break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from 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.. Killner's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain i'll 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.
Swa1np-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in ffty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis

WAS NOT DAVIDSON.
Man Who Died on the Omaha Train
Not VIM. Davidson.

This morning the Twin City papers
contained an account of the death of
man who expired on the Omaha
train just as it was leaving the Union
depot in st. Paul.
The description of the man was
very similar to that of William David
son, who disappeared from this city
SO mysteriously Monday night and for
time many thought that it was he.
The man, according to the press dis
patches, was over seventy years of
age and had ticket to Ellsworth.
Wisconsin. He was unknown to any
one on the train. but papers on his
person gave his name as Davidson.
The similarity in description gave
rise to the belief that it was William
Davidson, and as his first name was
not given, 1T looked probable.
John McPhee at once telegraphed tn
A. d. Stephens, who is in st. Paul,
asking him to look into the matter,
and late this afternoon he received
a reply saying that the man was John
Davidson of Ellsworth and not Mr.
McPhee's father-in-law.
1t is generally believed now that
Mr. Davidson committed suicide nv
drowning himself in the river and the
friends and relatives are inclined to
accept that theory of his disappear
ance.-Crookston Journal.

Elephant Electric Motors.

A correspondent in India has sent
Engineering copy of the following in
quiry that has been received from a
native public works department:
eve have number of elephants in the
state. propose to utilize them in
working dynamos for six hours every
day and generating electricity, to store
it in batteries and use it at night for
lighting streets. l shall feel Obliged
If you will please give me the informa-
ton required in the statement accom-
panying: First, how many electrical
units will an elephant of ordinary
strength, working six hours produce;
second, cost Of dynamos required;
third, cost of gear required to work 1t
by elephants; fourth, cost of battery
to store the electricity"
The mechanical equivalent of the
power of an elephant is probably
known in India, but we have not been
able to find it in textbooks published
here. Probably, as compared with
that of horse, it varies as their re-
spective weights. A central station
containing a score of elephants walk
ing round like mill horses, or climbing
ramps that slipped away under their
feet would be rather painful specta-
Gle. A part from this, however, we
see no way in which the enterprisiag
department in question could utilize
the source of power at their disposal.
We do not suppose elephants could be
trained to raise water in their trunks
and squirt it on a Pelton wheel; and
as we have no means of calculating the
force of jet Of this kind we are not
able to recommend this means.

time and thought into collars and cuffs
and outside Jokes and bands, as we'll
as pretty girdles and sashes.
The newest ginghanns are charming,
the imported ones as soft as silk, and
in ravishing colors. The daintiest
pinlss and blues and greens and sort
of delicate buff, not yellow or tan but
a cool and lovely shade. These cling
hams have wonderful firmness and
| great wearing qualities.
OF the girdles and sasiles shown 70
give the dressy touch to the plain
gown one in black velvet is Very pref
ty and durable. For these black vel
vet ribbon Is used on a silk foundation
or for very dressy occasions the sash
is made of piece velvet, cut wider at
the bottom than at the top and faced
to match the dress. A pretty way to
finish a light foulard girdle is to make
1t of the silk used for the dress, out
lining with velvet baby-ribbon and
lacing at the back over black velvet
buttons with loops of the ribbon in
clusters of from four to twelve inches
hanging from the belt. This is pEetty,
of course, only for misses and the de-
butante.
Among the elaborate cloth gowns
shown for spring there are some beau
ties in browns and grnys for the ma
irons, and some more youthful crea-
lions in blues and green's.
One brown costume had Paris writ
ten in every line. but it was worn with
the grace of the American. 1t was rus
set broadcloth, close at the hips, far
ing at the feet, and untrimed. A half
long jacket or coat of broadcloth silk
with lunches of flowers in russell
brown shades. This coat hung straight
In front showing vest of russell COL
ored velvet over which fell jabot Of
cream lace caught at the throat by a
tiny bow Of the velvet. Over the
shoulders was prettily fitted cape If
the broadcloth. The hat with this cos
tune was of brown velvet and shades
of old rose.
A pretty spring costume for a de-
butante was in dark but bright green,
with hat to match trimmed with
white roses and green leaves. This
could be successfully worn by rosy
brunette. There is an odd dull shade
of light blue becoming to fair and
dark alike, though perhaps more es-
pecially belonging to the fair. This
makes an attractive street costume and
permits touch of deep red in the hat
at the back against the hair either
velvet knot or dark red rose or roses.
Red promises to be in considerable
favor this season. Rich crimson is
very popular. There is dull brick
red, also, called the Venetian red,
which is already much in favor.
These shades, however, are suitable
only for early spring wear, while there
is some snap left in the air, and the
complexion responds. For summer
days it will be better to plan for the
cooler creams and whites and greens
which are found in the ever-popular
roses and wreaths of foliage, as we'll
as the tulles and gauzes so charming
with the Leghorns and white chip hats
which are now being imported to a
greater extent than ever before.

Estelle's Fashion Letter.

NEW 1Ork, Marcn "a world
famed costumer once said: "It is not
always the woman who has the most
extensive wardrobe who ix the best
dressed, but rather she who knows
best how to wear to advantage what
she has,
Yet, in spite of the above sensible
conclusion, a woman at all in the
world must have certain number of
gowns in her wardrobe, and if social
demands are great some of these must
be duplicated ard held in reserve. But,
after all, a few gowns carefully chosen
we'll cared for, and worn with judg-
ment will go long way in the hands

these a suitable evening wrap and sew

are to make the most of this rather

eyes open and not let the Dame get

out by the lady are these in regard to
wash dresses, a subject upon which the
feminine mind is more and more CEN

plans must be made for the still longer
summer season.
