    How to Prolong Life
No man or womnn cnn liope to live long if the Kidneys, K'.iulilcr, or Urinary
Organs are diseased. Disorders of tlint kind slitmM never be neglected. Don't
delay in rinding out your condition. Yon can tell as well as a physician. Put
some urine in a plass or bottle, and let it stand a day and night. A sediment at
the bottom is a sure sijrn that you have Kidney
disease. Other certain signs are pains in the small
of the back a desire to make water often, especially
at night a scalding sensation in passing it and if
urine stains linen there is no doubt that the disease
is present.
There is a cure for Kidney and
Diseases. It is Dr. David Kennedy's favorite I?',
Remedy. It has been for thirty years, and
is today, the greatest and best medicine
known or thise troubles.
Mr. William W, Adams,
cor. Jefferson Avenue and
Clifton Street, Roches
ter, N. Y., says:
" Three years ago
I was taken with Kidney
disease very badly ; at times
I was completely prostrat
ed ; in fact, was so bad that
a day was set for the doc
tors to perform an operation
upon me. I pon that day I com
menced the use of Dr. David Kennedy's
favorite Remedy, and it was not long before I was entirely cured, and I have had
no return of the trouble since. My weight has increased, and I never was so
well as I am now. Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy saved my life."
Favorite Remedy acts directly upon the Kidneys, Liver and Blood. In cases
of Nervousness, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Vlcers, Old Sores, Blood Poisoning,
Bright's Disease and Female Troubles it has made cures after all other treat
ments failed. It is sold for $1.00 a bottle at drug stores. A teaspoonful is a dose.

THKl'OST OF PROFANITY IN OLDKN T1MFS
At the trial of n rase in the Pike
County Courts, the rpconl shows
thnt ml jectives wtre ptnloyed to ex
press with force tho testimony. At
the Jnnunry Sessions 1831 in an in
dictment for nssnnlt nnd buttery, in
wliich Elijah Doolittle wns the de-
fendnnt upon the trlnl of tho ense
hefore the court and jury, Jmnes
Hoin'ot'ck, the prosecutor behiR
under examinntion testified nnd
nid thnt he wns"elegnntly whipped"
by tliedefendent. Afterwords Elina
Brown wns calle:l nnd sworn ns a
witness on the part of the defendant
and ii)on his examination before
the court and jury, be wns asked by
the court, whethor as Hornbeek
stated ho was "elegnntly whipped?"
The said Elias Brown impudently,
contemptuously, nnd profanely, an
swered nnd said, "Yes ho wns pretty
damned well whipped." Whereupon
the court for the aforesaid impudent,
contemptuous, nnd profane answer,
do sentence the said Elias Brown to
pay n fine of five dollars and-stnnd
committed until the sentence is com
plied with.
Tho Greatest Depth Of The
Ocean Ever Measured
The verified soundings are those
made in tho Atlantic Ocean ninety
miles off the island" of St. Thomas,
in the West Indies, 3,875 fathoms,
or 21), 250 feet. Deeper water lias
been reported south of the Grand
Bank of Newfoundland, over 27,000
feet in depth bnt additional sound
ings in that locality did not corro
borate this Home years ago it was
claimed that very deep soundings
from 45000 to 48000 feet had been
found of the coast of South America
but tins report was altogether dis
credited on additional investigation
in these localities. The ship Chal
lenger which in 1872-74 made a
voyage round for the express purpose
of taking deep sea soundings in all
the oceans found the greatest depth
touched in the Pacific Ocean less than
3000 fathoms, and the lowest in the
A lantic, ?,875 fathoms, as given
a hove.
How Tho Twelve Apostles
Died
According to the generally re
ceived traditions of the church, An
drew suffered martyrdom at Pa trie,
in Achaia, on a cross known as St.
Andrew's cross; Bartholomew was
crucified at Albanopolis in Armenia ;
James, the elder, son of Zebedee,
was beheaded ; James, the brother
of our Lord, was probably stoned to
death ; Matthew died a natural
death; Philip died n violent death
at Hiorapolis, but by whnt mode is
uncertain ; Simon Peter was cruci
fied nt Rome; Thnddeus, of Jude,
probably suffered martyrdom in Per
sia ; John, the beloved disciple,
lived, according to Jeromo, to lie
about 100 years old, and died at
Ephesis ; Simon Zclotes was cruci
fied nt 129 years of nge ; Thomas
was put to death in India ; and Ju
das Iseariot hung himself.
They Were Thirsty Then.
Either a wave of temperance
must have swept over little Pike in
1827, or else there was an unmiti
gated amount of illegal selling of
liquor, and general drinking, for nt
the August session of the Court in
1827 twenty-four indictments were
found by the Grand Jury against
different persons for keeping "tip
pling houses." It seems that many
of the accused bocame convinced
thas some other climate would be
more healthy, for the Sheriff made
return on the Capias placed in his
hands for their arrest "non est in
ventus," which means, freely trans
lated, that they had skipped.
The enstom dors not, however,
appear to have boon entirely broken
up, for nt the August sessions in
1830 eleven more indictments were
returned true bills. Most of tho
cases seem to have been settled in
some way, for there is no record that
the defendants were put on trial.
Ayers Newspaper Manual.
N. W. Ayerand Son of Philadel
phia have sent us a copy of their
newspajMsr Annual tor 1898. The
hook contains a carefully prepared
list of newspapers and periodicals
imblwhed in the United States, Ter
ritories nnd Canada; with such facts
concerning them as are of interest
toadvertUers. An excellent feature
is the one giving a description of the
counties, their population, chnricttr
of surface and soil, chief products
Hiid manufactures. The book is
finely printed, well bound, and the
information concisely arranag.id and
complete for all ordinary purposes.
