Thousands Have Kidney Trouble
and Don’t Know it.
How To Find Oat.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or set
tling indicates an
, unhealthy condi
tion of the kid
neys; if it stains
your linen it is
evidence of kid
ney trouble; too
frequent desire to
pass it or pain in
^e back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
It, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up ma y times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes.

wonderful discovery

bio business can possibly be
successful that is not adver
tised.
This is a sweeping statement,
but it is true. There are some
merchants in this community
whose experience apparently
contradicts the statement.
The contradiction, however,
is only apparent. If they have
attained any degree of success
they have advertised. They have
let people know what they had to
sell, what they were here for and
what they proposed to do. Just
in proportion to the thorough
ness with which they have done
this and met the conditions of
their competitors they have suc
ceeded.
If they have used the newspa
pers they have worked with the
best tools so far as getting pub
licity is concerned. If they have
worked without the newspapers
they have been handicapped and
have not attained the highest
possible measure of success.
A fertile seed planted in fertile
ground, carefully watered, will thrive
and bear fruit.
A properly organized business,
in any inhabited place, well advertised
will succeed. The law of
growth is as certain and inexorable in
one case aa the other.

Chicago, May 2f>.—In this sermon the
Rev. Frank De Witt TaImage presents
In a picturesque and forcible way the
duty of Christian fellowship. The text
is Matthew v, 41, “Whosoever shall
compel thee to go a mile, go with him
twain.”
A keen, shrewd lawyer was one day
listening to John Wesley preaching.
The founder of Methodism had three
different headings for his sermon:
First, “(let all you can without hurting
your soul, your body or your neigh
bors.” “That is sensible,” thought the
lawyer; “unless a man is continually
reaching out for something he will nev
er have anything. Industry is the foun
dation of all success.” Second beading.
“Save all you can, cutting off any need
less expense.” “Right again.” muttered
the listener. “It Is not so much what
a man earns that makes him wealthy
as what he saves.” Third heading,
“Give all you can.’’ “There,” exclaim
ed the hard headed lawyer, “the minis
ter has foolishly gone and spoiled ev
erything he has said. He ought to have
had for his third heading, ‘Give as lit
tle as you can.’ You cannot save un
less you keep what you have earned.”
So some of Christ’s auditors felt that
he was preaching the most foolish of
doctrines when he used the Illustration
of the twain mile. They were ready to
obey the Mosaic law’ of Justice. They,
would assent to an eye for an eye, a
tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand.
They would travel the first mile will
ingly and pay every penny that they
legitimately owed, but they were not
ready to turn the left cheek to a foe
after that enemy had deliberately
struck them a stinging blow upon the
right cheek. They protested against a
communistic gospel, which allowed a
thief to run away with their whole
wardrobe, with their cloak us w’ell as
their coat They would not enslave
themselves to any merciless taskmas
ter. For every day’s labor they must
have a full day’s pay. Yet Christ's
statement is strikingly true. It is right
in reference to the temporal life as well
as the spiritual. The willingness to
travel the twain mile Is the forerunner
of all true success. The unwillingness
to travel the twain mile is the cause of
almost certain failure.
The twain mile is the place of test
ing. It is where the powers that be
choose tlie men who are to be honored
in life’s service. There the human nice
is sifted. There the faithful are sep
arated from the irresponsible, the ener-
getic from the slothful, the true man
from the false, the self sacrificing from
the selfish, the one purpose man from
the indolent, lazy, shiftless individual
who lives without a definite aim. The
twain mile is the thrashing tioor of hu
man life, where the wheat is separated
from the chaff, the rich grain from the
useless tares.
Tlie Crowded First Mile.
Most of the human race are huddled
together and jostling each other dur
ing the first mile, where tbey only do
what they have to do. But In the sec
ond or the twain mile of life’s journey,
where a man does more than he is ask
ed to do, he always has plenty of el
bow room. As tlie great statesman
once said, "There is plenty of room at
the top of the ladder of success, al
though thousands of hands may lie
reaching for the lowest ruug.”
