A Partisan Cafe.

One of the most remarkable features
of Paris Is the cafe. There is nothing
just like 1t in England nor America,
nor, for that matter, anywhere else in
the world. The popularity Of the Par
isian cafe Is that the guests sit and
do their eating and drinking not with
in the building but out upon the side
walk. During the day, when the pa
irons are few, they keep close to the
building In the shade of the awning,
but at night the chairs greatly increase
In number and push far out upon the
flags, and often beyond the curbstone
into the roadway, and the pedestrian,
as he passes along the boulevards,
which for miles are thickly lined with
these shades, is continually threading
his way between and among the chairs
and tables where the Parisians, with
their wives and sweethearts, are eat
Ing, slipping their light drinks and en-
1oying life as apparently no other peo-
pie in the world enjoy 1.-THE Chau-

GROSS NEGLIGENCE.
No Apparent Excuse for the Recent Acct
dent at Bay City.

No Apparent Excuse for the Recent Acct
dent at Bay City.
Lansing, Mich, July 14.-Mechanical
Engineer Moore, by direction of Rail-
road Commissioner Wesselius. has made
an exhaustive investigation Of the ac-
cident on the Inter Urban railway at
Bay City last week, which resulted in
the loss of seven lives. In his report
made to the commissioner. he says that
1t is patent that the company had in
force no rules requiring that cars be
brought to a standstill on approaching
the draw bridge, and that it was a COM
mon custom to proceed without stopping
unless upon a clear signal from the
bridge tender. He expresses the opin-
ion that the accident must have occurred
through gross negligence or a lapse of
human faculties on the part of the mo-
terman and conductor. for the reason
that there was a clear view of the bridge
and draw for more than half a mile.
The construction Of a derailing and
Signalling system was ordered and agreed
to by the company. the only reliable and
sure safeguard against such accidents
being derailers constructed and inter-
locked in such manner as to compel
the cars to be stopped before the dan
ger point is approached. The report
calls attention to the fact that there are
three draw bridges in Saginaw and one
In Bay City where similar provisions
against accidents should be made.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let il stand twenty four hours; a sedi-
ment OF settling indicates diseased con-
dition of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen 1t is positive evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate
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 ful6lls
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
it, or bad effect following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that I'M
pleasant 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
