to be an axiom with the modern physi-

it was far otherwise with the physic-

nance Of ssRomeo and Juliet.
]. E. Woolacott writes from Carlo,
thus describes a performance Of "Ro.
meo and Juliet by Arab actors:
From our box facing the stage we
look down on a sea Of red tarbooshes,
broken here and there by the turban
of sheikh. On our left a few harem
boxes with white lace curtains drawn
tightly across the front indicate that
the fair sex are not entirely shut out
form the joys of the drama. The peep
holes originally cult TO enable the
ladies to obtain q clear view of the
stage have been in several instances
materially enlarged by the hands of
the fair playgoers, and we catch now
and then a glimpse of a face, the flash
OF an earring, and the red glow of a
lighted cigarette.
Impatient for the play to begin,
the occupants Of the back benches
stamp their feet with logged persist.
ance, and after ten minutes of this
amusement the curtain is rung up, re-
vealing the entire company, stiff and
erect, formed in two rows. the princi-
pals, Of course, in the foreground.
I'm doleful chant, punctured with
mournful groans, we have the pro-
logue, and assuredly the 'misadvent-
ured, piteous oyer-throws' of the lovers
of Verona never fathomed the depths
of woe suggested by this Arab choir,
The curtain falls amid vociferous APP
plause, and five minutes later rises
again. revealing the amorous Romeo
clad in red doublet and sky-blue
trunks, gazing with rapture at the
balcony of his lady. love-
MY mentor assures me there Is good
literary workmanship in the version
Of Romeo and Juliet that is being
played. But the story itself has been
materially tempered with. The gar
rnlous old nurse does not appear, and
the Count of Paris furnishes all the
comic relief vouchsafed by the trans
lator. This doughty noblemans CO.'S
tune consists of brown velvet doub-
let, sky-blue combinations. which only
continue to the knee. ending there in
little lace frill, striped socks, and
brown slippers. Juliet fiouts him to

howl with delight"

The Kidney Complexion.

The pale. sallow, sunken- checked, dis
tressed looking people you SO often meet
are afflicted with kidney Complexion.
Their kidneys are turning to a parsnip
color. So is their complexion
They may also have indigestion, or suf-
fer from sleeplessness, rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, brain trouble, nervous exhaustion
and sometimes the heart acts badly.
The cause is weak, unhealthy kidneys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney dis
ease does not find out what the trouble is
until it is almost too late, because the first
symptoms are SO like mild sickness that
they do not think they need a medicine or
a doctor until they find themselves sick in
bed.
DR.. kilmer's Swamp Root will build up
and strengthen their weak and diseased
kidneys, purify their diseased, kidney
poisoned blood, clear their complexion
and soon they will enjoy better health.
You can get the regular size at the
drug store, at nifty cents and one dollar,
or you may first prove for yourself the
wonderful virtues of this great discovery,
Swamp Root, by sending your address to
DR.. Kilmer d Co., Binghamton, n. V, for
a sample bottle and book that tells all
about it, both sent to you absolutely free
by mail. When writing kindly mention
