ARC YOUR
KIDNEYS DISEASED?
If Any of Your Family, Either in This or Past Generations,
Have Been Troubled with Kidney Disease Make a Test of
Your Urine and Satisfy Yourself.
Miss Clara Arndt, Secretary of the Northshore German Club of
Kenosha, Wis., Says that She Has Been Permanently
Cured by Warner's Safe Cure.
Warner' Safe Cure, In begin with, Is purely vegetable and contain! no harmful
drugs, 1h a most valuable anil effective tonic, It la a stimulant to digestion and
awaken the torpid liver, putting the patient Into the very best receptive itate for the
work of tho restorer of the kidneys. It g oca right at Its work, and docs tt with
absolute method, preparing the tissues, soothing where soothing l needed, stimulat
ing the cnfeoblcd organs and healing at the samo time. It bullda up the body, give
It strength, and reslorea the energy that la or has been wasting under the baneful
ufTerlng of kidney disease.
In the morning put some urine In a glass or bottle, let It stand 21 hours; If
there In a reddish sediment In tho bottom of the glass, or If tho urine Is cloudy
or milky, or If you see particles or germs flontlng about In It, your kidneys are dis
eased and you should lose no time, but get a bottle of Warner's 8afe Cure, as It Is
dangerous to neglect your kidneys for oven one day.
Von begin with no symptoms more definable than by the term lassitude, You
are languid, low-spirited, weak and flabby and n constantly drubbing ncho In tho

Twenty-three llttlo boys of asserted
colors and nativity, most of them boot
blncks or "nnwslcs," assembled at the City
Mission on North Tenth street Frldny aft
ernoon to listen to it debate, In which four
of their number went to participate. Tho
queetlon wna "Resolved, That the dog In
an enemy rather than ri friend to boys."
It was decided In favor of tho ucgatlvn,
the pro-dog sldo having, In the minds of
threo Judges, produrrd the best argument.
Thn lnds seemed to enter Into tho spirit
of the thing with gusto, though some of
them were different on account of tho pres
ence of two or three visitors. Tho ad
dressee of ono or two gave evidence of
careful preparation. Considering that fow
of them have gone to school or had tho
sdvantogo of a home training, they be
haved themsches admirably, attesting the
confidence they have In Mrs. K M. Shin
rock, Miss Ora Shlnrnck, her daughter, and
Miss Nellie Meflee. who have long applied
themselves earnestly to this child reecue
work. All are members of tho Woman's
Christian Temperance union, under whose
dlrectlou the enterprise Is conducted.
Tho organization which meets there
every Friday afternoon for some "literary"
work, to be followed by refreshments, calls
Itself tho P.on' Tcmporanre society. The
meeting opens with a song. Then comes
n lesson In which the elements of
physiology, theology and hygiene nro in
geniously blended; another song Is added
to the program, nnd then the teacher asks
them for their motto, to which they an-
OLD PEOPLE
Have a charm of their own when they
re not weak nnd feeble, but hale nnd
hearty, enjoylnR the sports and pleasures
of youth though they cannot participate
In them. The whole secret of a sturdy
old age is this : Keep the stomach and
organs of digestion and nutrition in per
fect order. The young mun who does
not think of his stomach will be made to
think of it as he grows old. It is the
" weak " stomach, incapable of supplying
the adequate nutrition for the Ixxly,
which causes the weakness and feeble
ness of old age.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion nnd nutrition. It
makes the "weak" stomach strong, and
so enables the body to be fully nourished
and strengthened by the food which is
eaten.
"I suffered for six years with constipation and
indigestion, during which time I employed
several physicians, but they could not reach
ray case, writes Mr. O. ropplewell, of Eureka
Springs. Carroll Co., Ark, M felt that there
was no help for roc. could not retain food on my

