Your Blood Travels Through
Your Body in Two Contin-
uouS Streams.
II Starts From Your Heat and Passes
Through Your Kidueys.-What is the
Kidneys Part aud How They Perform
it.-What These Two Streams Have 10
do With Health aud Sickness.

Blood is made by your digestive organs
Your hearts pumps it all over you
body
1t contains food, heat and nourishment
which it gives out as it goes along.
This is the first stream.
1t is rich, red, bright, and runs through
blood vessels called BATTERIES.
When it has given out all its food ant
life, it takes up in return all the vast,
matter it can collect, and starts back L
where it came from
This is the second stream.
It is dark colored, unhealthy, poisonous
1t runs through I'll ,od vessels called
| veins.
| 1t takes the shortest cut to your Kid
| neys, for your kidneys are waiting TO
| filter it.
When it reaches them, they filter out all
| poisonous matter and expel the poison
from your body.
Then the blood goes on to tho liver and
| lungs, to get fresh food and heat after
| which it begins its journey all over again.
BUT:
When the kidneys don't filter the blood,
1t passes on just the same, and then, in
stead of leaving food and life wherever it
passes, it leaves behind it poison and dis
eass
This Is what makes US sick: Impure
blood.
ibis Is what makes impure blood: Sick
kidneys.
So long as the kidneys are well, they
will filter the blood
When they are sick. they can t, and that
is the long and short Of it.
So that when your kidneys are sick, or
when you have rheumatism Gout,
Anaemia, Chlorosis, Neuralgia, Nervous
ness. Loss of Ambition, Tire ducss De-
preston, Slecplessness, Backache, etc,
you may easily ct well by curing your
kidneys.
For all those symptoms are symptoms
of blood diseases. = il of them are caused
by the kidneys not properly filtcring your
blood. All OF them can be cured by tax
ing DIR. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
If you have eaten Asparagus, and #
course you have, you must know the
action it had on your kidneys.

Standing Still and Moving On.

There We're once two little sunbcams
starting out from the sun. Both were
wondrously little, smaller than cambria
needle. Said one: Its Of no use. | am
700 small ever to travel that immense dis
tance and reach tho earth. I'll wait till J
get bigger" So that sunbeam stopped
where it was and waited. 1t waited and
waited, and it is waiting still, not bit
bigger than it was at first.
But the other sunbeam, small though it
was, kept brayely on, as sunbcams are
wont to do. And rs it kept on it grew
Longer and longer it stretched, flashing
out mile after mile, and thousands of
miles, and millions of miles, and more
miles than you can think, until at last
the brave sunbeam reached the earth 1t
shone in on u poor sick woman who was
lying in bed, and it made her smile. And
the earth turned little, and it shonc on q
group of children at play, and they clappcd
their hands. And the earth turned round
little more and it shone on an old man
reading his Bible and made the page glo-
rious to him. And the world is still turn
ing and swinging new places round to-
ward the sunbeam that stretches, small ~
1t is, from the sun to the earth.

MORE BEER REVENUE.

Treasury OficlaIs Favor Increasing ths
Malt Liquor Tax 20 secure Revenue.
WAsuINGroN. May 2l.-All OF the
practical officials Of the treasury de-
department declare That steps will
have 20 ba taken TO secure additional
revenue TO meet the Legitimate eN-
penses of the government, now that
the decision of the income tax cases
has deprived the treasury of fully $50,
600 900 Nothing can be done except
in the way of suggestions NTH con
gress meets, and, as the president has
emphatically declared that he will not
call an extra session, no substantial
relief is expected until next winter.
Already it in suggested that an addi-
tional tax on beer will be the best
means of increasing the revenues. 1t
is also suggested that whisky and to-
bacco can stand an additional tax.
While tea and coffee are mentioned in
the same category, it is quite certain
that no attempt will be made to tan
these necessaries of life unless all other
means fail
