kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.

ITS HEREDITARY EFFECT.
Sins of Drunkenness Visited on In
fortunate Progeny to the Third
and Fourth Generation.

In recent sermon in the Union Cos
pei News by DIR. j. Wilbur Chapman, on
the 'Sinfulness of Sim he says: l
have been going through the institu-
tions where | have had the privilege of
looking upon the insane people con-
fined there, and | have found out the
following:
Many people are insane because of
the sins of their parents. Results of
crime on future generations. At the
recent meeting of the Congress of
Criminal AnthroPology at Geneva,
Switzerland, DIR. Legrain, physician-in-
chief of the asylum of Nille-Evrard,
gave the results of his investigation,
which extended over a period of years
and showed how sin, like disease, is
transmitted from drunken father to
appetite enslaved son; how in such soil
the seeds of crime and madness de-
vclop and ripen in the last general ton
into sterile idiocy and the extinction
of the race.
First Generation: He traced the
course of four generations of drink
ers in 215 families. One hundred and
siNty-eight families showed unmis-
taxable symptoms of degeneracy; 63
cases of mild insanity; IS were men
tally unsound; As at times dangerously
weddings and died at an early age,
out of s in one case, 10 out of 16 in an
other. These six latter who remained,
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1901-05-30

were all predetermined and had cpl
stincts. In SO families were found con-
vClsions; epilepsy in 50; hystera in
16: meningitis in 5; los families out of
the 215 counted one out of every two
individuals victims of periodic alco-
hole delirium; in 1O6 families of the
215. insanity had developed.
Second Generation: Ninety-eight
observations gave the following: Fiji
ty-foIr families had one or more MEM
bers who were imbeciles or idiots; in
% families there were those who were
morally irresponsible, untimely births,
extraordinary mortality and heredi-
tary diseases caused the children
to die in appalling numbers. At this
stage the fathers and mothers had be-
come common drunkards, with but
eight exceptions. In AZ families he
found chronic cases of commissions,
and epilepsy in 40. In % families in
sanity exists.
Third Generations: Seven observa-
tions, or families, gave him a total of
physically stunted; two were insane,
four subject to commissions. two ep-
ilepsy, two hysteria, one meningitis,
three scrofula.
Summing up the s14 causes found in
the 215 families, he found 1922 per cent.
were alcoholics, 600 per cent. were de-
generates, 1879 per cent. morally ire
sponsible, 22.7 per cent. have convus-
sions, 10 per cent. are incurably in
sane; 174 disappeared from this world
before or almost before having drawn
their first breath; 90 cases of tubercu-
losis which bring the total of those
who died from hereditary alcoholism
up to one-third.
There is no fifth generation. for the
last line is a microcephalous idiot,
Thus Moses was right, as proven by
science. when he said: GOD visits the
antiquities of the parents unto the third
and fourth generation of them that
hate Him" There is no fifth.

THEIR FIRST MEETING.

Basi's eyes opened. The girl flushed
crimson, and would have ran from the
room, but he caught her hands, and
before he was well aware he had told
her the story of his love, and she
had confessed that she loved him and
had loved him for a long time, and
that her great fear had been that his
pride would prevent him from tell
ing her the things that were in his
heart.
So when Basil was able to leave the
hospital ne and Isabelle were mar
ried. Then the problem of the fu-
ture had to be faced. He was de-
termined not to throw himself upon
Isabelle's people. But he could no
longer drive cab. He read the call
for volunteers for the imperial yeo-
many, and Isabelle smiled through
her tears as he left her to 90 to
South Africa with his regiment. For
valor at Ladysmith he was pro-
NOTED and received his d. s. O.. and
later on his commission and a place
in the regular service
And Isabelle now rejoices that she
once nearly murdered a cabby.

EMPRESS JOSEPHINE.
Chateau of MnimaisOn, Where She
Lived, to Be Preserved by the
French Government

No place in Paris is more historically
interesting than the estate of Malmai-
son, which is intimately and charming
ly associated with the great Napoleon
and Empress Josephine. The chateau
OF the beloved empress sits in the CEN
ter of large park, and the grounds
and the buildings have been bought by
the state as national property, to be
preserved as show place and an OBJ
Ject of enlightenment to the masses.
The estate was bought by Josephine
de Beauharnais in 1898, and the roman
tically located grounds afforded jose
phine and the future great conquerOr
their first TRUSTING places. The early
and the happiest days of their married
p life were spent there. and giant cedar
that stands behind the chateau marks
the spot where as youthful lovers they
played tag, with kisses for fOrfeits.
1t was there, too, that the emperor's
crown was first offered to Napoleon.
The royal couple seldom visited the
home of their courtship and early hap
piness during the glorious days of the
empire, but after her divorce the hu-
inflated empress sought seclusion in
this restful retreat, where she died

AN ENGLISH ROMANCE.
True story of a London Cabman Who
Married Rich Girl and Won
Army Commission.