Every merchant knows of the sep
arating or testing influence of the
twain mile. When a position in the
store became vacant, whom, in all prob
ability. did you promote to the va
cancy—the clerk who has been in the
store for ten or fifteen y< ars. the young
man who has never been willing to do
any more than he was eomiieiied to doV
Did you select the employee who was
generally ten mluutes late in the morn
ing. tlie clerk who has his hat in his
hand ready to run for home as soon us
the hour hand points to tlie numeral
0V Did you promote one who seemed
to be indifferent to his work and had to
be watched day by day to be kept busy,
as a mother has to watch a little child?
No. The young man who received the
promotion was the poor country boy
who entered your store with no recom
mendation except the willingness to
travel the twain mile, the willingness to
do more than be was told or paid to do.
For years the twain mile young man
w’as the first employee at work in the
morning. For years he was the last
person to leave the store at night.
When the work plied up upon his desk,
unbidden by the head of his depart
ment he alw’ays stayed many hours
overtime until the work was done. He
was the young man who threw himself
into his allotted tasks with such in
tensity that he made his employer’s in
terests bis Interests.
. Who Is the leading memler today of
the New York bar—the lawyer who
when he graduated and could not find
clients spent most his time In the
neighboring billiard hall? The young
man who txcume an expert in card
playing or in Judging the races? No.
He was the young lawyer who studied
night and day and kept on studying.
He was the young man who put his
w’hole heart and soul into tlie smallest
cases which came to him. He did not
fritter away his energies, waiting for
the big cases to command bis services.
He is the twain mile lawyer. He does
more than he is compelled to do.
How Daolel Webster Worked.
A noted case was to be decided in
New York city. The chief counsel for
the defense was suddenly taken sick.
Within twenty-four hours Hie plea had
to be made m fore the Jury. Daniel
Webster at that time happened to lie
stopping at one of the hotels. He was
sent for to come to tlie rescue. The
next day he came into the courtroom
and made one of the dearest Interpre
tations of the most abstruse facts of
the law ever delivered before a judge,
lie won his ease, and was paid a fee
amounting to thousands of dollars.
When the friends crowded r.rcunJ to
congratulate, declai Uig that he had per
formed a legal miracle, Mr. Webster
answered; “My effort was no miracle.
I did not prepare that address in a few
hours. It took me months and months
to master these facts of the law. The
history of my plea is this; Many years
ago, when a young man. I was engaged
to defend a poor farmer. His case
financially represented only a few dol
lars. I think a fifty dollar bill was my fee.
It wasasmall case, tint the points of the
law Involved then were exactly the same
as the legal points which 1 presented to
day. I went to Boston and bought
many books. They cost me hundreds cf
dollars. I spent four exhaustive months
in work upon that case. I am receiving
today the reward of the mental labor
which I expended for my country
friend.” Mr. Webster was a tw’ain
mile lawyer. He was willing to do
more than be was asked or paid to do.
The same facts which have been stated
In reference to the clerk and the law
yer are true when applied to the suc
cessful physician, the minister or in
ventor. They can be applied to the true
temporal success of all men in every
department of life.
Now, God in the same way is testing
the spiritual availability and the future
usefulness of bis servants. He tests
them by tbelr willingness to travel the
twain mile, to do more than they are
asked to do. He tests them by the way
they go and hunt up the poor invalids
in the back alleys. He tests them by
the way they are willing to assist in
some mission work. He tests them by
the way they are ready to teach in the
Sunday school and bj’ tlie way tbey
take part in the Christian Endeavor
prayer meetings. He tests them by the
way the mistresses try to uplift the
spiritual w’elfare of the kitchen and by
tlie conversations the merchant has
with tlie young clerk in reference to
the salvation of the boy’s soul.
My friend, you think your spiritual
position in life is very humble, but you
have a twain mile to travel. That
twain mile, whether it starts from the
nursery, the factory, the mechanic’s
bench, the laborer’s ditch or the farm
er's plow, heads straight up to the
throne of grace. God is spiritually
Judging you today by what you are
spiritually willing of your own accord
to do for him.
The AnKel ot the Twain Mile.
The twain mile has for a guide the
angel of inspiring hope. The man who
lives without ambition or without the
hope of making something better out
of Ills life is practically dead. He is
like the branch of a tree in midwinter
All its latent buds are frozen. Then
the sap of life is unable to flow, but
when the spring comes then the snow
flakes melt away. Then the air is redo
lent with incense. Then the tree takes
on a new life. Later on, if the tree is
an apple tree, its branches are laden
with the golden fruits.
