Among the Magazines.

That there are five thousand theatres
in America, and that one million and a
half people attend them each week day
night, spending seventy Millions of dol
lars year on theatre going, are the sur
prising facts with which Mr. Franklin
Fyles, the dramatic editor of the New
York Sun, will open an important series
in the next issue of the Ladies' Home
Journal. The series will be called ''The
Theatre and It's People," and will run
through seven numbers of the magazine,
lavishly illustrated with pictures made
by II different artists. The articles will
treat of every phase of the theatre, the
play and the actor, from the inside, and
will tell how theatre is managed; the
actual money which plays have made;
how an actor is trained and what the
actors are actually paid; how play is
written and what the authors receive;
how play is rehearsed; the first night OF
play; how the actresses make up" and
what they use; and in minute way the
two last articles will show what goes on
behind the scenes on the stage during
a performance. 1t is curious fact that
this will be the first time that the thea
tire and the actor have ever been exhaust
lively treated in magazine, and that
there is no book on the subject in ex.
istence.

Weddings in Cairo.

When one receives an invitation to
n wedding in Cairo, Egypt, ii is an i'm
portant event because instead of being
asked for ten minutes church cere-
mony or brief evening reception, the
invitation reads for three days. There
is feasting during all this time and the
house and street are literally decora-
ted with flags and lanterns
The third and concluding evening Of
the ceremonies the courtyard of the
brides house is rooted with tenting,
hung with flags and oriental embroid-
cries, the ground Is strewn with rich
rugs and the place lighted with hun
dreds of candelabra. All the people
present amid this gorgeousness are
men. The entertainment consists of
music. which goes on without ceas-
ing. and the guests smoke cigarettes
and drink coffee until buffet supper
is served. The viands include Turkish
dishes. French concoctions and Arab
salads.
After supper a procession is formed
Of all the servants and dependents
each holding glass-covered candle
and down the double line thus formed
the bridegroom walks to the portion of
the house where the bride has been
entertaining her women friends
These women are always attired in
their best and wear jewels worth hun
dreds, frequently thousands, of dol
lars.

bamboo OpaIs.

Among the queer things found in the
Philippines are bamboo opals, a vege-
table gem which is sometimes discov-
cred by the natives in the stem of the
bamboo" said a gentleman who has
lived for a number of years in Manila.
mot one piece of bamboo in a thou
sand, however, contains a specimen, as
the bamboo grown there. as elsewhere,
is usually empty, but accident occa-
sionally brings to light in the bamboo
stem a small, flint-like material which
presents the appearance of a perfect
opal. These nodules are known to the
natives as 'tobacur,' and / have from
time to time during my long stay on
the islands seen several of these veg
etable freaks of nature which repro
duced the characteristic lines Of the
opal so faithfully that experts were
puzzled to know the difference between
the vegetable and the real specimen"

In New York at present the most
popular phrase to designate inferior
lty is thirty cents" A man looks like
thirty cents; detected and disconso-
late individual feels like thirty cents;
a promising venture amounts TO no
more than thirty cents. Some efforts
have been made TO explain the signifi-
canoe of the expression and some per-
sons think 1t may be traced to a thir-
ty-cent meal patronized by those who
had previously been able to pay more
the amount being sufficient to buy a

WHAT TO DO.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
ofteneXpressed, that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills
every wish in curing rheumatism, pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. 1t
corrects inability to hold water and scald-
ing pain in passing it, or bad effects fol
lowing use of liquor. wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
being compelled to go often during the
day, and to getup many times during the
night. The mild and extraordinary eff
feet of Swamp Root is soon realized 1t
stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. III

best. At druggists 50c or S100.

wonderful merits, mention the Paw Paw

How to Find Out.

Fill bottle or common glass with
your water and let it stand "a hours; a
sediment or settling indicates an I'M
healthy condition of the kidneys; if it
stains your linen it is evidence of kidney
trouble; too frequent desire to pass it or
pain in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out of

cannot recall the time when so much
preliminary work has been done by
candidates so far i'm advance of the
