Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys ll tbe chief cause or bladder troubles. So tbe womb, like tbe bladder, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is uot liable to weaken or disease, except In rare cases, it is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or iucouvenleuce mani fested ui the kidneys, back, bladder or uuluary passage is often, by mistake, at tiibuted to female weakness or womb tioubie of some sort.

The hardest word to define in the English language is the word "Demo crat. It is said that foreigners who come to America find their greatest trouble in learning our language in the faot that the same word can mean so many different things. For instance, there is the word "well. " It can be used in three or more different ways for example, as an interjection, "Weill is that so?" as an adverb, "The man who was siok is well," and as a noun, "Get me a drink of cool water from the well." Such as this mixes a foreigner up. It is even hard for native born Americans sometimes to nse the right word in the right place. They aro finding mnoh trouble in this regard at present with the word Demo crat. Mr. Grover Cleveland ia a Demo crat. Hon. John G. Carlisle is a Demo crat Mr. Hill of New York has said, "I am a Demoorat" Messrs. P. Wat Hardin and J. O. S. Blackburn are Demoorats. Mr. Ben D. Bingo, a for mer editor of The Herald, is a Demo crat Mr. Heber Matthews, who now edits The Herald, is a Democrat. But we find among these men differences of opinion on important issues. They rep resent all sorts' of ideas and opinions and yet are Democrats. What is a Demoorat anyhow? Let us see. The Democratic platform adopted at Chicago resulted in a split in the Democratic party. As a result large numbers of sound money Democrats supported Major McKinley either di reotly or indirectly. Sound money Dem oorats agreed with the Republicans as far as finances were ooncerned. What next? We now find in the Unit ed States senate many Demooratio sena tors who are willing to vote for a pro tective tariff on wool, sugar and cotton. The protective tariff policy of the Re publican party is being indorsed by Democratic United States senators. We are also informed by the Protec tive Tariff league that many Democratic papers throughout the Routh aro de manding tariff literature papors that once wero insulting to tho league be cause it offered them such literature. Largo numbers of Democrats, therefore, are standing on the financial and tariff planks of tho Republican party. This is fiot all. Tho Populists at pres et are engaged iu a hitter fight to keep the Democrats from crowding them off their platform. If tho Populists do not keep in the middle of the road, it is only a matter of time until Populists will have to get down on their knees before the Democrats and pray, ' 'Pleuse, friendly Democrnts, can we get up on onr platform?" In view of the facts, it appears that a Democrat cun be anything and every thing. We therefore give this definition of the word "Democrat:" A Democrat is a being of the human species who has no defined views on politioal issues; a being whose privilege it is to believo in and advocate any principle that will land him in office, no matter how great or small "anything, O Lord, no mat ter how small.
