ing Health Statistics.

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition Of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases Of
scr;o.. ;H"sss ,uakvs = chemical analysis
Of the patients urine. lie knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly the other organs cannot be
brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health
statistics, Bright's disease. which is really
an advanced form Of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in
1909 in the State Of New York alone.
Therefore, it behooves us to pay more
attention to the health Of these most
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as a kidney rem.
edy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
greatkidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy.
The mild and healing influence Of this
preparation is soon realized. 1t stands

REPUBLICANS NOW
OFFER TO DECKER
W|TH|NSURGENTS

Especial From a STAFF Correspondent II The
Evening wotld.D
ALBANY, n. Y, Feb. III was
learned to-day that emissaries from the
Republican side OF the Legislature at.
tended yesterday the meeting Of the
Democratic insurgents and opened ne
sotiations looking toward the forma-
lion of a combination to defeat
Sheehan.
The Republican proposal was for a
permanent working agreement which,.
with the aid of the Insurgents. would
give them the control of the Legis-
iature. The representatives of the Re-
publican side OF the House asked the
Insurgents II they would vote for some
high-class Republican. The reply was
that they would not. The second prop
osition was the naming OF an inde-
pendent Democrat by the Republicans.
This proposition met with favor.
Hearing OF this movement Charles +.
Murphy has sent a request to the In
surgents that they refrain from any
alliance with the Republicans. He
based this request on the ground OF the
general party good. The reply the In
surgents tent to Murphy was that II
the deadlock continued and Mr.. Muir
ply persisted In clinging TO Sheehan
they did not think the responsibility for
evil TO the party could be shifted TO
their shoulders.
Senator Bracket. the Republican
leader. said: 1T Is not yet time for
such a movement"
In the absence of Senator Bracket
yesterday senator Emerson and others
wlso favored a coalition with the in
surgents were busy.
Senator Bracket believes that II the
regulars hold out long enough for Shee-
han the insurgents in the end will be
willing to accept u Republican to beat
him. The Legislature to-day cast the
thirteenth joint ballot without any ma
terial change in the vote, except that
the insurgents show a drift toward
John II. Herman. Shepard IL now only
one vote ahead OF Herman.
Thomas VI. Osborne declared that Ed
ward NJ. Shepard would stick In the
ace until the end.
