Women as Well as Men
Are Made Miserable by
Kidney Trouble.
Kidney trouble preyi upon the mind, dis
courages and lessens em billon; beauty, vigor
ana cneonuiness soon
disappear when the kid
neys are out 01 oraer
"or diseased...
Kidney Sbuble has
become so prevalent
I that it is not uncommon
lor a child to be born
3 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
me aimcuity 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 wd not to a habit
most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made mis
erable with kidney and bladder tfuble
and both need the same great remedy.
The mild and the Immediate effect of

Beforriog to the decision of -Igplge
mtcnara in tbe JJaniels-r urnell conM
tempt case, the Wilmington Messenger
ays:
"This decision should Dot relieve edi
ton from the obligation which always
rests upon them to treat with respect
the judges of our courts and to be gen'
tlemanly and dignified in their criti
cisms of the official acta ofejuch men
Editors should recognize and Observe
the difference between legitimate criti'
cum r a man s official acta and per
sonal abuse and villification. Because
it baa been decided that a newspaper
article, no matter how severe or per'
sonal, regarding the conduct of a judge
is not contempt is no reason why edi
tors should indulge in such style of
criticism. We do think that certain
newspapers in this State have in tbe
past gone too "far in their criticism of
public officers. They sometimes fail to
recognize the difference between criti
cierrof the official acta of a man in office
and denunciation and abuse of the man
personally. We hope this case which
has given such prominence and ha
attracted so much attention to the ques
ticn of contempt by editors will have a
salutary effect and that it will result in
a more dignified and conservative treat
ment by some of our editors of public
officials.
''Before this decision was made the
press had all the liberty it needed for
protecting the rights of the people and
inveighing against the encroachments
of the judges upon those rights. The
liberty of the press was in no danger
before this decision and has not been
made any greater by it, for it had all
the liberty it was entitled to before the
decision was made. Neither now or
then should any editor fear punish
ment for legitimate and proper con
demnation of the acta of a judge or
any other State or Federal official."
The Landmark has on occasion in'
dulged in criticism of judges and courts,
and if it has at any time overstepped
the bonds it accepts in good part what'
ever 01 tne Messenger s remarks may
apply to it, for the Messenger is right
in the position it takes in the foregoing.
We very much fear that the recent do
cisions of the courts which decisions
we hold are proper and right will have
a tendency to cause some newspapers
to go beyond proper and legitimate
bounds in criticism; to cause the liberty
of the press in some instances, to de
generate into license.
Overmatched ay a Woman.
The late W. W. Corcoran, the mil
lionaire philanthropist of Washington,
who gave to the city the magnificent
art gallery which bears bis name, was
very fond of telling how he was once
overmatched by a wealthy maiden lady
from whom he desired to purchase a
piece of property.
Mr. Corcoran was the owner of the
Arlington Hotel, at the corner of Ver
mont AvenueVnd H Street. Adjoin
ing the hotel property on the H Street
side was a handsome brownstone man
sion, owned by the maiden lady. The
lot upon which the house was built
extended back to I Street, a distance of
four hundred feet, and abutted on the
rear of the hotel property.
Mr. Corcoran found it necessary to
enlarge the hotel, and with this end in
view desired to purchase the ear end
of tbe lot owned by the maiden lady.
As she was very wealthy, he knew that
large price would not be any special
inducement, and for a time was at a
loss to know exactly bow to approach
her. He finally concluded to go
straight to the point, and therefore ad
dressed her the fol'owing note:
'-near Mia. IT ITm Hiirn will vnn
take for your bac yard J "We, wish to
nlarge the Arlington Hotel. Yours
sincerely, "W. W. Cofcoras."
rromptly came tbe reply:
"Dear Mr. Corcoran: How much
will you take for the Arlington Hotel?
We wish to enlarge ir back yard.

