In other lands, also, tho feeling prevails that Germany is turning to an aggressive policy, and if the rector's speech is a truthful indication that the people of Germany are prepared to support the ambitious projects of their Emperor, that country is likely to make a good deal of trouble for the rest of the world in tho near future.

Charles Beatty, who was on TuetdRy sentenced by .Indue Craig to 16 months In the Eastern penitentiary for passing a forged draft on the Hide and Leather1 bank, ot New York, at the East Stroudsburs; National bank, was one ! of the best known men In the middle j west, lie Is a native of Ohio, and graduated from the University of I Michigan with the degree of A. M. For Ave years he was principal of the high school at Coldwater, Mich., resigning to take up the practice of law. He gave up this in 1377 to become principal of the Saginaw schools, which position he held until 1884. In the meantime he had become active in politics, and next served as assistant prosecuting attor ney of Saginaw county for four years, being a member of the school board and council of that city at the same time. In 1801 he moved to Chicago and be came identified with the American Home Colonisation company, and was admitted to the bar ot that olty. On March 27, 186, he was admitted to practice m the United States supreme court. While In Michigan neatly be: came supreme secretary of the A. P. A.

People who fail to look after their health are like the carpenter who neglects to sharpen his tools. People are not apt to get anxious about their heallh soon enough. If you are not quite well" or "half sick" have you ever thought that your kidneys may be the cause of .your sickness ? It is easy to tell by setting aside your urine for twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trcublc. Too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull ache in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder arc out of order. There is satisfaction in knowing that the great remedy Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, ful fills cvciy wish in reli"ving weak or diseased kidneys and all forms of bladder and urinary troubles. Not only does Swamp-Uoot give new life and activity to the kidneys the cause of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts as a tonic for the entire constitution.
