If They Are Vol. A Few Facts
About Them, and How "a Make

your Dlood is what nourishes your
body.
New blood is made every minute.
1t goes to the lungs, gets fresh air, and
then passes through the body. In pass
ing, 1t deposits new flesh, fat, bones,
etc., and takes up worn out matter.
This worn out matter goes to the kid
neys. The kidneys filter il out OF the
blood and throw 1t out of the body.
That is. when they are well, they do.
When your kidneys are well. they
act. as perfect filters, to keep your
blood pure. When they are sick, they
act imperfectly. They leave the bad
matter in. Sometimes they take out
the good.
There is nothing more poisonous than
bad blood.
A proof of this is rheumatism. 1t is
simply blood poisoning caused by tho
bad matter left in the blood by sick
kidneys.

ing the other way-taking the good
food out of the blood.
Both kinds of kidney sickness are
dangerous.
Both can be cured by DR.. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney Pills.
One OF the most wonderful facts OF
our body is this natural filter inside
us. Our kidneys are very important
organs. We don't take enough care OF
them. We are sick oftener than there
is any need for. 1t is simply because
We take no heed to our kidneys.
Sick kidneys show their effects in
many different diseases.
Rheumatism and Bright's disease
are very common. Anaemia, Neural
gia, Pain in the Back, Dizziness, Blad-
der Troubles. Gravel, Diabetes, Sleep
lessness, Nervousness.
These are only a few symptoms, or
so-called diseases" Back Of them all
are the sick kidneys.
Once the filters can be made to work.
all these symptoms will disappear.
DIR. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
are made principally from the roots Of
the asparagus plant, which has a spe-
cial curative action on the kidneys. It
gives them new life and strength. It
helps them to do their work as it ought
to be done. II cures their sickness. 1t
cleans and renews the filter.
When the kidneys are well you will
feel a great difference at once. Your
complexion will clear, and your whole
body will ges renewed life and fresh
ness.
This is the effect of DR.. Hobbs Spar
agus Kidney Pills on the sick kidneys,
of the re-vitalized kidneys on the i'm
pure blood.
With a course of DIR. Hobbs Spara-
gus Kidney Pills you will get new life

Rob Roy That was the most difficult thing I have done yet, because, if you know anything about the tartans, you know the Scots never designed them with an eye to stage effects, especially the plaids of the most important clans that figured in the opera. These plaids were too somber. They didn't light up well on the stage, and if you would be- lieve it, there was hardly more than one containing white, which is so nec- essary color, and gives value to all color combinations.

 England and the English evince an even deeper interest in Japan and her recent doing than does America. The LondonFpapers print less detailed news of the war, but they print more com ment on its possible results and take the whole thing more seriously than we do. Apart of that can be attributed to the fact that England is willing to take al most anything seriously, from the prince of Wales to an American joke; but a part of 1t is also due to the fact that it is nation of experts on for eign affairs.

silk to the green velvet of a New York society dame's dress before the s. F. c. A. issued it's prohibitive edict. The English foreign service is trained corps of men whose lifetime has been devoted to study of the work that is before them, and of nothing else. Its ambassadors and ministers and con sul-generals and consuls are men who may feel practically sure that nothing but promotion or bad serv- ice will cause their removal from the posts they fill. Politics play almost no part in the matter at all, except with the foreign minister-the nominal head of the department. And even he-and he is by no means the most important person in the service-is certain to be chosen because he is fit to serve. The mere fact that man is an aged politi- elan, worn out by the winning of other and infinitely diverse official "honors, :" will not secure his appointment to any branch of the diplomatic service. Parliament asks even more questions than congress does, and bad appoint ments are likely to create storm.

land may be supposed to be better judge of the probable influence of the Japan-China war than we are. England looks upon it as the most portentous and important event of modern history. Sir Edwin Arnold-who is no less a pol itician than poet-knows more about it than any other Englishman. Here is part of what he said:

 "Japan's victory is the greatest pro- gression that the world has seen since the American colonies won their inde pendence. For uncounted centuries an impossible boundary existed between the west and east. England broke it down so that India was open; America, through Perry, broke it down so that Japan was open. Now Japan has broken it down so that China-greatest conquest of them all-is open.
 1T do not mean by that that China will now or, perhaps, ever enter into the column of progressive nations. Japan will not go far enough in her victory to uproot the present Chinese

MT. and Mrs. Seidle have ore of the prettiest homes in the theatrical col ony at Ludlow, about half an hours ride from New York city. The house is on the bank of the Hudson and from the droll little studio where Mrs. Seidle works the view is up and down the Hudson and the Palisades for miles. 1t isn't like other studios, because it is a studio without an easel. The chief article of furniture is a large bookcase filled with costume books for the wild plunges into all ages and countries re- quired by the modern stage.

 Mrs. Edward Seidle has developed genius for designing comic opera bouffe and character opera costumes, and is taking leading place where men hitherto have reigned supreme. As soon as women artists learn about Mrs Seidle others will no doubt try to imi- tate her, but stage costuming has reached such point that it is an art in itself, for which special knowledge is required, and the very few men who have made permanent successes in it in New York can be counted on one hand. E
 London artists have been accustomed to getting many American orders, but Mrs. Seidle has kept more than one order in this country in the last year which might otherwise have been sent to England. Sheis English herself That doesn't need telling in 50 many words after hearing her invitation to step across the. hall into the office of her husband, who is property master of the Metropolitan opera house, and of all of Mir.

 ''Tell you about my work? don't think there is very much < to tell.

has in her mind all these costumes grouped before the designs are sent out of her hands.
 As many as forty or fifty different de- signs are made for one opera usually, and then the men often wear masculine editions of the feminine designs.
 Hanging on the ever useful door are couple of folded sheets of paper. ''That is the way the opera comes to me" says Mrs. Seidle. "Those are the lists of what is wanted. The next one shall attack is an Egyptian affair. I'll go browsing around through all our books and through libraries until get into an atmosphere of lotus and mummies. Then I shall go to work, and, if necessary, can get through with an opera in three weeks, but month is better"
 Anyone who is hunting for a new col lection fad might take a hint here. When the designs are completed and sent to the purchaser, everyone of them is little water color gem of a figure, and so full of action that often they are preferred to portraits as founda- tions for the posters of a company.
  What becomes of all these sketches isn't stated, but if they could be secured they would make an immensely inter- esting collection.
 Among the other things in which Mrs. Seidle has had experience is scene painting. When Mir. Seidle was with former manager in New York Mrs. Seidle more than once mounted the scaffold and laid on quarts of paint over good canvas, especially for tapes try settings. The Raphael cartoons which E. s. Willard uses in Judah" were done by Mrs. Seidle, and Willard, happening in one day while she was at work, declared that it was the first time in his experience, either in Eng land or this country, that he had seen 1 a woman scene painting.
 Mrs. Seidle is decidedly petite, bright, energetic and model housekeeper. She is the mother of an interesting small boy, and has both the sympathy and encouragement of her husband, who is decidedly proud of the use to | which his wife has turned her artistic training and talents.
