Special Dispatch to the State Capital
Paden. i. T.. Feb. 2 — The Fort Smith
anil Western Railroad company open-
ed their new town of Padeu on Thurs-
day January 2'J and the opening guar-
antees a pood town. The town was to
be called Tolbert but the poHtoffice de-
part ment rejected that name for
town in the Creek nation, because of
Colbert in the Chlcitasaw nation,
there being a difference of only one
letter in the names and a confusion
of mail would result. So the name
Paden was selected and a post office es-
tablished and the railroad given the
same name. The lot sale was well at-
tended and was a splendid success.
Nearly all the purchasers wore mer-
chants and business men buying loca-
tions for business and homes. Already
Ave stores are going up and in ten days
more than double that number will he
in course of construction. Two hanks
have been established and are doing
business. A solid stone building, one
story, with a frontage of three hun-
dred feet has been agreed upon by
some Holdenville parties, who bought
twelve lots adjoining for that purpose.
They have each signed an agreement j
to build and rock is being placed on
the lots. A good hotel and school j
building are assured at once. Monday
Mr. A. W. Scotts force of teams and !
(laborers will begin work on the side,
tracks, and on account of the abun-
dance of water the railroad will build |
a large tank. Some speculators had
thought of opening the town of Goode,
nearby, hut said they could get no de- \
pot and have all moved over to Paden.
Being a railroad town the large area
of fine country land surrounding guar-
antees the future of Paden.

Gentlemen:—While it has never been my habit or inclination to rec-
ommend remedies the ingredients of which are not all known to me, it seems
as if I should make an exception in the case of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root.
My experience so far as 1 have tested it In my practice, forces me to the • (in-
clusion that It Is a remedy of the greatest value in all uric acid, kidney, liver,
bladder and other inflammatory conditions of the genito-urinary tract. I now
take pleasure In prescribing Swamp-Root In all such cases with a feeling
of assurance that my patients will derive great benefit from its use. I shall
continue to prescribe It in other cases in my practice with the expectation o
f the best result. Very truly yours,

the diseased portion of the ear. There Is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an In Hammed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tub .
When this tube is inflamedyou have a
rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and
when It is entirely closed. Deafness Is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy-
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
