IMPERFECT DRAINS
Care Should Be Taken That the 1mpuI.
 ities Be Properly Carried Off

Everyone knows of the fatal results which follow the stoppage of the drains in house.
 Queen Victoria's husband, the Prince Con- sort died from poisonous germs, which
 were generated in the palace by the stop page of the drains.
 The Kidneys, among their many other functions act as drains to the body. Through them the blood passes to be puri- fled. leaving behind mass of effete matter,
 which it is their duty to eject from the
 system.
 When however the kidneys become con- gested and all cogged up, this refuse matter
 accumuates and becomes an active poison,
 and, in course of time, infects the whole
 man, and eventually, if the cause IS not
 removed, it occasions sudden death, the
 patient drowning, as it were, in his own
 secretions
 The symptoms which nature puts forth
 like danger signals to tell us that the kid-
 neys no longer do their duty are too nu- merous to set forth.
 Nearly always women's peculiar ailments in their more aggravated and protracted forms are traceable to this sourse, and rheumatism, in all it's varied phases; while pneumonia and Bright's disease are put the continuation of an organic trouple' WHICH,
 had it been treated organically and not symptomatically, could not possibly nave had any such fatal termination. Coughs and colds, strange as 1t may seem' are oftentimes symptoms of trouble m the kidneys. NWf,at must be done, then, in these cases? 1t is surely unwise to treat symptoms, when we can at once heal the organ from whence the symptoms rise Let us then at once go to the root or the | tfouble and heal the kidneys. yrhare is remedy, known all the world over that will strengthen them, so that | they can perform their functions; feeding | them and cleansing them in such marvel o,,s manner that the patient immediately l feels the good work that IS gong on, ana ir few weeks is able to join the ranks of tse many thousands who gratefully ac- knowledge that they owe health and strength, and sometimes life itself. to this l unfailing remedy, Warmers Safe Cure.

SHE DID WELL.
England Pleased With the Re-
suit Of Arbitration.
Didn't Get All She Claimed But
is Satisfied.
DOUBTS STILL EXIST.
Little Faith In It's Universal
Application.
Varying Sentiments Expressed
by London Papers.
DOUBTS STILL EXIST.

London, Oct. 4.-The award of the
Anglo Venezuelan boundary arbitra-
ton commission is regarded by the at
ternoon papers as eminently satisfac-
tory from an English point of view, but
as hardly proof of the practicability
of universal arbitration.
The Pail Mall Gazette says:
Without doubt Great Britain has
done uncommonly well, as is proved by
the comments of former President Har-
rison. If it were not already sufficient
~ obvious, it is now made clear that
the arbitration has shown the DISPOSE
ton of one government to be patient
and pleasing, rather than risk a sinful
and unnatural quarrel This must have
its impression in America and thus
must have sown good seed. which has
already grown into fiourishing plant
The st. James Gazette says:
THE outcome is not the result OF
arbitration but of friendly compromise,
as stated by former President Harri-
son. We have not got all we wanted,
nor all to which we are entitled; but ar
bitration has resulted in giving British
Guiana an indisputable title to the
Northwestern district, where her future
lies.
Every one will gladly join in the
universal congratulations to the tri-
bunal upon the happy result of difficult
and delicate labOrs."
1.-The result is decidedly satisfactory
The extreme contentious of both parties
have been set aside; but the substantial
point is that Great Britain gets more
than, on various occasions, she had
expressed herself as willing to concede
to Venezuela. The practical feature of
the case is that we have substantially
succeeded against Venezuela, while
vastly improving our relations with the
United States. The award and the
rapidity with which it was rendered can
not fail to give a strong impetus to in
ternationa1 arbitration
The Globe. adopting its usual often
siYe tone, says:
For once arbitration has not op-
Grated to our advantage. There are
others besides the VenezueIans who
shoulder it.
Besides the Venezuelans should not
recognize that Great Britain will not
suffer what she considers her rights to
be subjected to the terrorism of war
like menace, whether in one part of the
world or in another, whether by a great
state or by a small state"
