How 10 Tell II You Nave Kidney Trouble.
You can easily determine if your kid
neys are out of order by setting aside for
"a hours a bottle of the urine passed

FIFTY YEARS IN WALL STREET.
BY Henry Claws, LII D. The Irv-
Ing publishing co, OF New York.

! PIP. 1862.
Apart from tho fact that Mr.. cicwe
has laudably written the romance OF
Wall Street, its tragedies and its
comedies, In n very interesting man.
nor. and that he has In u most direct
and yot comprehensive way given ia
the world at large the result OF actual
and daily experience gained by him
in one Of the most active and inf1u-
entail business centres of America
is tho description that he has given
OF Drew Vanderbilt. Gould. Travers,
Reene, Conkling and others quite as
prominent. His Illustrations begin
with James and Elizabeth CLOVIS, his
parents, and run through the list,
mainly OF peop1e--statesmen and flnan-
ciers--until tho number mounts up to
e23.
Concerning what no has to say OF
his contemporaries, Mr.. Clews remarks
in his forcword:
II have followed tho advice which
Oliver Cromwell gave his portrait
palnter--'Paint mo as I am he said.
II you leave out scar or wrinkle
shall not give you farthing.' have
given my opinion OF men and things
also without any fruperstitfous regard
for the Droyerb. DO mortis nil nisi
bonum.'"
His Introductory chapter gives an
account OF tho part he played In mar
keting United States loans during tie
War between the States. His est
mate of his services at that period of
Ills life are by him thus referred to:
Above everything else In my bust
ness life regard with most salts

the war loans of the government of

other ways strengthening the hands

triotic American citizen"
lie dates his advent into Wall
Street from the year 1857. and con-
siders that he made his debut on the
heels of panic OF that year known
III the Western blizzard" He defines
his book purpose in regard TO Wall
Street In these words:
Il have underworld to enIighten the
public on the true status OF Wall
Street, as the very backbone Of the
countrys progress and prosperity, In
stead OF incorporating 1t as den
OF gamblers, according to the ignorant
and somewhat popular prejudice of
the majority who have attempted TO
write or speak on the subject. In
fact. tho great aim of the book Is to
place Wall Street in Its true light
before the eyes OF the world and help
to eifacc the many wrong Impressions
the community have received regard
Ing the method OF doing business in
the great financial mart to which
the settlement of accounts In all our
industry, trade and commerce natur-
ally conyerges."

Tho keynote Of a strongly written
book of fiction is found in It's two
ending paragraphs, which say:
The laughter Of Joy that fades, tho
victories that leave scars, the sorrows
that often harden, passion building the
walls of life and lust the foundation
of its structure-such is the human
lot to-day.
"But out of the unseen peers the
star. and even from the heights of
this life there are hands uplifted to
it's clear shining. hearts that answer
to It's hope
The two women of the story DANA
ris and Thyrza, separated by education
and upbrlnging. stand one TOR the spir-
itual and the other for the material
things OF life.
THE Man of Genius" stumbles on
the threshold of life, and never after
ward walks free and untrammeled.
The threads of life for him and for
others are wofully tangled and put at
ra alton in the book, the authors in
sight into the heart of humanity the
delicacy and unerring instinct of her
characterization, invest her book with
genuine power.
John Darracott and DR.. Dayman
are each wonderful creations in their
way. The clear-eyed Pronunciation and
intense womanliness of Damaris makes
a sharp foil for the childish weakness
of Thyrza, and weakness of Ambrose
Nelly, born OF the earth, vivid and
living.
In the end "Thc Man of Genius"
justiaes his right to his title by his
work. but although the fair proper
of t,a
made his fame, "its foundations had
been laid in the effort of many lives
beside that of the thinker whose
brain had conceived It,"
