was not one fourth that of yester

was euded at 4 o'clock, and the er

At that time the justice reodered bi

How to Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
bour$: a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of tbe kid
ueys. When urine stains linen it is
positive 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.

der and everv iart of tbe urinary
passages. It corrects inability to bold
urine ami scalding pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that un
pleasant necessity of being compelled

extraordinary effect of Swamp Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest

distressing cases. If you need a medi

lenver Times.
If Jobn Caruthers, merchant and
capitalist of Butler, Mo., ever comes
visitiDg to Denver again he will
doubtless first observe the precaa
tion of doing one or tb.9 other of
two things: He will either supply
himself with an artificial front tooth,
or he will loop up his lips in such a
manner that the Denver detectives
can explore tbe innermost recesses
of bis mouth without a jimojv and a
daik lantern to do it.
Mr. Caruthers' strange and un
pleasant esperieuce with the dettc
tives occurred last night at the
union depot, just ss he was boardiug

man would probably apply at 9
