WHAT Is THE USE?
No Need to Go Through Life a
Sufferer.
Means of Relief Near at Hand and Rec.
Omended by People You Know.

What is the use to go on suffering
with kidney backache, nervousness,
steeplessness and dizziness when a
5O-cent box of Morrow's Kid-ne-oids
will cure you? Probably you have
not heard of Kid-ne-oids, so if you
will read this statement it will paw
you ten fold.
We give you as reference George
Wilt. cigar manufacturer, who
lives at 343 New street, Peoria, I'll.
He says: Il have suffered for some
time with pain in my back and
through my kidneys, which were very
weak, and on that account had to
pass urine frequently. The urine
contained so much uric acid that it
caused much pain to pass it; it was
also highly colored and the odor was
offensive. l tried many different
kinds of remedies, but without any
permanent relief. Kid-ne-oids gave
me immediate relief, and / heartily
in this way, because Kid-ne-oids give
you relief and there are no bad effects
after usil 2 them; they strengthen
and build up the system"
Is this sufficient evidence to con-
vince you that Morrow's Kid-ne-oids
are a wonderful remedy for all form
of kidney disorders? Kid-ne-oids are
not pills, but yellow tablets, which is
a scientific form of preparation of
medicine. They are put in wooden
boxes which contain enough for
about two weeks treatment and sell
at 80 cents box at NJ. F. Bahnsen's
drug store.

Sam Jones and TalmaCe.

Sam Jones is the embodiment of an
audacity that sometimes comes very
near the border line of discourtesy. A
clergyman who often assists him in his
series of meetings told me the other day
this story in the early history of Mr..
Jones' evangelistic work: He was in
vited by DR.. Talmage to hold series of
meetings 10, in p, the Doctors Brooklyn
church. Mr.. Jones went to Dr. Tai
IMAGES home during the afternoon of
the day ON which his engagement began
and introduced himself. Mr.. Talmage
looked him over and was evidently a lit
tie taken aback at the rather shabby ap-
pearance of the evangelist. AS it APP
preached evening he said, Brother
Jones, would you take it amiss if pre-
sented you with new suit of clothes?"
Certainly not" said the accommodate
ing Samuel. He was taken to a clothier
and fitted from head to foot, topping all
with a high hat.
AT church the doctor introduced him
as the Rev. Samuel p. Jones from
Georgia Mr.. Jones arose with his new
hat in hand and repeated, Eyes, the
Rev. Samuel p. Jones from Georgia, I"
and added: And this is the new suit
of clothes and this the new hat your
pastor has presented TO me. If your pas
tor had as much of the grace of God in
his heart as he has pride, he would con-
vert all Brooklyn and would not need
me. "-Homiletic Review.

Gen. Lew wallace ON trusts.

Gen. Lew Wallace, who is bitterly
opposed to trusts, cites the work OF
the wire and steel trust in Crawfords-
Vile as disastrous example
What the trust has done here it
has done elsewhere, he said. 1T
must be checked, and that Immediate
ly. Proper legislation and officers
who will not shirk their duty are the
only recourse. Those barren build
ings of the wire fence company are 4
monument to the iniquity of trusts,
and it will be long time, indeed. be-
fore our city fully RECEIVERS. This
strangling of business enterprises
must stop or God only knows what
viii happen" The general grew in
tense as he continued: Now all
com binations are not trusts. Asso-
Citations under the statute and part
nerships are to be distinguished from
trusts in the proper sense, although
they are combinations. 1t is for the
courts to decide what is trust in the
offensive sense of the word. Trusts
proper are attended with a great
many dangers to the people. They
crush out competition. They take
employment from workingmen and
reduce them to condition
bordering on slavery. 1t is in the
power of trusts to engage in any in
dustrial branch to regulate the price
of a product, whatever it may be.
Every trust starts fairly in the begin
ming. Its disposition is to serve the
masses who have need of what it pro-
duces. But after a while. when it has
command of the market, and has
crushed out all competition, as they
are able to by their superior capital,
the trusts yield to the dictates of or
binary human nature. For the sake
of dividends, they drop all affectation
of care for the general outside inter-
ests and get all they can. The rich
do not feel the results; the burden
falls upon the poor.
The reign of trusts is to be COM
pared to the days of feudal lords.
They make vassals of the working
men and wage war upon the people.
l know nothing more reprehensible
than the neglect which has been
shown this evil by the national au-
thorities, from President Mckinley
down. He has an attorney general
who sits in his elegant Office in the
capital and sees the ini1uity multiply
every day and almost every hour, right
under his eyes.
The public will hold the president
responsible for the negligence and in
difference of his attorney general.
The only hope in the future of action
by the authorities, is in the organiZa-
tion of all workingmen."
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1899-07-08