PLANT KHaklEs COST mlLLIONS.
The destruction wrought on crops by
the countless plant enemies throughout
the country is mealed by a report
issued by the department of agriculture
on "plant diseases in 1903."
Besides the mass of detail regarding
conditions in the United States proper,
it shows that the coffee leaf blight has
accidentally been introduced in Forto
Rico and measures are being taken to
stamp it out. Cocoa in Porto Rico is
affected by a black pod rot canker and
root disease.' The tomato blight has
practically ruined the tomato crop of
Porto Rico. A potato rot has caused
the loss of nearly the entire potato
crop. Orange scab has caused consid
erable damage in the Bayamon district.
Tbe cotton root rot in Texas pre
vailed to a greater extent than for many
years, the loss being estimated at about
$2,000,000.
Anthranaose has been greatly pre
valent from North Carolina to Georgia
and locally injurious, especially to sea
island cotton In south Georgia. Wilt
has spread slowly and now occurs in
limited areas in North Carolina and
South Carolina and is widely prevalent
in south Georgia and southeastern
Alabama, in connection with the root
knot. Rust occurred as usual on the
poorer soils and was unusually severe in
Texas.
The potato blight and rot caused
widespread destruction. The damage
is estimated at $10,000,000 for the
season in New York alone. Crown gall
is becoming more serious every year
as a nursery pest throughout the
country. Strawberry leaf blight is less
prevalent.
Dieback among the citrous fruit dis
eases in Florida is less destructive than
before 1903, Corn smut caused heavy
loss in Maryland and was common in
New York. Corn leaf blight was gen
eral in Connecticut, Delaware, eastern
Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Rice
blast was prevalent in the Cooper river
sections of South Carolina, where the
crop was over 1UU,UUU busbels snort.
The loss from tb,e spread of this disease
in the past six years is estimated at
$1,000,000.
Watermelon wilt is spreading in the
south and cantaloupe leaf blight was
injurious, especially in the south, the
loss in Florida being 40 per cent,
Tomato bacterial wilt was widespread in
the south. The fusariuru wilt in Flor
ida caused a loss of $500,000 and large
areas of land also had to be thrown
out of cultivation. Cucumber downy
mildew caused large losses in Florida
and the trucking section near Charles'
ton, S. C, where the estimated loss was
$100,000,
Apple scab was much less Injurious
in New England, New York and Penn
sylvania and Michigan than last year,
but it seems to have been more de'
structive in the west.
Pear blight was more than usually
prevalent this year in the east. In
the south it is universal, and little
effort is made to control it. There
was an epidemic of pear leaf blight
that defoliated trees from Maryland
southward. -
Brown rot was again lees injurious in
the eastern states, but was very destruc
tive to southern peaches, the loss
amounting to from 30 to 60 per cent, of
the crop in Georgia.
Shot His Brother D'lad.
Charlotte, N. C. June, 13. Alex
ander Sikes, a young man seventeen
years old, was instanly killed by bis
little five-year old brother this afternoon
at Highland Park mills. The two boys
were watching some other boys throw
horse shoes. Henry Sikes, the five-
year-old boy, held a shot gun when it
was discharged and the entire load took
effect in Alex Sikes's left side. Several
of the shot must have passed through
the heart as the boy died instantly.

HIGHER EDUCATION AND MATERNITY.
Atlanta Constitution.
At the convention of the Amenaan
Medical Association, lately in session
at Atlantic City, N. J., a distinct sen
sation was created by a paper. read by
Dr. A. Lipthom Smith, of Montreal, in
which he denounced in strong language
the higher education of girls, on the
ground that it unfit them for domestic
life.
The Montreal physician, who stands
high in his profession, internationally,
holds that higher education for women
is "unwise and unjustifiable because it
makes the duties and privileges of
motherhood distasteful." In his paper
he declared that the health of American
girfl is not as good as was that of their
mothers and grandmothers, at the same
age, and added:
For these conditions we must blame
the over-education of women.' The
blood that is necessary f Jr her body is
diverted to her brain. If children
come to these highly educated women,
they are usually few in number and
physically or mentally deficient. The
phosphates that should be in their littie
bodies have been stolen to fit out tbe
brains of their mothers.
I would have girls taught the same
elements in the same manner and to
the same degree as bote, but I would
cut out algebra, astronomy and alf the
higher subjects. In their stead I would
substitute outdoor sports, cooking, sew
ing and care of the child. 1 would
give girls frequent vacations and would
advise early marriages. If the breed
that now dominates this continent is to
live, it must begin, and that soon, the
sensible, practical training of its girls.
If the starvation and mortification of
the flesh for the exaltation of the spirit
shall continue, the righteous sentence
of death will be inexorably executed.
Now, let us hear from the women's
clubs!
Tbe convention before which Dr.
Smith made prominent his radical
views was attended by fully 3,000 dele
gates, representing every state in the
union, including physicians prominent
in Germany, Austria, Cuba, the South
American republics and Canada. It is
said that many of tbe delegates agreed
with the Canadian physician, and the
subject he discussed promises to become
a bone of professional controversy, with
no end of lay discussion.
We may now expect to hear th
knowing ones "smoke up" strain th
great question of race suicide.