Miss Clara Arndt, secretary of the North
shore Herman club, composed of young society
folk engaged In tho higher study of tho Teu
tonic language at Kenosha, Wis., writes a
grateful letter, which Is a fair sample of thou
nands written every week by people who have
suffered with kidney disease and been cured
by Warner's Safe Cure. Mies Arndt writes.
"I know Warner's Safe Curo aaved my life,
Last spring I hnd a severe attack of Jaundice,
with other complications, caused by the diseased
condition of my kidneys and liver, which laid me
up for several weeks. I lost my appetite, became
nervous and Irritable, lost flesh and courage and
found no relief until our druggist advised me to
try Warner's Safe Cure. The first bottle helped
me, so I tried another, and then another, and In
side of a month I was well and have enjoyed good
health ever since. I gladly endorse Warner's Safe
Cure."
Thousands of letters are received ftom
grateful patients, who, like Miss Arndt. have
swer, "I will praise thee for I am fearfully
and wonderfully made." The meeting
closes with the debate.
President Hnsy with Tina.
At this Juncture the instructors are sun-
posed to step into the background to a
certain extent and permit tho boys to
govern themselves, but tbls wasn't pos
sible Friday There was a hitch In the
proceedings at the very outset. The presi
dent being called for, It was learned that
he was sotting up pine In a bowling alley
and couldn't be there till late, so Miss
bhlnrock had to tako the chair.
Miss McOee and Mrs. M. 0. Andrews
wcro appointed as Judge. Then little 7-
ycar-old Carl Kettleman led off for the
negative, pointing out that dogs are the
friend of mankind, bcauo they save lives
of travelers In the Alps and guard the
property of their masters from thieves. Ho
poln'.l out also the utility of shepherd
dog3.
Jamca Van Avery (affirmative) told the
story of a mad dog that bit an unoffending
citizen, causing hlra to commit milcldc to
avoid the rabies. He thought that dogs In
the nbstract are treacherous and ungrateful.
Carl Frampton, president of the society
a bright little colored lad of 9 years, en
tered Just In time to rally to tho support
of his colleague In defense of the doctrine
of dogs. He said he knew of a dog onco
that aroused hl master one night by balk
ing when the house was on fire, thereby
saving the lives of the entire family, and
cited another case of a dog that dragged a
llttlo gr from the river Just as she was
going down the third time.
Drive Away Debt-Payer.
Jlmrale Stitt, brother of the boy who
found the $1,000 rata' nest In a lumber yard
two months ago, cloaed for the anti-dog
side by referring to the snatch-beast that
once drove n man away from his father's
bouse who had com to pay his father some
money. This dog, like all others, he said,
lacked a sense of discrimination, though
he didn't express It that way.
When the Judges brought In their decision
the adherents of the negative side cheered
lustily and those of the other faction
looked somewhat chagrined.
Only one girl was prcaont, little Nettle
Hlmon, and sho kept In a corner by herself
und remained very quiet, for the antipathy
of the Roys' Temperance society to girls is
well known throughout the neighborhood.
Every ono who has applied for admission
so far has been blackballed. When the ap
ples were passed at the close of the debate
It una found that the supply was short,
lacking one of enough to go around. A
dozen voices ehouted: "Hey, thero Nettiet
Rive Sammy that apple! You ain't no mem
ber!" And the luckless Nettlo bad to yield
the fruit, though, to her credit, be It said,
she did It with good grace.
Only once In the year do tho boys of this
neighborhood approach the girls with a flag
of truce, and that's about Thanksgiving
time, when it Is customary for tbem to give
the girls a tea. Then about the holiday
season the girls return the compliment. All
of these festivals aro under the manage
ment of the Women's Christian Temperance
union.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16. A full report of
the condition of the navy and of IU needs
for the future has been submitted to the
president by John I). Long, secretary of
the navy. The report li Intended for the
consideration of congress and where de
sirable legislation Is recommended bills
will be prepared embodying It for the con

