HIVE. YOU TRIED y
SWAMP ROOT {?
THE WONDERFUL new DISCOVERY.
As Proof of its Marvellous Merits Every Reader of The
Age-HeralG' May Have Sample Bottle Sent
Absolutely Free by Mail.

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases of the
kidneys and bladder than. by any other
disease.
For years medical science has been try
ing to discover some remedy that would
positively overcome these dangerous trou-
bles. But not until recently was the dis
covery made. Dr. Kilmer the eminent kid
ney and bladder specialist, after years of
study and research, and after test on test
that never varied in the grand result, an
nounced the discovery of Swamp-Root,
which has proven itself most wonderful
cure for all diseases of the kidneys and
bladder.
The immediate symptoms and first proofs
of weak kidneys are pain or dull ache in
the back rheumatism, dizziness, head
aches, nervousness, heart trouble, pain in
the limbs bloating, sallow complexion,
puffy or dark circles under the eyes, blad-
der irritation, suppression of urine obliged
to pass water often day and night, worm
out, tired feeling, lack of ambition.
If your water, when allowed to remain
undisturbed in glass bottle for twenty
four hours, forms sediment or settling,
or has a cloudy appearance. it is evidence
that your kidneys and bladder need imme-
date attention
SWamp-lfOOt mas Deen rested III 50 many
ways. in hospital work in private practice,
among the helpless too poor to purchase
relief, and has proved so successful in
every case, that special arrangement has
been made by which all readers of the Age
Herald, who have not already tried it, may
have a sample bottle sent absolutely free
by mail. Also book telling more about
Swamp-Root and containing some of the
thousands upon thousands of testimonial
letters received from men and women VINO
owe their good health--in fact, their very
lives-to the wonderful curative properties
of Swamp-Root. Be sure and mention the
Birmingham Daily Age-Herald when send
ing your address to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bing-
hampton, N. Y.
This great modern discovery is for sale

This very interesting statement hardly
needs explanation. Regarding only the
principal items it shows that the increase
in all current liabilities is almost exactly
balanced by an increase in current assets:
that in the three years sS5,O0O,0OO was raised
by the sale of stock or the issue of fixed
obligations, and ST. 600 more came from
surplus earnings and bills collected; and
that of the funds thus received $11,OOO,000
was put into the road Qncluding the Mem
phis and Charleston purchase) and about
50, 900, 600. into equipment, while upward OF
$10,000,OO0 was invested in securities and $l2,-
100000 was used to pay various debts. This
is the story in brief of the Southern's finan-
cial operations since it's organization. Some
of the many interesting facts in its trafi1c
and operating returns may be considered

Arizona Day by Day
 Live News Taken From Territorial Exchanges.

News pair, but since the exigencies of the Pacific have caused the Iowa and Oregon to be transferred to that ocean, it is already time to have the loss thereby occasioned in the Atlantic re paired by the addition of two new armorclads.
 The chief point of interest in the forthcoming trial is that it will be the first in which the system of super posed turrets is involved. In the Rear sarge and Kentucky the eight-inch guns are mounted directly above the thirteen-inch. This is a novelty which distin guishes these vessels from all others, here Or elsewhere.
 The effect, so far as the use of the battery is concerned, will be developed by firing after the vessels are com pleted and commissioned; but the question as to the influence of this ar rangement on buoyancy, trim or hand mess may be determined during the steam tgials-New York Sun.

THE REBUILDING OF KHARTOUM

One of the great cities of Africa. laid in ruins by the Khalifa Abdullah in 1856, is being rebuilt as fast as hun dred5 of artisans can advance the work. Before the Mahdist revolt, all the commercial exchanges of Europe and Egypt with the regions of the up per Nile took place in this city It was the center from which military expeditions issued and the starting point of commercial and scientific parties bound for Central Africa. It is doubtful if the Mahdi would have de- stroyed Khartoum, for it's site, on the Blue Nile, is a far better situation for . large city than that or Omdurman, a few miles to the west on the White Nile. Mohammed Ali had chosen wisely when he said Khartoum was the most favorable position for the capital of his vast possessions in the Soudan, and ten years after he built his barracks and arsenal Khartoum was the first otty in the Nile basin south of Cairo
 The weakest and most pitiful req sons dictated the destruction of khar- toum, with it's strong stone buildings, frts and walls. The Khalifa Abdullah was jealous of the deceased Mahdi's family, who were very popular and used the relationship that had lifted them cut CD obscurity to advance their private fortunes. They had establish ed themselves in the best houses and gardens of Kharlous and led lives of ease and luxury In August, 1886, Abdullah declared that he could not properly supervise the lives and ac- tfons of the inhabitants of Khartoum and ordered the evacuation of the city within three days. On the fourth day the destruction of the city began, and the only buildings spared were the palace. the mission house and the ar senaI in which, throughout the rule of the Khalifa, munitions of war were constantly making.-New York Sun.

CROOKS AND THEIR ALIASES.
Show Little Originality in the Selec-
 tion of New Names.

"It is a curious fact" remarked an old police official, that whenla crimi- nal chooses an alias he nearly always
 selects one having his own initials. Whether this is merely instinctive or whether it is done to correspond with
 markings on linen and so forth I have
 never been able to determine. As a rule, crooks display little imagination in the cCining of names. When one of them tells a cock-andbull story to an officer and Jugs in a few fictitious char
 acters, the christening is not apt to extend beyond Smith, Jones and
 Brown, and that reminds me, by the way, of curious incident. Some years ago a young man named Will Meyers murdered farmer near At lanta and after an exciting chase was caught in Cincinnati. He insisted, af- ter arrest, that the crime had been committed by a man named Brown Allen, and when investigation showed the story to be palpably false a good deal of curiosity was expressed as to why he should have chosen that pecu- liar, hyphenated name. One day de- tective was standing in a stairway which led to a room formerly occu- pied by the young murderer, and, hap pening to glance across the street read the two names, Brown Allen, on large gilt sign over a drug store. Tha inscription was really Brown & Allen,' but telegraph poe C5scured the 'tS' That solved the mystery. No doubt Meyers had Cften stood at just that point aimlessly studying the street, and unconsciously the sign became so firmly impressed on his brain that when he cast about, on the spur of the moment, for a name for the imaginary assassin, he immediately thought z: Brown-Allen. As he escaped from jail and is now at large, he might tell us, if he desired, whether the theory is correct, but I am willing to bet money on it. t.''-Philadelphia Item
