NAY NOT MARCH.

Few Troops Available for the Proposed
Parade at New York.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l3.-The presi.
dent has decided that it will be i'm.
practicable tor the troops at Montauk
to ia Ike part in the projected parade in
New York City. All reports agree
that the men will not be able to stand
the fatigue OF the parade before the
first of next month at the earliest. AS
the parade was TO occur next Saturday
this renders the participation of the
Montauk troops impractlcable and the
parade must consequently, if held at
all, be composed OF che troops coming
in from Porto Rico, not exceeding two
thousand in number. Xart Of these are
i'll, so that the actual number able to
march would be small and General
Miles has about decided not to have
any parade at all. +.

II IS EASY TO TELL.

People who fail to look after their health
are like the carpenter who negects to sharpen
his tools. People are not apt to get anxious
about their health soon enough. If you are
''not quite wel' or "half sick' have you
ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness
1t is easy to tell by setting aside your urine
for twenty-four hours a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is
evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent
desire to urnate, scanty supply, pain or dull
ache in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are ont of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, full
fills every wish in relieving weak or diseased
kidneys and all forms Of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp-Root give
new life and activity to the bidneys-the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts
as tonic for the entire constitution. If yot
need medicine take Swamp-Root-it cures
