IuO MUCH WORK
For a Healthy Existence.-Thsts
Why the Kidneys 50 often Fail.

Nature has provided a certain amount
of work for every organ OF the human
body; overtax them and disease eventu-
ally follows. There Is not one por-
ton of our organism that Is so Overworked
as the kidneys; on them Is placed the i'm.
portant function of filtering the blood of
the impurities which naturally form In the
regular action of life and digestion. The
kidneys are consequently termed the sew
erage of the system; clog up this sewer,
and the blood becomes tainted with poison
Gus uric acid, which brings on disease
in many forms. The back is the first TO
show this stoppage. From there comes
the warning note; it should be needed.
and the kidneys receive prompt attention.

A Season of Recreation.

Thanksgiving day has long been pc
Rod of social happiness, and one cannot
fail to note decided tendency to make
it day of physical recreation also.
Both of these forms of enjoyment are
valuable and desirable. Perhaps the

in which all the activities of mantle

and the physical-work in harmony for
the accomplishment of the highest and

THANKSGIVING.
Old Time has turned full many page

Old Time has turned full many q page
In my dull book of life
Since / in burning words beseeched
Fair Prue TO be my wife.
Methinks l still can hear her voice
SO mournfully decline
The offer that made and say
She'd ne'er be- wife Of mine.
The world has sped its fieeting way
Adown the paths of space
Since that faioff Thanksgiving day,
But time will ne'er efface
The mem'ry OF her gentle "No"
That babe my hopes depart.
To leave me-ah, it seemed 40 theni-
Naught save broken heart.
Thanksgiving days have hurried by
Twoscore of them, guess.
The gloomy shroud that wrapped me Their
Is gone, must confess
She's married-yes. Prue married-and
Her husbands hair turned gray.
Mayhap that's why 80 gratefully
render thanks today.
