Philaedlphia's Busy Opticians.
LUCY CARTET

We call the attention of our readers
to the card of NJ. Zineman & Bros.
opticians, 1870 South Ninth street, Phil
adelphia They talk very interest
ingly about optical goods and give you
a straightforward chat about prices
that should induce everboydy needing
glasses to give them a trial. They are
very frank in making statements and
they clinch their arguments by giving
reasons why they can sell cheaper than
most opticians. They are the only job
bers in optical goods in Philadelphia.
Their factory and retail department
are in the same building. The retail is
simply an Inexpensive adjunct of the
wholesale department, consequently
their stock of eyeglasses is almost COM
plete. They do not advertise cheap
goods as a bait, but they do advertise
standard goods at lower prices than
most opticians can afford to sell them
at.
Another feature of their business is
that all goods sold by them are guar
anteed to prove satisfactory in every
way. If glasses they sell you should
at any time prove unsatisfactory
they will cheerfully exchanes them.
We feel sure that our readers will re.
cieve the best of treatment from Mes
srs. Zineman & Bros. Their prescrip-
tion department is in charge of the
most experienced attendants. Their
store is the largest in Philadelphia, their
business is the largest-both natur-
al results of straightforward dealings
with the people.

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. It is situated back of and verv
near to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or Inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake
attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is
easily made and may be easily avoided.
To find out correctly, set your urine
aside for twenty four hours; a sedi-
ment or settling indicates kidney or
bladder trouble. The mild and extra
ordinary effect of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney, and bladder
remedy is soon realized If you need
a medicine you should have the best.
At druggists fifty cents and one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and

A RIGHT ROYAL ROBE.
Made of Rare Feathers For the Ruler of

A million dollars seems a pretty
round sum to pay for a cloak, and prob

IL was not woman, but a man, who
was guilty of such a piece of extrava-
gance.
Long years ago, when the Hawaiian
Islands, small as they are, supported
not one but several fiourishing king
doms, the kings chiefs and mobiles.
whenever they appeared in public on
state occasions wore, instead of the
purple and ermine of more civilized
potentates, capes and cloaks Of brilliant
feathers. The ladies of the court were
forced to content themselves with feath-
er boas, as we should call them, known
as lels. These capes and collars were
made from the yellow, red and black
feathers OF few species of small birds
peculiar to the Sandwich Islands and
called, from their habits, honey sucl,-
ers. Fashion ruled even in those davs
and as the yellow feathers were scarcer
than the red yellow was the fashionable
color, and the more powerful the chief
the more yellow was his robe of state.
These yellow feathers were found only
on two or three species Of birds. tbe

native language mamo and known rs
Drepanis FGciiica by ornithologists.
These birds, with their striking blacl,
and yellow plumaRc, were as dear TO
the hearts Ct the Hawaiian monarchs as
they might be today to the hearts Of
patriotic Princeton students and were
sought for far and near throughout tbe
Islands The populace paid poll taxes in
golden feathers instead Of golden dol
lars and as each bird furnished but a

cred as having been high. Some esti-
mate Of the value of the feathers NAV
be formed from the prices paid in later
times, when piece Of nankeen cloth
valued at 81. 80 was the equivalent Of
hive feathers; but, after all. the great
element III the cost of these cloaks was
time and labor, since the making of a
single cloak required from so to 100
years.
