'Truth above all things.’ Entered in the Post ofiice as a Newspaper. FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1899. GOOD EVENING. Possibly Dreyfus is going to have his day. He’s had his years. # Gold being found on that disputed boundary line is what makes the con— tention a gilt-edged one for Canada. From indications the Root the Presi- dent planted in the War Office is go- ing to branch out in the right kind of way. Mr. William Astoz-’sf’family tree ap- pears to have thrown him effectually in the shade so far as England is con- cerned. When a man who‘ happens to have troubles starts out with the deliberate intention of getting full, it implies he has a load on his mind. Some will say since the shoemakers and glovers are gOing to form trusts, the nation may be'further bound handy and foot in these things. Having nominated a sound money ticket Maryland’s Democratic platform properly does not touch financial ques- tions. Silence is golden. A man in Kansas comes out with the statement he has whiskers eight feet long, and here the Populist party is passing out of existence! In other words many peOple, who have no special spite against the Sal- vation Army, are satisfied with the drums they have in their ears. It would seem quite a commentary on hotel life that almost simultaneously with McKinley’s taking summer board the news came out that he had sudden- ly bought a home. Maitre Labori, counsel for Dreyfus,is somewhat nervous, it isreported, over the bad impression which may be caus- ed in the minds of those who have the adjudication of the case, by the hard and unsympathetic features of the ac- cused. These little things do, indeed, have a great effect in France, but one would suppose from the publicity given to Dreyfus’ treatment on Devil’s Island that he would have an admit- tedly good excuse for looking rather sour. James J. Russell, a New York law- yer, proposes to stop nearly all= the noise made by the elevated roads— which everybody acknowledges to be something frightful—by a different ar- rangement of the ties and stringers and‘the embedding of the rails in a compound something like that out of which printers’rollers are made. He is so sure his plan is a good one that he offers to try it on an eighth of a mile road bed as a demonstration and free of any expense to the company. This, of course, is perfectly fair, but the unfortunate company, in case the device proved successful, would un- doubtedly be compelled by public opingm to stand the expense of equip- ing the remainder of the track. All Extra Work’ C‘ounts. - _ It is always the extra work required 'to produce the best that pays on the farm. In this, however, it is only the grule which holds good everywhere else. ,The world is full of slipshod, lazy work- :ers—men who really do not want to 'do any work, but who under compul- Ision do just as little as they can and ,still pass. Thousands of farmers ob- ‘ject to certain crops, because to work :°n them is very disagreeable. What' they want is the crop that is most easily grown. Such crops are always low in. ‘price, precisely because of this habitl ’of human nature to seek the easiest jobs, forgetting that precisely because they are easy jobs they are always over- crowded with applicants. - American Cultivator. ‘ A-‘ V 'vr Spain’s Greatest Need.

It does not require an expert to de- tect the sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow cheeks. the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip-colored complexion indicates it. A physician would ask if you had rheumatism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over the hips, stomach trouble. desire to urinate often, or a burning or scalding sensation in passing it; if after ' passing it there is an unsatisfied feel- ing as if it must be at once repeated. or if the urine has a brick dust deposm or strong odor. When these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in removing the cause. Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder,infiammation, causing stop- page, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments. or may run into Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous stage of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great discovery of the eminent kidney and bladder specialist, is a positive remedy for such diseases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is so easy to get at any drug store, that no one need suifer any length of time for want of it. _ However, if you prefer to first test its wonderful merits _ ntion THE EVEN- 51NG GAZETTE and w its to Dr. Kiliner & Co., Binghamton, N. ‘Y.,’ for a'sample bottle and book telling all about it both sent absolutely free by mail. Poorly-Fattened Poultry. It is impossible to walk through the markets at any time without seeing large quantities of extremely poor tur- keys, fowl and. chickens. It is seldom; that one sees a poorly fattened hog in‘ the market. If it pays to stuff with corn a hog that won’t not his feeder five cents a pound dressed, why isn’t it good business sense to use some of that corn to fatten a bird that will bring twice as much per pound? “Till the same corn make twice as many pounds of pork as poultry? If not, it would seem“ wiser to put the corn where it will do the most good.—rRural New Yorker. Millions Given Away. It is certainly gratifying to the pub- lic to know that one concern in the land who are not afraid to be generous to the needy and suffering. The pro- prietors of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, have given away over ten million trial bottles of this great medicine; and have the satisfaction of knowing it has absolutely cured thousands of hopeless cases. Asthma. Bronchitis, Hoarse- ness, and all diseases of the throat, Chest and Lungs are surely cured by it. Call on Druggist, John A. Riggs, ll Main street, and get a free trial bottle.
