How To Find Out
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine aod let it stand tweoiy-foor hours,
a sediment or settling indicates an un
healthy cooditioc of the kidneys. 'When
urine stains uoao it is evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate
or pain in tbe back, is also convincing
proof that tbe kidneys and bladeraae out
or order.
What To Do.
There is comfort ia the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, too groat kidney remedy
fulfils every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every partof the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to bold urine aod scald
ing pain in passing it, or hod effects fol
lowing use of liquor, wins or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
being compelled to get up many times
daring the night to urinate. Tbe mild
and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-
Koet is soon realised, it stands the
highest for its wonderful cures of the
most distressing cases. If you aeed
medicine yoa should have the best
floM by druggists, price fifty caste aod
ooe dollar. You may have a sample
bottle aad pamphlet both seat free by

Edward W. Bok, writing undr the
caption of "Breaking Down the Fences"
gives some wholesome and sensible ad
viec to young girlsin the AugutLMh,
Home Journal, and sounds a warning
against allowing them too much freedom
of action too much liberty. Mr. Bok dis
cerns that summer brings greater free
dom to young girls than any other sea
son, and presents to them many more
opportunities to unconsciously break
down tbe fences the barriers of the
best and wisest deportmeui. "City girls',
he contends, "often think they are free
to do things in the country or at the sea
shore than in tbe city. Little licenses
seem so much more natural ia sammer
when we live an outdoor life. It is a
magnificent tribute to a girls chartcter
when she can be unconventional and yet
preserve in every sense the dignity of
girlhood. That is what commands the
highest respect for a girl. It is a very
fine line which divides unconventionally
in a girl's deportment from a certain li
cense aod freedom of action, wihch is so
fraught with danger. And yet on one
side of that line lies a girl's possession:
her self-respect, aod on the other side
ber loss of it That line is the fence, ;ind
a girl cannot be too careful about re
moving one stone from it She may
think it smart or clever if she just seeks
to remove the small stone which lies on
the top. But in that very act she shows
a lack of cleverness. No greater satis
faction than this can come to a woman:
the consciousness that she preserved, at
ell times in her girlhood, the prescious
possession of hea future womanhood.
And one little slip can dim that satisfac
tion. Truths Told la a Few Words.
A child's respect for its jiarents is not
secured by over-leniency any more than
by over-severity.
A daughter should never seek nor be
allowed to "outdress" her mother. In
every family the mother should be the
best-dressed member.
The discarded finery of a daughter
should never constitute a mother's warJ
robe. No one feels especially dignified
in the presence of one whose old clothes
she is wearing, and a mother should at
all times preserve Iter dignity before her
children, Tbe mother who never loses
her queenlineas will never lose her
crawn.
Preventable misfortunes consist, chief
ly, of manifold tilings, little to do, but
immence things to have done.
Tbe man who earns one dollar and
spends two, aad the, man who earns two
and spends one, stands on either side of
the hair-lfoe between heedlessness and
discretion, between ruin and safety.
Parents generally receive that meas
ure of filial respect they deserve not al
ways perhaps but very generally.
When a mother allows her dougbter
to appropriate her wraps, gloves, veils,
or other articles of personal attire, she
begins a policy of familiarity which
sooner or later breeds contempt A re
spect for one's belongings engenders a
respect for their possessor. August
Ladies' Home Journal.
Tke Oily Way.
A prominent educator once remarked
to a class in elements of education."
There are a gerat many methods in teach
ing, that are used by different teachers
with apparent success; but there is only
one way to teach' aod that is tbe right
way; and when you have found that way
failure is impossible. "
Ibis can be said of every profession or
occupation in life, they are all crowded
to overflowing with theories, plans sod
methods of all kinds, both practical aod
impractical sad yet tbe only way, tbe
right way if it was known, would answer
at all times, in all cases, and never fail.
The various nations of the world have
each a form of government of their own
while in some of them there is a great
deal of similarity, yst in each there are
somethings characteristic of the people
of the different nations of tbe world that
show there are many ideas as to the bast
way of governing the people.
And in every country and every clime
there is strife and contention, which shows
that wrong is being done the people in
ome way. It shows that the right form
of government has never been established
not a right form of government, but
the right form of government, which ad
minsters to each aod every one equal
justice and mercy.
When all the world it governed in the
right way, than strife aad contention must
cease, then all will receive equal justice
and mercy, aod all will be satisfied.
Large volumes have been written on
the various religious beliefs of the world
many of which claim tot their foundation
tbe sacred scripture, and many mors of
them would fain try to attribute their or
igin to the same devine agency;
Yst ws know that it is impossible for
afl to be right Only one plan was gi v
en whereby we might inherit eternal
