Sedentary habits cause kidney troubles.
People who are obliged to sit all day long,
stenographers, telephone and telegraph
operators, seamstresseS, milliners, shoe
makers, tailors, book keepers, clerks who
stand over a counter, engineers, tiremen,
conductors, brakemen, and others on
steam and electric railroads, are all more
or less affected with disease in the kid
neys. Long hours in sitting posture
cramps the kidneys, bowels and other
organs in the pelvic regions. You will
find that nearly everyone of these peo-
pie has constipation, and great many
more of them have kidney troubles and
don't know it. Often incipient BrightS
disease will fasten itself upon person
and the only indication of anything
wrong that the layman can discern is
slight aching or tired feeling across the
small of the back This goes unheeded
because it in itself is apparently of no
great consequence. Let the knowing
physician examine the water, when these
symptoms are manifest, and he'll find
clOuded, discolored, albuminouS fluid
that tells as plainly as picture that
inside of these delicate and important or
CANS there exists condition of disease
such as to need quick and powerful treat
ment in order to preserve them from decay
and save the life of the owner. Always be
onyour guard forthe slightest pain or sore
ness across the back. Don't let it go I'M
needed for at that very instant your kid
news may be in an awful condition. When
healthy they perform an important func-
ton, that of filtering and purifying the
liquids that pass into your system. They
do it so carefully too that not the most
infnitesimal speck of foreign or disease
breeding matter can get into the vitalS
of the body. While they are healthy,
they do more toward keeping you well
than any other organ of the whole anat-
Omy. When they are Impoverished and
weak, unable to stand as the barrier
against disease, it's like throwing down
the protecting walls and picket lines of a
great city and letting the enemy, unin-
terrupted, walk in. Think of these prec-
ious organs becoming enfeebled through
want of nourishment. Think of them
instead of being plump, vigorous, heal
thy, of being thin, lifeless, almost blood
less, eaten full of holes and secretion,
Dus that would make you hold your nose,
could you see it. Think of them in their
struggling attempt to obey nature, pour
ing this filthy and disgusting mass into
your lungs, heart and everywhere over
The body, on account of their inability to
eject it through the proper channels and
out of the system.
Does this appear to you as being health
full? Yet you, though not suspecting it,
nay be in this very position. If you
have a running sore on your arm, you
would battle it carefully with warm
water to cleanse it, then tenderly cover
it with some healing lotion. This much

of what harmonious hustling means to

Major General Otis" says the Phil

cent gathering where a young man who
had seen some little service in the
Eorto Rican skirnishes of 1898 was
fTttering the gToundlings with tales of
horror and heroism in that campaign,
Which he pictured on a scale so large
that Waterloo seemed a small affair
by comparison. The young man was
fond of an audience, and seemed to re-
sent the i'll concealed impatience mani

with: Young man, you probably have

he reached Paradise, assembled a cloud
that served within the pearly gates as
rostrum and undertook to thrill his

shades with an account of the disaster
through which he had passed. He was
interrupted by a gray bearded old, man
in the group. "A mere bucketful-a

THE FLOOD OF IMMIGRANTS.

We are not surprised that Congress
is giving serious thought to means
for restricting immigration. Last
week, al the suggestion of Representa-
tive Shattuc, the House amended the
immigration bill by inserting a provis-
ion for the collection of $1.50 from each
immigrant. But if the bill should be
passed with that amendment it is
doubtful If the movement of home
seekers from Europe to this country
would be checked perceptibly.
Since the first of the present year
more than 2O5, 900 immigrants have
landed at the port of New York alone.
1t is not known just how many have
reached our shores in that time
through other ports and by way Of
Canada. During the first six days of
May the number that arrived in New
York exceeded $4,000. And a big per-
cent. of all of them remains in that
city. 1t is not to be wondered at
therefore that the problem of munich
pal government there is so difficult of
solution. There, immigrants have
brought their foreign customs and
vices, and, as they live together in
communities and pay but little atten-
ton to the schooling of their children.
it is almost impossible to impress upon
them the necessity of obeying the laws
and conforming to the customs of this
country.
A quarter of century ago nearly all
of the immigrants were Germans,
Irish, English and Scandinavians. Now
the great majority are from Poland.
Austria Hungary and Italy, though
there is a very considerable percent
age from Greece and Portugal.
And where do these immigrants make
their homes? The records show that
about So per cent of them stay in New
York City and state, pretty nearly as
large a percentage of the remainder
goes to the mines and cities of Penn
sylvania. Many go to the nails of
New England, and New Jersey. A
very considerable number seeks the
public lands of the West and a few
come South. The number the South
gets, however, is so small as to make
no impression. For instance, of the
number arriving since Jan. l. Texas,
although about five times the size of
Pennsylvania. received only 231, while
Georgia, the empire state of the South,
got the insignificant number of 49,
Mississippi received 6 and North Car
DINA 5.
1t is safe to say that none of those
who came South. with perhaps the ex-
ception of those who settled in Texas,
intended to gain a living by farming.
1t would be a good thing for the South
if she could get that class of foreign
immigrants that has helped to make
the West what it is. There are mill
lions of acres of unoccuped lands in
the South waiting for somebody to turn
them into farms. Much OF the class
of immigrants who are now coming
from Europe is of no benefit to the
country. 1t only makes the municipal
problem more difficult.
