KIDNEY TROUBLE.

Many people suffer from in
activity of the kidneys, and
they feel out of sorts; they do
not know why. A slight atten-
ton to this matter will restore
them to perfect health, whereas
if they neglect it and then at
tempt a long course of treat
ment they are apt to provoke
serious trouble. For this rea-
son Reid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure is the very thing
that they need. 1t stimulates
the kidneys to action, carries off
the morbid matter, and relieves
the system from the poison that
would otherwise go into the
blood. For trouble of this sort
1t is without an equal, and is
highly recommended by the
best medical authority. 1t is
composed OF pure material with
out opiates and no ill effects can
follow from its use. For sale by
all druggists at IS and 30 cents

of men the visiting of public saloons
and the stand-up drinking at bars Is
falling more and more into disrepute.
In old times drunkenness was not con-
sidered disreputable among the gentry.
The great man was the -four bottle
man, and the hero of the occasion at
drinking bout was the one who could
put all the others under the table"
All this has not entirely disappeared
not by any means-for habits and hui
man nature do not change in day.
But there certainly has been marked
alteration for the better The man
who, in an assembly Of gentlemen at
dinner or elsewhere, gets drunk. makes
himself obnoxious. He is not APP
plauded; he is not even pitied de is
condemned. and his company fought
shy of thereafter.
The chief influence in working this
change, the writer thinks, is the
growing self-respect, education and
better breeding" which make man
ashamed to get drunk. He finds
another strong influence working to
the same end in the fact that the
drinking habit, even in moderation,
counts so sharply against man in the
business affairs of life. Upon this point
he says: rs he drinking man?" is
one Of the first and main questions put
by one man of another with whom any
business relation is proposed, and lis
he drinking MANI" SIS he a married
man?" are the two questions always
asked by any business man or firm
concerning proposed employe or as
sociate This, no doubt, tends to hold
many a man to paths of sobriety who
perhaps has not enough self-respect to
do So They can't indulge because, in
business sense, they cant afford to-"
This is emphatically true of some oc-
equations All of the leading steam
railroad companies of the country re-
fuse to employ men who patronize the
saloon. Not long ago the company
which operates horse cars on Fourth
avenue in this city issued an order to
its conductors and drivers that sum-
mary discharge awaits the men who
visit saloons at either end of the road
between trips" The officers of the
road said that the order was issued for
the purpose of insuring discipline
among the men, some of whom were
in the habit OF leaving their cars and
horses unattended while they loitered
in saloons. There was some excitement
among the men, and even a little talk
of organizing an opposition to the
order, but it soon subsidized when they
reflected that there were plenty Of men
willing to take their places who would
agree never to visit saloons. -Cincin-

the Law and Order league began prose-
cutting the saloon men. The cases are
taken before the justice Of the peace.
and a fifty-dollar fine assessed by the
Justice. With this decision as evidence,
the cases are taken to the district

the property. The law requires that
the property and building shall be de-
scribed. Nearly all the saloons are in

GENERAL MENTION.

fHE charity commissioners of Lon.
don have formed new scheme for car
rying on the Peoples Palace, and in
it there is promise that no intox-
icating liquors shall be introduced,
and there are to be free lectures on
temperance and thrift
THE price of alcoholic drinks has
risen very high in the government of
Kharkov. The authorities have issued
orders to stop the distilling of brandy
altogether until the autumn and the
export Of spirituous liquors from Khar-
lSoy to other governments of the EN-
pire.
In this day and age no man who is
not total abstainer from all forms OF
Intoxicating drink has no right to
count himself on the side of temper
ance reform. He is stumbling block
in the way of temperance progress, and
If he persists in his selfish and UNI
christian indulgence the less he has to
say upon the subject of temperance the
better it will be for the cause. Chris

the other day a new and exceedingly
appropriate name for the ordinary run
of city saloons The little fellow knew
that we bought tea at tea-store and
boots at a bookstore. So this kind OF
unconscious analogy guided his speech.
At the table the other day he broke out
with the news: II seed two men com
ing out of a drunk-store; and one of
'em was oxticated." "Drunk-store,