HERE are the views of another re-
publican organ, the Portland Oregon
ian, on the McHanna administration:
The Mckinley administration has
made the most disgraceful appoint
mcnts to Office at the behest of I'M
scrupulous politicians. 1t has be-
trayed the civil service to the spoils-
men, paralvzed the organization of
the army, violated its pledges as to
currency reform, Inundated its most
efficient servants and discredited
American intelligence in the eyes of
the civilized world. In time for
courage it has quailed. In time for
decision it has hesitated. In a time
for action it has delayed. In n time
for honest dealing it has paltered and
eguivocated. Its policy has been to
drift; it's aim has been to placate
everybody, however unworthy, and
cater to everything, however mis-
chievous; it's course has been to sacri-
flee any and every vital interest of the
nation on the altar of partisan and
personal politics.

Solely the Administration. Bidding.

Rev. CLAY Macauley has written to
the Boston Transcript 4 letter from
Toxic, Japan, which is significant in
showing that earnestly as have the
heads of the two branches of the
American military service in the
Philippines striyen TO force the
subiugation of the natives to the
policy of the administration Meth
er has been in sympathy with
the move from the first. Mr.. Macau-
ley, who is well known in Washing
ton and a personal acquaintance of
the president, visited Manila in jan
uary in search of health. OF his
views then he writes: For 4 long
time / could not believe that the dis
astrous drift of events was known to
the Washington authorities. l was
inclined to lay the responsibility upon
the military commander directly in
charge. Yet now it seems clear to
me that Gen. Otis did his work in the
main in literal obedience to his supe-
riors in America; that there il was
assumed that the whole right and
duty concerning the future dispo-
sition and control of the Philippine
islands lay in the wishes and will of
the United States; that what the Fill
pinos themselves might wish need not
be taken into the account in formu
lating plans for their government"
The writer says he had talk with
Gen. Otis, and adds: Among other
things, Gen. Otis expressed regret
that there was not n better knowl
edge of the situation among the
Washington legislators than there

Brave Men Deprecate War.

Boston Herald
There is little foundation for the
assertion made by Mr.. Roosevelt that
a disposition to engage in war is nec-
essarily a proof of manliness. Gold
win Smith SAYS on this point that lit
is not in manly hearts, but in those
of women or of men of feminine tenn
permanent, that the war fever most
iiercely RACES and most clearly mani
tests it's effects" He cites the case
of the southern women in the civil
war, who, it is well remem bered, went
beyond the men of that time in their
insistence upon prolonging the strug-
gle.
The inferior nervous strength of
women has nothing to do with this; it
is the disposition toward war that we
are considering Brave men like Col.
Roosevelt may desire war, but that
they do is no proof of their bravery
The bravest generals of our armies, it
is well known. have deprecated war.

quoted remark, War is HE'LL

TWO TOlLERS.

Two men toiled side by side from sun to sun,
And both were poor;
Both sat with children when the day was done
About their door
One saw the beautiful in crimson cloud
And shining moon;
The other, with his head in sadness bowed,
Made night of noon.
One loved each tree and flower and singing
bird
On mount or plain;
No music in the soul of one was stirred
BY leaf or rain.
One saw the good in every fellow man,
And hoped the best;
The other marveled at his masters plan.
And doubt confessed.
One. having heaven above and heaven below
Was satisfied;
The other. discontinued. lived in woe,
And hopeless died
