Good old rpulent John D.! He would look with scorn on me; con- slider I'm in luck, when l have an ex- tra buck; buying ice or buying coal always keeps me in the hole, and when I've paid the rent l am left without a cent. Yet I'm always gay and snug. happy as a tumblebug, hay ing still the best of times, grinding out my blame fool rhymes! Old John |. on t'other hand. trets away to beat the band: he Is burdened with his care-though he isn't with his hair snd his health Is going back, and his liyer's out of whack, and his con- science has grown numb, and his wlshbone's out of plumb, and he's trembling all the day 'es- plunk may get away.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their unceasing Work Keeps Us
 Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every thre minutes. The kidneys filter the blood They work nigt and day. When healthy they remove about 800 grains of Impure matter daily, when un' healthy some part of this impure mat ter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptoms pain in the back, headache, nervous ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout' gravel, disorders of the eyesight 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. A. Hawkins, 669 Yesler Way, Seattle, Wash, says: Tt gives me pleasure to confirm the statement gave for publication some years ago in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills as the relief l obtained from their use has proven permanent. l suffered from an acute attack of kidney trou' tIe and though used remedy after remedy, I was unable to find relief, l had the most severe pains across the small of my back and was also annoyed by irregular passages of the kidney secretions. Doan's Kidney Fills helped me at once and continue use entirely relieved me. l am a great advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills and have recommended them on many occasions"

The commission having in charge the
details of the celebration has issued
an official circular announcing the

The interest shown by foreign ma
tions, especially England, Germany.
France and Holland, in the successful
outcome of the celebration was
source OF great encouragement to the
commission in the early DAYS of its
labors. The countries named, not
to speak of others in South America
and the Orient, will be represented
in the big naval parade on September
% by from one to five war ships, all
representative OF their class. The
United States war ships then in the
harbor will join In the naval pageant.
While from time to time fragment
airy items bearing upon the celebra-
ton have been published, they lacked
the authoritative stamp of the COM
mission, The official schedule now is
at hand, and 1t is an imposing array
Of events. The celebration will begin
with a rendezvous of all foreign and
American vessels in the harbor, dip

TORRENT FRoZE IN NIGHT.

The phenomenon was one tnat l
have never before experienced-a rum
ming river frozen solid In a night
When we arrived the waters OF this
stream, tumbling over the great bowlc'
ers and rushing through the tortuons
channels, made a deafenlng row.
Gradually, but almost imperceptibly
the tumult decreased, while, wcrn
out after hard day, We fell asleep.
A few hours Later when we
swoke, a deathly silence prevailed,
and on looking out to my intense
surprise, found that the rushing tor
rent Of the previous night had been
transformed into solid mass OF ice.
In this region OF extreme tempera-
lures had on other occasions seen
torrents frozen. but never under such
startling conditions. On looking
round we found that everything we
possessed was also frozen solid. In
Guiding our saddle OF mutton, which
was merely a block Of ice, We were
ravenous, but We got no satisfaction
from gnawing at Jumps, of rock
which ought tc Aayc been a succulent

had to content ourselves with lit.
