A serious and dangerous disease pre-
walls in this country, dangerous because
so deceptive. 1t comes on SO slowly yet
surely that it is often firmly seated before.
we are aware Of it.
The name of this disease which may
be divided into three distinct stages is,
First, Kidney trouble, indicated by pain
in the back, rheumatism, lumbago, fire
quent desire to urinate, often with a
burning sensation, the flow Of urine
being c0pious or scant with strong door.
II allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with
heavy pain in the abdomen low down be-
tween the navel and the water passag e,
increasing desire to urinate, with scald-
ing sensation in passing, small quantities
being passed with difficulty, sometimes
necessary to draw it with instruments
If uric acid Or gravel has formed, it will
prove dangerous if neglected.
The Third stage is Bright's Disease

WASHINGTON letter.

From our Regular Correspondent IT,
WASHINGTON, May 5, 1899.-Presi-
dent Mckinley has had more prOmi-
nent congressional callers this week
than IN any single week since congress
adjourned. There is no specia Sig
nihcance in this. 1t Just happened
that many senator's and representa-
tives were in Washington, and thew,
of course, called on the president
Many Of the representatives were in
Washington IN connection with the
speakershlp contest. Their presence
started a lot of extra session rumors,
but no extra session has yet been de-
termined upon, although the necessi
ty for congressional legislation for
Hawaii and Porto Rico, and upon
other matters, causes many to De
! lieve that one will be called Ia ad
vance of the regular meeting, in De.
cember.
The latest from Gen Otis is salts
| factory. He thinks MS refusal for
J the third time of Aguinaldo's requests
/ for cessation Of hostillties, and his
continued hammering Of the Philip
pinos will shortly bring about accept
ance OF his terms OF uncOnditiOna
surrender. The news that Lieut..
Gilmore and most Of his men are
well, although prisoners Of the Flip
pinos, was joyfully received in Wash
ington. That they are being vel
treated is also taken as a. sign that
the Filippinos understand that the
end of the revol. is in sight. So gen
orally is this view Of the situation
taken that there is no longer ever
talk about the probability of a cal
for volunteers.
Nearly every one of the PRESIDENT
callers this week took occasion tc
say something nice about his pro
motion of Colonel Funston, Of Kan
sas, to be a brigadier-general.
Representative Henderson, of Iowa
one OF the leading candidates TO
speaker Of the house, is in Washing
ton. Speaking Of the contest h
said: Il regret to see sectionalisn
creep into this contest. The MAJ

Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1899-05-09

The most common ailment
among civilized people of today
is headache. The reason for
this is that nowadays people use
their brains more than they for
merlv did, and are also more sub
ject to nervous troubles, which
are the direct cause of headache.
Too much brain work takes
needed nerve force from the
heart and stomach to the head,
thus retarding the circulation
and deranging digestion. The
body is not fed-the nerves re-
bel. Sleep becomes a stranger.
Loss of appetite is followed by a
tired body and tortured brain.
You need rest. You know it,
but-you haven't time. DR.,
Miles Nervine will give you the
rest you need. It is for the
man or woman whose digestion
needs help, whose brain is over
worked and whose vitality is i'm
pared. IL gives focupofdIlVe
capacity to the organic functions
of the system and is speedy
remedy for nervous troubles of
every description.

mony to the thousands who have
already sounded praise for DR..

HAVANA, Aug. 27.-The strike of the
>masons in Havana is beginning to cause
genuine alarm among the citizens, as it
Is supposed that the bakers will go out
tomorrow, as they have threatened. A
strike on their part would cause a good
deal of hardship, as few private house
holders have facilities for baking their
own bread.
The hackmen also threaten to striks
within the next few days. if the strike
OF the masons does not soon terminate.
The merchants say everything is ripe
Tor strike that would mean a general
ue-up of business for a fortnight, as a
majority of the employees who have had
work Tor some months have saved money
and want rest. A sympathy strike
would give them their opportunity. Sc
nor Perfecto Laeoste, the mayor, and
Gen. Rafael Cardenas, chief of police, are
doing all in their power to persuade the
bakers not to go out
ANTI NALARIAL AGENT.
Owing to frequent recommendations to
Gov, Gen Brooke OF the eucalyptus tree
as an and-malarial agent, some investi-
cations into the subject have been car
RED on under his orders. Attention has
. been called to the success obtained in cul-
tivating the tree in the vast Champagne
di Roma. Italy. where eucalyptus is now
regarded as rendering the territory
much less unhealthy. The city of Mo-
rocco is cited as another instance. where
the floating gardens and ether malarial
districts are now stocked with young
trees with the result that places which
were maTshy and unhealthful have been
rendered dry and innocuous
One recommendation says that the

which was formerly malarial, has been
planted with eucalyptus, the outcome al.
ready being a. steady disappearance Of
marshy spots. The tree, which absorbs
the moisture. grows very rapidly, often
, ten feet year. The wood is very valu-
able and honey bees seek the flowers.
The honey, it is said, contains important
medicinal properties
INDORsED BY WOOD.
The tree department at Santiago de
Cuha, not knowing of the Investigations
IN progress under Gen. Brooke's direc-
ton recently made a request for several
thousand eucalyptus Slips, the requisi-
ton being strongly indCrsed by Gen.
Leonard Wood. The officials in charge
OF the yellow fever hospital planted sew
eraI slips some months ago and these are
now thriving. 1t is, believed that great
good win result from the investigations,
Several years ago experiments with the
eucalyptus tree were tried here, the re-
suit being satisfactory for the first four
years, after which it is said the trees
died but the consensus of opinion among
medical authorities is favorable to the
experiment. which Gen. Brooke will at
tempt at an early date on 3 large scale.
