Cures Eriuht's Disease.

Let those afflicted with one form or
another of Bright's disease take heart!
Here comes from some of the grand
mothers OF the middle west and
southwest sure cure" 1t was COM
monty used three-quarters of a GEN.
tury ago. Old DIR. Tip passes 1t along
the line 1t comes to him straight
from granddaughter of one OF the
grandmothers, relation OF Mrs.
James G, Blaine: Get some dried ap-
pies, the kind We used to have at
home. not the evaporated kind. Pour
boiling water over a kettleful of them
and let them steep, covering the kettle
tightly. When the water has absorbed
the strength of the apples pour it on
and drink it-lots of it-as much as
you can hold; keep on sleeping apples
and keep on drinking the water. 1t
will soon give you new pair of kid
neys. Then you can laugh at all other
ailments, which will soon disappear
when your kidneys resume opera

When Woman liant youna.

The report is that a local religious
Institution which is for young wom-
en-" has drawn the deadline of youth
at 35. Every woman over that age
will be marked % and requested to
skiddoo. This is painful. 1t is unkind,
What is worse, it is impracticable. We
are glad the task is to be performed
by women. No man nor set of men
would ever have dared tackle such a
problem-not they. This is simply
another example OF woman's inhu,
manity to woman.
We have been told for many ages
that woman Is as old as she looks
and man Is as old as he feels. Just
now. We say it with regret, most wom-
en- look like 60 and most men feel like
Methuselah. But the general rule
seems good one. 1t Is plain, un-
palatable fact that women will deceive
as to their age as long as possible and
then openly lie about it. There are
many women who were born during
the ravages OF the civil war who still
claim sweetly to be in the thirties

BETTER THAN UNITED srAres,
samland, 10 10 Asserted, Would Make
Good Name.

A certain class OF minds has been at
work for more than 100 years irving
to construct an original designation
in single word for the United States

at hrst to call the republic Columbia,
but no one wanted that, and finally
New Granada, in South America, came
along and appropriated the title.

christen the country "Usonia and the
people "Usonians." by derivation from

who see no impropriety whatever in
giving a continental designation to
the republic and its citizens

DON'T Envy the Rich,

The real virtue of riches is that
they add to the picturesqueness OF
life. Millionaires and even semi-mil-
lionaires do a great deal toward bright
cnins the landscape, and we ought not
only to suffer them to live, but to be
grateful to them. Who would will
ingly miss the gay pageant down
Fifth avenue on a spring afternoon.

glad decoration of well dressed peo-
PIE to the gray level of the willing
poor? No; the world is best consti-
tuted just as it is, with all the Varie-
ties o. the people, and all the varying
scales of being and of dressing. Only
let the man not yet doomed to being
a millionaire realize that, like the pur-
pie COW. ii is better to see than be one.
And joy. after all. is really and truly
not TO be bought with money. nor to
be found in any distant corner of the
earth. but is, in very deed, as the sages
have known in all ages, the kingdom
of heaven within.-Harper's Magazine.

WHEN THE BED GOES ROUND
But Smith Was Too Wise to Wait on
the Procession.

That was an amusing story about
the congressman who caught his bed
the fourth time it came around. 1t
reminded me- continued the narrator
of the first time l heard the bed
phrase. 1t happened in HarristurA,
where l was then stationed, and it
happened to a legislator whom | shap
call Smith
AT the first session Smith became
famous for his ability to comfortably
carry more liquor than any other man
in the legislature. AT the opening of
the second session some Philadel-
phians got together and put up Job
on Smith. They arranged relays. 30
that when one party had enough an
other should take hold. and thus keep
going until they had Smith down and
out. Well, they began with Smith
one evening, and after two relays had
succumbed their successors noted
with much satisfaction that Smith
was mixing his beverages-they
didn't know that was his custom, and
he fooled them all The bout con
tinued all night and all of the next
day, and when the second evening
came Smith was the only man able
to get away unaided.
Several days later | asked Smith
how he got along after he reached his
hotel When | got into my room"
he replied, Il saw a procession of
beds coming in my direction. l
grabbed the first one, fell into it. and
woke up the next afternoon Pitts.
