Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kidneys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kid neys. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect cf Swamp-Root is soon realized.

Call for Democratic Convention. The democrats of tbe several townehlpi of Marshall county are hereby called to meet on Saturday, Decemuek 23, r.H)l. for tbe purpose of appointing delegates to Thirteenth congressional district contention to be held in South iiend on Wednesday, January 8, U02, the ob ject of said district contention being to elect a member of the state central committed for tbe ensuing two years. Each township is entitled to the followinf number of delegates: Union 2 Center 4 Green 1 Bourbon 2 Tippecanoe 1 German 2 North 1 Polk 2 West 1 Walnut 2 Total IS Said meetings in each township shall be at 1:30 o'clock and at the following places to-wit: Union at Culver.

At said meetings each township is requested to select a member of the county central committee from each Toting precinct and report the names of such committeemen selected to tbe secretary of the county central committee. C. C. Vink, Chairman. 11 A uu y E. Gkube, Sec. IT DON'T LOOK KICJIIT. Democrats of the district are wondering: why the meeting to be held to elect a successor to Peter J . Kruyer should be called for Jan. 8, when the state committee has fixed Jan. 2, as the date for holding district meetings for the selection of committeemen to meet in Indianapolis for organization. Mr. Kruyer, the committeeman from this district, has called a meeting to be held in South Bend Jan. 8. How he expects the committeeman elected to reach Indianapolis on the same day and participate in the organization is more than some people can understand. Why does Mr. Kruyer not call a meeting for Jan. 2, as requested by the state committee? Goshen Democrat. The Plymouth Democrat explains that Mr. Kruyer intends to attend the meeting of the state committee On the 8th of January. It might, however, be well for him, in order to avoid confusion and perhaps illfeeling, to conform strictly to the order of the state central committee. That would seem to be the safe and judicious course. South Bend Times. There is no question but that the Goshen Democrat and the South Bend Times are right. Mr. Kruyer is doing wrong by failing to conform to the regulations as laid down by the state central committee. He may have no designing motive in ignoring the state central committee, but it looks suspicious nd will have the effect of disorganizing the democracy of the 13th district. He say 3 that he will attend the state central committee meeting on the Sth of January. Suppose he does. What authority

would he have to act with that committee? There is to be a new committee chosen and only such men whose credentials show them to be selected as district chairman in January, i(j2 , w ill he admitted into the councils of t he state central committee. In the second place, such a course i a discourtesy to Nit. Kruytr's successor, who is entitled to participate in the organizalion "f the new committee. There is hut on. honorable way out of the matter for Mr. Kruyer and that is to change the date of the diMiict meeting so as to conform to the call of the state committee. Tricks in politics have always faileil of fruitful results and

we hope that Mr. Kruyer will profit by the advice of those who have been longer in the harness than he. Let us avoid everything that has the least semblance of peanut politics. tkiki to i:m iiki: i.iki:. 3lr. s. It. sImhIit Jl.ikr an I'llnrt tf KtuI Khi-I Ii ly Tie. Iy t Ii M orpli i lit HaMt. Mrs S . H. Shudf r, a resident ot Columbia City, attempted suicide Thursday, Dec. by taking morphine, but the prompt arrival of a physician prevented her design. Dr. Sonder, tbe I'oet Bays, managed to aruiif her and when he Raised her eyelids ehe said she could see. She ve8 raised to a sitting posture and medicine "vas administered to counteract the eliects ot the druj?. Mrs. Shuder said the was tired of life and neve- wanted to see anybody again. It seems that ehe tried to take a dose of the drtp about noon, but her daughter, Mrs. Wm. Hawkins, and her bunband succeeded in taking it from her. She had a pupply of morphin in the houee and took another swallow of it. She did this without the knowledge of anyone and it was only when it began to take effect that they suspected it, and Mr. Shuder started at once for a physician. It seems that Mrs. Shuder was a little bit suspicions about her husband's aUVctions for her and for that reason was influenced to commit the rash act Mr. Shuder says there i no ground f r hi9 wife to be jealous of him and he can hardly account for her peculiar notions. They have been married thirty-three years and she is hie eecond wife. She had written the following note: "Dear children and hu?band: Don't blame any lor this act a 1 am tired of life, and I gave my darling. So I bid you all good by Ever vonr wife and mother. Son William is calling me home." It will be remembered that William Shuder committed 6uicide in a cornHeld near Pierceton, last September. He was her stepson, but she evidently thought a great deal of him. Alter being around by the physician she said her eon, Williim, whs in heaven and she wanted to go to meet him. The fact that her stepson committed suicide may have had an evil ir.iluence upon her mind. However, phe is now out of danger. It Was Nut Carrie. The Laporte Herald says that a railway brakeman played a joke on the Argus-Hulletin, of Laporte. by telling that Carrie Nation was on the train. It was not Carrie. The Tribune and Democrat of Plymouth Bwallowed the bait also. As Carrie was supposed to be on the L. 11. Sc W. south bound train on her way to Ft. Wayne, they took it for granted that she changed cars in Plymouth. On the date that phe was supposed to pass through Plymouth according to the unreliable papers of Plymouth, she was extremely elsewhere. Heal naughty brakeman, wasn't he? SiiutHpox in Indiana.

