A National Departmeet of soiencs

From the Scientific American.
In a few days a formal recommendation
will be submitted to congress IN favor of
the establishment Of one great department.
of science in place of the several existing
separate government bureaus. which are
maintained at great expense for the promo
tion of science and the development of the
ney Jr.. assistant secretary of agriculture,
has prepared an argument favoring the
consolidation of all the bureaus into one
department. He says that, aside from the
government schools and the testing labora-
tories of the war and navy departments.
the United States maintains no less than
twenty-eisht scientific bureaus for the. de-
velopment and advancement of Industrial
resources. These bureaus employ ever 5000
persons and are maintained at an expense
of $S0OOoOO. As all of the bureaus have a
common purpose, and considerable money
and time are wasted by the duplication of
work. 1t Is urged that they be placed under
the direction of single head.

STATUTES BELONG TO ALL.
Oklahoma Judge Decides n Case With
out Precedent in the Unit
ed States.

Guthrie. o. T.. March 27.-(Special) Judge
Dale, in the district court to-day. rendered
a decision without a precedent In the United
States. 1t was in a case brought by the
territory against the State Capital Print
ing Company, for printing and selling stat
ute books which the Territory had copy
righted.
Judge Dale holds that the government
Is not a person or Citizen in any sense
and that only persons or citizens are en-
titled to copyrights: that state govern
ment Is not an institution organized for
profit out of anything arising from its SOW
ereignty; that the laws belong to the
people, and any citizen has a proprietary
interest in them and can publish them If
he sees fit.
The court could find no other decision on
the subject anywhere on record and was
obliged to tread entirely on new ground

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let 1t stand twenty-four hours: sed-
iment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is positive evidence of kid
ney trouble. Too frequent desire to urin-
ate, or pain in the back. is also convincing
proof that the kidneys and bladder are out
of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There Is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root the great kidney remedy, fulfiils
every wish IN relieving pain in the back
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inability
to hold urine and scalding pain in passing
1t. or bad effects following use of liquor
wine. or beer. and overcomes that unpieas-
ant necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urinate.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t stands
the highest for its wonderful cures of the
most distressing cases. III you need a med
icine you should have the best. Sold by
druggists: price fifty cents and one dollar
You may have a sample bottle and PAM
phlet both sent free by mail Mention The
