HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
Iurine and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling usually indicates
ian unhealthy condition of the kidneys.
Too frequent desire to urinate, scanty
supply, pain or dull ache in the back,
should also convince you that the kid
lneys or bladder are out of order.
What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed that DIR. Kilmers
Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder remedy, fulfills almost
every wish in relieving pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every
part of the urinary passage. 1t corrects
inability to- hold urine. and scalding
pain in passing it, or bad effects follow
ing the use of liquor, wine or beer and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
being compelled to get up many times
during the night to urinate.
The mild, pleasant and extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
results in the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine, you should have
the best. Sold by druggists in fifty-cent
and one-dollar sizes.
You may have sample bottle of
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
and q book that tells all about it, both
sent absolutely free by mail. Address

When writing be sure to mention that
you read this generous offer in the
Washington Weekly National Tribune.

The strides taken by the students missionary movement, as indicated in the annual report, must be gratifying to all progressive interests as well as those which are strictly religious. for il is apparent that these crusading volun- teers are carrying to all the world a message of civilization. Moral awak- ening and mental enlightenment are twin sisters, and in their spread of the gospel to the dark places of the earth the American emissaries are allies o1 the greatest of uplifting forces.
 The programme indicated for the coming year shows the vast scope of the movement, covering, as it does such countries as Turkey, Russia, Japan. India, Africa, and the turbulent sections of Latin America, where the educating force of the Christian stu dents is bound to be an influence for all right living and good government Even the worldly affairs of the work aday life are advanced by this move menr. for q. is well known that trade follows the missionary, so that fer practical as well as for ethical reasons the students will doubtless find even larger support in the future.-Omaha
