SATURDAY. MAY 13,1899. GOOD “EVENING. It was a mean bachelor who defined marriage as a man’s desire to pay a woman’s bills. It may be the coat that makes the man, but it is undoubtedly the hat that ‘ makes the woman. George Dewey will do well to have the buttons on his clothing sewed on tight before starting, Bénman'la, Pray} For Ruin. BUCHABEST, Roumania, May 13.— On account of .the long continued drought prayers for rainwere said in every town and’village in Roumania. yesterday. At Braila, .on the lower Dan- ube, the chief port of the country, all business was suspended, and a proces— sion of thousands marched to the fields of dying wheat, where supplications were offered for. three hours, ladies, peasants and gypsies kneeling and praying for relief from the merciless heat of the sun. ‘ . Baltimore Wants Dewey. ' BALTIMORE, May 13.——-Baltimore has given Admiral Dewey an official invita- tion to be the guest of the city on his return. Should_Admiral‘ Dewey accept the invitation, an effort will be made to have Admiral McNair, now on duty at Annapolis, act as a member of the re- ception committee. Russia’s War on the Jews. . ST. PETERSBURG, May 13.‘—The government has forbidden Jews to re- side in this city. Several French Jews are among those who will be compelled to leave. agg—za 3:5 /\.\=. .....’“s\\1 ~/.~ - 1‘12." ' A New Haven man is that contrary. ' . that when spring comes he pretends he ; feels like working. As with other cases of slight indispe- sition many think the best cure for spring fever Is to do nothing for it. A man never fully realizes the joys of home until he sits at his own .table and criticizes his wife’s cooking. The refusal of the Grand Jury to in- dict Mr. Molineux indicates the exist- ence of a pull of abnormal dimensions. Most people, if somebody made a mo- tion to have a dinner at $100 a plate, would move that it be laid on the table. The Keely motor has been‘carted off to the junk shop and the confidence of the victims no longer has a depOsitory. For that matter the rejoicing when Dewey got home on the Spaniards won’t be in the same class with what goes on when he gets home here. During the settlement ofa doctor’s bill at Okolona, Miss, four men were killed. The Mississippi running ac- count is a dangerous institution. The suburbanite who all winter wrestled with snowy and muddy roads now beams upon his city neighbor and dilates upon the joys of country life. Persons always speak the truth when theygsay that they haven’t slept a wink. Of course they haven’t; it would be just as impossible for them to sleep a wink as to sleep a cough or a. sneeze. ’ Study, it is alleged, tends to lessen personal beauty. A case in point is the man who, after fooling with a mule, was not-so good looking, but knew a great deal more. A New York farmer who placed too much confidence in a Dakota divorce is now in jail on a charge of bigamy. In case the courts decide to keep‘him there New York society will-be all torn up. In Chicago schools they have begun spelling “program;” “thorough,” to the front as an advocate of reform, H programme,” “them,” etc. In coming that rapid town naturally uses a short cut. The other day a! Bridgeport woman wrote another, “Comeup to the house; When the friend arrived, all primed for a I have something to talk over.” good dish of gossip, she was shown a telephone. You will p10bably see the joke, though she didn t. _—‘—~—‘O-O>-—~\.———— Parsnip Bomplexinn. It does not require an expert to de- tect the suflerer from kidney trouble. The hollow cheeks. the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy c1rcles 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 re eated, or if the urine has a bi ick dust eposit or strong odor. When these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in 1emoving the cause. Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder,infiammation, causing stop- page, and' sometimes requiring the 111 awing of the urine with instruments. or may run into Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous stage of kidney trouble. Dr. KilmeI’ 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 suffer any length of time for want of it.
