SAILORS ARE MORE INTELLIGENT
The Jolly Tar of Other Days Has Been
Replaced by an Up-to-Date seaman.

The recent popularity of American seamen
and the preference for them In the merchant
marine have sound explanation The sea-
man OF other days. the rollicking. hornpipe

enough in his way, but the conditions which
made possible his employment have so greatly
changed that up-to-date sailors are required,
and, naturally enough, when up-to-date sailors
are needed. American lack tars are right
in 1t. An authority on life on the ocean
wave has recently described the changes
in work on board ship as follows: Tho
modern ship differs very much, from the ship
OF years ago, Her rigging Is Of steel and the
sails are hoisted and the capstnn is turned by
steam. There are various mGchGniCal con-

Do 1T YOURSELF.

1t is easy to tell whether your X i'd
neys are deceased. Take bottle
or glass tumblsr and fill it with urine.
If there is a sediment-a powder-like e
substance-after standing day and
night, there is something wrong with
the Kidneys. Other sure signs of
disease are desire to urinate often,
pain in the back, or if your urine
stains linen.

Bladder and Blood, Rheumatism,
Dyspepsia and Chronic Constipation.

ity to hold urine and the necessity of
getting up number of times during
the night. Itputs an end to that
scalding pain when passing urine
