The bill to prevent riding on free
passes on the railroads ought to be
come a law, but it will not be apt to
pass. Legislators dearly love free
* riding. It makes their mileage so
much clear money, and enables them
to come home whenever they wish it.

Expansionist statesmen and editors
are having, literally, a dueced time of
explaining away the Declaration of In
dependence and lbe*Conetitution of the
United Slates, for the purpose of de
fending their proposed despotic gov
ernment of Porto Rico and the Philip
pines.—Chattanooga Times.
The negro will continue to be a rot
ton apple of discord in this country.
The latest in ilcation ie that “the
Grand Lodge of Masons of Maryland
has resolved to cut off all communica
tion with that of the State of Washing
ton, unless the latter body shall rescind
its action extending recognition to the
negro Grand Lodges of the country.”
The Cleveland Plain Dealer says
\ there ie talk of establishing tbe whip
ping post in Chicago, and, strange to
say, tbe papers up there seem to agree
thr.t it ie just the thing lor the refor
mation of franchise grabbers and
swindling contractors. Chicago has
queer notions about fitting tbe punish
ment to the crime, as the Mikado has

What public opinion amounts to in
Russia may be gathered from tbe
recent census cf that empire, which
shows that in a population of 129,000,-
000 there are only 743 newspapers, or
one to every 160,000 people. Os these
589 are in Russian, 69 in Polish, 41 in
German, 9in French, 5 in Armenian
2in Hebrew. No English papers ap
pears in tbe list.
A correspondent of the London
Daily News notes the growth nf the
use of English on the continent.
Wherever he went he was able to con
vene with statesmen and diplomatists
in bis native tongue. He found that
as a rule the governing classes io E’j
rope would understand and speak
English. In the Russian royal family
especially, English is the familiar
language of conversation.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
water and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an unheal
thy condition of the kidneys; if it stains
your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble;
too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the
back is also convincing proof that the kid
neys and bladder are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so of
ten expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root,the great kidney remedy, fulfills ev
ery wish in curing rheumatism, pain in
tbe back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every
part of the urinary passages. 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 tbe day, and to get up
many times during the night. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-
Root is soon realized. It stands tbe high
est for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine you
should have tbe best. At druggists fifty
cents or one dollar.
You may h >ve a sample bottle and a
book that tells more about it, both sent
absolutely free by mail, if you send your
address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y. When writing be sure and
mention that you read this generous offer
<n the Middle Georgia Farmer.
Consumption
W -Jfl AWD Itfl
THE Editor t-I have an absolute
remedy for Consumption. By its timely use
thousands of hopeless cases have been already
permanently cured. So proof-positive am I
of its power that I consider it my duty to
send two botilts frtt to those of your readers
who have Consumption, Throat, Bronchial or
Lung Trouble, if they will write me their
express and postoffice address. Sincerely,

THE —:
MUTUfILLIFE INSURANCE CO.
OF NEW YORK.
Breaks The Dividend Record.
It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa
ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Connecticut, the. particulars
of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this in
stance eclipsed all previous dividend results:
Mr. Banks was insured for • 29
The dividends amounted to • • ..12 t ua>.w
Paid to the estate • $17,028.00
How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums in cash, and
he did this for fifty-tour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi
dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these
for his benefit. Here are the particulars:
Policy No. 1,288. Issued March 5,1845. > s > ooo -
Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan.
Original insurance in 1845
Dividend additions paid in 1898, ~12,028.00
Amount of death claim 1 2’2?2’22
54 Premiums paid by insured -8,040. W
Realized to estate over premiums paid - SB.BBBOO
Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2J) P e *
cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from $5,000
at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94.
The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent, of all the premiums
paid for tbe insurance.
Mr. Mark Banka was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings
Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety-four. He appreciated the
power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of
his method of investment —a result that has never been equalled by a policy
holder in any other company in the world.
For best plans of insurance please consult me.
