Do it Yourself.

You can tell just as we'll as a physician
whether your kidneys are diseased or
healthy. The way to do is to take bot
tie or glass tumbler, and fill it with urine
III there is sediment-a powder-likc
substance-at the bottom after standing
day and night, there is something
wrong with the kidneys. Another sure
sign of disease is a desire to urinate
Often and still another sign is pain in the
back. If urine stains linen, there is no
doubt that the kidneys are affected.
Any and all diseases of the kidneys, liv-
er, bladder and of the urinary passages
and constipation of the bowels are cured
by DR.. David Kennedy's Favorite REM
edy. There is no question about its being
the best and surest medicine in the
world for such troubles. It quickly re-
lieves and cures inability to hold urine,
and people, young or old, who take it are
not compelled to get up number of
times during the night. For putting an
end to that scalding pain experienced in
passing urine, nothing is so good as DR..
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy 1t
corrects the bad effects of whskey and
beer; is pleasant to the taste, and does
not seem to be medicine at all. Diseases
of the kidneys and bladder often require
the use of instruments to push back the
sandy matter so the urine can be yoidcd.
In such cases Favorite Remedy should
be taken without further delay or the dis
ease may prove fatal. 1t is sold for one
dollar bottle at all drug stores. 1t is
well worth many times the price.
\, SAMPLES FREE.
If you wish to test DIR. David Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy before buying it, send
your full postoffice address to the DR..
David Kennedy Corporation, Rondout, N
T., and mention this paper. We will then
mail you sample bottle free, as well al,
circulars giving full directions for it's use.
Every reader of the Daily Kennebec
Journal can depend upon the genuineness
of this liberal offer, and all sufferers from
kidney troubles should take advantage OF
1t at once.

In spite of the advance of cooler
weather health conditions in Havana
are declared to be steadily going from
bad to worse. Yellow fever is I'M
doubtedly spreading, the municipal
authorities are unable to enforce pre-
ventive measures and the city is lii
growing peril of an epidemic. The
Spaniards won't clean the city, and so
long as they remain in control the
Americans can do little or nothing to
improve the sanitary conditions. The
truth appears to be that Havana i.
today Tas grave menace to public
health in this country as it ever was
and the Spanish evacuation cannot be
compelled too soon.

Hoarseness in a child that is subject to

of the disease. If Chamberlains Cough
Remedy is given as soon as the child be-
comes hoarse. or even after the croupy

Total increase observation-disclosures, 693, 036
In 1890, when the first census was
taken, there We're only II states in the
Union, severally populated as follows:
Virginia, 1850; Pennsylvania, 434373;
North Carolina, 1893, ISL; Massachusetts,
319,72S; South Carolina, 249073; Con-
necticut, 237,S4e; New Jersey, 1919:
New Hampshire, 141 1856; Maine, 96.54O;
Vermont, S5,425; Georgia. S2,54S; Ken
lucky, 1867; Rhode Island, 6S,S25:
Delaware, 59,096; Tennessee, 1851
In 1880 the percentage of people liv-
ing in American cities of 5000 population
and upward was 22.57 of the whole, a
little over one-fifth. The census of 1890
increased this percentage of urban
population to 1920, nearly one third of
the whole. More than one-half the
total increase in population between
1880 and 1890, viz, 12,466, 467, was in the
cities. This urban increase was pre-
cisely 6,965S3S. In 1880 there were 2S5
cities in the United States containing
5000 people and upward, and their ag
gregate population was 1l,31S,547. in
1890 the number of these cities had in
creased to AS, having an aggregate
population of 1872 1856 out of total Of
62,622,250. The proportion of urban
| population to the whole in all the
| Southern states is very small COM
pared to the North and West, being
| less than 10 per cent. The growth Of
| Southern cities during the last decade
was substantial, but not so marked rs

1t is hard to convince the American
| that his country is not ahead of all
| the world in everything, especially in
the expansion of it's cities and towns

If all who ha tie would love us,
And all our loves were true.
The stars that swing above us
Would brighten in the blue;
If cruel words We're kisses.
And every scowl a smile.
A better world than this is
Would hardly be worth while;
If purses would untighten
To meet a brothers need.
The load we bear would tighten
Above the grave of greed.
If those who whine would whistle,
And those who languish laugh,
The rose would rout the thistle,
The grain outrun the chaff;
If hearts were only jolly,
If grieving were forgot,
And tears and melancholy
Were things that now are not
Then Love would kneel to Duty,
And all the world would seem
A bridal bower of beauty,
A dream within dream.
If men would cease to worry,
And women cease to sigh
And all be glad to bury
Whatever has to die
II neighbor spake to neighbor,
= AS love demands of all,
The rust would eat the saber,
The spear stay on the wall:
Then every day would glsten,
And every eye would shine,
And God would pause to listen,
And life would be divine.