WHAT 1)0 I LIVE FOK?

SUBJECT OF POWERFUL SERMON LAST FRIDAY EVENING. Audience C00111 Not I.arjre l'noiili to .('iiiiini(iiiHtp Kien With tnnliiit; Kooni World Has No for People Who Are Looking for a "Soft Misi." The wonderful enthusiasm that has been cruraeterizing the union gospel meetings is each day increasing. The s-rmQ of Dti ., replete with practical truths, was on "Srrow." Christianity is a tery broad reluioo, so broad that it takes in the hopes and tVars, j s at d sorrows, sin and salva tion in fact, the whole man, both in thi life and the life hereafter. The stoics said, the qualifications of a man wert courage, valor and honesty. Christ s.-ys a christian must not only bn courageous and honest, but he must also h merciful, gentle, tender and compassionate. These qualities of character are perfectly illustrated in the life of our Master, for He could at one moment legislate for a race and at thr- next comfort a weeping child. There are two kinds of sorrow a wordly sorrov and a 'lodlv sorrow. The first is of the world and it worketh death, because it is self-centered; it separates man from his God, just as a physical death separates the spirit from its body. Hut a (I dly sorrow worketh repentance, it is a sorrow in which man sees himself as he is, realizes what he may become, and recognizee the power of God. such a realization is a step heavenward. A true christian is not so much concerned in getting man into heaven as he is in getting heaven into man, for make a man holy and noble and he will get into heaven. Poeaees character and (Jod will care for thy destiny. It is a mean fellow, a little man, that wants to enter heaven because he thinks it is a place where he may indulge his lazziness but a good man, a great soul longs for heaven because here a man eerves (Jod niiht and dav. "Soul Winning," a beautiful theme, so full of inspiration, was the bubject of the talk of the afternoon. A most remarkable sermon of joy and hope tor the aged was delivered that morning by the evangelist. That beautiful psalm, the twenty-third, was read and analizd, Mr. Ostrom bringing out the comforting thoucht that he who is spiritually minded can never want, neither in this life nor in the next, for (Jod is with him. At 4:1") o'clock Friday afternoon there was held at the Methodist church a service for the boys arid girls. Rev. Ostrom delivered a powerful and appealing sermon upon, "What do 1 live for?'' Friday evening and it was productive of much good. It wakened the aspirations of many a young person, by bringing him to the realization, that the man who lives only for self, is not really living; and it inspired not a few with life's true meaningthat he who truly lives has a (Jod like purpoee in life. When a ship sets sail it has a destination, and route by which it may reach its destination. Hut how many a life starts out, and never once definitely settles the two questions, "What am 1 here for?" "Where am 1 going?" It is the irony of txistence that we live so awkardly. Though a man has a eplendid social nature and a brilliant intellect, still it he lives only to satisfy his appetites he is merely an animal. The young person who is looking for a "soft snap" in order that he may live almost exclusively for his ease and self indulgence, has within him the characteristics of a gambler; and gambling is wrong because it teachee a person to expect a gieat deal for nothing, thus making a person lazy, and a lazy person is liable to get into mischief, and he who gets into mischief doesn't make a good citizen. The boy or girl who expects to lind in life a "soft snap" hasn't learned the A J C's of what it means to live. A man may rise a step above this type of existence and live for in lluence. Now if he acquires influence that he may exalt himself bring popularity andhonortohisown name, use for self glory what should be dedicated to (Jod, he will Ii. id that all the education has but made him a dupe of his own efforts. You cannot educate a bad man into a good man, it requires something besides knowledge to accomplish the transformation, for to educate a bad man without teaching him of Christ is but to put an implement of evil into his hand. Teach the ignorant man who steals chickens to read and write, without telling him of Jesus and yon may make a forger of him. My all means get an education, learn all you can, develop your intellectual powers to their utmost, but have your education so broad that it will embrace the essential of what it is to live. Jesus Christ is the meaning of life and when a soul becomes melodious with ihis thought, he shall spend not only this life but also eternity in singing back the love of Christ in service and growth, only to get it back again in larger abundance. The talk of Friday afternoon emphasized the two facts, that Christ having conquered death is able to do all and that He brought into the world a new, a divine, a higher life a (Jod life, one in which a man thinks a (lod thinks, feels as (Jod feels and lives as (Jod lives, the onlv difference being man's capacity is finite and God's is infinite. A very interesting children's meeting was held Friday afternoon after school. The Interest and large attendance that have characterized each of the

