The Cause of Many
Sudden Deaths.

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 arrangement of the kidneys and
cure is obtained quickest by a 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 go 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 i'll ffty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, DR.. Kill
mer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. ", on every
bottle.

Just SO much waste"

The recent address of President Hyde
of Bowdoin College, who has been
studying the race problem I'm the South
at close quarters, has attracted wide
attention and has won most favorable
criticism for this eminent educator from
the leading papers of the country.
President Hyde combines high intelli-
gence with high courage, and his views
are his own. His arraignment of the
South for Withholding the suffrage
from intelligent and responsible
negroes will not be any more popular
in that section than his declaration
that there should be race segregation
in school. church and society will be
with some people in the North. but it
is not applause which President Hyde
seeks. He aims only at the truth and
the remedy for existing evils and dam
gers. and with the possible exception
of President Elliot of Harvard his
views carry more weight and command
u wider audience than those of any
other educator in the country.

Hamilton and Burr.

On July II there will be observed the
centennial of the duel between Hamil-
ton and Burr, the most famous duel in
American history, and a permanent
memorial will be erected to mark the
spot where it took place. The story of
these two great men is one of the most
interesting chapters in the early his
tory Of our country. Hamiltons place
in the history of the United States is
secure. made more SO, doubtless, by the
manner of his death while he was in
the full flush of manhood and at the
height of power and popularity. But
as years have come and gone, the many
other parts which Burr played in the
drama of his times are being forgotten.
and he is now known chiefly as the
man who killed Hamilton. Within the
past few years there has been an at
tempt made to vindicate Burr and wipe
out the stain upon his name, ana to this
end Il national association was formed,
and books upon the subject were writ
ten. but Of late the attempt seems to
have been given up. Evidently the
public refused to take any great inter-
est in the matter.
Burr Was undoubtedly n remarkable
man, and few men i'm American history
have had such varied and romantic ca
recrs. Perhaps he is misjudged, and it
may be that history does him an in
justice in some respects; but. however
that may be, his memory is losing what
little hold it has had upon the public
and his fame in the future is likely 20
depend for its very existence upon the
fame of the man he killed. 1t is a Gu
rious and pathetic settlement by time
of the bitter conflict between these two
men. who were once SO great and so
famous but the settlements effected by
time are often curious and not often
unjust.

Wall street has never regarded as ex-

many men who give advice he practices
what he breaches. THE boy who

Seven dollars is plenty to pay for the
