Father John £. McKenna to choose for his funeral sermon to-day for Margaret McCloaky. She was a good and faithful servant, and her mistress, Mrs. Willlam Arnold, widow of the son of the founder of Ar- nold, Constable & Co, and the family will see her laid away in her Inst rest- ing place, the Arnold vault in Gree: wood Cemetery, She served the Ar- nolds, father and son, for the seldom equalled period of forty-five years. ‘Mins McClosky entered the service of Richard Arnold at elghteen years, her siste> being his housekeeper at No. 1 East Eilghty-third street. When her master died he would have no one else in the sick room, and Margaret would not give way even to a trained nurse. Then she left her home of so many years for the house of the son, William, whom she had nursed and directed from infancy. Mrs. William ‘Arnold made more of a companion of Margaret than anything else, and wherever she went In her travels in this country or abroad the faithful servant attended her. Five y igo when William Arnold died she was at his bedside to close his eyes as she had done for his father, and never was there a more sorrowful woman than was she on the day he was laid away in yenwood, where she will now rest with him.

Details of How Kidney-Wort Tablets Cured, The following is a detailed account of a most remarkable recovery from kidney disease that had [abs ape so far that the sufferer had already had two attacks of convulsions, due to uric acid poison- ing. Nothing but Dr Pettingill’s xidney- Wort Tablets were used. Dalton, Mass., April 23, 1903. Gentlemen—I wish you to know how very much better my husband is since taking Kidney-Wort Tablets. His appe- tite has improved, sleeps well, has no pain in back or head, nor any stomach trouble, His urine has cleared, so that it is quite its natural color. He has im- proved greatly in looks and grows stronger every day. [have recommended the Tablets to my acquaintances. 1 think they are wonderful. He has had no at- tack of the convulsions since taking’ the Tablets, Respectfully yaurs, MRS. C. H. WOODWORTH. No liquid kidney remedy could have done this—the alcohol present in all such remedies would have made such a recov- ery impossible. Alcohol inflames the tiny filtering tubes, hardens them so that they cannot do their work. Kidney-Wort Tablets contain no alcohol, They cure kidney diseases where other remedies have no effect. The spring is favorable to the begin- ning of kidney troubles. The dampness leads to colds; backaches are prevalent. Every one should watch any change that takes place in the urine. If your back, aches, xe ur appetite grows fickle, your urine becomes dark and cloudy, smells bad, has a heavy sedi- ment, or your feet, legs or hands swell, make this test: Allow a bottle of your morning urine to stand for twenty-four hours. If you find a dark sediment, “brick dust” de- posit or particles floating on top, take the Tablets and notice the rapid clearing of the urine and the improvement in the general health.
