A good solution for waving straight
hair is the white of an egg mixed with
an equal amount of rose water and a.
few drops of some fragrant perfume.
Then the hair should be slightly sham
pooed with a mixture before wrapping
around the curriers'. Left until thor
oughIy dry, then brushed gently. the
hair will be wavy. with a soft sheen
on it. besides looking light and fluffy,
and the wave will remain permanent
in spite of rain and fog.

Half the nervousness, half the irrl- 4abilIty that is so common .n every day life. is really sickness, and In most cases a condition that accom- panies kidney trouble.
 It Is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid ana other nofsons. but when the kidneys are sick, snd not doing their duty, the uric acid nnfson permeates the body, and at Tacks body, brain and nerves. The srrftation causes nervousness. irrita- biIitv. headache. dizzy spells: makes vou ianRuid, unfit for work, and in- cIined to worry over triaes. Besides there is nothing more annoying than . had back, and backaohe is the most common sign of kidney trouble. You feeI lame and tired in the morning suffer day and night with a dull ach- ing In the back. and 1t hurts to stoop or bend or lift.
 Keep your temper cool. and get the Kidneys well. No person can feel cheerful and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills, taken in the beginning, will set the kidneys right.
 Continued treatment cures cases of long standing.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid ueys only, and contain no poisonous nor habit forming drugs. They re- ifeve congestion and inflammation of fhe kidneys or bladder heal and cure ehe kidney tissues, drive off danger gus uric poisonsp dissolve and remove.

 MONTGOMERY CASE.
 h Sn inbaum. Optical Specialist, liv. ing at 5 Bell Street. Montgomery, Ala. says; T was for three months hardly aoIe to go about. I suffered from Kidney disease and Rheumatism. had intense pains across my kidneys and Tn my limbs. Sometimes the pain would be so bad that I could not sleep at night and my kidneys were disordered; the secretions. if left standing, deposit Ing reddish sediment. When I rose In the morning I would be tired out and my back and joints so stiff that 1t was misery to bend or stoop. I used a number of rheumatic remedies and also tried plasters on my back. but was not relieved. When I commenced using Doan's Kidney Pills. was in bad shape physically. but soon began to improve and in a sh ort time I was all right again.
 The kidney disturbance, the ach- ing pain in my kidneys and the pains in my joints completely left me so that at the present time I am in good health. My health has improved won derfully since I was cured of this kid ney disease for I have since learned that rheumatism is due to kidney trouble. I have a good appetite and have increased in weight almost 20 pounds. Doan's Kidney Pills have my sincerest endorsement"

 An hour or more passed before he heard hurried steps approaching. He sprang to the door.
 "Well?"

 'I know! I Know" he answered in a voice so calm that his companion wondered.
 When they came into the room Margaret was dozing. When here eyes opened and she found her husband beside her bed there spread over her a glad look; which alas! soon changed to one of pain. She motioned to him to bend down. He knelt and put his head beside her on the pillow; his arms went tenderly round her as though he would shield her from all harm. Her voice came very low and in broken gasps: she was summoning all her strength that she might speak
 My dear, dear husband. I am so sad at leaving you You have made me so happy and I love you so! Forgive me, dear. for the pain know you will suf fer when I am gone! And oh. Stephen, I know you will cherish our little one-yours and mine-when I am gone. She will have no mother; you will have to be father and mother, too"
 "I will hold her in my very heart S core. my darling. as I hold you!" He could hardly speak from emotion. She went on:

For an instant there came a chill to the mothers heart that her hopes had been so far disappointed; but then came the 5reaction of joy that her husband, her baby's father, was pleased. There was a a heavenly dawn of red on her pale face as she drew her husbands head down to her and kissed him.

 One night a squad of officers from their camp at the Pride quarters came over and after talking to my father some time asked for some meat. He sent my sister Mary with a servant to unlock the smoke house. The meat hung high. particularly the hams, and In trying to get the most and the best, one of them fell and liked to have killed himself They picked him and their meat up and went to the negro quarters and spent the night.

They would furnish canvas spread for fleet of 5000, which is just about the total number of the documented sailing vessels of the United States; and they are not all full-rigged ships, either. So, 1t is very conservative to say that all our dishrags converted into sails would supply all our sail ing vessels, and also their reserve stores.

mont lost the second game to Clarks-
burg Fourth OF July afternoon. The
game was pitchers battle through
out, and with some kind of support
behind King 1t might have gone into
extra innings. Clarksburg started
the game by scoring one run in the
first inning on Kings error, ]. law
sons sacrifice and Clark's single. In
the fourth they scored their second
and last run of the game on Con-
oway's single. McAleese's sacrifice
and McGinty's two-base hit. The
game was slow, and aside from the
pitching OF King and Fletcher was
uninteresting. Rain. which fell as
the teams came on the field at 8
o'clock, delayed the game and left
the field in a soft condition. Man
ager "Reddy" Mack was put on the
field for protesting a decision in the
fourth inning. Score:
