friends and rela

Fergus Falls, Minn., Nov. 18.—
The city council last night took
the initial steps toward establish
ing a municipal telephone system
here. The Northwestern company,
which owns the local system, pro
poses to raise the rates, and the
council has appointed a committee
to investigate the feasibility of in
stalling a municipal plant and to
devise the means for securing the
necessary funds. The committee
will make an immediate investiga
tion and report at the next meet
ing.—Special to Minneapolis Jour
nal.

the fact that Elkjer's Photos are of

store property now occupied by
Carlson Bros. & Frost from the C.
F. Clark estate, the consideration
being $5,226.50. The deal was
made thru the Lewis Johnson real
estate agency. Another deal report
ed thru Mr. Johnson is the sale of
a number of lots in Ferring's addi

the latter will place cottages for
renting purposes.

We are of the opinion thnt this allegation
most clearly and accurately describes the
work that naa been accomplished and the
resultthathasbeenreached. Tho Pictionary,
H9 it now stands, has been thoroughly re
edited in eveiy detail, has been corrected in
e\ ery part, and is admirably adapted to meet
the laiger and se\eicr requirements of a
generation which demands more of popular
philological knowledge than any generation
that the world hase\ er contained.
It is perhaps needless to add that we refer
to the dictionary in our judicial work as of
the highest authority in accuracy of defini
tion and that in the future as inthe past it
will be thesource of constant reference.

Report of the Ubrariu of the
Swedish Traveling library
at Willmar.
The section of the Swedish travel
ing library furnished by the King
Oscar II Library Association of
Sweden, that was placed at the
Tribune office a year ago and has
been at the free disposal of the
public under the rules adopted, has
now remained here during the
length of time that it wa» supposed
to stay until it would be exchanged
for another set of books. No order
has been received from headquart
ers, however, requiring that such
exchange be made, and until such
orders are received the librarian
will continue to loan the books to
those who wish to read them. The
following from the report of the li
brarian may be of interest to the
Swedish readers of the Tribune:
There were 83 books in the sec
tion received at Willmar 107 differ
ent persons have availed themselves
of the opportunity to read one or
more of the books during the past
year. The total number of loans
made is 613. The following is a
list of the books and the number of
times each has been loaned:

F. A. Noland's lunch room was
broken into Sunday night and about
1500 cigars and other articles sto
len. An entrance to the building
was gained by cutting a hole in the
rear door large enough to permit of
the burglar reaching in and pulling
back the bolt that fastened the
door. A stranger who had been
loafing about town for several days
prior to the robbery, and who dis
appeared that night, is suspected
of the theft but has not been appre
hended. It is thought he got out
of town on one of the night passen
ger trains. Mr. Noland figures his
loss will aggregate something over
$60.—Kerkhoven Banner.
