What Shall We Do.

A serious and dangerous disease prevails
in this country, dangerous because so decep-
tive. 1t comes on SO slowly yet surely that ii
is often firmly seated before we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may be
divided into three distinct stages is, First,
Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back,
rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to
urinate often with a burning sensation, the
flow of urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, Or Bladder trouble, with heavy
pain in the abdomen low down between the
navel and the water passage, increasing de
sire to urinate, with scalding sensation il
passing, small quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw il
with instruments. If uric acid or gravel hai
formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected
The Third stage is Brght's Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that DR.
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder
specialist, has discovered a Remedy famous
for its marvellous cures of the most distressing
cases and known as DIR. Klmer's Swamp
Root.
1t is sold by all druggists.
As proof of the wonderful virtues of thi'
great discovery, Swamp Root, sample bottle
and book of valuable information will be sen
absolutely free by mail on application to DR.

THE losses by the Democrats in the
House in the second year of Cleve-
lands Administration were nearly
seven times greater than the losses
sustained by the Republicans in this
second year of McKinley's admins
tration In other words, in 1898 the
Democratic strength in the House, in
the middle of Cleveland's administra-
tion, was reduced from 217 to 93, a
loss of 1874. This year, in the middle
of McKinley's administration, the
Republican strength in the House o
Representatives has been reduced
from 2O3 to 1856, a loss of only 1
members.

Thanksgiving Day In London.

London, Nov. 25.-The Thanksgiving
banquet of the American society in

guests sat at a table under the en-
twined flags of the two nations. Two
notable speeches We're made, one by
Mr.. Henry White, the American charge
d'affaires and the other by Sir Edwin
Arnold, who was supposed to be nearly
at the point of death from paralysis,
but who dragged himself into the BAN
quet hall against the orders of his
physicians, leaning on the arm of his
Japanese wife and supported by cane.

Augusta's strikers WeaKonine.

Augusta, Ga, Nov. 25.-The strike
among cotton mill operatives here now
affects 5000 workers. The new scale
which the owners seek to enforce and
to which the strikers object is based
on the rate of wages paid in South
Carolina and North Carolina so the
owners say. This the strikers deny
claiming that the conditions here and
In the Carolinas are different. The mill
owners are firm in their determination
to enforce the cut, and the strikers are
beginning to yield. They recognize
their situation, and know that they
have no weapon to fight with. If this
cut Is successful 1t is believed similar
reductions will be made in cotton mills
in other parts of the south.

Well, it does seem that $20, 900, 900 Is

This was the semi-evasive manner
in which the Spanish diplomat an

His QuestiOner continued:
"Then, it has been affirmed that Spain
