ROBERT 15.. PORTER.
m. Friends Think He \Vonld Make

an Ideal and Useful Secre-
tary for the Colonies.

 

Robert P. Porter, whose name has
been associated with the proposed port-
folio of secretaryjor the colonies, is re-
garded as - an excellent, man for the
place, owing to his wide familiarity
with the trade and industry of the
world at large, and particularly with
the industrial conditions of the Antilles-
and the Orient, and in which he spent
much time. Mr. Porter, although born
in England, has been an American since
he was 15. He began his career as a
newspaper man in Chicago in 1872, and
while engaged in journalistic work he
spent his leisure in the study of tariffs
and the science of statistics. Later
he visited the industrial centers of Eu-

“ estate being high does not interfere ~

with air speculators 'when they want
anything. ‘

While spine and neck are connected
anybody almost would rather see rub-
ber in'the neck than in a man’s back-

 

bone.

Now that golf is beginning to be
fatal they are talking of reviving cro-
quet. No company will refuse to in-
sure a man for playing that.

President Kruger may admit Africa
is the Dark Continent, but he’s not dis-
posed to let it grow any darker by al-
lowing the Boer Republic to be thrown
in the shade.

It may be it’s going to be uphill work

or the automobile in plaCes, but it ap-
pears to be a wonderful climber.

A big yarn trust in its connection
with woolen underclothing may one of
these days come close to all of us.

 

Perhaps no additional legislation
may be needed to' suppress the toy
pistol; the statutes against attempting

suicide might cover it.

Brooklyn may be the City of Churches
but the flying missiles in that railroad
trouble is a striking commentary on it.

 

As a not too necessary remark “rub-
ber” in its colloquial. meaning could

QUEER ANCIENT TIMEPIEC‘E.

When the Alarm of This Clock I:
Sounded lt Floods the Room
with Light.

 

In the town of Schramberg, in the
black forest district of Wurtemberg,
Germany, where one of the chief in-
dustries is that of clock-making, there
has recently been established an inter-
esting museum of timepieces, says the
London Mail. The collection displays
the gradual development in the making
of clocks for many centuriés. Among
the curiosities are many of great his-
torical value. There is an alarm clock
constructed in the year 1680 for the use
of travelers. In form it resembles a
lantern, and the interior is designed to
hold a lighted candle. The candle is
slowly pushed upward by a spring,
which also controls the mechanism of
the clock. A little pair of shears clips
the wick of the candle automatically
|every minute to regulate its light. The
lantern- is inclosed with movable sides,
so that the sleeper is not at first dis-
turbed by the presence of light. The
Zalarm is set by inserting a. peg in the
lsecond dial plate. When the required
ihour arrives the alarm is sounded, and
at the same time the movable sides fall,
flooding the room with light.

What Shall We Do.

A serious and dangerous disease pre-
vails in this country, dangerous be-
cause so deceptive. It comes on so
slowly yet surely that it is often firmly
seated before we are aware of it.

The name of this disease which may

_ be divided into three distinct stages is,

I First, Kidney trouble, indicated by

‘ pain in the back, rheumatism, lumba-
go, frequent desire to urinate. often

" with a burning sensation. the flow of
urine being copious or scant with

- strong odor. .

l. , It allowed to advance, this reaches
the Second stage, or Bladder trouble,
with heavy pain in the abdomen low
down between the navel and the water
passage, increasing desire to urinate,

with scalding sensation in passing,

3 small quantities being passed with dif-

ficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it

with instruments. If uric acid or gravel
has formed, it will prove dangerous if
neglected.
The third stage is Bright’s Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that

Dr. Ki‘lmer the great kidney and blad-

l der specialist, has discovered a Remedy

' famous for its marvelous cures of the
most distressing cases and known as
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Boot.

It is sold by all druggists.

As a proof of the wonderful virtues of
this great discovery, Swamp-Root, a
sample bottle and book of va uable in-
formation will be sent absolutely free
by mail on application to Dr. Kilmer
& Co, Binghampton, N. Y. When
writing kindly mention that you read

for the Colonies.)

rope and wrote learngd articles on for-
eign trade and manufactures for the
New York Tribune. These articles were
afterward published in book form. Mr.
Porter was a member of the United
States tariff commission appointed in
188:3 by President Arthur. President
Hayes appointed him to an important
position in the tenth census bureau,
and President Harrison made him su-
perintendent of the eleventh census.
l-lis investigations in the field of Jap-
anese industry were most fruitful, and
his articles on that subject were pub-
lished in the Times—Herald. His pub-
lished works are “Bread 'V‘Vinners
Abroad,” “The West in 1880,” “Free
Trade Folly,” and the official biography
of President McKinley. He is 47 years
old.

A MAD MONARCH’S'TREA'K.‘
The King of Bavaria Found Pleasure

in Frightening Horses
to Death.

the mad king of Bavaria, was at its
worst, lie-gave orders that 30 of his
finest horses should be put in the best

counmon possible 101‘: a r313, writes
I‘m-of. J. II. Core in Ladies’ ome Jour-

nal. When the report came that no
further improvmzzcnts could be made,
he‘ had them brought into an open field
where every conceivable form of noise-
making device had been stationed. The.
horses were tied to posts, and the king,r
from an elevated stand gave the signal
ihat started the. flare of trumpets, the
booming of cannon, the firing” of bombs
and other outlandish noises. The horses
reared, plunged, struggled to get free,
and finally breaking loose started in
the wildest gullops from this begllam.
But toward whatever corner of the
field they fled they were stopped by
noises just as terrifying, and sent to
another quarter to be frightened again
nnd’again. When the horses became too
tired to run well the king found the
spectacle. uninteresting and ordered the
orgy to cease. lly this cruel freak the
royal stables lost a number of their
most valuable animals.

Remarkable Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield,Ill.,
makes the statement, that she caught
cold, which settled on her lungs; she
was treated for a month by her fam-
ily physician, but grew worse. He
told her she was a hopeless victim of
consumption and that no medicine
could cure her. Her druggist suggest-
ed Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con-
sumption; she bought a bottle and to
her delight found herself benefitted
from first dose. She continued its use
and after taking six bottles, found her-
self somewhat welY: now does her own
housework, and is as well as she ever
was. Free trial bottles of this Great
Discovery at John A. Riggs’ drug
store, 11 Main street. Only 500 and
$1.00; every bottle guaranteed.
