Half the nervousness, half the rrita bility that is so common in everyday life, is really sickness. and in most cases a condition that accompanies kidney trouble.
 It is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid and other poisons, but when the kidneys are sic<- and not doing their duty, the uric acid poison permeates the body, and attacks body. brain and nerves. The irritation causes nervousness, irritablity, headache, dizzy spells: makes you languid, unfit for work and inclined to worry over triiles. Besides, there is nothing more annoying than a bad back, and backache is tine most common sign of kidney trouble. You feel lame and tired in the morning. suffer day and night with a dull aching in the back, and it hurts to stoop or bend or lift.
 Keep your temper cool, and get the kidneys well. No person can feel cheer full and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected. A few doses of Doan s Kidney Pills, taken in the beginning, will set the kidneys right

 A BIRMINGHAM CASE.
 G. w. Collignon, 932 s. 14th street, Bir- mingham, Ala, says: For five years I was troubled a great deal with pains in my back and across the kidneys, which were particularly severe after hard days work and during the past ten years 1 constantly suffered from light attacks of rheumatism from the knees down. The kidney or rheumatic trouble never unftted me for work entirely, but often I did feel as if I could not keep up. I used at least twenty different well known remedies and prescriptions from several doctors, all of which gave me no relief. A friend kindly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills to me and when had used less than one box, all symp- toms of kidney and rheumatic trouble had disappeared. They have so nvigor- ated my general system that I feel sev- eral years younger and do not know when I have felt so good before. Prior to using Doan's Kidney Pills I had nc ambition, and now I take great interest in my york;

Hand Is Mashed.

Roy Horton, white man employed In the yards of the Louisville and Nashville railroad in this city, had his head badly mashed this morning about o'clock. It seems that he was in the act of getting off the engine, when his foot slipped and he was struck by the step. He was taken to Robinson's nhrmary in Vermllon's ambulance, and while his wounds are quite painful 1t is not believed that they will terminate seriously.

 Mary J. Holmes great novel drama tized Lena Rivers,' will be presented at the Bijou the week of Sept 16th There is no questioning the fact that ex- traordinary interest centers in the pdo- duetion of this play. AS a story of life in the south the book has for fifty years had a tremendous vogue and the play adapted from 1t will In all likelihood find favor for many years. Thus far the play has won success and it contains many things that appeal to every theatre goer. The story is pretty and simply told and it's humor is fresh and quaint. Its char acters are deftly drawn and to readers of the book it will be as if they had just stepped out from the printed pages tion of the play is being awaited with much interest.

Statuesque Maude A. Scott has been engaged by Charles H. Yale to play the hero, Carlos. in the 26th edition of 'The Everlasting Devils Auction" Company. Miss Scott is a stately beauty of the Ciib- son type and is in direct contrast to the dashing brunette and the Count Fortune of the play.
 Further contrast can be found in the golden haired Miss Vera Belmont; the American beauty Miss Violet Hilson or the dainty Parisian type of Miss Emma Prager.
 In fact, in conjunction with the prin- cipal dancers, secundos. coryphees and ballerine, who represent almost every nationality from all parts of the globe, it is safe to say that the 26th edition of the Devils Auction has established a con gress of beauty in more ways than one
 The more one seeks for the original source of the mythical legend of the Holy Grail, which is the foundation of Rich ard Wagner's beautiful spectacle of "Parsifal," them ore one becomes bewild- cred at the many different explanations that present themselves. Eminent writ CTS and scholars have presented their in- dividual views, arriving at many differ ent conclusions. They all agree. however. in admitting that the legend in it's va rious forms existed long before Chris- tisnity became so potent a factor in the worlds history. From a close study of
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-09-15

the subject one would come to the be- lief that the legend, in practically the same form, but with a different direct meaning, had been created in pagan lands of the earliest antiquity, and later mad been adapted by the early Christian church in it's mystery plays, and so hand ed down to us in it's present different forms. Certain it is, however that Wag ner must have made close study of the vast material bearing upon the subject, and in the production of "PaNifal" gives us an idyllic story of composit nature that is so exquisltely told and contains such a grand moral lesson that 1t will live and shine wherever Christianity relgns and as long as Christianity endures.

The Value Of Diamonds.

The value of the diamond is at so
much per carat, and up to a certain
limit the value per carat increases as
the size OF the stone increases. When
a carat diamond is quoted at 1925, a
diamond weighing a half a carat is
counted at the rate Of SO per carat.
three-quarter carat diamonds at 500
per carat. one and one-quarter carat
diamonds at $40 per carat, one and
one-half carat diamonds at $50 per
carat, one and three-quarter carat dia-
mondS at $50 per carat, and two carat
stones at 5000 per carat Stones weigh
ing more than two carats sell at about
the same rate as that quoted for two
carat stones, and do not increase as
rapidly owing TO the more limited de
mand for the larger sized stones.-New

CALLING IN PARIS.

You leave your card at the door OF

charge by that peculiarly French func-
tionary. the concierge. Says Professor
Barrett Wendell In Scribners. At
least In Paris. the greater part OF
French people live In large houses con-
tanning a number of apartments with
a common entrance and staircase.

porter. with his family. Their duty,
among other things. Is TO keep strict
watch on whoever goes i'm or out. and
ut least one OF them. often the porter :
wife or half grown daughter. is always
at hand
The chief popularity Of their temper
ament seems to be Unsuitable appetite.
At whatever hour Of day or evening
you call on a concierge you are sure TO
find somebody eating or just risen
from table. and the atmosphere inhab'
tied by this bustling parsonage seems
Immortality laden with the fumes of
something recently boiled.
No matter whether you call on a
friend who lives in some unpretentious
out OF the way place or on one who
inhabits something like a palace, the
concierge is always about the same.
You can detect little difference be-
tween those In charge Of important
doors and OF insignificant. They are
as like as house flies. OF course there
are private houses in Paris. with regu
lar domestic servants such as you
would find anywhere. but these. grand
or simple. are so unusual that you re
member the concierge as everywhere
standing between you and further hui
man intercourse.
In response to your card. which the
concierge duly sees delivered, comes
card. often with a note. In return. If
as is generally the case, this acknowl
edgment OF your existence contains al
