The bladder was created for one purpose, namely, a receptable for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by ono of two waps. The first, way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from careless lo¬ cal treatment of other diseases. CHIEF CAUSE. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubie. So the womb, like tlio bladder, was created for one pur¬ pose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the blad¬ der, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience manifested in tlio kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passages is often, by mistake, attrib- ua/ted to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may lie as easily avoided. To find out correctly set your urine aside for twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling indi¬ cates kidney or bladder trouble.

Every fling made as Judge Atkin¬ son because he does not resign his place on the railroad commission is a reflection upon some of Georgia’s ablest mul purest statesmen, whose memory is embalmed in the hearts of the people. Alex Stephens, Bon Hill, General Colquitt, General Gor¬ don and Henry G. Turner did not consider it improper to hold ono office while seeking another, and only the fact, that, the law requires the Secretary of State to keep his office open every day except Sun¬ day convinced the one-idead pigeon rooster of its impropriety. He was forced to resign to gain time to mako a canvass, and liis grand stand play in connection with that resignation should win no credit. I was reading an advertisement of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the Worcester Enterprise recently, which leads mo to write this. I can truthfully say I never used any remedy equal to it for colic and diarrhoea. I have never had to use more than one or two doses to cure the worst case with myself or children.—W.
