Nl0I The kidneys Do
Their Unceas1ng Work Keeps y
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when I'M
healthy. some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism. govt.
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
bility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in

hing was in San Francisco last week
on his return from trip East, and
IN discussing the recent contest won
by him said that how difficult the route
was may be estimated from the fact
that for the distance from the Capitol
building in Honolulu to kahuku, the
first checking station, 81 Is miles, the
time allowance was two hours and a
half. Here for the first eight miles
one starts to descend the famous Nuua-
nu Pail, which is a very steep, though
excellent, winding road cut out Of
cliff some 1000 feet and more in height,
by means of which road one descends
to the fiat country on the windward
side of the island known as the Koo-
lau district The road then winds In
and out a few miles back from shore,
until it reaches Kahuku, but in many
places the road is quite rough.
From Kahuku to Haleiwa, the next
checking station, was over a rough and
in many places heavy sand road. From
there the return to Honolulu, thirty
miles distant, began with a 5 per cent
slope for eight miles to the uplands, a
stretch of nerve-racking travel ever

TO accommodate the machine and an
equally perilous descent from the

oriain Of Precious Ores.

Men sometimes dream of enormous
wealth stored deep in the earth, be-
low the reach Of miners; but, accord.
ing to an eminent geologist, there is
little or no ground to believe that val
liable metallic deposits lie very deep
in the earth's crust. Such deposits,
according to this authority, are made
by underground waters, and owing to
the pressure on the rocks at great
depths the waters are confined to a
shell near the surface. With few ex-
ceptions ore deposits become too lean
to repay working below $500 feet.
Nine mines in ten, taking the world as

Silent and Dramatic.

The most dramatic of silent men
was Wallenstein, the antagonist Of
Gustayus Adolphus and the command
er OF The .emperors armies in the Thir-
ty Years war. He insisted that the
deepest silence should reign about him.
His officers took care that no loud con.
versation should disturb their general.
They knew that chamberlain had
been hanged for waking him without
orders and that an officer who would
wear clanking spurs in the command
er's presence had been secretly put
to death. In the rooms of his palace
the servants glided as If they were
phantoms, and dozen sentinels NOV
ed about his tent charged to secure
the silence the general demanded.
Chains were stretched across the
streets in order to guard him against
the disturbance Of sounds. Wallen-
STEMS taciturnity, which made him
shun speech, and his love Of silence,
which caused him to be irritated ut
the slightest noise, were due to his
constitutional temperament. He never
smiled, he never asked advice from
any one, and he could not endure to
be gazed at, even when giving an or
der. The soldiers, when he crossed
the camp, pretended not to see him,
knowing that curious look would
bring them punishment.

the average citizens concern over the
great Office entirely objective. The
American voter who has not had fond
and sneaking dreams OF some day be-
ing president himself must be lacking

lions. or course the chances against
realizing his ambition are about 15,~

A Great Privilege.


The next best thing to being presf-
dent yourself is having your man
there. Inasmuch as only one man can
live in the White House at time. 1t is
this sort Of vicarious occupancy Of the
office that must satisfy the other fif-
teen or twenty millions But what
does that matter to a man who has
really entered into the American spir-
it? Even If he cannot deliver the In
augural address himself he can help
make the man who does, can call him
by his front name and take an init
mate interest In his comings and 60
ings. his family and his policies. It Is
for this that the voter each four years
neglects his business to argue politics.
yells himself hoarse at political rallies
and marches through sun or rain to
elect his favorite. It is great thing
just how great we have not yet meas
ured. 1t gives breath to manhood and
makes the spirit of the nation.
That the president of the United
States has more power than any other
ruler on earth Is so universally recog-
nized that it has become a platitude.
But his sovereignty is delegated and is
under time lock. 1t does not fnhers
in him and his family, but In several
million John Smiths and Tom Joneses,
who collectively are greater than all
presidents and all administrations
whatsoever. II he Is temporary mon
arch, he is a monarch made by the
people. They give and take away.
Theirs is the substance of sovereignty,
Of which he is but the passing symbol.
The nation Is now in one Of Its quad
rennial throes Of choosing new form
into which to incarnate It's spirit,
new figure into whom to breathe the
breath or It's national authority. Who
is the man? Taft7 Bryan? Hughesf
One Of the two Johnsonsg Knox7
Gray? La Follette2 Harmon? For
aker? Fairbanks? Or some unguesseil
candidate to be born Of convention
deadlocks?
Despite the growing spirit OF political
independence, we are still nation
ruled by parties. Undoubtedly the
man who is to succeed Roosevelt win
be named by one Of the two dominant
groups that we label Republican and
Democrat. The first interest. there
fore. centers IN the nomination strug-
gle. which passes through the stages
OF newspaper discussion. caucuses.
