tack the vital organs, causing catarrh OF
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a arrangement of the kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking DR.. Kilmers Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it., and over
comes that unpleasant necessity OF being
compelled to 60 often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized;
1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-doilar size bottles. You may have
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about 1t,
both sent free by mail. Address, DR.. Kill
mer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When

offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, and the

POET STATIONS SORROW.

GeOrgfa. Writers Desk Condemned as
 a Menace by Fire Inspectors.
 City fire inspectors in Atlanta have declared the desk of Frank l.. Stanton, Georgia's poetic son of "Just From Georgia" fame, menace to the .busi- ness section of the city With sorrow ing eyes Stanton recently had his desk overturned and the letters and papers which covered 1t to a depth of more than yard carted away.
 True to the old newspaper legend, he avoided bad luck in sorting his papers, and they all went together. The un- answered letters of autograph hunters formed part of the rubbish which the fire officials feared would start d con- hagration in the Constitution building
 Stanton will not say how many years these papers have been accommodating Once one was laid on the desk, it's fate was sealed, as it was soon covered by another. which fared no better. All kinds of things, from morocco bound books to rats nests, were found in the drawers of the desk, and all found com mon refuge in the junk paper yards.
 Stanton will at once begin a new col lection, to which autograph and photo graph iends the country over likely will be tue chief contributors

NEW SOCIETIES IN LONDON

One Flights Demon Solemnfty, the Other Introduces Lady Bachelors.
 Two remarkable societies have been formed in London, says a cable dis patch to the New York World.
 One. which calls itself .'the Dancers 7 is intended to fight the high and pow erful devil solemnity.'' The members meet weekly, dressed in classic cos tunes, and dance rollicking measures of all times, the music and the dances being unearthed from the British mu- scum.
 The principal promoters of this fel- lowship are artistic people Up to now the dancers have provided more fun for outsiders than for themselves. The prime mover is Miss Florence Farr, a clever actress, who formerly deepened London's natural gloom by playing leading parts in Ibsen plays.
 The other society's object is to abol- ish the term "spinster.'' Spinster, it thinks, somehow implies seraggy an- tiquity. and today's unmarried women want to be known as "lady bachelors 7 It is agitating for removing the word "spinster' from the dictionaries and substituting lady bachelor in all Ie- gal documents.

Colonel Dick Plunkett, whose admin istering of the duties of marshal in Creede, Colo. and other western min ing camps is a matter of record, is widely known for his assiduous dis tribution of the shamrock among well known men, whose acknowledgements he treasures. He arrived at New York few days ago from Alaska, says the New York Tribune.

Fence sixty-three Miles Lonx.


 One of the longest fences in the northwest is being constructed. running entirely around the Lower Brule h. dian reservation. on the Missouri river, in the central portion of South Dakota, says the Kansas City Journal. This remarkable fence will be sixty-three miles in length. It is composed of four wires placed on posts set a rod apart, cedar and ash posts alternating. Tn its construction 25o miles of wire will be used, or 76.000 pounds. To erect the fence required an aggregate of 19.oo0 posts. Tn this long fence there will be only three gateways, which will be guarded when the fence is completed. The fence is being constructed by the Indians themselves under the direction of the agency authorities. It is under stood that next spring the government will issue stock cattle to the Indians, to. be grazed inside this huge inclosure, the ppxpose of the government being 10 e age the Indians in stock rais ing so they can ultimately support

upon the sensibilities of the American people in respect to the Monroe doc Urine, and we should no doubt have found ourselves viewing France with annoying apprehension. The French warships might easily have been fol- lowed by those of England and Hol- land, and Panama, like the Balkan states, might well have been expected to furnish the spark to set half the world in flames
 This situation which have describ- ed, fraught with real and momentous dangers, furnished one of the very se- rious possibilities which the admins tration had to reckon with ill dealing with the revolution in Panama. When you keenly grasp the full sense of i'm minent danger of foreign complications which confronted the president and the plainly evident truth that no justice, generosity, fair dealing or business like consideration could be obtained from Colombia; when you consider further our obligations under the treaty of 1846 and the opportunity afforded to put an end to the long series of san- guinary and enfeebling revolutions which have wasted the resources and arrested the progress of the isthmus; when you recall Colombia's dog in the manager attitude and the salient. dan- gerous, pressing exigencies of the sit uatton which confronted this govern ment upon the night of Nov. 3 think you may we'll be glad that there was in Washington upon this truly Hateful occasion a man who possessed the in. sight, the knowledge, the spirit and the courage to seize the opportunity to strike a blow the results of which can be fraught only with peace and good to the whole world.
 "One of the most significant and val uable results of our action in respect to Panama will be the wholesome ob- ject lesson and the enduring moral eff feet which our supremacy on the isth- mus will bring to the eyes of certain people who are in sore need of instruc- ton in the practice of peaceful pur- suits and orderly administration. 1t also would be not without value for these people clearly to understand in dealing with the United States that there is limit to the patience and the forbearance of this government.
 In this sense at least we hope to be paramount throughout the new world. We want the American republics to know that honest toll is dignified and ennobling; we want them to entertain a spirit of toleration in all matters; we want the ideas of civil and religious liberty and free education to have wide scope and abundant appreciation, and we desire all of our Latin-American friends heartily to join us in urging, supporting and vitalizing the principle of international arbitration.
 f'In these peaceful ways it is the de- sire of this government to Americanize the new world and perhaps the old, but not by the power of the almighty dol lar, not by the urgency of trade de- mands, not by any manifestation or display of force, but rather by the more potent and enduring means of the dis semination of those lofty, civilizing agencies, those great principles, those fine ideals, those substantial virtues, upon which our country was founded and upon which it has continuously thrived and had it's well being''
