Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady

they had heart trouble. because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney

1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly

Take piece of paper and put down

them down. Work up till you get to

Animal Intelligence.

In circus in Paris lion was given
some meat shut up in a box with lid

whether the lion would open the lid or
crack the box. He did the former

prefer oats to corn.

which 1t buries its eggs five feet deep.
The heaviest bird that flies is the
great bustard. In size 1t exceeds the
Norwegian blackjack. The old males
weigh about 30 pounds, but when food
is plentiful the young males may

formerly as plentiful in western
Europe as cartridges. Now they are

sire. "The first two qualities | mem

HOTTEST PLACE ON EARTH
II IL Bshrein, on the southwestsxa
Coast OF Pernin

II IL Bahrein, on the Southwestern
Coast OF Persia
The hottest region ON the earth's sur
face Is ON the southwestern coast of
Persia, on the border of the Persian
gulf. For 40 consecutive days in the
months of July and August the mer-
curry has been known to stand above
100 degrees In the shade night and day
and to run up as high as 100 degrees
In the middle of the afternoon.
At Bahrein, In the center of the most
torrid belt. as though It were natures
intention to make the place as unbear-
able as possible. water from wells Is
something unknown. Great shafts have
been sunk TO a depth of 100, 200, 800
and even 800 feet, but always with the
same result-no water. This serious
drawback Notwithstanding. a compare
lively numerous population contriyes
10 live there, thanks to copious springs
which burst forth from the bottom OF
the gulf more than a mile from the
shore.
The water from these springs Is OBJ
manner. "Machadores" divers, whose
sole occupation is that of furnishing
the people of Bahrein with the life CIV
ing fluid. repair to that portion of the
gulf where the springs are situated and
bring away with them hundreds OF
bags full of the water each day. The
water of the gulf where the springs
burst forth is nearly 200 feet deep, but
these maehadores manage to fill their
goatskin sacks by diving to the bottom
and holding the mouths of the bags
over the fountain jets-this. too. with
out allowing the salt water of the gulf
to mix with 1t.
The source of these submarine foun-
tains is thought to be In the hills of
osmond 400 and 800 miles away. Be-
