MIR. Leland Powers is finished artist. There
is not another man on the American platform

senator. There is something about Mr.,
Powers that draws and holds the attention
of his audience from the moment he utters his
first speech until he makes s his last exit t., -
and breathed in Powers hands, and they
were as distinct and as cear-cut as though
they had been taken by separate actors, in
stead vi being played by man. Mr.
Powers brought out in splendid manner the
little shadows and sde-lights of the charac.
ters he represented, and his elOcution was
perfected in every scene. For man to por
tray all the characters of play and without
scenery or make up to present them with
full dramatic effect that audience can
follow the play with the intense interest that
would be excited by a first-class company OF
artists, is indeed wonderful. Yet this is what
that prince of impersonators does. But Mr.
Powers is not a mere i'm personator, an imita
tor of other mems actions. His creations are
as original as the Shakespearean portrayals
of truly great actor. He is actor, and
an actor with versatility that is remarka

Men and women doctor their troubles
so often without benefit that they get
discouraged and skeptical. In most
such cases serious mistakes are made in
doctolIng and in not knowing what our
trouble is or what makes US sick. The
unmistakabie evidences Of kidney trou-
BILE are pain or dull ache in the back,
too frequent desire to pass water, scanty
supply, smarting irritation. AS kidney
disease advances the face looks sallow

heart acts badly. Should further evil
dence be needed to find out the cause
OF sickness, then set urine aside for
