Have you ever thought that your kid

You can easily find out by se ting aside
your urine for twenty-fOur hours; a sedi-

cond tion of the kidneys. When urine

came the leading merchant and was
made postmaster Then for nearly 20
years the world stood practically still
for Tabor. He led a humdrum, prosaic
existence, making small profits from his
store and spending them in grub stalking
prospectors. But year after year the
miners whom he fitted out with provi-
sions and tools went away and came
back after time empty handed, but
Tabor never lost faith.
At last the tide turned. One day
he grub staked August Rische and
George T, Hook they agreeing to give
him an equal share in all their discov-
cries. In less than month they struck
a rich vein of silver, and the Little
Pittsburg mine was opened. During the
first half of the following month the
mine yielded $4,000 per week. After
realizing an immense revenue from his
property for nearly two years Tabor sold
out for 81, 900, 900
Then came Tabor's golden era. He
was having his day He bought mining
property right and left. To employ that
much used metaphor, everything he
touched turned to gold. There was a
time when the returns from one of his
mines amounted to 500, 600 "a month,
In the meantime he had cultivated
high political ambitions. He had served
as mayor of Leudvllle III its palmy days
and had been elected lieutenant govern
or Of Colorado Next he was appointed
! to ill out an uucNplred term of 80 days
as United States senator II was at this

with his diamonds and his 5000 night,
robe His income at this time was lar

continent and he lived accordingly. Aft
er his short stay IN Washington he
! longed to be returned for the full term
but although he spent money like wa
ter another man was elected.
Tabor ambition was to be elect
ed governor of Colorado So he wen
back to Denver and began to boom tina
city and the state On the outskirts o
what was then practically a mining
camp he built mansion which was tn,
finest i'll the country. He put up tn,
Tabor Grand Opera House, than whicl
there was only one finer in the world
He erected big business blocks whicl
were all out of proportion to the town
He was not elected governor, for abou
this time his domestic troubles began
He divorced his wife and married
young and beautiful woman. Then CAM
the ebb, His fortune began to slip ava.
from him as quickly as it had come
For years he fought in the courts, bu
he could not stop the ruin. A few
months ago tina wreck of his immens
fortune was complete, and now he ha
begun to rear new one.

lie down beside him at night and feel his
