Sick-poison is poison which make
you sick. 1t comes from the stomach
The stomach makes it out of undigest
ed food.
The blood gets it and taints the whole
body with 1t. That's the waysof IT.
The way to be rid of it Is to look afte,
your digestion.
II your food is all properly digested
there will be none left In the stomach
to make sick-poison out of.
If your stomach is too weak to see to
this properly by itself, help it along
with few doses of Shaker Digestive
Cordial.
That's the cure of it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is a delici-
ons, healthful, tonic cordial, made of
pure medicinal plants, herbs and vine
1t positively cures indigestion and
prevents the formation of sick-poison

ONE OF Two WAYS,

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a 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 i'm
perfect action of the kidneys. The sec.
Ond way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder trou-
bles. So the womb, like the bladder,
was created for one purpose, and it not
doctored too much is not liable to
weakness or disease, except In rare
cases. 1t is situated back of aud very
close to the bladder, therefore any pain
disease or Inconvenience manifested 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 as easily avoided. To find
out correctly, set your urine for twenty
tour hours; a sedement or settling in
dictates kidney or bladder trouble. The
mild and the extraordinary effect of DR..
Kllmer's Swamp Root, the great kid
ney and bladder remedy is soon applied

THE WRECK WILL TELL IT'S
STORY.

Under the ecltement consequent up.
on the destruction of the battleshlp
Maine, all kinds of wild talk is INDUCED
in. All kinds of theories are advanced
and thousands Of men have already sat
In Judgment on the matter even before
the investigation has fairly begun.
The following from the PHILADELPHIA
Record Is the most sensible view we
have seen:
at is not to be believed that the
Spanish Government had any direct
agency in blowing up the battleship
Maine. 1t is, therefore, not expected
that investigation as to the cause of
the disaster will develop any incrimin-
ating evidence that would bring about
hostllities. Uunder these circumstances
the concession on the part of the
Spanlards that the investigation shall
be carried on independently by the
United States officials is wise. As
matter OF TACT, whilst the jurisdiction
of the United States could not be dis
puted on the wrecked vessel itself, the
Jurisdiction of Spain in the waters of
Havana harbor is equally clear. Spain
has given further proof of her friendl1-
ness in not insisting upon her sugges-
ton OF Joint investigation. There
has been such grave surmise that the
disaster was brought about by exterior
assault that If Spain had stood upon
the edge of her right in dealing with
the incident it would have had an nm
fortunate influence upon the suscepti-
bilities OF the people of this Country
already overweight by the horrors of
the Cuban situation and always ready
to fight upon apparent occasion.
"In insisting upon deliberate and
careful scrutiny of every iota OF eyid-
ence that could clear up the mystery
OF the explosion, through agents of Its
own appointment and by means of its
own devising, our Government has also
been wisely lnsistent. Nothing less
would have satisfied the public mind
and put an end to doubt. The wreck
will testify for Itself. Its dumb eyid-
ence will demonstrate beyond con-
tradictlOn whether interior or exterior
violence brought about the awful catas-
trophe. 1t may not definitely fix the
blame but it will show whether de-
feet or carelessness on the ship. or
hellishness on the shore, is responsible.
"Whilst investigation is being made
it is not only judlclous but reasonable
and right that public opinion should
remain suspended. No credence should
be given to the thousand-and-one In
that every day find their way
into the newspapers. There is no reason
why the fullest confidence should not
be reposed in our own Government and
II Its ability and willingness to main
ain at all hazards the credit and honor
If the nation"
