CHIEF GAuSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not dOctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
near to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake
attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is
easily made and may be easily avoided.
To find out correctly, set your urine
aside for twenty four hours; sedi-
ment or settling indicates kidney or
bladder trouble. The mild and extra
ordinary effect of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney, and bladder
remedy is soon realized. If you need
medicine you should have the best.
At druggists fifty cents and one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and
phamphlet, both sent free by mail.

What We Grew Last Year.

Estimates made by the Agricultural
Department put the total value of grain
and hay and potatoes raised in the
United States last year at the enor-
nous sum of 81, ,612, 929, 553, divided as
follows: Corn, $5O1, ,O72, 952; wheat,
$42S, 547, 1871; hay, $4O1, 800, 72s; oats,
$147, 974, 719; potatoes, $S9, 64S, O59; bar
ley, $25, 149, 139; rye, $12, ,239, 647;
buckwheat, SO, ,S19, 1888.
The United States is indeed land
of plenty. The best feature of this
magnificent showing of the earths in
crease is that there is a market for
nearly every ton raised We can feed
ourselves and much of the rest of the
world in addition. These figures do
not include fruits, vegetables generally,
nuts and berries, tons of which should
also go to the credit of the land.

The Coming Session of Conference.

Bishop John p. Newman. who will
preside at the next annual session of
the Wilmington Methodist Episcopal
Conference, which will be held Mt
Lewes i'll March, has been invited to
preach in Grace Church, Wilmington.
Interest in the question of who will
succeed the Rev Louis f. Barrett.
ID. d., as presiding elder becomes more
intense daily. The Rev. Ezra Tinker.
LII. D., of Asbury Church, The Rev.
John ID. c. Hanna, of Union, and the
Rev. w. L. s. Murray. d. D., of St.
PauIs, head the list of possibilities.
while the selection of the Rev. Vaughn
5. Collins, recently of New Castle but
now of Georgetown, is regarded as not
improbable.
1t is declared that outside forces are
working in behalf of Mr.. Hanna. The
Rev John A. B. Wilson, D. d.,
formerly of this Conference, but now
OF San Francisco, it is stated, has writ
ten to an influential layman in Will
mlngton, urging him to use his in
huence to secure the appointment of
Mr.. Hanna as presiding elder. This
alleged action on the part Of DR.. Will
SON. it is claimed, is indiscreet, and
will stir up the old animosities and pos
sibly will cause the scenes of the mem
orable conference session at Grace
Church, in 1892, to be repeated at
Lewes.
The Rev. John France, pastor of
Goodman Church, has decided to retire
from the active ministry The Rev.
H. G. Budd of Perryville, has un-
officially been asked to become pastor

Instead of extending pastoral in
vitatiOn, Brandywine Church has ap-
pointed committee to 90 to Lewes,
