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 urin ates 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.

McConnaiighfy, Manager. Liyery, VACATIONS DO SUCH HARM, DE CLAKBS HUSSKLI SAUK. Russell Sage, In New York Independent, During the eighty-eight years of my career I have not once taken a vacation A young man said to me the other day: "Mr. Sage, would you not have taken vacation if you had worked for some ne else?" Inreplied that I would not. I have never been an advocate what gome term the "vacation habit.' When I was a boy tbe practice was not in vogue. As a matter of fact, I was so glad to get a chance to learn busi nees that the idea ot asking my em ployer to make me a present of two weeks of the time that belonged to him because be bad paid for it would have been preposterous. Besides, I was eager to advance in business, and could not see how I could do this by wasting valuable time. Neither did any of my youthful sociates take vacations, and I am sure you will agree with me that the fac did not retard their progress whea I say that among them were Thurlow Weed tbe king maker; Horace Greeley, Gov ernor Seward and George Jones, the founder of the New York Times. These m?n were constantly at work, and they were history makers. I think the "vacation habit" is the outgrowth of abnormal or distorted business methods. I fail to see any thing legitimate in it. Let us assume than an employer and his clerk make an agreement to ex change just remuneration for reason able services, and each one keeps his part of the agreement. Are they not then quits? If there is any obligation, I think it is on the part of the clerk, who avails of the credit, skill and organi zation of the employer to learn a bmi ness and advance himself along a path which has already been prepared for him. What right has he, then, to de mand or expect pay for two weeks' time for which he renders no equivalent, not considering the serious inconven ience to which he often puts his em ployer? Suppose we were to reverse the con' ventional order of things and, instead of the clerk demanding two weeks' pay gratis, the employer should demand two weeks' work witboul pay as a con dition of retaining the clerk in his em ploy. What a tremendous howl would go up. It may be be urged that the clerk by his vacation gains in health and vigor and is thus enabled to render better ser vice to bis employer. If this claim were true he would be justified in ask ing for a vacation. In fact, he would not have to do so, as his employer would for his own gain and of his own accord send brm away thus to recup erate. But is it not absurd to suppose that a man who can work for eleven and a half months cannot as well work the whole year? Is it Hot equally absurd to suppose that a man can in two weeks recuperate from the wear and tear of a year's work, if there be such wear and tear ? On the contrary, I have too often observed that men will, while on their vacations, make inroads upon their vi tality and purses that cannot be repaired in the following eleven months and two weeks. Then, again, the loss of time, the disorganization of business, that result from the absence of a valuable man from his desk are difficult to repair. A man sometimes must spend weeks catching up with work that has ac cumulated wluie be was away for a fortnight. If a man will only take an interest in his work, love it, be will not need anything else to recupejate him, and men who learn to love their work in variably succeed. ' A man should work "easy," be eco nomical of his time, conserve his forces and not worry. It's worry and not work that makes the hair gray. The doctors may recommend a change of air for a man when he a sick; but why be sick? Sickness is an irreparable loss nf time. If I had a thousand tongues I'd preach "save time" with them all. It's infinitely more valuable than money. We read of Gladstone, who got all the recuperation he needed by simply changing his work. He didn't quit work and go idling about, lime was the most precious thing in the world for him, and by availing of every min ute of it he pratQpally did the work of an army of men.

