She VIII Make Guatemala Part OF tho
Mexican Republic.
CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 28.-If Mexico
is pushed into the fight over the inter-
national boundary her policy will be as
outlined from the first by General Diaz
and his cabinet, to the effect that this
dispute and other little matters will be
settled once and forever, and the neces-
sary means used to that end 1t is
prophecied in some quarters that Mexico
will settle the boundary line by quietly
appropriating the whole Guatemalan re-
public as a part Of the United States
of Mexico, with the City Of Mexico as
it's capital and with the chief executive
Of this republic as it's ruler. The Mexi-
can authorities decline to discuss this
matter, however, and it is exceedingly
improbable that such q proposition has
been seriously considered, except as u
last resort, and after all other plans for
reconciliation had failed.

Bright's
Disease

means change in the Kidneys from
healthy tissue to fat. The symptoms
are SO obscure that they may not be
noticed until too late. The presence
of albumen in the urine, Backache and
retention of urine are symptoms Of
disease. If albumen Is present, it will
show if a small quantity Of urine be
heated to the boiling point in silver
spoon, when white curdy flakes will
appear; ora few drops of vinegar
and a second heating may discover the
albumen. Merely a white cloud may
show under the test-that indicates
the early stage when the disease may
be cured. Buller's Kidney Pills If
taken at this time will reduce inf1anl-
nation and help the Kidneys to their
normal state. IF the urine shows a
change, don't neglect the symptom.
The pills cost so cents at the drug
gists.
