IF YOU have PAIN IN YOUR BACK.

Let us give you piece of advice: Pain in
the back is an almost infallible sign Of Kid.
ney disease; a surer sign is the condition of
your urine, if you have a pain in the back
then LOOK to the condition of your urine. It
is easily done Take glass tumbler and fill
it with urine, after it has stood "a hours; if
it has sediment, if it is milky or cloudy, if
it is pale or discolored, strngy or ropy, your
Kidneys and Bladder are in a dangerous con.
dition and need immediate attention, or the
consequences may prove fatal.

W0MEN'S ODD PETS.
Sigs, Frogs, Turkeys and Even Mice
Have Found Favor with
thu Ladies'.

Some minds are strikingly original,
even in the choice Of pets. Certainly
this was the case with the wife of
gentleman farmer who made II pet of
. pig. The animal lost its mother
early, and the lady, taking pity on the
little orphan, bore it off to the kitchen,
where she succeeded, by the aid of u
feeding bottle, in rearing it.
The pig became n great pet, and used
TO follow it's owner like n dog. 1t
could hardly have been its outward
attraction that won her heart it must
have been it's qualities which endeared
it to her.
Another very singular pet was n
frog, which was tanned by a young
girl in the country and would come out
from under the leaves at her approach
TO be fed with strawberry.
A lady who was confined to her room
had q fowl which, before her illness,
was a constant companion. 1t used to
be regularly brought to her room every
morning to see her and to be fed by
her own hands, and allowed to take
n short walk about her room.
, Another member of the feminine
gender actually made pet of turkey,
and declared it should "never be
eaten, but die in its own good time"
which it did of old age.
A much more extraordinary in
stance of n strange pet, for a woman
at any rate, was where an old lady so
of her sex Us to tame a mouse which
had been caught in her store cupboard.
So successful was her treatment that
at last the tiny animal would take
crumbs from its mistress fingers.

NATURES COLOR BOX,
Fruits and Negctab1es When Prop
crly Used, Help to Enhance
Human loneliness.

Mother nature is great artist, and
will beautify the plainest face if shG
has u chance. 1t sometimes takes
months or even years for her to com
plete her task, but it can be done with
patience and full surrender to the in
visible genius, says the New York
Herald.
Onions, from leeks to Bermudas, are
bleaching, and SO are lemons, aspara-
gus and celery. Spinach is the broom
of the stomach, as the French say, and
sorrel, in soup of puree, as they cook it
in the provinces and at the students
restaurants in the Latin Quarter, is u
great beautifier. Dandelion, lettuce
aud all the salads will bring out the
red and white tints of the skin.
Beets, carrots, tomatoes, strawber-
,ries, raspberries, cherries and black
berries are red and blood making, de-
,velopng infantilc loveliness in cheek
and lips if eaten, not now and then, but
three times a day. This is the fruit
cure or Garden of Eden breakfast, and
II will be remembered that Eve had no
patent medicines, cosmetics or doctors.
Pineapple is good for the stomach
and air passages. Rice. all cereals and
white vegetables, such as caulifower
and parsnips, are wholesome. But
pickles and piercrust, hot cakes and
too many sweets will make one look
pasty, because they lack the acids and
salts which nature needs to cleanse her
machinery. Oil she must have, too,
from the olive and nut, to keep the in
iernal wheels revolving.

Germ Killers.

1t has been shown by Koch and others
that soap is microbcide, or germ kill
er, and, according to Prof. Serafini, soda
or potash soap is quite a good disin-
fectant, not only because of the alkalis,
hut the combination itself. Heating the
water favors the effect. Resinous soaps
are not the best disinfectants. Mar
settles soap is very good. A solution of
three or four per cent. kills the most
resisting microbes.

1t has been decided to establish q
meteorological observatory at the top
of the great cathedral spire in Ulm,
Germany. The Tim cathedral is one of
the most extraordinary in existence, on
account of the great size and height of
its spire, which reaches an elevation of
l52s feet. Although the great church
was begun more than 500 years ago, the
lspire was not completed until 1890.
