What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver. bladder and every part
OF the urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use OF LIQUOR,
wine or beer. and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity Of being compelled to 20 often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect Of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its won
derful cures Of the most distressing cases.
If you need medicine you should have the

orr. Little Rrnf'' from the West Tes
Mach for Four scphe-
mores.

A local professional man recalled the
other day hazing incident Of his
youth. II happened ct the old college
At Hudson in the early '7os. The pros
pective victim was young fellow from
somewhere in the west little runt Of
4 chap with Q heavy shock of red hair,
saws the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
He had been told he would be hazed'
but he only shook his head IN an exas-
perating way. He went 90 far one DAY
a. TO say he wouldn't be hazed under
any circumstances, and when he was
pressed for o reason he simply said;
"Because / know how to take care Of
myself"
OF course that sort Of talk made US
ali the more determined to put him
through the handsomest course OF
sprouts that any presumptuous fresh
man had yet received IN the old alma
mater
One niQht six Of the huskiest sopho-
mores in the class went up to the fresh
mans room. We had nice coil OF rope
and a square Of sticking plaster for
his mouth and sundry other objects OF
entertainment were awaiting the VIC
tim In convenient place.
The little fellow was In his room
alone when we filed in.
He looked up without tremor.
"Hullo," he said.
"Hullo," we answered.
as it peace or warp says the runt,
a. cool as q cucumber.
"Itrl be war fast enough II you don't
take 1t peaceably," said our ringleader'
as he loosened up the rope.
II Just wanted to know" drawled the
runt.
And then all of a sudden his face
flushed up, and quicker than fash he
whipped out big revolver and had US
covered.
"skipl" he snarled.
"I'ye never seen such big revolver
since. IT seemed to point at every man
IN the room. And the runt's hand was
a. steady az the eternal hills. I'd bet
every man in that room wished himself
on the outside just as heartily as
did.
"skip," said the runt again.
Well, we tried to exit with dignity,
| but know that the spokesman ano
the next largest soph got badly stalled
| in the doorway.
And, say, we went away with such
| celerity that we actually left the ropt
behind in the freshman's room.
Perhaps II IL unnecessary to AGA tha'
we didn't think II worth while to g
back after II.

GREAT CENTER OF TRADE.
Duenos Ayres, Argentine, ID the CHI
eago Of the South Ameri-
can Continent.

The greatest city on the South
American continent is Buenos Ayres.
The population is believed to exceed
10000. It was officially estimated to
be over 795,00O at the close Of 1899
and the increase is calculated to be
close to 10000 year. says the Chicago
Unronrie. therefore, rev I ORR, CHI
cago and Philadelphia are the only
cities in the United States which sur
pass the Argentine metropolis In the
number Of inhabitants. There are
only about ten cities inhabited by
white men in all the world which are
bigger.
Size Is not the only notable form Of
development. The revenue Of the city
is about 100000 year in gold. Its
streets and parks are lighted by more
than $4,000 gas jets, over 5000 lamps
and about 1850 arc lights, the latter
Of 1000 to 2,oo0-candle power apiece.
There are Is theaters or similar places
of public amusement and they have
about 100000 spectators every year.
The street railways carry 116,0O0,0oo
passengers annually which means
some $5,000,000 income.
It il one of the most cosmopolitan
of all the earth's centers. Besides the
underlying and still dominant Spanish
element which used to have the Ar
gentine in exclusive possession, there
is large Italian population, fast In
creasing, and the Germans, English,
French, Irish, Welsh. Portuguese,
Chilians, Poles, Russians, Swiss and
other nationalities are well represent
ed in the Argentine Republic, and, to
some extent. in its capital. All this
is interesting, but most important
fact Is yet to be stated. There II .
cleanliness movement on in Buenos
Ayres AMI II is said to be great sue

are men Of intelligence, who know
something Of the Importance Of sani-
tary improvements, and are said 70
be alive to their duties. One Of them
recently announced the determination
Of himself and his lieutenants, in spite
Of many obstacles, to make Buenoa
Ayres the clsanest city in the world.
