HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; q sediment or settling indicates
n diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. TOO ire
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DC.

so often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer' s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy

the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and

fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up

LORD KELVIN.

There was present at the recent
meeting of the British ASsOcia
ton, in Toronto. one of the most
eminent scientists of the present
century, Lord Kelvin, better
known as Sir William Thompson.
Lord Kelvin was raised to the
peerage in 1892 on account of his
wonderful discoveries in the field
of science. He visited the Ameri-
can continent in 1884 when he
was present at the Montreal meet
ing of the British Association.
Nikola Tesla says of him in the
New York Journal: One of the
reasons why / do not like to speak
of Lord Kelvin is that l can not
find words to express my admira-
ton for the genius of this remark
able man, and my gratitude for
what he has done for humanity
at large. and for those who, like
myself. are following some of the
paths he has opened. He Occu-
pies a unique position IN the

son of his achievements, but also
by the fact that he has been active

and productive during a period
seldom allotted to workers in
scientific fields. Usually the
efforts of the mind permaturely
consume the man. But in a few
cases, occurring now and then in
a century, an exceptionally gifted
and vigorous personality appears
and leaves an impression which
lasts for ages. Lord Kelvin is
such a man. But not only is this
true of him, but he has also, what
few great scientific men have, a
lovable nature, which years have
only brOadened and intensified.

at Smyrna. The New York World
has heard of him, and it has writ

of the Turkish language, but is
abundantly supplied with ener-

just what he asks for.
Two of his latest diplomatic
acts have been described to the
State Department people. One
account comes from the mission
aries. They had been gathering
clothes for sufferers in the inter
Tor. The garments were thrown
into boxes and no record taken of
them, immediate shipment being
imperative. The Turkish officers
at the wharf refused to pass the
charity boxes. They demanded in

the contents, and all explanations
availed nothing.

the story of the missionaries, got

done, to the amaZement of the by
