Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney and Bladder Trimble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lessen s ambition; beauty, j.. vigor and cheerfulmm ness soon disappear when the kidneys are SB*ma Mil1'*out ord^r or dis_ Kidney trouble has 1J become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be b?rn afflicted with LSm weak kidneys. If the child urinates tooorten, 11 trie unne scaxus 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. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.

Sutcliffe.] ? ?I beg pardon," said a well j dressed lady as she softly enI tered Major Crofoot's office the : other morning as he sat with his feet on his desk and the stub of a cigar in his mouth. "And excuse me, madapa?excuse me." replied the major as he threw away the stub, dropped his feet and whirled around. "I am engaged in a mfssion of charity, and I hope you will see your way clear to subscribe to it. We wish to add a nursery to an orphan asylum. It will cost a lot of money, and I am one of the committee appointed to raise it. Here is my book." "I see," mused the major, as he looked it over. "Madam, your .object is a praiseworthy one, and I shall be glad to aid it. I was left an orphan myself "CAN JQV HAND MC THE BALANCE, PLEASE?" When only two years old, and you can believe that I have a feeling for them. Yes, my father and mother were gored to death by a -bull when I was hardly more than an infant." "How sad!" sighed the lady as she took the seat motioned her. "But life is full of just such sad cases, madam. We have the poor orphans with us, and they must be cared for. How many are there in the asylum you represent?" "Over 200, and we have to turn 'away many applicants." "Well, we must attend to that. Your calling here this morning is what may be termed a curious coincidence. I am Major CTofoot, grand promoter of Various 'enterprises, and what may be called a humanitarian originator. Not an hour ago I received a charter for the incorporation of the Great American Orphan Consoler company, and this afternoon I am to v::sit two orphan asylums to explain the workings of the invention. It is strange that you should have eome in on orphan asylum business as you did." "And have you got something for the orphans?" she asked. "The greatest, grandest, newest thing out, madam. Patented in America and all foreign countries. We begin the manufacture next week. President Roosevelt takes the first three machines. Then comes the new president of France, and he is followed by the emperor of Russia and the king of England. I, as the inventor of the machine .and the president of the company, am feeling rather buoyant. Have you a head for machinery, madam?" "I am afraid not, and yet I hope you will try to make me understand." "Only too happy to do so. Let me start out by saying that orphan children get hungry as well as the other class." "Certainly.'" "They also have colic." "Yes." "They also need to be spanked occasionally. I am not an advocate of the ? bootjack and ,hairbrush, but as an orphan child myself I remember that there were days when I actually longed to be spanked and wouldn't be good till I got it. Among the 200 children in your asylum there must be many such." "Perhaps," replied the lady in a doubtful way. "It takes a nurse at least ten minutes to feed an orphan kid," continued the major as he walked back and forth. "Three feeds a day means thlr-, ty minutes for each child. You must have a nurse for every twenty children. You have ten at least in your asylum. If these could be dispensed with, look at the saving." "But how can they be dispensed with?" was asked. "The children must be washed, dressed, bathed and fed, and human hands must do It. They must also be attended to when ailing." "Twenty years ago all dishes were washed by banq^ Then a genius inrented a machine that does the work of fifteen women. I am a genius. 1 have invented something that knocks the dishwasher silly." "And you propose to take care of children by machinery!" gasped the lady. "You hare struck it, madam. It can be done, as I have successfully demonstrated. My invention is a system of pipes, tubes, spankers and levers, all worked by the same dynamo. We will say it is morning. The children must be washed. Very well. By turning a switch each and every one of them is dumped into a trough and washed and bathed. Turn another switch and they are dumped out. Their clothes are there ready to put on, and machinery does it. Every garment is buttoned up and hooked up. The children now want breakfast. All they have to do is to hold their mouths to certain spouts. There is warm milk, cold milk, porridge and so on and so forth. If one of them wakes up with colic there is the paregoric spout. If one is aching for a spanking you turn a switch that cuts out the others. If all are aching, let 'er go as she is. This invention, madam, does everything but take the children out to walk. It will save its cost every three months. Doesn't eat