WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps u
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once very
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-pain in the back, headache, ner-
vousness, hot, dry, skin, rheumatism,
govt, gravel, disorders of the eye
sight and hearing, dizziness, irregular
heart, debility, drowsiness, dropsy,
deposits in the urine, etc. But if you
keep the filters right you will have
no trouble with your kidneys.
w. T. Myers, living at 101 Lamar
street, Americas, Ga, says: Il have
used Doans Kidney Pills and have no
hesitancy in recommending them.

The Flowing Skirts

The street skirt may be as plain
and short as one desires it, although
the new length reaches to the instep.
The house skirt, however, must be
long and flowing, with graceful lines
and perfect fit.
It carries little trimming, which
should be a relief to the majority OF
women, although for some unknown
reason they seem to delight in add
ing other fabrics to skirt.
The smart skirt has seam down
the centre and double box plat al
fine back. 1t is high-waisted, provid-
ing it's own belt, though it Otter
carries a sash of liberty satin
This sash, by the way, will not be
worn. except by a few faddists, IL
the extreme manner that some
French models and many French pic
lures suggest.

The New Sash

It is not worn by the better class
of Frenchwomen in any sensational
way. and their milder form of it
will be accepted over here.
It is very pretty when simply
wound around the waist and allowed
to hang in two rather narrow ends
in front or back, finished with ball
or a row of fringe.
1t does not go well with a street
suit and a short skirt, but it does
give a good touch to long indoor
| skirt.

Rhymes by Little Willie
WALL STREET.

Wall street is neither long nor wide,
1t has no room to spare,
But day by day they still provide
More graves for dead hopes there.
Down there a siren sings ia sweet
And soft, seductive tones;
But all along it's way the street
Is paved with bleaching bones
The people know her wiles and
tricks,
They say she is defiled;
Rut every time the ticker ticks
More victims are beguiled.
Though hundreds there, at each days
close,
Are sunk in woe or shame,
There still are millions who suppose
That they can beat the game.

The Dutch Collar

The embroidery may be nothing
more than a crowtie in heavy black
floss, but it is there. This opens out
hours of fancy work for the woman
who is expert with her needle and
cannot afford the added price of such
buttons to the cost of her suit
The popularity of the Dutch collar
during the summer has resulted in
the same thing being added to {
coat suit.
Those who are tired of revers viii
adopt a wide round collar of en-
broidered satin edged with a twisted
cord of soutache and finished in front
with square tailored bow of the
satin or of velvet ribbon.
Sleeves Are Long
There is now not the slightest
amount of doubt concerning the short
sleeve. 1t is entirely out of the styles
except for elaborate and formal cos.
tunes. 1t is out of place on the
streets, in the shops, and for church
The present sleeve is long, is fitted
and hugs the forearm as tightly as
a glove. The severely tailored coats
usually have plain sleeves, although
there is a disposition to put buttons
and buttonholes at the back from
elbow to wrist.
1t is better however to omit these
merely adding three buttons at the
wrist, to be fastened to flap, which
tightens the sleeves when buttoned.
There is no lego mutton effect. The
fullness at the shoulders has eli
tirely gone out. There are not ever
plaits or tucks; the sleeve is pu
in by the same method used for tht
sleeve of a mans coat.
The armhole is small, in order t
emphasize the long underarm fol
good style this year.
In elaborate frocks the kimont
sleeve is still seen, but so modified
that it could not be recognized. |
is now reduced to a cap used for or
namental purposes.
AS the sleeves i'll the majority o
elaborate gowns are transparent ant
wrinkled from armhole to wrist, it il
necessary in some cases to hide tn
crude armhole seam with a band O.
cap that gives an excuse for embroid
cry.

If we can possibly do So" says Mr.. Nc
Junkin, land so have decided to make a

this line the Punxsutawney Spirit crowds
a whole lot of horse sense and truth into
these few lines: "As we have heretofore
observed, the place to begin the fight for
clean politics is at home-in your county
affairs. After you have educated the
average voter to regard honesty and eff
cheney in the public service as the criter-
ion that should determin his choice OF
candidates, and TO abhor the trickster and
all unclean and corrupt methods, you
will have foundation for clean politics
that will last, and that will be fit to build
upon. Otherwise clean politics is a delu-
sion. Any reform 10 be lasting or gen.
uine, must be in the hearts of the people,
Any other kind is mere political hypoc'
racy and pharisaical claptrap."

THE existence of the deadly feet and
mouth disease among cattle is due entire
ly to the carelessness of farmers who pay
no attention to their pasture lands, also
to improper methods of fertilizing the
same, according to DR.. Willisa. W. Chal-
font, of 1896 North Sixlielh street, Phila-
delphia. "The disease" said DR.. Chal-
font, who has made life study of the
same, "is nothing more than cankerous
condition of the mouth. Owing to the
drought during our past summer cattle
were compelled to eat teth, poisonous
weed which thrives in bad soil. Teth
decomposes the alkaline and albuminous
parts of the blood. Later during the last
summer there came rain, and with II a
profusion of pasture flowers, including
buttercups, most poisonous Of wild flow
ers. The buttercups causes cankerous
blisters, and likewise rots off the boots OF
the animals"
