If YOU ARE SICK
And Need Medicine for Your
Kidneys, Liver, Bladder or
Blood, Get the Best.
Dr.. David Kennedy'S FaVOrite Remedy.

If you are suffering from kidney or
bladder disease, the doctor asks: do
you desire to urinate often, and are you
compelled to get up frequently during
the night? Does your back pain yon?
Does your urine stain linen? Is there a
scalding pain in passing it, and is it
difficult to hold the urine back? If so,
your kidneys or bladder are diseased" f"
Try putting some of your urine in a
glass tumbler, let it stand twenty-four
hours. If there is sediment, or a
cloudy. milky appearance, your kidneys
are sick
DR.. David Kennedy's Favorite Rem
edy will surely relieve and cure the
most distressing cases Of these dread
diseases, and no physician can prescribe
medicine that equals it for kidney, liv-
er, bladder and blood diseases, rhea-
matism, dyspepsia and chronic constpa-
tion.
Walter D. Miller, of Delhi N. Y,
writes:

An Anecaote of Wordsworth.

\ contributor to the London Specta
tor thus writes to that journal:
Your interesting article on "Vast
ness and Isolation recalls to my mind
Wordsworth's own Interpretation of
the lines
Those obstinate questionings
OF sense and outward things,
Fallings from us, vanishings-
as reported to me by the late Professor
Bonamy Price. One day as he was
walking with the poet in the hills he
asked him what he meant precisely by
the words "fallinGs from us, vanish
ings." Wordsworth's answer was to
this effect: Sometimes | find myself
in Il mood in which the whole material
universe seems to fall away. The sense
of outward things is lost. Nothing re-
mains but an immaterial self, detach-
ed from all physical conditions. In or
der to get back into the known world
of consciousness | have to clutch at
something-so." Here he grasped the
bar of the gate on which they were
leaning at the moment. l was much
struck by the story at the time and
made note of it.

when arrested was nearly dead from

several aid and missionary societies of

representative appeared in court when
he was arraigned for sentence.
Judge Newburger suspended SEN

necessity and want. l notified aid So

"These people are never around to

and for this reason l suspend sentence

The electric fan, which does yeo-
mans duty during the hot days Of
July and August, is found to be no less
serviceable in winter. The purpose,
to be sure. is totally different. 1t is
found that by placing a fan in a store
window, frost is prevented from cover
ing the glass, by reason of the con-
slant circulation of heated air.
Patents have been taken out on a
split-tube arrangement, which is to
be placed at the bottom of the pane
Of glass. and so connected with a fan
as to distribute current Of hot air
over the surface Of the glass. But the