the various squadrons and Is In part ns fol

and of a large number of distinguished
Japanese officials, a mounmcnt wna un
veiled and dedicated at Kurlhaniu, Praga,
Japan, marking the landing pluce of Com
modore Perry on his historic visit to that
country in July, 1663.
In the operations of the North Atlantic
squadron the Instruction of officers and
men has received more attention during
tho last year than ever before. In addition
to tho usual evolutionary cruises along tho
Atlantic coast and In West Indian waters,
several of the smaller vessels have done
Important surveying work, and also been
on hand to protect American Interests
along tho South and Central American
coasts. During the summer, fleet evolu
tions were had In Nantuckot and Vineyard
soundn, and practical exerlmcntn carried
on to determine the facility with which
navul guns' up to 6-Inch caliber can lie
landed. Shore fortifications for both gun
and torpedo work were erected with tho
resources of the squadron nnd practical
experiments In tho mutter of attack und
defense conducted on sea and on shore.
The voHselr of the South Atlantic squad
ron have cruised along the entlro south
Atlantic seaboard, In harmony with our
commcrclnl Interests thorc.
In order to re-establish the European
station, one vessel was withdrawn from the
Houtn Atlantic Bquuurou nnd two vemeis
were withdrawn from the Axlatlc squadron.
They arc now cruising In the Mediterran
ean. The vessels on the Pacific liavo been In
active service and have visited tho Import
ant points on the Pacific coast. On account
of the great length of coast line, tho neces
sity for protecting our Interests In sections
where conditions are frequently unsettled
and the few vessels available for this ita
tlon. they have been compelled to drill
singly Instead of lu squadron.
Apprentice and Training Mquadroiii.
The vessels of the apprentice squadron
have made tho usual cruises to Kurope and
the West Indies, with beneficial results.
The method referred to In my last report
of training landsmen who come from vari
ous parts of the United States, has provod
so far successful that the department has
Increased the facilities for this work. The
(raining vessels are kept cruising continu
ously, except foi the short periods neces
sary for repairs and for supplies.
The need of lino officers for sea duty-' bo
comes steadily more pressing and In case
It should become necessary to man all thn
vessel of our present fleet tho required
number Is not available and I recommend
that the number of lieutenants be Increased
from 800 to .150 and that the limit of the
number of Junior lieutenants and ruslgus
Itf made (Vio.
1 concur with thn chief naval constructor
that there should be mi Increnee in his
corps. With more ships to build there
must be more constructors.
Some Increase In the corps of civil engi
neers Is neeesxary In view of the great
Increase In yard and dock construction.
I cannot too earnestly call attention to
the necessity for an Increase In nllstmcttt,
a most Important branch of the navy. ,t
with the officers ro with tho diluted men.
The ships of the navy have boon greatly
Increased In number, but commensurate
steps have not been token to provide the
necessary crews for them. I recommend
that thn present enlisted forco be Increased
by 3,tt men.
I recommend that tho marine corps be
Increased by 750 men, as recommended by
the gineral board.
Mivnt Acntlrmr,
Favorable consideration is Invited to the
report of the board of vlsltorn to this In
stitution and to It rerommendatlone:
1. That the title of "midshipman," which
is full of historic associations, be restored
and substituted for "naval cadet."
I. That the probationary course for naval
ennet ne reduced.
Also to the report of the chief nf tli
bureau of steam engineering, and to Its
recommendations:
1. That an engineering experimental
laboratory be established at the naval
academy for the use of the cadets In their
studies.
2. That a nost-Ernduate course of limtrne.
tlon In engineering be authorized.
Also tna reports or tno cmcr or me bureau
of navigation and the superintendent of
the naval academy and to their recom
mendations: 1. That no cadet shall hereafter be ap
pointed whose ago la under IS or ovor 14
on October 1 of the year of entrance to
the naval academy.
2. That the salaries of the civilian pro
fessors at the naval academy tie revised.
3. That a training vessel be built for the
naval academy sufficiently large to ac
commodate; the entire corps of cadets,
I recommend that the number of cadets
at the naval academy bo Increased 60 per
cent, as recommended by the general
board, and that thorc be appointed annually
Upon recommendation of the superintend
ent of the naval academy the department
decided. In the Interest of the convenient
of cnndldater for admission as well as
the government, to have examinations for
admission to this Institution conducted by
the civil service commission at or near
the homes of the candidates Instead of at
the naval academy as heretofore. The
wishes of the department were cordially
scquicsueti in uy iiiu i-ivii service commis
sion, and this new method of examination
has been put In operation with successful
reiuiis,
National Naval Reserve.
I have again to call attention to the tires
Ing need of a national naval reserve force
from which to draw for sea service Im
mediately upon an outbreak of war. This
subject hail received attention In previous
reports and recommendations have been
made for the enrollment unit organization
of such a national body, to be under the
general aireciion or me rsnvy acpariment
and subject to the call of the chief execu
tive In time of national emersencv.
The results of the Spanish-American war
were such as to assure everyone having
knowledge of naval mattrrH that steps
should at once be taken to meet tho one
certain and positive requirement which will
face the nation upon an outbreak of war
me immeoii'.e necessity at mar exigent
time. If It comes, of a large increase In the
men of the navy from an existing reserve
an increase wnien must, in me main, fie
niade from the seafaring data, who. hav
ing acquired the habit of the sea. ore at
home on tho water. There Is no better
way or insuring sucn a reserve tnan ty the
measure now urgea,
Our Dressing need la for such a reserve
a bodv to fro to the front on board shin
at once upon the outbreak of war, or when
It Is Imminent.
Next to this will coiiw the defense of
the coast, and for sucn purpose the naval
mllltta will be essential,
I see reasons for both organisations nnd
have heretofore done a;i possible to aid
the one now exlstln- the naval inllltla. ami
to convince congress of the necessity tor
me autuorir.aiion or inc otner ine national
navai reserve.
Nil Increase In Ordnance.
Ill order to gain greater energy guns
have been Increased In welsht and dimen
sions until It Is believed that they have
now reached a point beyond which It Is In
expedient to go. Any further Increase lu
their efficiency must be looked for In the
use of heavier nrotectlle. and In the de
velopment of powder josesslng higher

