Do for YOU Every Reader of the ''Globe' May Have

1t used to be considered that only urinary and
bladder troubles were to be traced to the kid
neys, but now modern science proves that nearly
all diseases have their beginning in the disorder
of these most important organs.
The kidneys filter and purify the blood - that
is their work.
Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out
of order, you can understand how quickly your
entire body is affected, and how every organ
seems to fail to do its duty.
If you are sick or feel badly" begin taking
the great kidney remedy, DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, because as your kidneys are well
they will help all the other organs to health. A
trial Will convince anyone
Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible
for many kinds of diseases, and if permitted to
continue much suffering with fatal results are
sure to foHoW. Kidney trouble irritates the
nerves. makes you dizzy, restless, sieepless and
irritable. Makes you pass water often during the
day and obliges you to set up many times dur
ing the night. Unhealthy kidneys cause rheu-
matism, gravel, catarrh of the bladder, pain or
dull ache in the back, joints and muscles; makes
your head ache and back ache, causes indges-
ton, stomach and liver trouble you get a sallow
yellow complexion, makes you feel as though
you had heart trouble; you may have plenty of
ambition, but no strength; get weak and waste
away.
The cure for these troubles is Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the world famous kidney remedy
In taking Swamp Root you afford natural help
TO Nature, for SWamp-Root is the most perfect
known to medical science.
II there is any doubt in your mind as to your
condition take from your urine on rising about
four ounces, place it in a glass or bottle and LET
1t stand twentyfour hours. If on examination
1t is milky or cloudy, if there is a brick-dust
settling, or If small particles float about in it,

SWamp-Root is pleasant to take and is used
IN the leading hospitals recommended by ply
stctans in their private practice, and is taken bv

So much enthusiasm has followed the announcement of "The Show Girl's' return appearance at Polls on Tuesday, evening that it is expected there will be an, unusually heavy de- mand for seats when they are placed on sale Monday evening. The local management has had to put up sdn guarantee in order to secure this sec ond engagement because of the great pressure on Mir Rice to give others a last glimpse of ''The Show GirT' pre- vious to her sailing abroad in the lat ter part of this month. but so many requests have been made for their re turn that 1t was believed safe to pay the big guarantee demanded No mus ical comedy played here this season, if, indeed, at any time. made such a splendid impression on the audience that witnessed 1t. and this is only the experience it has since had in Boston and New York. where it has had all other musical comedies, in theatrical parlance, skinned to death.'

MANS SEWING AND woMAN's.
One Cardinal Diference Between Them, That Is, Woman's
 Way Is Better.

GA good seamstress never takes long threads
 "Thus Mrs. Billtops,'' said MT. Bill tops; ''and if anybody is qualified to speak on such subject, she is," re- lates the New York Sun.
 Now, I have done more or less sewing myself in the course of my life in one situation or another, and I always took, as I still do, a long thread. I believe that most men would do just the same thing, take good big needleful.
 But women, it seems, or good seamstresses, anyway, never take long threads, and I am informed that, besides finding in the short thread certain specific advantages, they can sew as long a seam with a short thread as man can with a long thread.
 'eThis they accomplish simply by greater accuracy in their work. The man with a needle and thread takes in cloth on either side of the seam regardless. In one stitch he may take in just the right amount, in the next stitch he may exceed that limit by sixteenth or an eighth of an inch, or more, and the way in which that manner of sewing uses up thread is astonishing.
 "The woman never does anything of that sort. She takes in just enough cloth and no more, and so gets over as much ground with a short thread as man does with a long one.
 But the specific advantages of the short thread over the long one are many and great. There is less lia- bility of short threads kinking; there is less likelihood of the short threads bight catching on fold or bunch of the cloth.
 ''The arm of the sewer doesn't have to be swung so far in drawing the short thread through after the needle, and so the sewing requires less physical exertion. Finally, and greatest advantage of all, by sewing with short thread more work can be accomplished in given, time.
 ''So as between the long thread, or mans way, and the short thread, or woman's way of sewing, there can be no doubt which is the better"

It is sometimes quite task to get the lions to enter these travelling cages, as they under stand and don't fancy the change from
 the roomy den to the small and re- stricted cages and they make objec- tions that sometimes have to be over come in strenuous manner. The spectators will enjoy this proceeding of transfer, it is promised, almost as much as the perform ance in the den, and Madam Adgie hopes there will be large number of them present to en- joy it. To follow the lions next week Manager Poli has decided to turn to comedy as his main feature, pro- viding Lewis McCord and company as his headliners. There are no better comedy players in vaudeville than this company, and with them will be many other comedy stars. such as Lew flaw kins, Weston and Allen. and others, making a very strong array of enter tainers.

 Several men attempted to capture the animal, but he proved to be too nimble and amused himself by hang ing on to the register strap and pull ing the feather from a woman's hat, She sent up an unearthly yell, while the monkey went back to his perch on the cash register and began to ring up fares. After a good deal of coaxing Sanders managed to capture him.
 Get of the car," cried the indig- nant conductor.

 Once more the car was in an uproar, the air rent with the women's shrieks. The parrot was finally caught, after being stunned by 8 blow on the head. Sanders and his pets were hustled off without.ceremony and thecar resumed its journey to Jamaica.
