GET INSIDE.
Your Friends and Neighbors in Au-
gusta Will Show You How.

Rubbing the back won't cure backache.
A liniment may relieve, but can't cure.
Backache comes from the inside-from
the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills get inside
They cure sick kidneys.
Here is Augusta proof that this is so:
W. A. Hanks. Carpenter, living at the
corner of Pearle and Murray Streets,
Augusta Me. saws: Il suffered from
pains in ny back and across my kidney
region for a long time. The trouble was
not constant hut came on by spells and
each attack seemed to be more severe
than the previous one. At times the pains
were SO acute that / had the greatest
difficulty in STOPPING or rngaining an erect
position. If l overexerted myself, sharp
tWinges would pass through my loins
About two years ago when having a
severe attack I was advised by a friend to
give Doan's Kidney Pills a trial and did
SO. They acted exactly as represented
and two boxes cured the attack. l have
had one slight recurrence of the trouble
but Doan's Kidney Pills brought me eff
fective relief. I gladly endorse Doan's
Kidney Pills as a superior remedy, and
advise anyone suffering from kidney
complaint to give them trial.

sALOME OF THE MIDDLE AGES
Like Her of the Twentieth Century
She Danced.

Like Her of the Twentieth Century
She Danced.
Once upon a time there was another
Salome. Not like the passive instrument of
Bible story. much less like the perverted
jade Of modern invention, but a real once
upon a time Salome; haunting, wistfuI,
nalvely grotesque, was the Salome Of the
middle ages, half ghost, half goddess, half
Christian, half pagan, to be pitied, feared
and conciliated. This salome Hans Chris
tian Andersen might have made kin to the
Marsh Kings daughter or Barrie might
have made her a grown up sister of Peter
Pan.
The daughter of Herodias made as deep
an impression on the Imagination of the
early middle ages as she has on that of
the twentieth century, but with this differ
ence, that now fancy is burdened with
weary knowledge OF human degeneracy,
while then it scared wild ana credulous
through the spirit world. In those old days
mar had not been long separated and was
not completely weaned from his heather
gods. The church had only succeeded in
tearing them from their high estate and
transforming them from adored beings
into malign creatures, The church either
became or was from the beginning indul-
gent, and it prudently allowed what It
could not prevent, that heather and Chris
tian tradition should here and there run
together.
Simple folk wished to be on the safe side,
and in the popular mythology there was a
strange mixture Of Greek, Teutonic and
Christian personages. There was even a
cult of Isis still lingering in the middle
ages, The devil was as yet "A person of no
Importance. His peculiar function was
exercised by the deposed gods who, hurt
and indignant, lost their soclable character
and became dark and dreadful powers.

ministry these fallen deitics became evil

Herodlas In her airy wanderings had

both like herself doomed TO ride the storm,
and together with Herodias the leaders Of
the furious host" In their train swept
things to make men cover their heads In
mortal terror. There were suicides display
ing their wounds, creatures riding two
legged horses, men tied on wheels, others
running without heads or carrying their
legs across their shoulders. There were
| specters OF individuality, such as the gray
horse bearing a man booted and spurred,
in a long cloak, with a bugle over his
shoulder, but no head, or the hunter with
face set In his neck, who, followed by dogs
and women, rode a headless black horse
and yelled "hoho! hoho!'
There were restless ghosts with a his

four daughters who had so passionately

were the piteous wailinE souls of infant'
