been accustomed to a separate nurse

most as many divisions in the house

ed TO having their slightest effort antici-

climatic. and those arising in the com

manual labor was regarded in this de-

The remnant, or rather the effect, Of
these influences still survives, and the
Anglo Saxon who would preserve abso-
iutely good form should not indulge HI

the more so in Mexico. where It Is not

BELeIANs' QUEEN DIES.
Marie Henriette Expires at HEALTH:
Resort After Protracted Illness.

Marie Hcnriette Expires at HealtIs
Resort After Protracted Illness.
Marie Henriette, Queen of the Bel
gians, died at Spa. after a long illness.
The Queens malady was heart trouble,
which, during the past five years, gave
her much distress and frequently caused
protracted spells of sickness.
1t was only, however, during the past
three months that these periods of sick
ness were considered of a critical nature.
On July 8. after a consultation of the
court physicians, ii was announced that
her majesty might succumb at any mo-
ment, but, to the surprise of all, she raj
lied and was apparently well for several
weeks. After the middle of August the
Queen has been constantly growing
worse. The Queen was conscious almost
to the last moment, and her passing away
was apparently painless and peaceful
Queen Marie Henriette was the daugh-
yer of the late Archduke Joseph of Aus
tria and Marie Dorothea, Princess of
Wurtemberg. She was born n.Aug. %,
1896, and was married at the age of II
10 Prince Leopold, then the young heir
to the throne of Belgium.
For many years the Queens hopes CEN
tered in her three daughters. the Prin-
cesses Louise. Stephanie and Clementine.
Louise was married to Prince Philip OF
SAKE Coburg and Cotha and Stephanie
became the wife Of the Grown Prince Ru-
dolph of Austria Both of these mar
riages have been the most wretehed fall
ures.
The unfortunate Queen Of the Belgians
has known very little happiness from the
moment of her rtarriage. What with her
domestic troubles and her illness she has
had few pleasant days. Yet she took
much interest in religion, philanthropy
and art.

Showing tho Way.

Most of our readers know ell about
the aches and pains of a bad back;
very few people are free from sick
kidneys, as the kidneys are the most
over-worked organs of the body and
''go wrong at times, no matter how
well the general health may be. The
trouble is so few understand the indi-
cations of kidney trouble. You are
nervous, tired out and weary, have
stitches, twinges and twitches of back
ache pains, but lay it to other causes;
finally the annoyance and suffering at
tendant with urinary disorders, reten-
ton of the urine, too frequent urina-
ton, make you realize the seriousness
of 1t. At any stage YOU should take
remedy that win not only relieve but
cure you. Read the following and

Barnum's Reply to Farmer Who Asked

Barnum's Reply to Farmer W no Askeo
if 1t Would Pay.
1t may be said of F. T. Barnum that
he was the Majordomo or Lord OF
Laughter and Fun. the protean Dis
penser Of Amusement How well he
became known through this function
one curious incident certifies. Some
years before he died, an obscure per
son in some remote part of Asia wrote
a letter, which he dropped in the post
Office near him, directed to Mr.. Bar
mum, America" The letter reached
its destination without an hours de-
lay. The great Snowman unafectedly
enjoyed being known from the very
beginning of his celebrity; and when
he found his celebrity was a tremend-
Gus factor in his success, he did everss-
thing that he could think of to extend
the exploitation of his name. This
was not to nourish vain imaginings or
because he felt exalted; it was to pro
mote business.
Around his successive homes at
Bridgeport, Conn. he was fond of put

Queerly marked cattle, the sacred cow,
or an elephant, were frequently among
the stock to be noticed In his fields.
On one occasion he had an elephant
engaged in blowing on the sloping hill
where it could plainly be seen by the
passengers on the New Haven and
Hartford Railroad, an agricultural in
novation that he knew would get no
tlce of some sort in every newspaper
in the country. 1t was even said that
he received letters from farmers far
and wide asking how much hay one
elephant ate, and if it was more prof
liable to pillow with an elephant than
with horses or oxen. His replies were
invariably frank, and were of this pur-
port: If you have a large museum in
New York, and a great railway seEds

with the adjustment of the loases the
representative of one. of the insurance
companies interested discovered that
the insured had policy for $1,000
which nad been overlooked Upon max

prietor denied that he had any such pol

of the books OF the Queen. showing
when the premium had been paid, that
he was convinced that he was entitled
TO the sum involved. Even then he de-
clared that the insurance concern had
made mistake, but if it insisted that
he was entitled to it he would consent
to take the money. The occurrence was
so exceptional that special interest has
been taken in the case, with the result
that the FIRMS credit viii probably be

feet from the ground and long steps iead
to the sidewalk from the LOBBY Just out
side the main auditorium. Brick walls
extend on each side o. these steps for
six or seven feet, ara this proved verit-
able death trap.
Negroes who had reached the top of the

many fell. Before they could move 9TH
ers fell upon them. and in fifteen minutes
there was a struggling. shrieking mass CT
men and women and children piled to a
height of ten feet. This wall of torture
blocked the entrance and the weight Of
the 1,500 persons remaining in the church
was rammed against it. More than twen-
