The Emerald Isle is not the only hab-
itat of bulls, and the connection be-
tween the Gallo and Celtic races must
be close indeed, if the following gems,
given upon no less an authority than
that of the Journal des Tribunaux as
emanations of the judicial mind in
France are to be considered genuine:
"Justice is not clandestine cavern
where people are strangled behind their
backs.

highly to admit for moment that he

The changes of fortune place people
sometimes in peculiar and embarrassing
positions. A good story is told OF Sir
Henry Irving, the famous actor When
a young man, earning his laurels and
comparatively unknown, Shakespeare's
pIay much Ado About Nothing" was
about to be presented to the public by a
certain manager of prominence. Irving
had part assigned to him, which ne
diligently studied. Letter perfect in his
lines, he felt assured of ultimate sue
cess, but unfortunately the manager
disliked his acting of it and took occa'
sion to censure him before the company,
much to his modification. Furthermore,
the manager took the part away and
gave him another, less prominent, but
more difficult.
Years went by, and Irving steadily
climbed to q fame that brought him
king hthood, while the critical manager
gradually lost ground. One day, shortly
after Irving announced his intention OF
producing Much Ado About Nothing"
the old manager presented himself and
asked that part be assigned to him.
Irving granted the request and gave
him the very part he had forced him to
play years before, During rehearsal
Irving narrowly watched the managers
acting and at the conclusion went up to
him and shook his hand after graTely
complimenting him upon his rendering
of the part. Then he promoted him to
the part from which he had been re-
duoed. 81 never knew what Goals of
fire. meant till them" was the remark
which the old actor and manager was
overheard to make when Irving retired

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours; sedi-
ment or 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 fulflls
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 effect following use OF liquor,
wine or beeS and overcomes that un-
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 It
stands the highest for its wonderful cures
of the most distressing cases. II you need
medicine you should have the best. Sold

soon remedy this want in disordered liver
or bowels. Biliousness manifests itself in
yellowness of the skin aud eyeballs, sour
breath, furred tongue, morning nausea, MS
comfort IN the vicinity of the liver, vertigo
and sick headache. Hosts of people suffer
thus. These signs of INSTRUMENTATION to the
governance of health, together with an ir-
regular condition of the bowels, are soon
regulated by the Bitters, which also over
comes malaria dy spepsia, rheumatism, neu-