anything, never talks back and never goes on a strike. Always licks the children on the right spot, and there are no splinters to fly off and put out the cat's eye." "It must surely be a wonderful thing," said the lady as the major paused for breath. "It "will be so pronounced, madam. You called to get a subscription. If I should give you a hundred dollars you would think ft liberal. I propose to give you better than Sve thousand. I shall at once install one of my consolers in your orphan asylum as a free gift" "You are indeed a liberal man, but"? "You are thinking it may not work, madam. Have no fear of that. It has been tested in three different asylums, and they are charmed with it. Only two persons needed to take care of 200 orphans. Runs night and day. and a musical attachment goes with it to lull the red headed babies to sleep on windy nights. I will give the order at once, madam, and"? "What is it?" "I am sorry to say that it is the rule of the company that the asylums pay the drayage. That will he $4; but, having been an orphan myself, 1 will pay in half. Can you hand me the balance, please?" "But I hardly see," said the lady as she opened her purse. "Drayage, madam?drayage. The machinery must be got from our factory to your asylum, you see. That's itthanks. The consoler shall be ready at the earliest possible moment. Say nothing to any one, please, but let it come as a great and pleasant surprise to the orphans. Is there anything more?" "But I have paid you $2." "Exactly, madam?exactly. You have nnid one-half the dravnsre. and the fact shows what a philanthropic heart you have got. I have no doubt you would have paid ten had I suggested it. The orphans can never be grateful enough to you. And now, madam?and now, as I wish to get to the factory as soon as. possible?and give in the order.?and , make the dear children happy?and good day, madam, good day!" As the major tallied he stepped on the lady's toes and forced her backward, and before she was aware of the fact she was out in the hall and his door shut. She went dowmstairs with a puzzled and disturbed 'look on her face and carried it for two blocks. Then she set her jaw and retraced her steps. She knocked on the door, but there was no answer. She put her ear to the panel and listened, but not a leaf stirred. She rattled the knob and put in several kicks, and she might have pounded with her fists had not a boy come out from an office and said; "it you are looking for the grand promoter you arc wasting your time." "But he -v^as here a minute ago. He got $2 from rae." "Only two? Say, you got off lucky. He generally gets at least fifty. No use waiting. He took a skate out the back way a minute before you came up." M. QUAD. It is a well known medical fact that pine rosin is most effective in the treatment of diseases of the bladder and kidneys.

The Anderson Mail yesterday published an interview with Congressman Lever, as follows: "Anderson is a fine town," remarked Congressman A. F. Lever, of Lexington, as he sat in the Chiquola barber shop this morning waiting to have his whiskers trimmed. Mr. Lever is in the city to attend the marriage of his friend, Solicitor G. B. Timmerman, and Miss Sullivan this afternoon. "Anderson is the finest town in the state," replied an Anderson man who heard the remark. "I do believe that is a fact," replied Mr. Lever. Then he asked many questions about the size of the city, the population, etc., and marveled greatly at the things the Anderson man told him. "And you have comparatively no railroad facilities," exclaimed Mr. Lever. "What wouldn't you do if you had thp samp railroad faoilitips that other towns have?" Mr. Lever has served two terms in congress, and has just been elected to a third term without opposition, which shows his great popularity in his district. When he was first elected he was the .youngest member of the national house of representatives, and was facetiously termed the "baby congressman." His mental powers were acute, however, and he soon made himself felt in whatever things he wanted to deal with. He is now one of the most active as well as one of the most useful of the South Carolina congressmen. There have been some rumors that Congressman Lever may be a candidate for the United States senate two years from now. He did not discuss that subject today, however. Congressman Lever is well known to many Anderson people and has many friends here. He delivered an address at the big Farmers Union picnic at the fair grounds two years ago, and his address was one of the best delivered on that occasion when good addresses were plentiful. Congressman Lever's friends in Columbia will be much interested in the political possibility suggested in this interview. He is regarded as one of the strongest, safest, most enterprising and most prominent Southern men in congress, and here in Columbia, where he is infinitely more popular than Senator Latimer, he would be assured of the most cordial and hearty support, without a dissenting voice.
