The Kidney Complexion.

The pale, sallow, snnken-cheeked, dis
tressed looking people you SO often meet are
afflicted with Kidney Complexion"
Their kidneys are turning to parsnip
color. 50 is their complexion.
They may also have Indigestion or suffer
from sleeple-sness, rheumatism, neuralgia
brain trouble. nervous exhaustion and some
times the heart acts badly
The cause is weak unhealthy kidneys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney disease
does not find out what the trouble is until it
is almost too late, because the first symptoms
are so like mild sickness that they do not
think they need medicine or a doctor until
they find themselves sick in bed.
DR.. Kimers Swamp Root will build up
and strengthen their weak and diseased
kidneys, purify their diseased, kidney
poisoned blood, clear their complexion and
soon they will enjoy better health,
You can get the regular sizes at the drug
store, at fifty cents and one dollar, or you
may first prove for yourself the wonderful
virtues of this great discovery, swamp Root,
by sending your address to DR.. Kilmer & Co..
Binghamton, n. Y, for sample bottle and a
book that tells all about it. both sent u you
absolutely free by mail. When writing
kindly mention that you read this liberal

Litchi Nuts.

If you want your luncheon or dinner to
have an oriental flavor you will serve
course of litchi nuts The nuts are, to
begin with, hard TO obtain; they are, Sec
0ndly, not given away for the asking, and
hey are, thirdly, novelty of novelties to
the average diner out. They come from
China, and in taste, odor and appearance
they have all the orientalism of most such
products. A single litchi nut will for
days dispense its subtle, penetrating fra
GRANGE, scenting everything that comes in
contact with it, The nut is about the size
and shape Of the ordinary walnut, it's shell
looking much like that of the butternut
as regards color and corrugation.
No cracker is needed TO open the nuts.
Press the shell ever so slightly between
the finger tips and it crushes like an egg
shell. Inside is kernel that looks like
an diversified raisin. It tastes something
like a raisin, too, only it is much more
concentrated. Transform the very sweet
and very pervasiye odor of sandalwood
into taste, and you have the flavor Of
litchi nuts. Within the raisinlike kernel
is seed like that of the date.
Litchi nuts are delicious, but no
hostess need ever fear that her guests will
devour them to the exclusion Of all other
viands The nut is too concentrated for
that. Two are about as many as the
ordinary palate can dispose of. In addi-
tion to their other merits litchi nuts are,
therefore, an economy. New York Sun.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES.
Do Not Be Alarmed, But Look For The
Cause

Cause.
Heart troubles, at least among the mcri-
cans, are certainly increasing and while this
may be largely due to the excitement and
worry Of American business life, it is more
often the result Of weak stomachs, of poor
digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable but not
one case in hundred of heart trouble is or
gauc.
The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion is because both organs are
controlled by the same great nerves, the
Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is affected
by the form of poor Digestion which causes
gas aud fermentation from half digested
food There is feeling Of oppression and
heaviuess in the chest caused by pressure of
the distended stomach Oh the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action hence
arises palpitation and short breath
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin and watery, which irritates
and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart trou-
bic is to improve the digestion and to insure
the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use after
meals of some safe, pleasant and effective
digestive preparation, like Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets, which may be found at most
drug stores and which contain valuable,
harmless digestive elements in pleasant,
convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular persistent
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at meal
time will cure any form of stomach trouble
except cancer of the stomach
Full sized package of these tablets sold by
druggists at so cents. Little book on stom-
ach troubles mailed free Address f. A.

TIE MILES INQUIRY.
Al1ns Officers Declare the Canned
Roast Beef Unfit For Food.

Almg Oficers Declare the Canned
Roast Beef Unfit For Food.
Washington. Feb 22.-The court of
inquiry engaged in investigating the
beef charges preferred by General Miles
continued yesterday the hearing of tes-
timony bearing upon the controversy. A
number of army officers who participated
in the Santiago campaign were heard
Practically without exception the Off
GERS condemned the canned roast beef
furnished as a travel ration, and review
ed complaints about it which the men
very generally made, declaring it un-
palatable and wanting in nutriment. On
the other hand, the refrigerated beef suf-
fered but little at the hands Of the wit
nesses, it being generally conceded that
it was good when delivered from the
transports and when it escaped the de-
composing effect of the tropical sun en-
route to the several commands it was
found to be satisfactory. There was
very little in the evidence pointing to
any use of chemicals upon this beef.
The contention of General Miles that
the army in Cuba and Porto Rico should
have been supplied with herds Of cattle,
or beef on the hoof, instead Of refriger-
ated beef, was supported by every wit
ness who gave his opinion upon this
question A feature of the examination
was the general assertion Of witnesses
that they would not have felt it their
duty to the men or the army organization
to have made any special report upon the
beef had it not been for the special or
ders calling for such reports. A number
of officers testified to the belief that a
very small proportion of sickness in Cuba
was due to the beef or unwhOlesome ra-
tions. but rather to the climate. Among
the officers to appear before the investi-
gators are General Joe Wheeler and
Governor Roosevelt.
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1899-02-22

