HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.

WHAT TO DO.

There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's SwampRoot, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinatei. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root Is wton realised. It stands the highest for Its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle ami pamphlet both sent free by mail, upon receipt of three two-cent stamps to cover cost of post Age on the boitie.

Slower* In' History.

Flowers have always played a great part in the world'ash istory. They have done so ever sinoe the days of the Planfcagenets, when a king took a sprig of yellow broom "to live and to die with my name." The rose of England, the lilies of France—what wild passions and fierce conflicts have not these innocent blossoms raised 1 And then the violet Surely it was the irony of fate that wove this emblem of humility into the proud destinies of the French empire— a forecast perhaps of the tragedies to oome. The Empress Eugenie wore them on her bridal day they fell thick and fast on the prince imperial's pall. They were laid on the last resting place of England'8 beloved ''Princess Mary," sent with these words, "Souvenir d'nne tendre amitie," from the Empress Eugenie herself.

A Latin poem of the sixteenth century has a pretty legend of a violet that, in mythological days, was a maiden called Ian this, one of Diana's nymphs. She attracted the attention of Apollo, whose admiration she did not return, and, flying from his pursuit, she implored Diana to destroy the beauty which occasioned her so mnch trouble. Diana granted hear request and turned her face to a dull purple. Ian this, however, soon regretted the loss of her beauty and was pining away with grief, when the goddess had pity on her and changed her into a flower, which still shrinks from Apollo (the sun) and hides her modest head in the shade hence perhaps the French "po» sie," which often accompanies the violet (used as a seal or ring ornamentation), •'II faat me chercher."—Gentlewomen.

AMUSEMENTS.

'J1.: the elks' minsxhels. The best entertainment ever given by the local lodge of Elks, and one of the cleverest ever given- by home talent was the minstrel performance at the Grand on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. It went with the vim and push of a professional performance, and was enthusiastically received by the large crowds in attendance at both performances. Miss Jfellie Parrott, with her brother Will, who was one of the end men, made the hit of the performance with a few cake walk steps in the first part, accompanying his song, "The Warmest Baby in the Bunch." She received a large number of floral offerings the second night. In the cake walk with which the performance ended, Ralph Robinson and Frank Ryan. The second night the judge decided the latter couple to be the winners, and they were awarded the handsome cake donated by the Miller Bros. Baking Co. The Elks will realize in the neighborhood of $600 on their entertainment.

ROBERT DOWNING.

Robert Downing, the well-known and popular young American tragedian, who appears at the Opera House to-night in "The Gladiator," is thus described by Chas. Barron, of the Chicago Inter-Ocean: "A man to whom nature has given the proportions of an athlete, the symmetry of a Greek statue, and the strong propulsion of a bright, clear and wide intellgence, represents a force, which in the theater world, c&apels admiration. A picture of manhood in physical development. full-chested, broad shouldered, muscled like a Hercules, a fine head, well poised on a sturdy neck, a handsome face, smooth under the touch of youth, but given character by dark eyes that catch their expression from passing thoughts of troubled passion a voice of great depth and volume and resonance, yet musical, and at will tenderly pathetic." 80USA'8 CONCERT.

Pending his forthcoming great European concert tour, which opens in Paris, June 1st, John Philip Sousa is presenting a full band of sixty players in about twenty cities of the country, one of which is Terre Haute. Their appearance here will be to-morrow evening, and the event is one of extraordinary character. Although the concert is on Sunday evening, Mr. Sousa has so carefully arranged it that it must meet the approval of every lover of music in the city. It is of the choicest character, filled with musical features that observe rather than desecrate the day. The music is all of an elevated and exceedingly dignified character. The programme in full is as follows: 1. Overture—"Tannahauser" Wagner 2. Trombone Solo—Air and Varlations.. Pryor

THE MURRAY COMEDY CO.

Next week marks an event in the history of the opera house. The Murray Comedy Company, with seventeen of the best people that money and careful management can secure, including Vivian Patee and Harry Stanley, will produce a number of new plays, with special scenery and new music throughout. Stately Vivian Patee, late of the Merry World, and jovial Harry Stanley, also of the New York Casino Company, are delighting audiences everywhere, while the supporting company numbers such well and favorably known artists as Mina Gennel, Lettie Colton, jFrank Robinson and many others, including the famous Litchfields. The sale of seats, denotes immense business for the week. ..

