Thousands who have written for one
of the free trial bottles Of DR.. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy have literally

They got the trial bottle, and it proved
to them that Dr. David Kennedy's Favor
lite Remedy was the only real cure for
diseases of the kidneys, liver, bladder and
blood, rheumatism, dyspepsia and chronic
constipation. They bought large sized
bottle of their druggists and it benefited
or cured them 1.-THE above is not an idle
statement, but the result of careful inves-
tigation.(
You can do the same thing. Ifyou are
in doubt as to whether you have trouble
with your kidneys or bladder put some
of your urine in glass tumbler and let
it stand "a hours; if it has a sediment,
or milky, cloudy appearance, II 1t is
ropy or stringy, pale or discolored, you
should lose no time in taking DR.. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy; it can be
had of all druggists at $100 large bot

inability to hold urine and all the un..
pleasant and dangerous effects produced
on the sy stem by the use of whiskey and

ELLEN OSBORN'S LETTER

Fabyan's, N. H., Aug. 2o.-"My great,
great-oh. l don't know how any greats
grandmother was Orange Irish,' said
THE girl in the gray felt hat; and some
tilme-I haven't any idea when-the us
ter Catholics made a raid. II her nurse
hid her in a bakers oven, and then
slipped over to England and finally to
American with her."
The girl in the golf sunbonnet replied
deliberately: zone of my ancestresses
was Hannah Dustin, who was taken
prisoner by the Indians in the massacre
at Deerfield, Mass. during King Philips
war. In the night she scalped a lot of the
Indians and padded off in one of their
canoes"
The girl in the soft gray felt hat was
silent, overawed by the redder blood Of
this information. The young man in the
green golfing coat remarked, You seem
to come of fighting stock"
The girl in the golf sunbonnet% returned
his glance, cOloring. She looked after

and lOunged away.

There is no dress the country house
visitor regards with more affection than
her tea gown. In winter the well-dressed
American ooks askance at the most be-
witching of tea dresses when presented
in the light of a reception robe, but in the
country cottage there Is no garment so
easeful for five o'clock, when the duties
of the afternoon are done. Meanwhile
crepe de chine cut in empire fashion
forms the prettiest of such toilettes seen
of late, with an under petticOat of white
Swiss, and a tiny bolero Of cream-white
guipure.
The summer has not been rich enough
in formal entertainments to bring forth
many novelties in evening dress, but a
dancing frock of white silk is most dain-
ty. Into the closely clinging tunic are
introduced large roses of white lace set
in openwork and dotted with silver a
giles. The lower skirt is of spangled es-
prit net, and the low silk bodice is deco
rated with silvered lace butterflies.
Prepared for the week when nothing
will be talked but yachting are innum-
cradle white serge dresses with short
basque coats, these being lined with tur-
quoise blue silk and decorated lavishly
with golden rope coils and anchors.
Something more distinctive is a skirt of
laide buff and blue cloth lined with
blue silk and destined to be worn with a
White duck shirt heavily embroidered
down the front in three broad bands Of
blue. The smart blue serge sea coat is
supplemented by a white duck yachting

SAVED A KINGS LIFE.

In 1896 Mohamgned Bahia usurped the
c: own of Granada in spite of the superior
claims of his elder brother Jussef. He
was very unsuccessful in his conduct Of
the war against the Christians and was
at length as~sassinated by poison absorb
ed through his skin from a shirt. He en-
tertained a desperate dislike to the
brother whom he had injured and when
he knew hat his own fate was sealed he
sent an order to the governor of the
prison in which Jussef was confined that
he should be executed Immediately. When
the order arrived Jussef was playing
chess with the chaplain of the prison.
With great difficulty Jussef obtained q
respite from the governor permitting him
to finish the anne Before 1t was ended,
however, news came that the usurper
had died Of the poison This cancelled
the order of the execution and Jussef,
instead Of going to the scaffold, mount
ed the throne.

UNIFORMS.

The number Of soldiers slain in battle
depends a great deal on the color of their
uniform. The more fiashy and conspicu-
Gus the helmet and jacket the better the
target. and consequently the greater the
mortality. Red attracts the eye most
readily. II twelve men wearing that
color are killed to seven in rifle green, or
six in blue. or five in either brown, blue