tho noooe or tne department, it lias neen
tmrmltted to ndonl within Itself the
methods of that commission, thus recogniz

lies! Talent In .Needed,
Attention Is called to the first and very
Important report of the board of visitors to
the naval observatory, I earnestly com
mend Its recommendations to careful con
sideration. This board wan created by act
of congress In March last. I believe Its
visitations will be found valuable In leak
ing the observatory efficient and In rank
with the best Institutions of the land. It
appeals that no other observntory In the
world has the expenditure of so much
money, hut also that Its results are not
commensurate with those of some other
observntorle the expenditures of which
are less. Its head should, of course, be
the bet astronomer, who has proper ad
ministrative qualifications, that can be
found In tho country. It Is especially de
sirable that he should have continuity of
tenure, und the obkervatory has undoubt
edly suffered from frequent changes In its
superintendents.
While the average term of service of su
perintendents tt Greenwich has be-n
twenty-eight years and .tt Harvard llfteep,
at the naval observatory It lias been only
a little over three.
Increnm- f !' .n
Thn nnvv tmlav i a far Rreater factor In
our relations with thn world than It was
before the recent national expansion which
now Includes V-orto Illco. thfl Hawaiian
Islands, the vast area of land and sea In
the Vhlllpplnes and our obligations to Cuba.
If we are to have a navy at all It must be
commensurate with these great extensions
creater In International even than In terri
torial Importance. This necessarily Involves
tne construction or more iiuytw yuanem,
their manning, exercise and maintenance.
The board on construction recommends.
Three seagoing battleships of about 16,("K
tons trial displacement.
Two armored cruisers of about H,f0 tons
trial displacement.
Six gunboats of about 1,200 tons trial dis
placement Six gunboats of about fco tons trial dis

Six training ships of about 2 ,(.' tons trial

Kour picket boats of about 650 tons trial

I'our turbouts.
All tho vessels thus recommended nre de
sirable In tho prospective and harmonious
development of our naval rorce. A larger

or the fact that none was made last year.
Thn department also recommends:

CART AHEAD OF THE HORSE
Vhnt Peddler noldlirrsi's Vehicle At
tempted to llo Coming
Down Mill.
Sam Ooldberg, a peddler living at Tenth
and Bancroft streets, met with an accident
yesterday while driving his wagon down
tho Dodge street hill, between Nineteenth
nnd Seventeenth streets. Tho brake refused
to work, causing the hcavlly-loaded wagon
to run forward upon the team with such
force that one of the hold-back straps Mas
broken and the tongue fell to the pavement.
The team was then powerless to check the
impetus of the wagon and Goldberg was
unable evcu to guide It, so for two blocks
there was as precipitate and dangerous a
runaway an any boy could wish to see.
It wound up with a crash and a shower
of flying splinters In a stone pile by the new
wing of the federal building. One of the
horses was cut on tho sharp stones; Gold
berg sustained two broken ribs and the
wagon was demolished.

