uance Of their periodicals, The publishers
may continue to send them until all ar.
rearages are paid.
3. II subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their periodicals from the post
office to which they are directed they are
responsible until they have settled their
bills and ordered them discontinued.
A. II subscribers move to other places
without informing the publishers, and

dress they are responsible.
o. The courts have decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the post
office or removing and leaving them I'M
called for is prima face evidence of in
territorial fraud.

A large part of the poison created
within the body, or separated from
the food We eat, Is passed off by
the kidneys through the urine. 1t
is very important that this filter
ing work of the kidneys should go
on undisturbed, otherwise the body
cannot remain in a condition of
health.
Very little causes are likely to
set the kidneys wrong, and kidney
diseases come on SO quietly that
at first they are not noticed. There
is little pain, other than backache,
and a few outward signs besides
irregularity of the passages of the
urine. If the trouble is continually
neglected, however, it soon reaches
a stage of constant backache, pain
and distress, and there is no more
terrible affection than Bright's dis
ease, which may be the final out
come.
1t is very necessary to keep the
kidneys well, and there is one rem
edy that can be always depended
on-Doan's Kidney Pills. This
remedy begins it's work first by
cleansing and toning up the kid
neys, arousing them to action and
increasing the flow of urine, so
that urea, uric acid, and sediment
are washed from the kidneys and
bladder and driven out of the sys-
TEN. The treatment rebuilds and
invigorates the kidney tissue, as

The remedy. is also certain pro-
lection from those colds and chills
that settle on the kidneys, and
from bladder troubles that follow
over-indulgence in beer, spirits or
tea. The best proof we can offer
of the merit of Doan's Kidney Pills
Is the testimony of residents Of
this city. Thousands have used it,
and scores are ready to tell you
their experience.

A CHORUS GIRL TELLS
HOW CHORUS GIRS LIVE
BY Jeanette Paterson.
Written Especially for The Press.

The life of the chorus girl is not
all champag ne and autos. There
are chorus girls, to be sure, who
are surrounded with everything
that the heart can desire or money
procure. But these are not in the
majority. Life for the average
chorus girl, who is an earnest
worker and not primarily a seeker
after a good time, is serious pro-
position.
The salary of a chorus girl is
Just about enough for her to live
upon. By economy she can put by
enough to tide her over the period
when she must be idle-when all
is going out and nothing coming in.
She gets from SIS to $40 a week
while she is employed, and she
must see to 1t that it lasts he over
the rainy day.
When a company first starts out
each girl has to pay out of her
salary for two pair of tights, a
couple of pairs of stockings, two
pairs of gloves, and the same
number of shoes. Her railroad
fare is paid, but all else, her board