"I feel it my duty to give yon a
truthful statement of what Cham
lierhiin's Colic, Cholera and Dia
rrhoea Remedy did," writes J. S.
Collins, of Moore, S. C. "I had a
child about two years old, that had
the diarrhoea, for two months. I
tried the best known remedies, but
none gave the least relief. Whon
this remedy came to baud, I gave it
as directed, and in two days the
child was coniplotly curod. " Sold

Wawiinoton, D.C., April 11, 1898.
On to Cuba 1 That is the order
that will be issuod the minute that
Congress nets upon President Me
Kinley's recommendation for armed
intervention tor the purpose of
driving Spain from Cuba, nnd there
will be no delay on the part of Con
gress in adopting the resolution that
will place the authority in the
hnnds of the President to use the
army nnd navy of the United States
to force the Spanish out of Cuba.
Proclaiming an armistice in Cuba
was a trick worthy of Spain, but it
failed to bring the delay nt the
Washington end that Spain expec
ted. Unless there is some unex
pected delay, onr warships will be
demanding the evacuation of Cuba
with shot and shell before the close
of the present week. Tho Spanish
will, of course, have a chance nu to
the last minute before the shooting
begins to peaceably surrender Cuba,
but there is now nothing in Bight
to indicate that they will get out
until they are forced out.
In intervening in Cuba this GovJ
ernment has no intention of making
a war of conquest, but in the lan
guage of President McKinley, is
merely endeavoring to fulfill a duty
to humanity by ending a situation
the indefinite prolongation of which
has become insufferable." There
fore whether the war will go furth
er than is necessary to drive the
Spanish out of Cuba will depend
upon the Spanish themselves. While
the official plan of operations is not
known outside of those who are in
trusted with the duty of carrying it
out, it is understood that the initial
navn demonstration of this govern
ment will be made against Cuba
alone, and that no hostile move
ment againt the Spanish colonies in
tho PhiHipine Islands, the Canary
Islands or Porto R co wid be made
unless the opposition of the Spanish
navy to our taking possession of
Cuba is such as to render such steps
necessary. i
There is an impression anion?
naval officers that if Spain doa not
make an abject surrender beforethe
fighting begins, it will throw up the
sponge before we ha ve nn opportuu-1
ity to completely destroy its navy, I
and so call upon the European pow-1
ers to arrange some sort of pence f r ,
her. It is thought thnt the diatrib-!
ntion of the Spnnish navy indicates j
that nn attempt will be made by her '
fastest ships to attack some of our
sencoast cities and to avoid bnttle ,
with us unless they can find some of 1
onr ships in positions where they '
can be overpowered and either sunk
or captured. Naval officers will be
surprised if Spain placesany portion I
of her navy where it. will come int )
oontnst with the powerful fleet that
we will send to invest Cuba. Sixty
days is the outside guess of onr nav
al officers as to tho length of the war.
Gen. Blanco did not improve the
relations between Congress and
Spain when he made a discourteous
monkey of himself by refusing to
see Consul Gonoral Lee whon he
called to say an official goodbye just
previous to his departure from Ila
vanna. It is likely also that Gen.
Lee may have some stories to toll
when he reaches Washington that
will likewise add to the existing en
mity towards th Spaniards.
An informal agreement has been
reached by the House Committee on
Ways and Means, which has been
considering the matter for several
weeks, that the war revenue bill to
bo reported to the House as soon as
hostilities begin, shall include a pro
vision increasing tho internal reve
nue tax on beer from $1 to t'2 a bar
rol, notwithstanding tho arguments
of the representatives of the brew
ers who were granted hearings last
week. It is estimated that this in-J
crease in tho beer tax w ill add f 35,
000,000 a year to the Government's
revenues, lobacco, in its various
manufactured forms, is relied upon
ta produce ns much more ; likewise
a tax on several kinds of commer
cial paper. A bill has also been
prepared by Chairman Dlngley, pro-
viding for tho issue of bonds to the
amount of 100,000,000, as a tempor
ary loan, and from three to five times
that amount, as may be needed, as
a permanent loan. These bonds
will be payablo in coin, just as all
our outstanding bond are, and are
to boar 3 per cent, interest. Al
though offers of more than $500,000,
000 have been made to the Govern
ment by large financial i- stitutions,
it is probable that any bonds issued
will be offered to the public and al
lotted to those who first apply for
them, at their lace value.
Although couched in the most
moderate language, President Mo
Kiuloy'a reply to the joint note of
the six great European nations, on
our relations with Spain, will toko
its place in history alongside of t he
Monroe Doctrine. There was no
word of bluster, bnt every Euro
pean power understood its meaning
perfectly that the United States
bad determined that Spanish rule
in Cuba should cease forever, nnd
that no interference with its policy
would be tolerated. The represen
tatives of nt lcist two European
powers France and Austria and
possibly those of a third Italy
had hopes of arranging some sort of
European joint intervention, but
they nbandotied them nfter hearing
Mr. McKinley's reply to the joint
note which was intended to be a
friendly feeler.
The two year-old son of W. L.
Furgason of Bolton, Miss., had
whooping cough. "After several
physician hud prescribed for him,
without giving relief," writes Mr.
Fergnson, "I jiersnnded my wife to
try a 25 cent bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. The first (lose bad
the desired effect, and in forty-eight
hours he was entirely free from nil
cough. I consider your remedy the
best in the market, especially for
children, nnd recommend it at all
times." The 25 and B0 cent sizes
