The pale, sallow, sunken-checked, distressed-looking people you so often meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com- plexion.” ‘ Their kidneys are turning to a pars- nip color. So is their complexmn. They may also have indigestion, or suffer from sleeplessness, rheumatism, neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex- haustion, and sometimes the heart acts badly. - The cause is weak, unhealthy kid? ‘ neys. ., , Usually the sufferer from kidney disease does not find out what the trouble is until it is almost too late, be-' cause the first symptoms are so like mild sickness that they do not think they:need a medicine or a doctor until theyfind themselves sick in bed. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root will build up and strengthen their weak and ‘dis-' eased kidneys, purify their diseased, kidney-poisoned blood, clear their com- plexion and soon they will enjoy better health.

Another great discovery has been made, and that to, by a lady in this coun- try. “Disease fastened its clutches up- on her and for seven years she withs stood its severest tests, but her vital organs were underminedfl and death seemed imminent. For three month- she coughed incessantly, and could not sleep. She finally discovered a way to recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con- sumption, and was so much relieved on taking the first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz.” Thus writes W. ,C. Hamnick &,Co., of Shelby, N. C. Trial bottles free at John A. Riggs’ drug store, 11 Main street. Regular size 500 M. —. n"- “ ' .‘AMUSEMENTS. Kellar’s Hindoo Cluck. The most wonderful clock ‘in the world, without a doubt, is in the posses-— sion of Magician Kellar. For years he has made a study of the magic of the Hindoo necromancers and the Mahatma priests, and so well has he become known to them that this odd, mysteri- ous clock has been sent him as a pres- ent, in order that he might show the American people something of real Hindoo mystery. It is a glass clock dial, with a. hole inothe middle, into which is placed the shaft of a single , brass clock hand. There are no works, nor machinery of any sort, and it is perfectly transparent. There is a lit- tle hole in the edge’of the dial, through which a wire hook suspends it from a steel bar. Yet the clock at Kellar’s command tells time by any one’s watch, does sums in arithmetic, tells the day of the week upon which any one was born and does all sorts of hnheard of things. Kellar’s entire entertainment will be given at Hoyt’s theatre, Tues- ,day evening, Apr-ills. IN WETHERSFIELD. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) jail. The trip from Bridgeport was uneventful. .