The pathway of the twain mile is ul
ways warmed by the life developing
sunshine of hope. The young man says
to himself: *T am ready to xvork years
and years if necessary in an inconspic
uous position. I am ready to work
hard and do more than 1 am asked to
do because I know that at last my
employer will reward me with a higher
position.” The young college student
says, “I am ready to bury myself in
r iny books and work hard because 1
know that at last there will come a
time when my industry will be recom
pensed as well as recognized.”
Tbe young man is led along tbe twain
mile of sacrifice tbe more willingly be
cause as be walks hand in Land with
the sweet angel of inspiring hope he
reads the lives of tlie great men of the
past. lie finds that tlie position from
which some of them started to climb
the mountain of fame and usefulness
was often more bumble than that
which he is filling. He sees a poor,
ignorant colored boy standing before
the billboard poster trying to learn bow
to spell. Then be secs tbe ignorant col
ored boy grow into the great orator,
until Frederick Douglass’ name be * 1 * * * * *
comes known over the civilized world.
He sees a young man as a Sunday
school teacher gather his own class of
rough boys by going into one of the
poorest and most depraved sections of
Chicago. Then he hears of that young
man. D. L. Moody, who was the great
est evangelist of the last century. He
sees Dr. Barnardo called to his great
work by beiug led by tbe band of a
street urchin to where fifteen little
boys were spending a winter night In
a coal bin. There tbe great human
savior of the London street arab saw
fifteen hungry urchins who were on
their way, but for his rescue, toward
the gallows, the penitentiary or the
poortiouse. When the young man
thinks of these great men, he says: “I.
too, have a mission in life. I, too, can
accomplish some good for my fellow
men if 1 am ready to travel the twain
mile of self sacrifice.”
So tlie sweet faced angel of hope
leads the disciple of Christ along the
self sacrificing pathway of the twain
mile. She puts the Bible into the dis
ciple’s hand and says: “Read. Chris
tian; read. That Bible is tbe promise
God has given to you. God declares
that if you will do what he bids you
do you shall have your rewj. for
traveling the twain mile for him.”
Learnlns to Forgive.
The twain mile is tbe place where the
Christian traveler upon life’s Journey
learns b.»w to forgive au Injustice as
well us to forget. Forgiveness is one
of the gospel Hue arts. It is the power
which comes Into a Christian’s life
which practically says: “When 1 have
j n work to do and only a short time in
| which to do it. I cannot afford to be
; westing my energies In foolishly nt-
1 tacking those people who are attacking
i u.e. 1 caiiuoi. as a general. 1 >■ spordii
; most of my time in pursuing a few for-
■ aging parties when 1 ought to be
; marching on toward the great city of
j Gospel Success.” Besides that, the
I Christian traveler says to himself;
j ‘T crimps I have not done* my full
duty toward my enemies. Perhaps I
have not been kind and loving enough.
Perhaps I have not presented my
Jesus in a clear, simple way. If
1 did. then I might change the foes
of Christ into his loving disciples. I
will forgive as well as forget. After
mine enemy has smitten me on one
cheek I will turn to him the other also.
After he has compelled me to go with
him one mile I will go with him
twain.”
This is not an absurd Interpretation
to make of the Christian’s feelings in
reference to his enemies when he is
trying to travel the twain mile of for
giveness. Almost without exception
the truly great men who have conse
crated their lives to a temporal cause
have been able to drop the bitter per
sonalities out of their existence. They
were able to forgive as well as forget
the personal injustices which had been
practiced against them. When the
north German states were being weld
ed into the great confederacy of the
German empire by the master states
man of the last century, Prince Bis
marck said to a friend during the dark
est days of the struggle: “I must not
think of what mine enemies might say
or do. To attain this end i would
brave all dangers—exile, indeed; the
scaffold itself. What matter if they
hang me provided the rope with which
d am hanged binds this new Germany
firm to the Prussian throne?”
During the last days of the Southern
Confederacy the southern army was
fleeing toward Appomattox Court
house. On account of tlie awful bom
bardment it bad dwindled into a mere
handful. General Robert E. Lee. one
of the grandest characters in history,
summoned a prominent.general to his
side and asked him what he should do.