He has filled position of great honor and trust with distinguished ability. Fol lowing the great Vance as governor in the early days of peace aft the oivil was) when tbe state was yet struggling in poverty, the administration of Gov ernor Jarvis was marked with the real beginning of thrift and successful in dustry among the people of the state. And it is but thegimple truth to say that the aggressive administration of the chief executive's office, backed by a strong mind and almost prophetic view of the future, was the real iin petus ana dominant influence in start' ing the old state forward by leaps and bounds Governor Jarvis is an older man now. retired from politics, but lacking noth ing in interest in public affaire, his judgment sound and sensible. In an interview with The Post's Washington correspondent, published yesterday morning, his views on the political situation rang clear and strong, and will bear repetition here. After declar ing that he favored Judge Tarker for president, and expressing the belief that Parker can be elected, Governor Jarvis Baid : I think ex-President Cleveland would make a stronger run than any other Democrat. The country wants a sane and safe man for the presidency and the people know that Mr. Cleve land is all of that. But his noinina tion is out of the question. Regarding his nomination as impossible, the wise thing to do is to nominate Judge Parker." Governor Jarvis then discussed the means and policies to be employed to insure Democratic success this year, and said : If the Democrats go to St, Louis and adopt a clean cut, conservative platform that appeals to the business men of the country, if the language of the platform is couched so as to command their confidence and can't be misunderstood, if they nominate Parker and some good man from Indf. ana or Illinois on tha ticket with him, then our ticket will triumph in this contest." "What about the Kansas City plat form, governor?" "It has ceased to exist in the minds of North Carolina Democrats. Our platform this year should contain clear cut declaration in favor of tariff reduction-not tariff destruction. Couple with this a clear cut, sensible declara tion against tbe trusts and in favor of economical administration of the gov ernment according to old Democratic principles and business methods." "However, there is no getting away from the fact that Mr. Roosevelt is tbe issue in this campaign. The Demo cratic nominees should be the antithe sis of the president as near as it is pos sible to make him. I think that man is Judge Parker of New York, All of which, upon calm reflection, all Democrats will agree, is pretty good talk Oiled Roaaa a Success la California. San Francisco Chronicle. The success of oiled roads has been proved in Kern county in the last three years, the convenience of tbe petro leum has led to the oiling of no less thsn 145 miles of highway which are now in fine condition for hauling heavy traffic, although many of them were formerly sandy roads that did not permit the transport of more than half an ordinary load without extra teams. The cost of maintenance has been far less than under the old system so that 50 miles of oiled road will be added this year. Saea hy His Doctor. "A doctor here has sued me for $12.50, which I claimed was excessive for a case of cholera morbus," says R. White, of Ooachella, Cul. "At the trial be praised his IRedicai skill and medicine. I asked him if it was not ChamberlaH's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy he used I had (rood reason to believe it wan. and he would not say nnder oath that ft was not." No doctor could use a better remedy than this in a case of cholera morbus, it never fails. Sold by M. L. Marsh.

A Hindrance and a Hurt to New f.n- terprlaes Tlie "liaier" Lawyer." Wilmington Messenger. The Manufacturers' Record, of the 19th instant, quotes from ttie annual report of Pretident Taylor, of the Wil mington chamber of commerce, on the subject of industrial developments in this section and the romlitiotis which militate against them and says by way of commsait : "He added that there was manifest in the community a disposition on the part of certain individuals to fiarass cor porations, and, as was commonly re puted, to bring suits for contingent fees resulting in expensive litigation 4o de fendants. He urged that the com munity's duty was to discourage this disposition, inasmuch as capital would not seek a location where such injuri ous and unjustifiable practice obtains). 'The public have,' he said, 'the matter in their own hands, for obviously con tingent fees are not a very reliable resource. ''That is an excellent suggestion, hicb should be put in practice wher ever the shyster is given a standing in the courts. The liberty allowed many attorneys, who are really ollicers of the court, would, if attempted by the lay man, be properly held to be contempt of court. Communities suffering from shysterism in high or low degree should develop a public sentiment that would forbid a court to submit to contempt from its own officers. With the devel opment of that sentiment would speed ily come a reduction to the minimum of suits against corporations on the contingent fee basis." That the inauguration of new enter prises in tbis state is hindered by the attitude of many of our people toward corporations cannot be denied. There are too many lawyers whdare ever ready to bring suit for damages against cor porations for any kind of an accident. We do not mean to oppose the taking of contingent fees by lawyers. That has become a legitimate feature of the practice, but we do say that lawyers who work up damage Buits againat cor porations should be frowned down by tbe better element in the profession. Capital realizes this condition of affairs and is for this reason Bhy about investigating where such state of feeling exists. We know it to be a fact that not very long ago a very important enterprise contemplated for this Bection of tbe state was given up because the persons who were thinking about getting it up were unwilling to put their money into a corporation under the laws and court rulings of this state. Tbe contemplated concern would have Jeen of great pecuniary benefit to Wilmington. But about the time the enterprise was under contemplation there was a flood of damage suits against corporations in this section and the men at the head of the propose! movement were driven off by fear of lack of appreciation by the people and a rush of damage suits on trivial pretexts against the corporation. So they abandoned the scheme. The New Orleans 4.ltJ. National Magazine.

