You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid of the back

If the kidneys are well and strong,
the rest Of the system is pretty sure to
be in vigorous health.

it was hard for him to keep up and

For Black Eyes.

It Is often the case that people meet Sith accidents and bruises that cause dIsfiguring dlscolorations, from which they suffer not little embarrassment and annoyance. It is worth while to know that there Is a simple remedy and one quite within the reach of every one. Immediately after the acci' dent mix an equal quantity of cap slcum aunum with mucilage made Of gum arabic. To this add few drops of glyceriu. The bruised surface should be carefully cleansedNan dried, then painted all over with the capsicun preparation. Use camel's hair brush and allow 1t to dry, then put on the second or third coat as soon as the first is entirely absorbed. A medical journal is authority for the statement that if this course Is pursued imnedi ately after the injury discoloration oi the bruised tissue will be wholly pre- vented. It is also said that this rene dy Is unequaled as cure for rheuma tism or stiffness of the neck.

CANARY BIRDS.
The Finest of Them Are Raised In
 the Harz Mountains.

The Finest of Them Are HGtHed Tn
 the HRrE Mountains.
 The chief breeding ground for cana ries was formerly the Harz noun tains, but of late years only the finest singers are reared in that district. The trade was transferred to Eichsfelde, In the province of Hanover, where poor weavers breed the cheaper sort. The most important market for these gold en birds is the United States, which takes quite 100000 birds year. Great Britain comes next, with some 50000, and is followed by Brazil, Chile and the Argentine Republic.
 The principal dealers have large fac tories which can turn out material for 1000 bird cages daily. The peasants take this away to their homes and there make up the cages. Attendants, who each have charge of 1000 birds In separate cages, take canaries across the Atlantic and on their return voy- age bring back Mexican and Cuban parrots for the European markets.
 About 25O,COO cauaries are bred ev- cry year in Germany, and their value, some EJ0,OOO, goes chiefly into the pockets of the peasants.-London Tele- graph.
