Trifling With Your Health

ney Trouble Attend
to 1t at Once.

1t is easy to tell whether your kidneys
or bladder are diseased. Take bottle
or glass tumbler and ill it with urine.
II there is II sediment-a powder-lilke
substance-after standing day and
night, if it is pale or discoored, ropy or
stringy, there is something wrong with
the kidneys. Other sure signs Of dis
ease are desire to urinate often, pain
in the back, or if your urine stains
linen.
There is no question that DR.. David
Kennedys Favorite Remedy is the best

The protection of Galveston from de-
structive storms and future invasions
of the waters of the gulf, such as near
ly overwhelmed the city in 1900, has
been serious problem since that ca
tastrophe. The low lying site of the city
makes the problem difficult, and the
enormous impairment of the tax pay
ing ability of the people makes it out of
the question TO raise new loans in the
ordinary way to pay for such works
as may be determined on. Recently a
board of engineers which had been
considering the subject reported that it
would he necessary TO build a sea wall
three miles long and seventeen feet
above low water and to build an earth
en- embankment back of this wall at a
total cost estimated at $1,750,000. A
popular subscription was immediately
opened to an issue of per cent bonds,
and at last accounts half of the sum
required had been pledged.

Hin Great Pressure.

The German officer is nothing If not
practical, so there may be an element
Of truth In the following amusing incl
dent, which comes from Berlin, says
the London Express:
A sergeant was perplexed how to
deal with bowlegged recruit. AT last
lie bethought himself of a plan. TAX
ing one mark piece, about the size OF
shilling, he ordered the recruit to put
it between his knees and said, Woe
betide you IL you let the money fall
before come back in five minutesp'
The unhappy recruit, With knees
pressed together, remained in that un.
comfortable position for minute, and
at last, struck by happy idea, he took
the coin from between his knees and
put 1t In his pocket.
When the sergeant hove in sight,
he hurriedly replaced what he thought
to be the same coin. 1t was, however,
two mark piece, about as large as q
form. The sergeant smiled as he COM
plimented the bowlegged recruit on
the great pressure he must have ex-
erted on the coin between his knees.

took the first working model of his
instrument TO john A, Logan and of.
fered him half interest for $500,
saying that it would do away with the
telegrap ph and that there would be mill
lions in it. Logan replied: Il dare say
your machine works perfectly, but who
would want to talk through such a
thing as that, anyway? advise you to
save your money, young man." Bell
then offered tenth interest to an ex-
aminer in the patent office for 500 in

Origin Of Trnnaar..

Something like century ago trou-

and may be said to owe their origin
TO old world royalty, which in those
days ate and especially drank very
heavily and was consequently afflicted
with gout and other maladies of
character to swell the leg. KneS
breeches and stoekings-so dear nos
only to the early presidents Of tine
United States and to the slgners of the
Declaration of Independence, but kke-
wise to the old Puritan element ct
America-were scarcely suitable for
swollen limbs, even II they belonged
to the anointed Of the Lord, and the
result was that George Nv. as prince
regent; his brothers, the Dukes of
York, Clarerce, Cumberland and Sus-
sex; the French princes. who after
ward reigned us Louis XVIII, Charles
x. and Louis Philippe; King Frederick

Hereaaty and Genius.

Expositions of the laws Of heredity
fail In affording no clew to the under
standing Of genius. AS these laws Of
inheritance are now expounded it
would seem that no offspring could
ever rise above the average level of
preceding generations, and we have all
had thousands Of commonplace an.
cestors. In animals excellence is, as q
rule. easily accounted for; in man 1t is
not So How comes 1t that In the same
family one member rises not merely
above all the rest, but above the bulk
of mankind? One only Of the Bona
parties was Napoleon; one only of
the Shakespeares could write Ham
let." And why should the son of an
ordinary Lincolnshire farmer and his
probably ordinary wife have turned
out not merely the greatest natural
philosopher Of his time, but Of all
time? We are still waiting for a sec.
Ond Isaac Newton. TO say that such
men are sports" Is to give us word
for a thing and merely to cover ig-
norance. The sport must be caused,
and what was the cause? The excel
lent work being done in tracing the in.
tluence of heredity only makes more
astounding these prodigies of genius

battle. who was in consequence Tilted
by his sweetheart and who then hung

And for the second time in life
Enlisted in the line.
''And there be hung till he was dead

For though despair had cut him up.
1t could not cue him down.
"There is q tremendous literature Of
humorous epitaphs. There must be,

"The other is grimmer:
"Life is a lie, and all things show it,

When the constitution of the United

ties. In two generations the descend
ants of the emigrants are fused into
Americans. The trace of their origin
hardly remains even in the names,
which have been changed into sur
names easily pronounced by American
postmen, expressmen. census agents
and all others who refuse to struggle
with foreign consonants. Only the
genealogist can trace and identify ra-
cial characteristics in the descendants
of peasant who eighty years ago
could not speak a word of English and
whose name was unpronounceable by
an American.
The trainers of the constitution of
the United States would not be go
much surprised by the telephone, the
trolley, and a railroad speed of sixty
miles an hour as by the union of the
states, our federal strength coupled
with the liberty of the individual states.
IL is not surprising that they used a
plural verb when the subject was the
colonies and the people who lived in
them. The union was a paper thing
and the states agreed to it tentative
ly. A plural verb was the only one the
Trainers could use. If they had said the
United States is the phrase would
have shocked some of the timid states
whose politicians were afraid that they
were signing away their liberties. II

tuition as it was. So small a word as
is, an insignificant verb of two let

men frightened by words than by act

The committee of the house of rep
sentatives proposes that congress shall
make law to the effect that whenever
the word United States" occurs in a
document it shall agree with a singular
verb. This action was suggested by
the pamphlet written by ex-Secretary
Of State Foster on this subject. Mr..
Foster shows that since the civil war
the preponderance of usage favors the
singular term 1t is curious how gram
mar, which is only crystallized usage,

the educational processes we have

Mr.. Hugo Munsterberg, professor of

that the primary teacher should be as
