HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand twenty. four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre-
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
Terhe is comfort in the knowledge
80 often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney reme-
dy, f1lfills 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 eff.
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its most won
derful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists, price 80 cents aud one dollar.

Owing to Greek Movements In Epirus.

tionaI Step Unless Europe Interfcres.

LONDON, May 18.-The latest news
from the scene of hostilities by way Of
Athens shows that the battle at Domo.
kos ceased about o'clock last evening,
but was resumed this morning. Thus
far no account of the fighting has been
received from the Turkish side. 1t is
evident, from the Greek account, that
the Greeks have suffered serious de.
feat, and if the left wing has given
away, as appears probable, Edhem
Pasha may be able to cut off the Greek
retreat and so part General Smolensh
at Sourpi from the main army.
This is Edhem Pasha's reply to the
foolish attempt Of Colonel Manos to
snatch q victory in Epirus. II Greece
had prevented Manos from playing this
last card of a gambler, Turkey might
perhaps have ceased hostilities. AS it
Thessaly and the powers will find the
task of protecting Greece more difficult

The dispatches from Athens repre-

had hoped to the last that the powers

government as threatening to take ex-
treme and desperate steps unless Eu-

ST. PETERSBURG, May 1S.-The news.

mands as the price of peace with
Greece. They declare that if Turkey
insists upon them Europe will be

ATHENS, May lS.-Mr. Railli, when
he called at the legations, protested to

Greece, at the instance of the powers,
was acting purely on the defensive.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, May 1S.-All the

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-There is
possibility of a clash between the
friends of the Cuban belligerency reso.
luton and the tariff bill. The advo-
Gates of the Cuban resolution appre-
hend that their opponents will make an
effort to prevent a vote before next
Monday, whe n the tariff bill is to be
taken mp under agreement. Senator
Morgan is hopeful of securing a vote
before that time. Senator Mason, who
is an enthusiastic supporter of the Gu.
ban cause, said that if vote should be
prevented this week by filibustering

Cuba before the tariff is considered, :"
he said, "or we shall see some filibust-

Action by the house on President
McKinley's recommendation for the
relief OF American citizens in Cuba,
which was prevented by the rules un.

doubtless will be taken at the next
meeting of the house on Thursday.

There is certain professor in GER
tain university Of the United States who
once, at the beginning Of one of his lee
lures on fine arts, got on the subject of
the kind Of pins worn in the neckties of
young college men. he was good lee
turer and was always interesting, but
this lecture was the most interesting of
his course to the 800 boys who heard
him, and the whole hour was spent on
necktie pins, their use and misuse and
what they suggested. The gist of what
he said was that there was no more
reason why boy should wear a horse
shoe with whip across it all in gold
than that houses should have sleeves for
roofs, and that as it was extremely
foolish to put big sieve on your house
for roof so it was quite as foolish to
wear horseshoes on your neckties. The
principle of this is that you should have
reason in what you wear as well as in
other things and that seDseless decorR-
tions, like horseshoes on neckties or
neckties on hprseshoes, are silly and un-
becoming TO a self respecting person.
This particular example was only one
to illustrate principle, which is that
nothing unusual, queer, out of the or
binary, is in itself a good thing-that,
in fact, most things that are queer and
out of the ordinary are likely, in the
question Of dress, to be in bad taste. A
mans dress ought TO be quiet, but it
must be clean and we'll taken care Of in
every instance. The best dressed man is
the man who, in whatever company he
finds himself, is inconspicuous; who,
you realize in an indefinite way, is well
appointed, though you cannot well tell
why. -Harper's Round Table.

erection and, Ipresume, desired to insure
my safety, as he drew up his rife and
covered the Indian with it. Lame Deer
saw this and evidently thought the
young scout was going to shoot him. l
know of no other motive for his subse-
quent act than the belief that he was to
be killed whether he surrendered or not.
AS quick as thought, with one des-
perate, powerful effort, he wrenched his
hand from mine, although l tried to
hold it, and grasped his rifle from the
ground, ran backward few steps, rails
ed his rife TO his eye and fired. Seeing
his determined face, his set jaw, wild
eye and the open muzzle Of his rifle,
realized my danger and instantly whirl-
ed my horse from him, and in this quick
movement the horse slightly settled back
upon his launches. At that moment the
rife flashed within ten feet of me, the
bullet whizzed past my breast, leaving
me unframed, but unfortunately killing
a brave soldier near my side"
Naturally the whole scattered band
of Indians was instantly wiped out by a
close and deadly fire from the soldiers.
The incident is typical Of the whole
series of Indian campaigns in which
General Miles figured in the last quarter
of century. The desire to treat the
redskins as fellow men, constantly
thwarted by the natural suspicious Of
the savages themselves, is apparent all
through the book.