union gospel meetings were not diminished by the inclement weather of Sunday. The evangelist based his sermon of Mind ay afternoon upon the words, "And ye are not your own." Even in the economic and social woild this statement can be dumonstrated to be a truth, for man of himself cannoteven produce the necet-s tns of life. All have been invested in by o'hers every prophet who ever epnke, every artist who produced a picture.everv musician who gave to the world a eong, all these have lett their impress upon our characters, all these are converging upon a man, trying to make something of him. Man of today is the heir of all the greatness of the p-8t generations. We are indebted not only for satisfaction of our materisl wants, but also for the inner sacrifice that we have cost our friends. Man is a destructive creature, he is hut an aggregation of other people's losses. Though we cost our fellow man eo dearly, stil how much more have we cost Christ, we are not our own, but have been bought bv the blood ot Jesus, we owe all to Him and if we rightfully belong to G0.1, had we not better give ourselves voluntarily to Christy Upon first reading the wordß "And ye are not your own,'' seem arbitary.but in reality they are the logical consequence of tacts as they exist; because man is incapable of self-defense, (Jod is in all the loving kindness of 1 1 is nature, willing to defend him. Christianity is high refinement, heuce a christian loves more sweetly, thinks more nobly and loves more sacrificially than he who has not been transformed by the power of God. The address given Sunday evening by Hv. O. S. Thnrnberry was full of good thoughts. The practical question, "And what will you do with Jesus?' was med as his euhject. he emphasizing the fact that Jesus had done so much for us that surely we ought to gladly give our lives to him. The appropriate solo by Mrs. O. S. Thornberry was beautifully rendered. The evening service at the Presbyterian church was an addrees to men by llev. Ostrom. It was a strong eeruion. He 6aid that man is invisible; the body is u-ed temporarily by man and discarded. Tbe real man lives on. The illustrations used by the evangelist were to the point. He criticized the agnostic, showing how much more exacting he is in testing the christian doctrine than he is in practical afluirs. Christ offers much and only asks in return that you love him as a father and that you call him father. The congregation were reminded that they wield a great inlluence over the young. The boy crosses his legs like hiß father and in vari us ways imitates him. The exam, le of the father determines the career of the boy as to good or evil. It is of geat importance, said the evangelist, that we draw nearer unto (Jod.
