CASUAL PHILOSOPHY.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is
better than medicine.
Learn to attend strictly to your own
business-a very important point.
Learn the art OF saying kind and
encouraging things, especially to the
young.
Learn to avoid all ill-natured re-
marks and everything calculated TO
create friction.
Learn to tell good story. A well
told story is as welcome as a sun
beam in a sick room.
Learn to stop grumbling. II you
cannot see any good in the world
keep the bad to yourself
Learn to keep your troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy to
care for your ills and sorrows.
Learn to greet your friends with a
smile. They carry too many frowns
in their own hearts to be bothered
with any Of yours.
Learn to hide your aches and
pains under a pleasant smile. No one
cares whether you have the earacne,
headache. or rheumatism.
MISTAKES are only funny when
they don't hurt
Many woman never listens to
her husband TIL he begins to talk
in his sleep
Every man should know his duty.
Then he can recognize it in time TO
dodge.
Some people waste a lot Of time
wondering how they should treat
their interiors.
Many a bachelor lives to bless the
fellow who married the girl he was
in love with.
When some people drop a hint It
sounds like a ton of coal going down
the chute
Heaven will probably make some
people so dizzy they will want to
jump Off.
Two fools and one wise man: how
foolish the wise man looks-to the
fools.
The almighty dollar may be talnt-
ed, but few Of us win ever catch
the infection.
Appearances may be deceiying,
but Appearances plus talk come pret-
ty near indeXing a man.

VAUDEVILLE

The average theater-goer wants to be amused when be exchanges his time and money for d seat in an audience, and the easier the entertainment comes the better he enjoys it. No more ener- getic dancers have. eyer been seen Oh the stage of the Jacques than the So- ciety Beles From the moment the curtain rises on their act until the whirlwind finish comes these five tire less young women exploit their nim- bleness of foot with an abandon that makes the theory of perpetual motion very possible. There is no waiting for applause, no long changes of garb to kill time and no let mp in the action. The entire number is go, go. go. and then go some more. The result is a popularity few performers win and an appreciation far more uncommon even than that The same thing is true Of still if it were not for an advance booking at this theater for another at traction.

Charming Pollock's new four-act play. Tn the Bishops Carriage" was pre-. scented to q fair sized audience. The plot of the play did not follow the story strictly to the letter. but while it took considerable freedom with that story it produced all the better effects as a play. There was a moral attaceed to the play. too, which made the vari- 0us scenes all the more interesting ans. at times intense. The plot was simply tbe reclaiining Of a young and pretty girl from the life of thief to that of d respectable woman, and that re- clamation accomplished by clever so- ciety man. who had fallen in love with her. The company was brilliant one iii every respect and contained such members as Arthur Byron, George Castor, Gran Stewart. E.%J. Ratcliffe Mabel Taliafcrro. Helen Ware, Emma Lathrope and Katherine Reyes. The scenic effects were beautiful ill the ex- treme. as were the costumes. and the performance was a most meritoriOus and instructive one.

WATCH FOR FRIDAY NIGHTS ADV.

crops the farmer faced peculiar condi- cred with sunshine and his pathway was not strewn with roses. The early part of the season was beset with many adverse circumstances that tried the iron heart of the sturdy plowman. How ever, this extraordinary harvest was not so much due to meteorological con. ditions as to the skill, energy and sci entific methods pursued by the farmers themselves. There is no place in the world where agricultural practices have reached so high a scale of develop. ment as in the United States.
 The American farmer has not been handicapped by the traditions of cen turies as have the farmers of the old world. He has been steadily hoeing his own row. With the help of the gov ernment and state experts at the agri. cultural colleges and experiment. sta tons and the dissemination of scientific knowledgeand the exchange of practical experiences through the agricultural press the farmers have advanced more rapidly in technical, specific and prac- tical knowledge than any other class. A generation ago a season no more ia. vorable than that experienced in 1905 from meteorological standpoint, would have resulted in only moderate crop yield, far short of the present magnifi. cent showing.
 Although nature was by no means in a generous mood the past season, our farmers have wrested from her results that would have been impossible. even under the most favored conditions. in the days of their sires or grandsires."

A GRAVE DANGER.

To neglect backache, which is very often the only outward sign that na- ture gives of serious trouble in the kidneys, is to give free reign to seri- ous disorders that may end in dropsy, gravel, diabetes or Bright's disease
 The kidneys filters of the blood lie just beneath the small of the back, on either side of the spine. As soon as there is any inflammation or conges- tion in the kidneys, you notice feel ing of uneasiness in the back. then that dull. throbbing pain. changing to sharp twinges when any sudden strain is brought upon the back. It is hard to straighten after stooping, you feel lame in the morning.
 There will be no danger at any time. however. if you begin using Deans Kidney Pills as soon as you notice backache or any irregularity of the urine. This medicine is a compound of pure roots and herbs that act direct ly on the kidneys. curing, healing and strengthening them. It cures the cause and backache. headache, languor dis appear.

FOOTBALL AT CAPITAL.
Forty Acre Field In Potomac Park, Washington. Being Constructed.

President Roosevelt's interest in foot. ball is likely to work out a fine public improvement which may have a bear ing on future army and navy games. says a Washington special to the New York Times. The dissatisfaction with the facilities of the last game at Prince ton has accentuated the need of a large football field in Washington. and the idea urged on Colonel Cromwell by the president last fall of making such e field in the Potomac park is now be- ing worked out. Where is now wide expanse of water may some day be the amphitheater for the games between the West Pointers and the "middies" from Annapolis. A huge steam dredge is at work pouring sand into the space near the pretty park at the Washing ton approach to the new Pennsylvania railway bridge. and 1t is promised that by next fall the scheme will be com pleted.
 The whole field contains forty acres. and it will be laid of and beautified. roads constructed and provision made for grand stands and all the needed conveniences for a large gathering of people. Sand. mud and gravel from the bottom of the Potomac Is being pumped upon the low grounds through a long line of piping and the water is then allowed tO run off. leaving the solid material behind. Next spring these grounds will be laid of for foot ball. baseball. tennis and other athletic games. The Pennsylvania railroad will build fine local station near this part of the Potomac park. The place Is already accessible by several elec- tric railroads. It Is an ideal spot for such purpose. the view of over the Potomac and the hills of Arlington be- ing one of noted beauty.

 therefore. fully able to cope with the serious and alluring task of illustrat- ing Shakespeare. Their work last sea son was replete with sincerity. nove:ty and freshness. These qualities are prominent in all the roles they under take. for both artists are too keen of intellect to follow the time-worn tra- ditions which have come down from older players, and they may be count ed on to give their own original char acterizatiOns even though they be at variance with others which have been in many instances accepted as author itative.