Charlotte, N. C, June 13. Post
maste R. W. Smith has recommended
John E. Walker, colored, for appoint'
ment to a position as clerk in the Char
lotte postoffice. ' The recommendation
was forwarded to the Postoffice Depart.
ment Saturday, and since the recom
mendation is tantamount to an appoint
ment, the colored man will go on duty
tomorrow night. He will go to work as
a night clerk, at a salary of $600 a year,
working with white clerks.
Mr. Jake F. Newell, chairman of the
Mecklenburg county Republican exec
utive committee, and the Republican
Candida for Congress in this district,
deplores the action of Postmaster Smith
in recommending a negro for appoint'
ment as clerk in the Charlotte post
office, saying: "The Republican party
of Mecklenburg county does not stand
for tbe action of Postmaster Smith in
appointing a negro to a position in the
postoffice when there were eligible white
men anxious for the job." ,

A Hunlan Expert Oa Prospects of
Port Arthur's Capture.
St. Petersburg Dispatch.
General Parinzoff, military writer for
the army organ, The Invalid, inter
fviewed on the possibilities oi Port
Arthur being taken by assault, says :
"The question appears unnecessary.
The feat is almost impossible."
In bis opinion Port Arthur can hold
out at least five months, having pro
visions for that period. As for the
statement that the ships are short of
fuel', he says the coal supply js colossal.
The idea voiced by General Panozoff is
widely held here.
The combined persistent advance by
the northern forcesf the Japanese has
given rise to the theory that General
Kuroki may be intending a grand at
tempt to cause General Kuropatkin to
retire before a sweeping enveloping
movement, as foreshadowed in the tak
ing of Saimateza simaltaneously with
the occupation of Siu Yen. It is being
pointed out that the taking of Saimatsza
means that Motien 'Pass, so strongly
held by the Russians, has been turned
The whole idea of forcing General
Kuropatkin to give battle under uufa
vorable circumstances, with the alter
native of retiring, is to give ample time
to tbe Japanese forces in the Kwan
Tung Peninsula to starve the Fort
Arthur garrison into surrender, thus
avoiding the enormous loss of life, with
a doubtful result, which an attempt at
taking tbe place by assault mean,
and before which the eminent Jap
anese military advisers of the Mikado
recoil.
General Kuroki's combined forcesare
slowly pushing forward, building roads
as they go.
It is now ascertained that the Jap
anese have twelve divisions of their
active army in the field, which are
added to by a considerable portion of
the reserve, make a total approaching
300,000 men.

DO YOU NEED A
MEDICINE?
ITtOSTS rOUHOTHINO TO INVESTItATE.
There is no one who does not need
Liver Medicine occasionally.
The symptoms of Liver Complaint are
wen snown 10 everv one. such as consti
nation, dyspepsia, loss of aonetite. sleeo
lessness, headache, a tired feeling and
many others of a similar nature.
Thousands die annually by not heeding
me warnings 01 naiure.
Many acquire some chronic disease
from which they never recover.
Many of these could be snared for years
of usefulness, by keeping in the home
some reiiaDie remedy.
We believe that we can convince any
fair-minded person that there is no bet
ter remedy for the Liver known, than
Dr. inacber's Liver and Blood Syrup.
The formula is known, consisting of:
BiK-liu, Hydrangea, Mandrake, Yellow
Dock, Dandelion, Sarsaparilla, Gentian,
Senna and Iodide of Potassium. You
know just what you are taking. How
many other formulas of a liver medicine
are publisned t Ask your druggist about
this. It is already prepared and can be
taken immediately.
The strength is extracted in the most
skillful manner, certainly superior to any
powdered preparation known. ( We also
manufacture a Liver Medicine in tow
dered form, with which any druggist can
supply you, but this, like all other dry
Liver Medicines requires preparation. )
Dr. Inacner s Liver snd Blood byrup
pleasant to take, does not lose its
strength, as Liver Medicine in dry form,
and will keep ingany climate.
Your doctor, nowever skillful, could
prescribe nothing better.
There is no opportunity for a doctor
to make a mistake in writing a prescrip
tion, or a drug clerk to make a mistake
in compounding the same, (besides a
doctor's bill and the cost of the medi
cine.) You can be absolutely sure of the
ffoper proportion beingju every dose.