Basil Longwood awoke one morn
ing to find that he was pauper. His
elder brother, upon whom the title
had descended and who had been
named as his guardian to care for his
property and give him an income
each year, was a hopeless bankrupt.
Investigation showed that were the
estate sold it would pay but small
amount of the debts that the brother
had incurred, and that the patrimony
which Basil's father had left him had
been squandered.
Not a single farthing of the for
tune which Basil had once thought
his own could he claim. His brother
had not only brought ruin upon the
family name, but disgrace as WELL
and to none of his former friends
would Basil go for help.
Basil went to London, and for
weeks sought some sort of employ
ment. He could find nothing. Final
ly, when he was almost starving, he
had an opportunity to get situation
as driver of a hansOme cab, and ac-
cepted at once.
For four years he drove the cab.
He had become somewhat embittered
and he refused to battle with destiny
He said to himself that fate had con-
spired to drag him down from his
high position. and he would submit
One day, while driving in a street
running into Hyde Park, a phaeton
drawn by a pair of gray horses and
driven by young girl came crashing
into his cab, and threw him to the
pavement. He was picked up and
carried into a drug store, where it
was found he was badly hurt. The
young woman who had driven the
dent, sat by him and expressed her
sorrow for the unfortunate cab
driver.
When Basil was taken to the hos
pital the young woman called upon
him there. Every day she came and
brought flowers and fruit and every
thing that could add to Basil's COM
fort. She would sit by his bedside
by the hour and read to him from
the books that he loved.
1t was some time before he found
courage to ask her name. When he
did it made him the more unhappy.
She was Isabelle Varness, the daugh-
ter of the baronet. Basil could only
think of himself as a cabman, and
never for moment would he permit
himself ever to speak to Isabelle of
love.
But one day while he was asleep
and the girl was sitting by him wait
ing for him to awake, she bent down
and kissed him on the forehead

Pharaoh's court and Daniel amidst

The appetite is the largest part of

MONUMENT TO JOSEPHINE.

five years later. A year afterward,
upon his return from Elba, Napoleon
passed a night at the chateau, plan
ming for his last disastrous campaign.
Queen HortenSe received him affec-
tionately at the home of her mother,
perhaps the only woman the great
conqueror ever really loved The last
there. After the battle of Waterloo
and abdication of the throne he re-
turned to Malmaison, whence he was
taken to his lonely exile on st. Helena,
a saddened and ambition-crushed
man.
After the property was sold by jose
phine's heirs, it passed through many
changes of proprietorship At various
times the chateau has been point of
attack by foes, having been sacked by
the Prussians, bombarded by the Ger
mans and besieged by other foreign
invaders. Naturally it was allowed to
fall into neglect and decay, but it is
now being restored, redecorated and
refurnished in exactly the same style
as when it was occupied by Napoleon
and Josephine.
In the neighboring village Of Reuil
is the grave of Empress Josephine,
which is marked by beautiful white
marble monument. The empress, ar
rayed in her court robes, is represent
ed in lneeling posture.
Queen Hortense, after the death of
her sonint the ROmangues, went to Wis

THE WIFE'S PURSE.

PEELED to ask her husband for money"
writes Edward Box, of THE Wife and
Her Money" in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal "She instinctively hesitates to do
it, and ofttimes she goes without
rather than ask. Every wife should be
given all that it is possible for the hus-
band to allow for household expenses,
and it should not be doled out to her
in driblets nor given to her as favor,
but as her right, and without ques-
ton. Over such share she should
have Independent sway to do with as
she sees fit for the wisest interests of
her home and children. That is one
rightful step. But there is still an
other. She should have an allowance

ton in saying that if the truth were
known it is just this humilating de-
pendence upon man for every little
trifie that a woman needs that is max
ing thousands of women restless and
anxious for outside careers. This is
the only fair excuse l have ever been
able to see for the hysterical rantings
of the modern advanced woman. III