“Anything. General Lee.” answered
the subordinate, “except surrender.
We do not want your enemies to say
that you had to give up your sword.
Bid the soldiers scatter, and we will
Join the armies in the south. Do not
spoil your grand record. Do not sur-
rendrr. "No.” answered General Lee:
”1 cannot think of myself. The war is
hopeless. If the men disperse, they
must live off the country and cause
useless suffering. I must lie true to
what is right. I must not think of
what people might say. I shall surren
der.” If such men could drop the per
sonalltles out of their lives, all true
Christian soldiers should be ready to
travel the twain mile for Christ’s causa*.
We should forget as well as forgive.
We should no longer have the enmities
which some of us bear our fellow men.
Jesus lias been given as an example
for all his disciples to copy. What did
Christ do when he was scoffed at and
spit upon? Why. the enemies made
so many charges against Christ that
Pilate, in amazement, asked him to say
something and refute the charges.
“Ilearest thou not how many things
they witness against thee? And he
answered him never a word, iusomuch
that the governor marveled greatly.”
Christ came to save the world. Jesus
did riot have time or inclination to
spend the last moments of his earthly
life fighting his detractors; ueither
should we.
Ilate'a Worst Enemy.
The twain mile Is the place where
the enemies of the true Christiau are
either mellowed or completely con
quered by love. As the willingness to
love one’s enemies makes a man strong
to go forth to the battle of life, so that
willingness to love au enemy dulls the
battleax of almost every foe. Love is
the most dangerous enemy hate has to
combat. Love is the duelist which will
disarm many a fatal adversary. Love
is tlie shield which can bluut or snap
every plunging spear. Love is the daz
zling light which can woo a smile from
many a scornful lip and the tear of re
morse from many a flashing eye.
My brother, the difficulty with you
and myself is we have been fighting
our enemies with the wrong kind of
wen|>on. We have been fighting fire
with fire, bate with hate, bitterness
with bitterness, slander with slander,
degth with death. But now Jesus has
given to us a new way to conquer our
enemies. We must disarm hate with
love; we must submerge slander with
forgiveness; we must answer a curse
with a prayer: we must offer to the
cliuebed fist an open palm; we must
extend to every enemy a helping hand.
Surely this idea is the interpretation of
tbe words. “W hosoever shall smite thee
upon thy right cheek, turn to him tlie
other also.” “Whosoever shall compel
thee to go with him one mile, go with
him twain.”
In ancient times, so goes the story, a
Roman commander at the head of his
legion went forth to capture a great
city. With rattle of chariot wheel and
flashing of spear and defiant standards
and signaling bugle bit st the Invading
army approached the city walk Much
to their surprise, they found every gate
wide open. The merchants were work
ing in their stores, the women were
working in their kitchens, the farmers
were in their fields. The Roman com
mander asked in surprise of the Inhab
itants who came forth to greet him:
“Where are your soldiers? We have
come to fight.” “We have no soldiers,”
was tlie answer of the inhabitants.
“We are a people of peace We wel
come you to our homes. We will care
for you as long as you wish to stay."
“Well,” answered the Roman com
mander, “if there are no soldiers to
fight we shall march on.” Tbo Roman
army came to battle with svord and
with spear. Thfy were conquered by
love. So our enemies have been for
years aPrck’n.; the vrallcd and forti
fied cltndt is ■ . our ht .rts. If we would
optn the barred gates of love to those
enemies and lower the drawbridge of
affect it i. we would capture nearly nil
of our foes ly the power of 1 ve. The
twain mile may have its thistles and
thorns and stony highways, but most
of those tlr nih can be blanketed with
the roses of Sharon. Most of those
pebbled pathways can be covered over
with a soft quilt of grass which once
grew at the foot of the tree out of
which was cut the beam of the cross.
tVbnt True Love Mean*.
The twain mile is the place where
Jesus becomes to every Christian a
treasured, loving personality. Well
substantiated is the fact that love
grows as much upon what we do for
others as what others do for us, upon
what we are ready to give as upon
what we are ready to receive. In order
to have true love, we must be ready to
lose our lives before we can Lave those
lives come to their true development.
