Sudden Deaths.

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, brick-dust or sediment in
the urine, head ache, back ache, lame
back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by proper treatment of the kid

hold urine and scalding pain in passing it,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through
the day, AID to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.
Swamo-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle and book that tells all

when 10000 people registered, is
again the point nearest the lands now
to be opened Thousands of home
seekers from all over the country, but
principally from the central West, are

self the celebrations will extend over
five days and include a military tour
nament, hockey and polo matches,
garden fetes, races and many other
forms of sports. From Delhi the King
will proceed on a tiger hunt, while the
Queen will visit a number of places of
interest, including Agra. The cost of
the Governments of England and In
dia of the Durbar has been estimated
at nearly $6,OOO,OOO, but this will be
but small portion of the amount that
will be spent.
Two matters are giving the authori-
ties some anxiety. The first is the
danger of an outbreak of cholera, or
rather, the spread of that disease.
Delhi has been threatened with an
epidemic and officials have been work
ing day and night to prevent it. The
other is the protection of their ma
| jesties. There are scores of secret
societies in India which aim at driv.
! ing England out of the country. They
are very closely watched, so that any
organized attack would probably be
easily frustrated. The greater danger
arises from fanatics, with which India
swarms. Scotland Yard has already
sent out some of its best men to work
in conjunction with the Indian secret
service and uniformed police force
and spot all dangerous characters and
keep the closest guard over their ma
jesties.

For they're alike, these mules and

They're safe sometimes, but you must
