CHaEE CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder tlou-
bles. So the womb, like the bladder,
was CT Gated for one purpose, and if not
doctored too much is not liable to weak
ness or disease, except in rare cases.
1t is situated back of and very close to
the bladder, therefore any pain, disease
or inconvenience manifested in the
kidneys, back, bladder or urinary pas
sage is often, by mistake, attributed to
female weakness or womb trouble of
some sort. The error is easily made
and may be easily avoided. Totind out
correctly, set your urine aside for TWEEN
ty-fOur hours; a sediment of settling in
dicates kidney or bladder trouble. The
mile and the extraordinary effect of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney
ard bladder remedy is soon realized

RELIGIOUS Philosophy,

Christianity is science; but "Christian
science" is the opposite of Christianity
Dependence on self alone is often
mistaken for independence; but the
two are vastly different.
Considering that war is hell" it is
strange that Il Christian should ever
feel bound to go to war.
The Christian maintains peace by
fighting self; the non-Christian seeks
to get it by fighting some one else.
The "deceitfulness of sin" often
makes people believe they have
defeated the devil, when the devil has
i'll fact defeated them.
The fact that the world is growing
worse, does not constitute any reason
at all why you should not be growing
better.
1t is religion alone that gives Sunday
a different character from that of Mon
day or Tuesday; Sunday is different in
character from those days only by
being religious day. And we're it not
for this fact, there would never have
been Sunday law enacted.
The more of the war spirit there is
in the world, the more necessity is there
that Christians should maintain peace.

Business Outlook as Reported by Schwartz,
Dupee & Co.

CHICAGO, ILL, May 1898.
There was plenty of life in the wheat
market today and the range in July,
which was the principal option traded
in, was from 95s to 93a cents with the
close a very strong one.
During the early part of the session
there was plenty of bull news, both
Liverpool and Paris reporting sharp
advances, but to this the local market
paid no attention, and the feeling was
rather heavy than otherwise. The
inactlon was very deceptive, however,
as about half an hour before the close
there was an avalanche of buying orders
which speedily sent the price close to 80
cents, and there was general covering
by shorts before the bell tapped.
In com the feeling was not so strong,
and the impression is becoming general
that :he top price has been seen,
although last week there were plenty of
people who predicted that 40 cents
would be paid for July corn. TODAY
these optimists have disappeared and
there was far more sellers than buyers
during the entire session.
Provisions failed to hold the sharp
advance made Saturday, and the talk of
enormous exports of lard and meats IS
no longer heard. The hog receipts,
always large in May and June, promises
to be phenomenal thus year, and this
tends to make even the confirmed bulls
a little cautious.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable to any form
of disease except by one of two ways.
The first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way is
from careless local treatment of other
diseases

perceptibly exhausted the energy of Col.
Roosevelt. AS a saucy Western paper
remarked. ''he got on well in Cuba be-
cause he could eat bareback or any other
old thing. and now he wants to eat up

normal appetites or not. he was frisky
enough to frolic with old Neptune the
other day.
There was a thunder of hoofs along the
level behind newspaper row like the
sound OF stampede. Every body ran
out and beheld Col. Theodore Roosevelt

the head OF Col Roosevelt could be seen
bobbing just outside the line of break

a large and somewhat premature wave
broke out beyond the line. caught the
cavalry leader unawares and he disap-
peared from the scene of action in a

laughing.

DEATH IN THE SURF.
Cen WheeIer's Son and Lieut.. Kirk
patrick Drowned.

patrick Drowned.
Camp Wikoff. Montauk Point, Sept L.
There is little doubt that Gen. Joseph
wheeIer's second son. Thomas II. Wheel
er, was swept out TO sea this afternoon
and drowned, together with Lieut.. New
ton d. Kirkpatrick, of the First Cavalry,
while bathing in the ocean.
Their clothing was found on the beach
just above highwater mark late this
afternoon at point near where they are
known to have gone in swimming about
two hours before. This evening Gen
Wheeler himself had about given up
hope. and says he believes his boy has
drowned.
Young Wheeler, who is twenty years
old. and Lieut. Kirkpatrick have been
friends for some time, and yesterday they
made an appointment to go swimming to-
gether this afternoon at 2:3O, at the eX-
treme end of the sand beach, not far
west of the bluff on which Gen. Wheeler
has just established his new headquar-
ters. They left headquarters together
and were seen by other bathers going
into the water and jumping the waves
about 2:30 An hour later, Gen. Wheeler
came down for his bath. found the surf
pretty heavy. and did not stay long in
the water. "i
About o'clock he learned that his son
had been swimming near where he him
salf had gone in, and having seen nothing
of the boy he became anxious, particu-
larly as he had experienced the force of
the waves. A corporal was sent 10 inves-
tigate and returned in half an hour, white
and shaking.
You tell the general. sir" he said to
one of the staff. Il can't do IT, Young
Mr. wheeler's clothes are there, with his
watch and letters, and Lieut.. Kirkpat-
ricks s uniform. Nobody has seen either OF
them and it's almost sure they are lost.
The news was taken TO the general, who
at first would not believe his son had been
drowned, as he knew how to swim well.

WHY THEY HUNGERED.
Cubans Said to Have Confiscated
the Uneuarded Supplies.

Col d. F. Humphrey, chief quar;ermas-
ter at Santiago during the late campaign
before the Cuban city, who was one of
the first army officers to land upon Gu
bar soil, and one of the last to return,
was in the city yesterday.
In speaking OF the reports that the
troops were not supplied with food during
the fighting he said that this was due to
the fact that many of the troops, on ac-
count of the extreme heat and the fatigue
of the forced marches, threw away their
haversacks, and that it was utterly i'm
possible to get new supplies to such men.
as their identity was unknown to the
commissary department. He cited one
case where he had unIoaded a train of
ammunition so as to send it back for food
supplies.
Some of the regiments. he said
(which did not want to fight with their
luggage, deposited it and placed a guard
over it. and at the close of the day sent
back after 1t. Where this was done they
were supplied. There Is no doubt that
where the discarded kits were unguarded
the Cubans picked up the supplies and
made way with them