GEN. MILES has shown the right
spirit in frankly stating that he had
no intention of imputing corruption
to the War Department. On the
main point, however, the quality and
condition of the army beef supply,
the Commanding General sticks to
his severe arraignment of contractors,
and calls to his support a cloud of
witnesses, who will testify in detail,
if so required, as to what the soldiers
were called upon to endure. The
Court ofInquiry has but one path
way to follow, viz, get at the truth
and all the truth The people want
all the facts, and they will be content
with nothing less. The men who
wear the uniform of the United States
army are entitled to fair hearing,
and no pressure of outside intere SITS,
however powerful, should prevent
this.

FRANKLIN,s TOLERANCE.
The Philosopher Always Ready TO
Serve His Sectnrian Friends.

The Philosopher Always Ready to
Serve His Sectarian Friends.
One usually thinks of Franklin as any
thing but religious man, and religious
in the orthodox, conventional sense he GER
tainly was not. Yet he was believer in
God and immortality and the efficacy of
good works His close personal friends
were, many Of them, devout Christians.
In the chapter on "Franklin's Religion"
in his MANY Sided Franklin" series in
The Century Mr.. Paul L. Ford says:
Franklin had that rarest kind of toler-
ance which tolerates the opinions of others,
and though he laughingly asserted that
" Orthodoxy is my doxy and heterodoxy
is your doxy" his whole life was one CON
tradiction Of the epigram, for the faith or
lack of faith of his circle Of friends ranged
from the most doctrinal of ministers to
the most radical Of free thinkers. For such
rigid Puritans as the Rev. Drs. Cooper
and Mather of Boston, for the enthusiast
Whitetleld, for the Anglican bishop Of st.
Asaph and for the Abbes de La Roche
and Morellet he showed as much affection
and respect as he did for Hume, Lord LIE
Dispenser, Thomas Paine and others
closer in accord with his own views. Nor
was it ever one sided regard. No man
In Pennsylvania exercised such influence
over the Quakers. Massachusetts made
him her agent in Great Britain, and he
served her faithfully, even to the defend
ing of her religious intolerance against
English criticism. In France the papal
nuncio consulted him frequently and fol-
lowed his advice in the changes the Revo-
lutionary war made possible or necessary
in the Catholic church in America. Alb
solutely unsectarian as he was, Franklin
apparently was trusted by all sects, and he
seems never to have refused a service that
he could render any one of them.

The man in the street car affirmed that
it was true story, but the Cleveland
Leader does not vouch for it, although
giving it in the narrator's own words
was up at the market house night be-
fore last buying stuff for over Sunday,
and saw an Irishman up there with a
live goose under his arm. Pretty soon the
goose looked up at the Irishman kind Of
pitiful and says;
'Quawk, quawk, quawk," in that
coaxing way goose has sometimes.
The Irishman didn't say anything st
first, but after bit the goose looks up and
says, "Qeawk, quawk, quawk," again.
Then the Irishman cooked his head over
on one side looked the goose In the eye
and says:

Principal Witnesses Yesterday.

MRS. Molineux and Mrs. Rogers the
Principal Witnesses Yesterday.
New York, Feb. 22.-Thrce important
witnesses, Mrs. Roland Il. Molneux.
Mrs. Florence Rogers and DR. Wendell
Q. Phillips, wefe examined yesterday at
the coroner's Investigation into the poi.
soning Of Mrs. Kate j. Adams, and their
testimony, though very interesting, threw
no light upon the mystery surrounding
the case. Mrs. MolineuN's appearance,
accompanied by her husband and his
mother, created much excitement, and
the court room was quickly crowded to
its capacity. While Mrs Molineux was
giving her testimony Mr. Molineux's
mother sat beside her The witness,
though very pale, appeared self possess
ed and inclined to answer all questions
frankly. She said that Molincuy had in
troduced her to Barnet who had never
been a rival Of her husband Barnet had
sent flowers and other gifts to her. She
emphatically denied that she had ever
been photographed with Barnet. She
had. at the suggestion Of her husband
sent flowers and letter to Barnet while
the latter was ill., She denied that she
had ever been ON yachting trip with
Barnet but admitted that she had Wis
tied the rooms of Barnet and MolineuX,
where wine was drunk. She told how
she met NlolipeuX. and said that she had
declined his first offer OF marriage.
Early in the day Mrs Florence Rog-
ers, daughter Of Mrs. Adams, was cross.
examined at length. She bore the ordeal
well, although many searching ques-
tions were asked her. She acknowledged
having had a private letter box for sew
eral years, because she did not want her
husband to know of her business af-
fairs. She was legally separated from
her husband at her own desire, satisfied
that she had good cause.
DIR. Wendell C. Phillips. who, with DR.
Douglass, attended Barnet insisted that
when he was first called to Barncts side
there were no symptoms Of diphtheria.
There was. he said, evidence of poison in
Barnet's condition.