J HEARST QUITS UIVINC1. mother of (Editor Withdraws support Prom Kindergarten College. Washington Dispatch. Educational circles lvere are greatly exercised over the sudden and unlooked-for announcement that Mrs. Phoebus A. Hearst has withdVawn her bounty to tbe Kindergarten college in this city which bears her name, and all other local charities in which she was jpuch a liberal contributor, Tbe reason given isehat her "income is not suffici ent to justify a continuance of her donations." For the past eight years the Phoebe Hearst Kindergarten college has been maintained in this city by the individ ual aid of Airs. Hearst. The amount was tlO.000 a year. This sum has been sufficient to sustain a mpdern kinder garten institution in the fashionable section of the city. In addition classes of instruction for young cliil dren, a training school for teachers has been one of tbe features of tbis estab lishment. Young woman anxious become teachers in kindergarten schools have come here from all parts of the country to take the admirable course instruction at the Phoebe Hearst college. Ninety per rent, of the teachers in the public school kindergarten grades are graduates from the Hearst college. The withdrawal of Mrs. Hearst's nanciul supiort from thiBiustitution and all other local charities on the ground that her income was not sufficient enable her to continue her noble work a work in which she had previously snown so mucn interest was a severe shock to her friends in Washingto and a stunning- blow to the kinder garten system as taught at tbe Hearst college. A committee was immediately appointed to hasten to New York and confer with Mrs. Hearst on the subject prior to her departure for Europe. She received the committee graciously, bat tearfully, and informed her callers that her decision was final. No further explanation is offered by confidential friends and the representa tives of the Hearst estate. Mrs. Hearst has gone to Europe and the incident apiiears to be closed so far as Bhe concerned. One of the mysterious fea tu res of Mrs. Hearst's unexpected re tirement from philanthropic work at the national capital is that she spent several weeks here recently. At that time she attended a formal reception given in her home at the college and she made no mention of her intention to withdraw her support from the in stitution. Ouly a few days prior to her sailing for Europe she notified the man agers of the Hearst college that her ai to that institution was at an end. His Shattered Belief. "Why, Joshua, what are you ing?" say. "I don't believe in the Bible, and there's no use of me pretendin' that I do. Them's my Ben ti menu.

When his horrified wife could get her breath, says the Chicago Record Herald, she asked: "Have you been readiu'. any of them college professors articles about not be- lievin' Jonah could live in tbe whale or got down its throat?" "Nope, I ain't much acquainted with whales, and I'm willin' to believe that maybe Jonah might of got swallowed and come up again all 0. K., but my old belief's gone forever, just the same.' "I s'pose you don't think that rod what Moees had could have turned into a serpent?" "Don't you believe Daniel's friends could of stood it in the fiery furnace?'

Marslivllle Home "I wish you d fix me a good up tor date form of proposal, one that will not apnear kwkwaM or timid," said a con firmed old bachelor to Our Home man the other day. Never mind about the Worm you use. Our experience in that line of buisiness is limited (we never proposed tfjf any but one), but we can assure the young fellows who are bent on matrimony that if they want to get married the average young lady will not be slow to understate what they mean, and they are not so particular about its being done in the latest style. It is more a question with them as to whether you mean what you say than how you say it. About forty or fifty years sgo a young man in this part of the country was call ing on a young lady one Sunday night and he became interested enough to her. She asked him to give her a little time to consider the matter and told him she would give him. an answer the next time he came, and this was, of course, agreeable to him. The next time he called they sat and talked and talked, but he didn't refer to his pro- posal or mention it in any way. Fi nally as the hours grew late she became a little impatient and said: "Mr. , about that matter you men tioned to me Sunday night I reckon I'll have to decline your proposal." With a pleasant look and polite man ner, he said: "Why, I'm mighty glad you mentioned it. I never would have thought of it any more. That's all right, madam, all right, thank you The Polite Baboo. Here is a characteristic bit of baboo English written by one who wanted holiday : "Most Kxalted bir It is with most habitually devout expressions of my most sensafive respect that I approach the clemency of your masterfull posi tion with the self-depraising utterance of my esteem, and the also forgotten- by-myself assurance that in my own mind 1 shall be freed from tbe assump tion that I am asking unpardonable donations if I assert that I desire short respite from my exeitions indeed a fortnight's holiday, as I am suffering from three boils, as per margin. 1 have the honerable delight of subscrib ing myself your exalted reverence's servitor. X." Apparently the young man feared that his touching and humble epistle would not suffice. In the margin he had drawn a rough but graphic picture, showing the location of the three boils upon his person. Japaneae Christianity Many of the prominent men of Japan are Christians. Among the number are one member of tbe immediate cabinet, two judges of tbe Supreme courts; two presidents of tbe the lower house of Parliament, and three vice-ministers of state, not to mention a host of officials of lower rank. In the present Parlia ment the president and 13 members in a total membership of 300 are Chris tians. In the army there are 155 Christian ollicers, or three per cent, of all, and the two largest battleships are commanded by Christians. A rosily mistake. Blunders are sometimes very expen sive.
