THE PENALTY OF OvERWORK.

Work has been mans lot since the creation, but day of toll should not have its penalty of pain. Why is 1t. then, you ask, that backache SO often follows? It is because the modern tendency is to overwork, to tear Aown faster than nature can rebuild. An unnatural strain is thrown upon the vital organs. and more especially upon the kidneys. which have the work of Altering the blood free of waste and poison.
 The heavy tax of overwork-the strain upon the back that is 90 com mon to many trades and occupations, is too great. The kidneys begin to fail In their work, and there is a double danger to health. The poison ous matter collects in the system, and the kidneys themselves begin to break down.
 Pain In the back is only a warning of trouble in the kidneys. An infam- nation has set in. and a disordered condition of the urine soon becomes apparent.
 Too much or too little uriEe. with . constant desire to void the secre- tons; any noticeable deviation from the normal colors the appearance of c sandy sediment, proves . disor-

 Swell Dinner.
HER FIRST SOCIAL EVENT.

Feminine Finaneier Celebrates Her Re-
 moval From Hoboken to Fashionable
 Hotel - Daushter's Reported Fianee
 Among tho Guests.
 New York, May 27. = Mrs, Hetty Green gave a dinner at the Hotel Pla- "a for sixteen persons, paying $20 a plate for each guest. The floral dec orations cost $50, while the music and fees to the walters and a battery of bellboys, who guarded the entrance to the private dining hall, cost another $50.
 It was the first social event of the kind in which Mrs. Green ever figured She planned the dinner some ten days ago and requested that all mention of it be kept secret.
 Mrs. Green and her daughter, Sylvia, received the guests at the entrance to the state department on the second floor overlooking the entrance to Gen. tral park The dinner, for appoint ments and quality, has not been sur passed by any given at the Plaza.
 Among the guests were Countess An nie Leary, Rear Admiral Ide and Mrs. Ide. Mir and Mrs. Amory Carhart. Mir. and Mrs. Rowland Pell and Matthew Astor Wilks. whose engagement to Miss Green was reported recently.
 Dinner of the Best.
 'I expect to entertain sixteen friends on the 26th," Mrs. Green told the hotel management. T want the dinner to be of the best
 The chef started to work on the din- ner, but he was somewhat handicap ped by not knowing the limit per plate. Mrs. Green was asked if she would give an estimate of how much she cared to pay. Twenty dollars plate will serve a beautiful dinner" Americas wealthiest woman was told.
 Then serve it, please. And please again, want a good dinner"
 The long table was decorated with red carnations and ferns Mrs. Green inspected the work with care.
 'The effect is very pleasing" she told the hotel employees. "I think you are doing the work very well. The carnation is a simple flower, but beautiful. You remember that it was the flower of Mckinley" she, added.
 Wines at the Dinner.
 One of the surprising features of the dinner was the serving of champagne along with other wines.
 Mrs. Green was asked if she cared for wine.
 Why notT' she is quoted as reply ing, with some asperity. Some of my guests will enjoy the wine Let it be served" Then Mrs. Green took an attendent into her confidence to the extent of saying: Tt is too bad that I cannot enjoy my friends, now that I am growing old. without so much ques- tioning of my every action. The news- paper men bothered mo for a time. Now it is the turn of the magazine men. My daughter cannot leave the hotel without finding a battery of pho- on hand The people seem to forget that the Greens come from one of the oldest New York families. hope to greet many of my old friends Tt the hotel. and hope to do it with put their being embarrassed by crowds of curious people,"
