HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand t~wenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indi-
Gates an unhealthy condition of the
kidney. When urine stains linen it
is 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

There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that DR.. Kslmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney rem

pain in the back, kidneys, liver, blad-
der and every part of the urinary
passages. 1t corrects inability to

liquor, wine or beer. and overcomes
that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times dur

Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.

MACHINE vs.. HAND LABOR.
Supremacy of the Former and the Re-
sUiting benefits.

When sewing machines We're invented some
people rejoiCed because of the prospect that
woman's labors would be lightened and she
would have more leisure, while othe's,
equally soicitous for feminine welfare
feared that in taking away the needle her
distinctive occupation would be gone and
she be left TO dangerous idleneTs. As it
TUNED out, woman only did the more sewing
when it became easier to do An era OF
frlls and furbelOwS and complicated gar
mentS came in with the machines and Stil
continues. The comparative simplicity OF
dress that was a necessity when the needle
was welded by hand vanished when as many
stitches could be set in an hour as were
once painfully wrought in day, and women
became slaves to their sewing machines as
they had once been to their needles, The
business of the seamstrCcs, so far from be
ing injured was increased a hundrcdfOld
and her calling dignihed, The history Of
many kinds Of machinery and so-caled labor
saving devices f. similar, but In no case
more st ikingly so than with typeset'ing ma
chimes. An expert operator on linotype
machine is reported as having set an aver age
Of 9,1g2 ems an hour in a six days stretch
This is considerably above the average rate
Der dsy set by hand but the fact that such
speed rs possible does not prove that the
work of tSpGsettug will heuceforth be dJre
by a limited number Of men. On the con
airy. n simply points TO an extension OF the
printing business. These machines have
been in use but a very Ie" years anu ~
many printing houses have not yet becu
Introduced. but already their effect has been
sh 3wn in the enlargement Of newspapers the
giving of more reading matter to their pa-
trors the Increase in the output OF books
pamphlets and periodicals OF all KINDS and
a general development along the yailo'g
linfs OF the printers trade There were
women who looked ssksnce upon the sewing
machine when it made it's advent and re-
fused to profit by IL; there are typsBette- ~
whrss years and conserva i've tendsnc IS axe
II difficult for them to adapt themselves 70
new me hUds and these win sufJr from the
substitution Of machinery for hand labor,
but on the whole this branch Of labor VIII
be benefited and its scope wiened by the
sse Of the once-dreaded machinery.
