IF THE sewers of a dwelling
are faulty, or get ciogged, it
soon becomes so foul that life
is not safe in it. That Is just
what happens to you when the
Liver or Kidneys fail in their

backache, poor appetite, changes
in urine and sometimes bowel
troubles and dropsical swellings.
Do not neglect any Of these;

COUNTRY COUSINS SHOULD AVOID THIS PLATFORM.
 Every night in the year every pas senger who between the hours of half-past four and half-past six o'clock sets sets foot on the platform of the Third avenue elevated road station at City Hall, either coming from or going
 to train, Is in imminent danger of
 death in it's most frightful form. The
 number of persons thus imperiled each
 day is certainly thirty thousand, and it
 is probably considerably more. The
 fate which every one of these people
 risk Is that of being trampled under
 foot in crowd driven mad by pain and
 terror. The conditions that make dis
 aster there probable always and cer-
 tain to come sooner or later, are the re-
 suit of criminal negligence on the part
 of the Manhattan company's directors
 and officials in not providing proper
 terminal facilities at this important ter mnus, and on the part of our municipal
 authorities, police and other, in not
 forcing the company to do it's duty.
 Wednesday evening just at six o'clock
 the horrible possibilities of that single
 narrow platform escaped realization by
 a margin that was too small for meas
 urement While the passengers on one
 arriving train were still engaged in the
 inevitable struggle with those moving in the other direction, a second train arrived and heaped it's hurried hun dreds on the contending mass. Instant ly what had been annoyance became agony. Women screamed as they were crushed up against the iron rail- ings or were forced helplessly about by the adverse currents of humanity, and even the strongest men grew pallid with fright Meanwhile, the process sion of arriving. passengers was allowed to pour in an unbroken stream upon the platform, and the half dozen uni formed employees whose task it might be, but is not, to preserve order and prevent confusion did absolutely noth- ing except repeat, from positions of safety, their parrot cry of "Step right up forWard-plenty of room at the oth- CT end!" After ten minutes of desper- ate fighting the crowd in some myste- rious way untangled itself without as- and the danger reduced itself to it's customary proportions-New York Times

SINGING INSECTS OF JAPAN.
There are Many Esteemed Varieties
 and They are Sold as Birds are

There are Many Esteemed Varieties
 and They are Sold as Birds are
 Among Us.
 Singing birds are esteemed in all
 countries, but in Japan the musical
 sounds emitted by certain insects are
 appreciated Listening to these sing
 CTS has been for many centuries fa-
 vorite pastime of the Japanese, and
 has given birth to an original com
 merce. At Tokio toward the end of
 May and the beginning of June, one
 sees suspended under the verandas of
 houses little cages of bamboo, from
 which break upon the silence of the
 fresh twilight strange little whistlings
 of metallic modulations and light trlls
 which fill the air with a delicate music. It is habitually in the evening, after the
 hour of the bath, that the people of
 Tokio seat themselves and listen to the shrill concert The most prized of
 these singing insects is the suzumushi
 Its name means insect bell" and the sound which it emits resembles that of a tiny silver bell. It Is a tiny black beetle with a flat body. The kutsuwa- mushi is so named because it's cry re- sembles the sound made by a horse in champing it's bit. There are two spe- cies of it, the one a light yellow and the other a pale green. Really, this in- sect is kind of winged grasshopper, of fat body, and common in many countries
 Another singing insect much es- teemed is the kirigirisu, which is also a very large grasshopper, producing va ried, strident sounds. Then there is the enamkoroki, which is a kind of cricket; the kusahibari, a minute grasshopper, which has a sound of remarkable clear ness; the kantan, originally from Chi ma, which sings only at midnight; the kanetataki whose song resembles the far-away sound of a clock In Tokio alone there are over forty merchants dealing in singing insects. This com merce is of relatively recent origin, though for centuries the Japanese have been fond of the music of these insects Formerly they would go in parties to places where the little musicians abounded, pass the night there ex- tended upon mats drinking tea for sal,i and listening to the harmony of the suzumushi and kutsuwamushi It was only about one hundred years ago that an amateur named Chose had the idea of capturing one of these insects for his own particular diversion. Then, | the singing season over, he forgot a certain number in 8 closed vase. Great was his surprise on opening it 1 the following year to find it filled with l newly matched young. After that he gave himself up to the raising of vari- ous species of singing insects, and so founded a trade which has f1ourished | Actually the greater number of singing insects are artificially raised, so that their matching corresponds to the sea- sons when their admirers love to listen to them and to combine their sounds.- London Globe.