DECLINED TO GUST THE BISHOPS.

The Sarcasm of Lord Salisbury's Son
Amuses the British Commoners.
London, Feb. 22.-By a vote of POO
against 100 the house of commons re-
jected the motion to remove the bishops
from the house of lords on the ground
that their presence there is incompatible
with their religious duties The debate
was notable for a remarkable proposal
by Lord Salisbury's son. Lord Hugh
Cecil, Conservative member of parlia-
ment for Greenwich, who, in a quantity
amusing speech, moved an amendment
suggesting that, instead of removing the
bishops, it would be preferable to create
the great non-conformist preachers life
peers, and so make the house Of lords
more representative of the educated
classes Arthur j. Balfour, the gov
ernment leader, described Lord Cecil's
proposal as embarrassing and uncon-
ventional," and urged him to withdraw
the amendment. The house was highly
amused at the incident and the amend
ment was negatiyed without division.

A CreditahIe wnr Showing.

Washington, Feb. 22.-In reaching the
decision to recommend a long term of
Imprisonment in the case of private
in an Alabama regiment who had killed
man in an ARRAY, Judge Advocate
General Lieber has completed a remark
able record, disposing of the last of the
capital cases that had come before his
department for review, without in any
single case imposing the death penalty.
Thus the war has passed without the
execution of a single soldier on account
of military crimes. This is believed to
be without parallel in history. There
were crimes committed, but they lacked
malice or premeditation. and there were
no desertions because of cowardice or
treachery.

senator Cockreil Declares the Hun
Army Bin Cannot Pass


Army Bill Cannot Pass
Washington, Feb. 22-Formal discus
sion Of the Hull-Hawley army reorgan-
izaiion bill was begun in the senate yes
terday afternoon. Mr.. Hswley and Mr.
Warren, Republicans, supported the
measure and Mr.. Mitchell and Mr.. Cock
rel, Democrats. opposed it, while Mr..
Proctor. Republican, addressed the sen
ate in favor of some amendments which
he had proposed in the bill All the
speakers are members of H., committee
on military affairs. Mr.. Cock els speech,
though brief. was particularly notable,
as he spoke definitely for the opposition
to the army bill He declared practical
ly in so many words that the llull-Haw-
ley bill could not become law mt TINS
session. He and those who stood with
him were willing to give the president
all the money and every man he desired,
but they were determined that no great
standing army should he fastened upon
the country without full and free dis
cussiOn.
The house reached the last page Of the
naval bill yesterday and adjourned with
a point Of order pending against pro-
vision fixing the price Of armor plate at
$545 per ton. The provision in the bill
went out on n point of order on the
ground that II was not limited to the
armor to be purchased with the appro-
priation in the bill, whereupon it was
modified to meet this objection, and
against it the point of order pending an
adjournment was raised. Much of the
time was occupied in debating the
amendment offered by Mr.. Mudd Md
appropriating $720,000 to complete the
three buildings authorized to be erected
at the Naval academy at Annapolis. The
naval committee, with the exception Of
Mr.. Cummings. strenuously opposed pro-
ceedng with the work of rehabiitating
the Naval academy until comprehensive
plans had been decided upon, but the
house overruled the committee and adopt
ed the amendment, 10 to 53.

The Victory is Complete.

The result of the battle of the bal
lots yesterday was a grand victory for
the Citizens ticket, and a rebuke to
Democratic mismanagement Of bor-
ough affairs during the past year
The people demand reform along GER
tain lines, and if tits not forthcoming
during the year there will be a greater
uprising next February than that of
yesterday The coming administra-
tion will have many important prob
lens to deal with, and those in au-
thority will be looked to for a faithful
performance Of their duties.
The Democrats massed their forces
in the Second ward, and money was
used freely to defeat the Republican
nominees. Councilman BoehIu was
selected as the target by the mud
singers, his personal character was
attacked in an unscrupulous manner,
but his friends rallied to his support
and returned him to Council The
people of that ward have no use for
bush wackers, and latter feel their
rebuke keenly. Their energy was
worthy better cause.
The greatest victory of the day,
however, was recorded in the strong
Democratic district OF the Fourth
ward The Citizens party carried
everything before them The only
consolation the Democracy has is in
the election Of the School Director
Even his majority WIS cut down from
1856 last year to So this year just one
hundred less This victory alone is