We must be ready to die if we want to
truly live as we ought to live.
Why is a mother’s love the purest of
all earthly love? Because the baby di
rectly docs so much for tbe mother?
Oh, no. There never was a bigger ty
rant who ever wielded a scepter than
a little baby in the average home.
From the time the child is born until
grown it practically does nothing for
the mother. The mother is always do
ing something for the child. From the
advent some one has to keep tending
the child. The mother feeds it, dresses
It. cares for it. For the first year, at
least, the mother has a tugging silver
cord of affection, with one end attached
to the crib and the other end attached
to her heart. She practically lives by
the side of that child for weeks and
months. Then, when the baby is sick,
who nurses It—the graduate from the
school for trained nurses? 6h. no. Tlie
trained nurse may come in and help.
The person who for weeks never takes
off her clothes, the person who is al
ways by the side of the crib and sees
that the medicines are given regularly,
the person who is anxiously touching
the fevered cheek, is the mother, the
sacrificing mother.
Why is love generally purer and
deeper and wider in the poor man’s
home than in the rich man’s palace?
Some people may declare that this
statement is untrue, but if you have
been around as a pastor as much as
some ministers you will find that such
a statement is true. The reason that
love is generally sweeter and purer In
the poor man’s home is not because the
poor man naturally has a bigger heart
than the rich man. but tlie poor man
has to daily sacrifice for ills wife and
children. When Christmas comes
around, in order to have a Christmas
tree, perhaps the father himself has
to go without an overcoat. When his
sons are to be sent to college, in all
probability the poor man will have to
run into debt He Las to work over
time. He has to live in a small house
upon a side street. His love feeds up
on his sacrifices. So. my brother, if
you and I want to love and truly love
Christ, we must be willing to do some
thing for Christ. We must give our
selves body, mind and soul to bis serv
ice. We must be ready to travel for
him the twain mile. It is because sonic
of us are not ready to travel tills twain
mile that Christ’s teachings seem harsh
and narrow and perhaps unsympa
thetic.
Companion of tbe Twain Mile.
Some years ago. in the mountains of
North Carolina, a rich lady was riding
along in her carriage. Being overtaken
by a thunderstorm, she found shelter
in a farmer’s home. The place was
very humble. As in many poor homes,
there seemed to be healthy children
everywhere, but there was also one
crippled child. The rich lady said to
the mother, “Can nothing be done for
that child?” “No,” answered the moth
er, "nothing can be done. The village
doctor said the great surgeons in New
York might help him. Of course we
have no money to send him there.”
Tlie rich lady pitied the child. She
took him to New York. While there
the surgeons straightened out the crip
pled limbs. But though the little child
was at that time a cripple, yet on ac
count of wbftt the rich lady was doing
for him he had strength enough to
crawl into the rich lady's heart. Then
the rich lady went back and said to the
mother: “Since I have been caring for
your boy 1 have learned to love him.
Will you let me adopt him? 1 want to
bring him up as my own child and
make him my heir.” In after years
the boy used to crawl into the rich
lady’s lap and say; “Mamma. I am glad
I was once a poor little cripple. If I
had not been a poor little cripple, you
would not have pitied and worked for
me and learned to love me when you
were saving my life." So when we
Mork for Christ, when we travel for
him the twain mile, the Saviour creeps
into our hearts us well as we creep in
to his.
And. my friend, I want you to fur
ther remember that as you travel along
tlie twain mile for Christ he is also
traveling along the twain mile with
you. Upon the one side of you will go.
as I said before, the sweet faced angel
of inspiring hope, hut upon the other
side, tlie left side, the side nearest to
the heart, you will have for compan
ionship the One who sticketh closer
than a brother, the One who will lie
by your side, even if your father and
your mother should forsake you. If
you will only trust him, he will not let
you carry a burden greater than you
can bear. He will not let you have a
sorrow which lie cannot and will not
cure. He will not let you shed a tear
unless he is icady to wipe it away. He
is used to traveling the twain mile. He
once traveled Unit twain mile of Ills
own accord. He left heaven and trav
eled it to the foot of the cross to csrry
our sins and to die for us. Christ glad
ly did ail tills for you. Are you ready
to travel the twain mile for Christ?
