WOMEN SUFFER NEEDLESS PAIN

Every woman has so much pain. work and worry in life that any need less daily suffering from backache. headache. dizziness, Ianguor or other kidney ills is unfortunate indeed
 Doan's Kidney Pills have brought new life, health and strength to thou sands of women afflicted in this way, by curing the kidneys. If you don't just understand your condition, don't forget that it may be the kid neys.
 Women easily fall victim to kidney ills. The confining work a woman does. the tight, heavy clothing she wears, the constant bending, reach ing and lifting of housework, the cares of bringing up children, are all trying. Any fever, cold. chill or strain may weaken the kidneys, and set up congestion. with backache and disturbance of the urine
 Too many women have come to think that backache. pain through the hips. headache, blues" dizzy spells, sick headache. nervousness and swelling of the ankles. wrists or limbs, are troubles peculiar to the sex. Don't make that mistake Sus- pect your kidneys first Men have similar aches when the kidneys are sick.
 It is a woman's duty to herself and to her family to detect the first signs of kidney weaknesses, and to give the

Rosetti's Fondness for Jokes.

Among the visitors to Rossetti in his last days. Hall Caine, in February Appleton's, tells especially of one daring and adventurous creature whose humorous audacity had over come nearly all of his interruptions ness. Beginning life as the secretary of Ruskin. he had ultimately lived on his wits. doing anything and every thing for a living, ingratiating him self into the graces and worming him. self into the confidence of nearly all the painters of Rossettrs immediate circle. and making Rossetti. in par ticular. his conscious victim
 One day this soldier of fortune turned up unexpectedly at our bun galow, and was received with the ut most cordiality. He was a somewhat battered person, with the face of a clipped cab horse, but so clever, so humorous, so audacious, that ROs- settis Tagging spirits were wonder fully awakened by his visit. l think the poet remarked that the last time they had met was when his visitor had bought "a tidy bit of blue" (blue china) for him.
 And what are you doing now, Charle?" said Rossetti.
 Buying horses for the king of Por- tugal." said the soldier of fortune and then ROssetti laughed until he nearly rolled out of his seat.
 Our visitor stayed all day. telling stories, veracious and apocryphal, of nearly everybody known to us in the world. and mentioning to me. in a sort of parenthetical aside. that when he was a young man he had written nearly all Ruskin's early books, which was probably true enough, since he had almost certainly copied them from the authors manuscript in those better days. when his fingers had done the work which was now being discharged by his nimbler wits.
 Feeble as Rossetti was at the time the visit of this unaccountable being did him good, and he laughed all evening after the man had gone. talk ing of his adventures of various kinds, as well as telling his familiar stories over again. One of the latter which particularly amused him, was of man near to death. to whom the clergyman came and said, Dear friend, do you know who died to save you?" "Oh, Meenister. Meenis- ter" said the dying man. 'is this a time for conundrums ?'

ADJUSTMENTS
The Cast of Classmates"

Some years ago when Sara Bern hardt put on her production of The odOra" at the Odeon theater in Paris. she searched all France for actors and actresses to fit the various parts called for by the dramatis personae of the tragedy. For example. the strang- Ter was a giant brought from Trouville
 the king a gentleman of great dignity and martial bearing from Bordeaux
 the Franc was a fairhaired lad from St Malo. Brittany. and so every part was filled with not only the finest actor or actress for the part, but with the man or woman whO looked the part to perfection. The result was such a revelation. even to Paris. that the play had one of the longest runs known to the gay capital Following Mad anne Bernhardt's example. Jules Mur- ry has searched the entire country for men and women to fill the parts in "Classmates." the great American play of De Mile.

Mrs. Alexander Ross, 347 North Alarcon street, Prescott. Ariz., says: "I have known of the remarkable value of Doan's Kidney Pills for about ten years, as it was then that I first used them. Pain in the small of my bask, headaches and other annoy ances which had greatly distressed me at times and clearly indicated that the kidneys were badly at fault. were all completely removed by the use of two boxes of Deans Kidney Pills. On occasions since then. and particularly when I have taken cold. I have noticed occurrences of the symptoms. though slight as compared with former attacks, and an appeal to Doan's Kidney Pills has given such quick and positive relief that it would be quite impossible for me to give them sufficient praise"