American Securities Abroad. The sales of American securities have been, according to London advices, very large abroad of late. If this state of things holds, there will be an increasing influx of British gold into this market. This demonstrates the faith abroad in the stability of our credit. There is another point of faith for which the people not only of this but foreign countries have good grounds for credence, and that is belief in the efficacy of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters for inorganic maladies which affect the stomach, liver, bowels, kidneys and nerves. Dyspepsia, biliousness, constipation and rheumatism are conquered by it. It hastens convalescence, and diffuses a generous warmth and sensation of physical comfort through the system.

JRevlval of an Ancient Jcat. The ancient jest regarding the ditto sign was revived in Cleveland not long ago, and it loses little of its sparkle be cause of its age.

Into the office of a local manufactur ing concern, whose product is wire and wire hardware specialties, an elderly cn8tomer from ont of town recently stalked. "ThlB here Mil," be remarked, "is wrong. You've added where you should have subtracted." "How's that?" inquired the bookkeeper. "You've got me charged with fSd when I don't owe you but $12," replied the stranger. "But I don't see how you make that ont," said the bookkeeper as he glanced at the bill. "Here's one item of $16 and another of $4. That certainly aggregates $20." "Well," said the aged party, "I'm perfectly willing to stand by the bill. It's your own bill, you know, and I'll pay you just what it calls for." "Well, it calls for $20." "Yes, it does, added, but not subtracted." •i "What in the world do you mean?" "I mean this," said the aged patron. And he spread the bill flat on the counter. The bookkeeper glanced at it again. a re it re a "Bold to Mr. Phineas T. Blank: 4 iron wheelbarrows at 14 18 1 wooden do at $4 4 §5, i"

A Cnrloas Legal Decision,

The following aneodote is sent by a Kentucky correspondent, who says it is the exact truth: "A young man who had not found it convenient to pay a tailor's bill was brought up on a creditor's bill by the cruel tailor before a very kind hearted vice chancellor, who liked the youth. He was handsomely dressed and wore a costly diamond stud in his shirt bosom, but declared under oath that he had no property except his wearing apparel. The tailor's lawyer claimed that a diamond stud was not an artiole of exempt apparel aud naked for its surrender, but the judge ruled that the diamond button held the parts of the shirt together and its removal would lead to indeoent exposure of the person. Then the lawyer urged that the shirt was of a new kind whioh buttoned in the back, but the judge met this by saying: 'The presumption of the law is tljat shirts button in front, and the court does not judicially know that shirts ever button in the baok. The oourt will not require the defendant to submit to an examination to rebut the presumption.' And so the diamond remained in the bosom Which oherished it."

Etiquette at Nice.

One feature of life on the Riviera that particularly strikes the sojourner from this side of the Atlantic is the utter absenoe of the piazza life that is suoh an institution at American summer and winter resortB. A recent visitor at Nice writes to the New York Times: "A man way show himself here on the Promenade des Anglais, either on foot or in ooach, within certain well defined hours and with well understood restrictions as to his costume, but he must under no circumstances be seen sitting in front of his own dwelling, be it villa or hotel. The front of the premises must be clean and well kept, with as many plants and flowers as you like, but.there must be no array of comfortable chairs and little tables, as we have them, or any other outward sign, in fact, that some one lives within and some one who knows how to take life comfortably. To sit in front of a hotel here after breakfast, smoking the cigar of contentment, would be a brazen defiance of all social usages."

How He Shot.

Texas military company was out on the range practicing at rifle shooting. The lieutenant in command suddenly became exasperated at the poor shooting, and seizing a gun from one of the privates cried sharply: "I'll show you fellows how to shoot."

Taking along aim, and a strong aim, and an aim altogether, he fired and missed. Coolly turning to the private who owned the gun, he said: "That's the way you shoot."

He again loaded the weapon and missed. Turning to the second man in the ranks, he remarked: "That's the way you shoot"

In this way be missed about a dozen times, illustrating to each soldier his personal incapacity, and finally he accidentally hit the target. "And that," he ejaculated, handing the gun back to the private, "is the way I shoot."—Los Angeles Express.

The latest census of Egypt shows that the country is about the only one in the world where the men are in a majority over the women. The male sex in the khedive's dominions exoeeds the female by 160,000, and it is curious to note that this numerioal predominance of the male is very evenly spread over both upper and lower Egypt. It is only in the sparsely peopled and newly recovered province of Dongola that the women are more numerous than the men. Another interesting faot is that the proportion of Egyptian women knowing how to read and write is just a little over one half per cent.—New Orleans Pioayune.
