Wine' will do this and so marked is its
action on the kidneys that you can act
ually feel it working on them within a
few minutes after taking dose.
1t gives them just the kind Of bath
they need and it heals up the sore. 1t
takes away the smarting, burning, pain
full, dragged-down, all-gone sensations, as
if by magic. 1t takes sediments of all
kinds out of the little hooks and corners
where they lodge and cause brick dust,
gravel, stone in bladder, Inflammation,
etc. If you have any of these troubles,
or even if You have any of the slightest
symptoms of kidney disease, you ought
to protect yourself. 1t is easier to pre-
vent than to cure any disease. A bottle
of Blood Wine," costing fifty cents, will
often stave off a serious trouble, and spare
the patients life, to say nothing Of saving
great expense and long suffering.

Sedentary habits cause kidney troubles.
People who are obliged to sit all day long,
;tenographers. telephone and telegraph
operators, seamstresses, millinerS, shoe
makers, tailors, book keepers, clerks who
'tand over counter, engineers, firemen,
conductors, brakemen, and others on
steam and electric railroads, are all more
)r less affected with disease in the kid
leys. Long hours in sitting posture
cramps the kidneys, bowels and other
organs in the pelvic regions. You will
ind that nearly everyone of these peo-
pie has constipation. and a great many
more of them have kidney troubles and
lon't know it. Often incipient Bright's
disease will faSten itself upon a 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, discololed, aibuminous fluid
that tells as plainly as a picture that
inside of these delicate and important or

A Legal Days Work.

An important decision with re3S.l to
the law declaring ten hours of LABOR to
be legal days work, has been handed
down from the Maine law court. The
rescrlpt, which was drawn by Justice
Emery, was in Franklin county case,
that of p E. Fitzgerald vs. the Interna-
tional Paper Co. Judgment is rendered
for the defence. The rescript is as fol
lows:
Under R. S. CHI. 81 sec. Is declaring
ten hours of actual labor to be "a legal
days work, unless the contract stipu-
lates tor a longer time the stipulation
need not be expressed, nor made before
the work, is begun 1t is enough if it
appears from the circumstances and
the conduct of the parties that they
understood that more then ten hours of
labor was to be performed each day for
the agreed wages per day.
Where 4 laborer hires to work as one
of the crew of a pulp mill which to his
knC Wedge is run through the n hours,
with one day crew and one night crew.
alternating each week. and he works in
such crew more than ten hours each
day. and receives weekly his per diem
pay as agreed without claiming more,
it can be reasonably inferred that he
agreed to work more than ten hours a
day, and he cannot afterwards recover
pay for the extra hours.
Judgment for defendant.

the law of the right OF eminent domain.
The question is a new one i'll this State
and the public will look with interest
for its publication. The opinion is said

last June for the murder of his wife at

would be laid to him. 1t undoubtedly
will be, and it is to be presumed that

at New London for the orient trade of
the Great Northern Steamship Com
pany, are to be equipped with what is
claimed to be the largest lot Of electri-
cal machinery ever installed for marine
purposes in this or any other country.
The contract SO far awarded calls for
nearly $4,000 worth of apparatus for
the electric lighting and ventilating of
the two vessels. The contracts call for
six marine generating sets, consisting
of compound engines of $50 horse
power each, to be directly connected to
75-kilowatt generators; also four 90
horse power engines to operate blowers
for each ship.

"Wards for nervous diseases in the

ing the fact that apparently unavoda-
BILE street noises are responsible for 1t.

NV Lady's Tresses.

The prettiest decoration for the hair
at the present time seems to be pearls,
strings of which are twisted neatly
and artistically amid its coils. The
effect is particularly pleasing when
the wearer has dark hair and is pos
sessed of a good complexion, says
Home Notes.
Though this form of decoration for
evening dress is spoken of as novelty,
it is in reality a very old fashion, as
may be easily proved by glance at
book of beauty or an inspection Of the
portraits of our ancestresses.
BY the bye, the pearls need not be
real. Indeed, it would be far better
that they should not be so, as contact
with the hair would be likely to destroy
their beauty.

Chiffon parnsOls.

The ordinary chiffon parasols are
flounced in every conceivable pattern.
Often all founces except the outer one
are applied in points or scallops, the
bizarre effect being further enhanced
by the application of black edgings OF
lace or chiffon ruchings. Some of the
shades are founced and then decorated
with appliqued centerpieces in lace or
colors. The lace cover over colors Is
popular with those who can afford 1t.
Provided the lace is of good quality 1t
looks quite we'll, but the ordinary cheap
limitations are an abomination. All
over embroideries applied on chiffon
produce handsome effects, says the
Springfield Union. A sunshade of chif'
fon sprayed with embroidered peoples
was a handsome affair. Scarlet and
gold is a fashionable combination fol
certain dashing types, but its general
popularity is waning. Red has toe
great a suggestion Of high temperature
to be quite suitable for summer.

Mark Twain is not the only man Of
letters who has bested the hack driver.
Sir Walter Besant is said to have once
settled a disputed cab fare in novel
manner. He drove from Piccadilly TO
some place In the suburbs outside the
radius. On getting down he rendered
to the driver IS. Cd, which was little
over the proper fare. The man, how
ever, wanted 5 shillings. Besantrefused.
I'D like to fight you for it," said the
driver.
"The very thing" said Besant, who
had never in his life put on boxing
glove and was almost as ignorant as
Pickwick even of the fighting attitude.

the fight in the back garden. My broth

he did not quite care about 1t, after all.
