WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
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
unhealthy some part of this impure
matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms-pains in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin: rheuma-
tism, govt, gravel, disorders of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness,
regular heart, debility, drowsiness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc.
But if you keep the filters right you
will have no trouble with your kid
neys.
Mrs. A H. White, living corner of
Chelan avenue and Second street,
Wenatchee, Wash, says: Il have
used Doans Kidney Pills upon sew
eral occasions, and from the results
l have derived l know that they can
be depended upon for toning up and
strengthening the kidneys. | was

Sermons in Stones.

Leisure is sweet to those who have
earned it, but burdensome to those
who get it for nothing.
A sunny, cheerful heart changes a
world of gloom into a paradise of
beauty.
One name heart makes him king
in a hovel-another's a wretch in a
palace.
No education is adequate to the
needs of life which does not produce
decision of character, courage, self
control and perseverance.
Happiness is means rather than
an end. 1t creates energy, promotes
growth and nutrition, and prolongs

We should treat our detractors and
calumniators as Mirabeau did. When

Things that Make Worry Impossible.
Good, robust health is a great enc
my of worry A good digestion, a
clear conscience, and sound sleep kill
a lot of worry.
Worry is but one phase of fear
and always thrives best in abnormal
conditions. 1t cannot get much of a
hold on a man with superb phys
ique, a man who lives a clean, sane
life. 1t thrives on the wcak-those
of low vitality.
1t is not very difficult thing to
make worry impossible. Many peo-
pie make it impossible for most kinds
of disease to get a hold on them be-
cause they have such strong disease
resisting force. Disease always at
lacks us at our weak point.
The great desideratum is to keep
ones physical, mental, and moral
standards so high that these disease
germs, the worry germ, the anxious
germ cannot gain a footing in our
brain. Our resisting power ought TO
be so great that it would be impossi-
BILE for our enemies to gain an en-
trance into the brain or body.
To keep ourselves perfectly free
from our worry enemies, everything
we do must be done sanely. No mat
ter how honest we may be or how
hard We may try to get on, if we are
not sane in our eating, in our ever
else, in our thinking, in our Sleep
ing and living generally, we leave the
door open to all sorts of tronuble.
There are a thousand enemies trying
to find a door open by which hey
can gain entrance into our syS-
and attack rs at our vulnerable point.

Our Anglo-SaXon Blood.

Recently two French editors VINO
have been studying us have had views
to express of things American. These
observers speak of what they saw
here. and they apparently looked on
only to admire. Another French stu
dent of American life believes he can
tell us what we are and exploits his
opinions in the Review of the World.
leading literary organ issued at
Paris. In this article the writer. one
Viscount dAvenel. attempts TO prove
by long array of statistics that the
Americans of the present day are Brit
ish and AnGlo-SaXOn merely in their
language. The point is made that the
population of our large towns consists
in the main of European continental
elements. Chicago is cited as an eE-
ample OF an American city where for
eigners heavily outnumber the natives
To quote:
The descendants of the 100000 Anglo
SaXons by whom the United States was
populated in 1880 form no more than an
insignificant minority in the bosom of the
present gigantic republic. They will end
by occupying no more permanent place
than the aborigines whom they SO obsti-
nately depressed and who are now dying
off on their western reserves. While these
latter are perishing in misery their con-
querors are threatened with extinction
through their very prosperity.
H., IA Nm
large cities do attract foreigners. So
does Paris. and the same can be said
of London. But our country Is COM
paratively new, and foreigners orig
iHally found great profit here for the
skilled handicrafts Their descendants
are here, and they monopolize some
trades and special lines of commerce.
Naturally there is heavy foreign ele-
ment In every American center which
offers old world talent chance to
make quick gains. On the other hand,
an Englishman, basing his argument
upon the prevalence Of Anglo-Saxon
names among the leaders In all depart
ments Of American life, declared not
long ago that the dominating influence
here is welded by men Of British an
cestry, and Anglo-SaXon family names
do not represent the totality Of Anglo
Saxon blood coursing in American
veins. The early immigrants married
among the natives to a greater extent
than the immigrants of today, and
there is much good British blood here
masked under a name imported from
continental Europe. The last census
showed less than 100000 souls in
this country born on the continent and
less than 100000 born to parents
who were not natives of this country
nor of any of the British countries.
The contention of viscount d'Avenel
Is that the last of the Americans will
come as surely as 1.-THE Last Of the
Mohicans." But there appear to be
about 100000 people here now OF
Anglo-Saxon blood, pure for the most
part, and some millions more as thor
oughly American in every f1ber as the
original American stock.

THE INDEPENDENCE PARTY.

Born Of egotism, vaulting ambition,
wounded vanity and frustrated hopes,
William Randolph Hearst's indie
pendence Party at the city of Chicago,
in the state Of Illinois, United States
Of America, July 28th, 1908. The
accoucheur at it's birth was the same
Mr.. Hearst, and the wise men who
came from the east to see the thing
were John Temple Graves, Thomas L.
Hisgen and Charlie Walsh. The first
and the later employees Of the same
Mr.. Hearst. The ceremonies were
opened by speech by Mr.. Hearst.
The speech contained some pointed
things-a few fairly good epigrams
and many revamped platitudes. It
contains nothing very new, and few
things especially desirable. There are
some good points in it, however, but
like the gold in the rolling waves of
the sea, they do not amount to much.
This is probably the last convention
of the independence party, unless Mr..
Hearst is willing for the qualification
of his own vanity to furnish the
money to keep the enthusiasm. The
party is not needed-but if there were
need for it, the men who launched
this party are not men Of such heroic
mould as to breathe the breath Of life
into an organization that will live.
The motive and the purposes are
lacking. And it will die because of
that fact.--The Issue.

to be impaled. Mr.. Watson took part
in the nominating campaign, and now
that the convention has acted he is
rendering signal service to the
nominees of that convention, a demo-
cratic convention, it is true, but one
which grew out of a white primary
that did not bind the voter except as
to the nominees Of that primary"

and all the other eminent authors and
philosophers who contribute to the
Hearst publications. The brilliant
flash of the Gravesian eyes, like a
beam from some immovable, I'M
quenchable intellectual lighthouse,
leads them on to higher and better
things. And the steady thump of the
Gravesian heart-sounding, like some
mighty tocsin, the death knell Of
Privilege, of Pusillanimity, of Pred
atory Pelf-gives them hope and
courage.
We promise the Hon. Mr.. Graves a
hearty welcome to our fair city
should he visit US. If the schemes of
reform his mind has conceived and
formulated should be put into effect,
gladness would reign in this tear
soaked world. The pay of a day
laborer would be $1,000 day, with a
pension of $4,000 day when he was
out of work. Membership in the Unit
ed States Senate would be felony,
punishable by death. The heavens
would leak molasses. The whole
Atlantic would be full Of American
battleships. Car conductors would be
doctors of philosophy. The circula-
ton of the New York American would
be IOOO,OOO,OOOOOO,OOO day. Only
the millionaires Of the land would be
unhappy, for by Mr.. Graves inexor-
able decree they would have to go to
jail, friendless and shirtless, to break
stone in the hot sunlight for two and
half meals a day.
What pity the country is so un-
appreciative as not to elect Mr..
Graves to something! Mr.. Bryan's
theories would usher in the millen-
mum, but Mr.. Graves reforms would
make permanent heaven Of this old
earth.-New York Sun.
