The Sunday sun says:
There never was IA time when the
queen was more beloved. Mover has
she been so nea her people in the
course of her long reign AS during the
course of the war which has knit the
empire together. 1t is impossible for
anyone To seriously considered Eng.
land and the English without the au.
gust presence of one who has cndeared
herself to her people in "a peculiar man
ner and to a degree unattainablc by
the sovereign of any other land
The Sunday Special says;
Under the circumstances the ma
ton may mourn for the sovereignty
they have lost, but surely the sover-
eign is as happy in her death as in
life, nor has there ever been a ruler
more worthy of the cpitaph Sir Henry
Lawrence wi she'd, the noole,t "A man

 Trouble and Never Suspect It.
Kidney Remedy SWAMPROO Will Do for YOU Every
 Reader of Age.1erad May Have Sample Bottle FREE.
Women as We'll as Men are Made Miserable by Kidney and
 Bladder Troubles.

It used to be considered that only uri- nary and bladder troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern, science proves that nearly all diseases have their beginning in the disorder of these most important organs.
 The kidneys filter and purify the blood that is their work. So when your Nd- neys are weak or out of order you can understand how quickly your entire body Is affected and how every organ seems to fail to do it's duty.
 If you are sick or feel badly" begin taking the famous new discovery, pr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, because as soon as your Kidneys are well they will help all the other organs to health. trial will convince anyone.
 Many women suffer untold misery be- cause the ature of their disease Is not correctly understood. In most cases they are led to believe that womb trouble or female weakness of some sort is respon-
  disordered kidneys are the chief cause cf their distressing troubles.
 Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy or dark circles under the eyes, rheuma- tism, dragging pain or dull ache In the back, weakness or bearing down sensa- tion, profuse or scanty supply or urine, 1 a1tr to 10 1t night or day, with scalding or burning sensation - these are all unmistakable signs of kidney and bladder trouble.
 If there is any doubt in your mind as to your condition, take from your urine on rising about four ounces, place 1t in a glass or bottle and let 1t stand twenty four hours. If on examination 1t is milky or cloudy, if there Is a brick-dust set ting, or if small particles float about in 1t, your kidneys are in need of immediate attention.
 Other symptoms showing that you need Swamp-Root are sleeplessness, dizziness, irregular heart breathlessness, saliow. unhealthy complexion, plenty of ambition but no strength.
 Swamp Root Is pleasant, to, take and Is used in the leading hospitals. recom- mended by physicians in their private practice, and Is taken by doctors them selves, because they recognize in 1t the greatest and most successful remedy thai science has ever been able to compound If you are already convinced tha Swamp Root Is what you need, you car purchase the regular fifty-cent, and one dollar bottles at the drug stores every where.

the inconvenience of being hanged until he is dead.
 So with the Supreme Court of the Unit ed States. If five learned gentlemen are of the opinion that an income tax, for in stance, Is unconstitutional, and four other equally potent, grave and reverend seig- niors think 1t Is not, the majority of one prevails, and the solemn act of the Sen ate and House of Representatives of the United States becomes a nullity.
 So again, if bodies having purely minis teriai or executive functions, as in case of boards of directors of corporations, for example, the majority rules the rights of the minority when lawfully expressed.
 Justice David J. Brewer, in his address to the Yale students on the 18th of F'ebru- ary last, strongly advocated the doctrine of the majority system in all cases, both civil and criminal.
 Yet some of these lawyers-good law yers, honest and patriotic lawyers-will roll their eyes in horror even at the thought or the very suggestion that 1t would be right and sensible to apply this majority system to juries.
 In criminal cases it would have the ef- feet practically of the suppression and destruction of the majestic breakers of human and divine law, even here in re- ligious Birmingham.