BURNING IN MID-AIR
IN SIOHI Of HUNDREDS
MAN AND WOMAN ON UVE WIRE
Ida Jantz, Looking at a Fire from
Screaming in Agony, Across
H. Bell, After Releasing
and Falls Upon the
Woman Dies:
CLI'VHLANI) Sn K. 1901.- A woman
bnuglns in mld-ulr, screaming In agony,
hel l the Banc of hundreds of horror-stricken
people who had gutherod near the Wright
House on Ontario Stteet.
Attracted by a slight flic tn that Mcinlty.
a number of employes aud others got on the
roof of the building to sec the blaic. Ida
JnnU, was one of the number nnd, while
looking over tho coping, unthinkingly took
hold of a live electric wire.
The shock from thn heavily charged wire
throw her. writhing, ovor the cdgi nt tho
roof upon tho wire and she hung there
while the crowd below looked on, powerless
to help.
School Director 'Ibomns II Hell, was uear
and saw the woman's terrible predicament.
Tbo only way he could reach her was by a
window overlooking Ontario Street, nnd to
tbls he rushed. He climbed out and up a
Arc escape till he was opposite thn woman,
who by this tlmo was unnblo longer to cry
out.
On a level with tho roof. Mr. Hell
reached out and with greot effort raited
her from tho wire until she wis within
reach of those above who lifted her sense
less form over the coping.
Dut, when the strain was over, Hell s foot
slipped. To save himself from n frightful
fall to thn pavement ho grasped wildly and
fell across tho same wire from which he
had just rercued thn woman. Tho shock
rendered him powerless tn move snd hi
hung there helpless while tho silent, deadly
current hurned Into his flesh. No ene was
brave enough to attempt his rescue nnd It
wa6 several minutes before the current was
turned off, and lie was removed to a placo
of safety.
Tho woman died but Mr. Hell whs taken
to the General Hospital, where the doctors
found him suffering from a cry severe
nervous shock In addition to being fright
fully burned. A few days Inter ho was re
moved to his home where ho was confined
for eleven months. During tho first three
months of his Illness It was found necessary
to resort to skin grafting In order to bent
his wound. His I'rinnds responded and over
Ihrco thousand pieces ot Bkln were used
to cover ovor the raw flesh. In speaking
of his restoration to health. Mr. Hell said
to nn Interviewer:
"My recovery from the drradful shock,
of course, was slow. I suffered untold tor
tures. My nervous system whs a complete,
wreck; I had spells of dllness. and. when
I attempted to walk, a numbness came over
my whole body. My sleep was not at all
restful or natural and I always awoke tired
out. My appetite was poor and at times 1
suffered from violent nervous headaches.
Tho powerful electric shock had undermined
my whole system. In spite of the doctor's
earn I didn't seem to improve. I had been
Idle a whole year and grew anxious to re
turn to my work, but my condition remained
bo bad that I was very much discouraged
and feared I would never regain my health.
"I heard of a case similar to initio which
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People
had cured. Then I determined to try this
medicine. Hy the time I had taken half the
second box I could notice a marked Im
provement. Tho headaches disappeared, my
nerves became steadier and I slept well. I
took the pills for a month and after I ic
sumed my work I continued till I whs per
fectly well. They certainly did wonders for
mo and I tako pleasure In recommending
them."
The above Is a plain, stralght-forward
statement of facts. The horrible incident
occurred on tho evening nf June 17, 1895,
and tho story of It was published by the
newspapers nt the time. Tho .oqcel, which
Is known to many, and Is told In Mr.
Doll's own words, cannot bo doubted. He
Is well known In Cleveland, not only
through his prominence In school matters,
but as a hero the man who risked his life
In a vain attempt to save a woman from a
terrlblo death
Mr. Hell's accident was not one of the
sort which falls to the lot of many pen
plo but the results thst followed wcro thn
same, In kind, ns the many nervous trouble
with which thousands of persons nre af
flicted. Only In his case they wero un
usually sovere. His nervous system was
wrecked almost beyond repair and nn
medicine did him any good until ho tried
Dr. Williams' Pink Pill for Palo People.
They cured him.

you will find the some price

give as much value

and you can figure out for
yourself, if buying goods
as we do for twenty large
stores at a time, we can
give more value in woolens
and trimmings than the
tailor that buys for one
small.
If you were selling goods
couldn't you afford to sell
them cheaper to a customer
who bought' ten thousand
dollars worth at a time than
to a man who bought one
hundred dollars worth?
Now you can see that
our talk of better goods for
