Kidney trouble has become so prevalent
that it is not uncommon for a child to be

child urinates too often, if the urine scalds
the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an
age when it should be able to control the
passage and it is yet afflicted with bed
wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the
difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleas-
ant trouble is due to diseased condition
of the kidneys and bladder and not to a
habit as most people suppose.

MOTHERS CONGRESS.
Mrs. 7. w. Birney Has an Article on
the Subject in The Cominc Ace.


The September number of the Coming
Age contains an excellent article on
the work of mothers congress and
clubs by Mrs. Theodore Weld Birnev
president of the National mothers con-
gress, who Is well known in Worcester
ana has been stopping with Mr.. and
MRS. +. ID. Perkey at the Dread for a
few days this week. Preceding the ar
ticle is an editorial sketch of Mrs. Bir
ney's life and her work toward the de-
velopment of the spiritual in the in
dlyidual, and the elevation of the home.
MRS Birney was born in Marietta,
Ga, her father being L. C. Mcclellan
a man of strong intellectual endow
ment and moral worth, who, although
living in slave territory, was opposed
tothe institution, and owned only such
as were absolutely necessary Miss
McLellans first husband was Alonzo i.
White, Jr., of Charleston, S. c., who
died less than two years after the mar.
riage. A number of years after she
married Theodore Weld Birney, a
young lawyer of Washington. the
gr. ndson of the abolition leader, James
G. Birney.
IL was after this marriage that she
conceived the idea of the mothers con-
gress, which has made her name well
known everywhere. The thought was
first presented in the summer Of 1895 at
Chautauqua, where series of moth
ers' meetings were being held In 1897
the call for the first congress went out
and met with such response as to as
tonish even the most sanguine of the
promoters.
The work, says Mrs. Birney in her
article, is essentially fundamental in
character. I'VE are endeavoring as far
as possible to save the race through the
child. We aim to substitute enlight-
eminent for ignorance in regard to ma
ternity-to make of every household a
home by educating the fathers and
mothers in true parenthood, by better
ing the condition of the home. multiply
ing its pleasures and creating more
ideal surroundings for the children"
