From the moment OF conception the
little vital spark is dependent on the
blood and tissues of the mother for

From the time 1t Is born until it Is

There can be no question as to these

be strong and healthy.
Pure blood and rich blood are sYnony-

No PERSONS blood can be pure unless
the kidneys are working naturally and

The sole duty of the kidneys is to
purify the blood.

Tho Northumberland Man.

Tho Hodge of, say, Essex or Cambridge
shire, with his comparatively poor ply
siquo, duo to generations of low wages and
bad feeding, his lack of ambition and love
Of Stops and beer, is not comparable to tho
intelligent and robust kinds Of Northum-
borland or Roxburghshiro OF tho Lothians.
Any ono accustomed to make long walk
ing tours in both countries will admit tho
truth of tho following observation. In
any purely agricultural district of Scot
land you may travel from 10 to II miles
without passing single public house, and
indeed tho disappearance of many ancient
hostelries is conspicuous feature of tho
last decade, but tho poorest and most de-
pressed portions of Essex and Suffolk aro
still literally supplied with beor houses.
Grumble rs Hodge will about being
starved ON or 10 shillings week, he lays
himself open to tho retort that he subsists,
and has surplus for alo 1t Is cheap,
vilo and heady, and ono would think dou-
bly, hurtfui to those who arc i'll nourished
Again, tho surroundings arc very unlike.
The squire and parson, oxcellently as they
may fulfill their duties, in somo respects
have paupcrizing influence. Very char
aoteristic was tho comment of the rustic
after listening to II fiery orator, who had
promised tho abolition of landlords and
clergy, "Then who will there DO to gil
mo my Christmas Goals and blankotsf"
Against tho minister and tho laird no such
charge can be fairly brought. -Chambers'

wife, accepted tho offer, and afterward
wrote tho playwright that he had enjoyed
the piece immensely. cts too bad, how
ever, that you had to put music in it," he
said. 1T was so pleasing without. Come
and hear me preach" "A few days after,
Mr.. Hoyt, who used to go to school with

Sarah Bernhardt is with us once moro.
She is at Abbey's theator, and there Is lust

first visit to this country. After oil, sho is
par excellence tho actress Of tho world
the actress who can draw enormous sums
Of money to the box Office whether she
happens to be in America, Russin, Italy,
England or Franco. Outside of her great
art believe that one of the secrets of
Sarah's universal potency and popularity
lies In tho fact that sho is an actress at all
times, off tho stage as we'll as on. While
submitting to tho process of interviewing,
tho "divine Sarah" does not allow herself
to forget her profession for a single mo-
mont. Tho newspaper man to whom has
been assigned the task which in most cases

companying sketches made during the
progress of an interview with tho eccentric
French artist will servo to show TINT she
never loses tho opportunity to impress an
audience, even though it consist only of
on artist and a newspaper reporter? Like
all actresses, Bernhardt dislikes to be in
teryiewed, and again, like all actresses,
she never loses an opportunity to let the
gentlemen of tho press know that sho
might be induced to say something. But,
eccentrioity aside, Bernhardt is the one
French player who has been able to mako
tours of America profitable alike for star
and managers. Duso is great favorito
with the critics, but sho will never draw
