How to Find Out.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours: a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kid
news. When urine stains linen 1t Is
positive evidence of kidney trouble.
Too frequent desire to urinate or pain
i'm 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 DIR. killner's
Swamp Root, the great kiduT rem
edy. fulfills every wish IN relieving
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, blad-
der and every part of the urinary
passaees. 1t cor-ects inability to hold
urine and scalding pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use OF liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that un-
pleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times during the
nioht TO urinate. The mild and the
effect of Swamp Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most
distressing cases. If you need a medl.

TELLER TRUE TO SILVER.
Colorado Senator Not frightened by the
Big Decline.

Big Decline.
Chicago, Ill, Aug. 7.-Senator
Teller, who WIS here yesterday on
his way homs from Washington, is
not at all discouraged by the decline
in the price OF silver or the great
gold finds in Alaska.
The discovery of rich gold fields
in the Klondike country, said Sena.
tor Teller, will "be good thing for
silver and a good thing for other
things as well. A great output of
gold from Alaska will stimulate all
kinds of business The more money
there is the more industry there will
be. There is not enough money as
matters stand.
The gold newspapers say that ii
does not make any difference about
the amount OF money But I notice
you chronicle the upward tendency
of prices conceded with an in-
creased output of gold. The con
tention of the silver people is that
one never can have enough money
to do business with. You may double
the present amount of gold money.
which has been accumulating fo1
10000 years, and there will not be
enough. The more there is the more
men open up industries. and the
stagnation we have been suffering IN
the business world is due to the
scarcity of money with which te
start and maintain enterprises
ALWAYS HAD FAITH IN ALASKA.
For many years I have been ol
the opinion that Alaska was very
l,ich country, and believe Its gold
mines will turn cut to be the great
est in the world. It will be good
thing if It is so. for We need mors
money, aud anything that produces
no.e wilt be for the general good.
"What is your explanation Of tht
rising price of wheat and the falling
price of silvet?'
"Well," was the reply, every gole
paper ever, gives as reason for tn
rise in the price of wheat the failur'
of the crops in India and the Argen
tines. Wheat, anyway, has long beal
away below what it ought to Be
Why, if every crop in the world e
