Cuts Of Mime. Nordica.

Cambridge Dispatch to the New York
 Tribune.
 An extraordinary will in many respects, that of Mrs Mamie F. Allen of Maiden aunt by marriage of Mme Lillian Nordi- ca. was filed in the Middlesex county probate court here Friday The will dis poses of property valued at $100.000
 Cutting off all her own blood relatives with the explanation that the estate originally belonged to her husband, John w. Allen and discriminating between her husbands s relatives by leaving nothing to those whom she believed to be endowed with plenty of this worlds goods." Mrs Allen qualified her bequests still further by ordering that the legatees shall each make oath and sign an affidavit that they will devote no part of their legacies to church or religious purposes. It is thought that the will will be contested in the courts by those persons cut off by Mrs. Allen.
 Among these are Mime. Nordica. Imo- gen A, Costello of Los Angeles; lone A. Walker of New York. and Anna M. Bald win of Boston. The will will come up in the probate court on March Il for a hearing. The only public bequest made by Mrs. Allen was one lot of land to the Maiden hoapttal

THE LAND OF WEAK KIDNEYS

It is admitted that Brights Disease of the kidneys causes more deaths m the United States than in any other country; that more than half the SICK ness in America is due to weak or dis- eased kidneys.
 We are a weak -kidneyed people. and the reason is plain. Ambitious to en- tov more than a mere living to have all the pleasures that our neighbors have. anxious for wealth and success; we overwork rest little, eat and drink unwisely. and are 'on the go' all the time.
 This strenuous life of today tells on the kidneys. The human body was planned for 6 simpler life There is just so much work that each organ can do. The kidneys filter our blood day and night. receiving 1t in a oeaseless stream, draining of the poisonous impurities This duty is heavy enough, in normal average life, but when we work early and late. give up rest and repose for en- Joyment, and retire late to troubled sleep, the work of the kidneys is increased enor- mously. Every bit of energy consumed throws into the blood a quantity of waste like the ashes of fire. and if the using up Is too rapid the kidneys cannot keep pace with it. A cold, chill. fever strain or any excess may hasten the inevitable breakdown, and as the circulation of the blood never stops, the kidneys have no time to rest, no chance to mend. Sick kidneys cannot get well alone.
 The first warnings of kidney weakness

 sI usually make about $40 a season on, my bulbs, and while this may not seem a large amount 1t keeps me in pocket money for 12 months and sometimes have a few dollars left over.

WOMAN's SUIT NO JOKE.
Hotel Proprietor Appears in Serious
 Role on the Witness Stand.
From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald
 Despite his reputation as an after dinner speaker, there was nothing hu- morous in the speech which Simeon Ford made yesterday from the witness stand in the supreme court, with Judge Green baum and a jury as his chief audience. Instead of appearing in a social or con- vlval capacity he was there for the pur pose of trying to prove that Mrs. Kath- erne de Wolf was not entitled to $10000 damages for what she alleged to be violation of the obligation of MT. Ford and his partner, Samuel J. Shaw, as pro- prietors of the Grand Union hotel.
 Mrs. De Wolf declared that on June 5, 1905, a few hours after the death of her son, she had, on the advice of her phy- sician, gone from her home, at 92 St. Nicholas avenue, to the hotel with her brother, George L. Catlln, and her daugh- ter, Margaret II years old She said that in registering their relationship to one another was clearly stated and two rooms were assigned them, one for her self and daughter and the other for her brother. She was in a highly nervous condition as the result of her affliction and her brother was in her room looking after her, when, she charged. one of the employees of the hotel entered against her protest, charged her with improper conduct. and called her vile names.
 According to the testimony, including that of Daniel J. Carey, the employe in question, who was then the hotel de- tective MT. Catlin ordered him out. and after an exchange of more or less strong language said he would remain in his sisters room until he was ejected by main force. He was not elected, although there were other negotiations between him and the night clerk of the hotel in the shape of notes of an expressive if not eloquent character.
 MT. Catlin corroborated the story told by his sister, and then MT. Ford was called to the stand. With unaccustomed gravity he explained the rules and GUS toms of his hotel particularly to the eff feet that the presence of a man in a woman's room. unless they were man and wife, was not tolerated in any cir cumstances, and that his employees had acted only in the discharge of their duty. There was other testimony, however, in troduced on Mrs. De Wolfs side of the case in support of the contention that unnecessary abusive language had been used to her.
 A sealed verdict will be given in the case.

 Birmingham Proof
 H. s. Ziegler, living at 242e Fifth ave. nue, Birmingham Ala, says: Until 1 tried Doan's Kidney Pills upon the ad- vice of a friend, I had suffered severely from pains through my back. I had a severe case of kidney trouble and the phv- sicians were unable to give me relief neither did the medicines I tried help me. Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me from the first, and after taking the contents of the four boxes I was cured. Previous to taking this remedy I was so weak that l could not arise from my knees with out assistance, and l passed many A sleepless night. being forced to arise six or eight times on account of the frequent action of the kidney secretions. Thanks to the wonderful curative powers of Eoan's Kidney Pills my suffering Is now a thing of the past and I feel many years younger"

LANDER'S FIRST

From the Strand Magazine.
 Murdoch and I had given very success ful concert in Montrose, and the next morning we discovered a couple of golf balls lying in corner of our room.
 What dae ye say tae game, Mac?" suggested I.
 Mac" replied that "he wasna a very good player" l was more honest, and ad- mitted that l could not play at all.
 However, the landlady came in and, hearing of our project, she remarked, s'Hoots lads, a body plays gowff noo- adays. I'll gle ye some O GOT Jamie 5 clubs, an ye can step doom tae the links in twa-three meenits."

SELF ASSERTION
 AS AN ASSE T

By orison Swett Marden in Success Mag
 azine.
 We often hear it said that if a youth has ability people will find it out with out being told; that if he has merit, it will come out; but we see on every hand young men and women with splendid abil- ity with good education Id fine train ing, out of situations, or in very ordin- ary ones, simply because they lack that aggressiveness which pushes it's way to the front. They gre conscious that they have ability and they are just waiting for somebody to recognize 1t and to push them ahead.
 Working right beside them are others with perhaps, less ability, but with that aggressive, ambitious spirit which at tracts attention and carries chem on pas. their more modest and retiring friends In this electric country of push and hurry and drive people are too busy to in- Vestigate merit or mere worth which does not exhibit itself or force it's way for ward. The American people believe in the man who claims something, who as- sLmes to stand for something, who as- serts himself; for this assertion is evidence of that progressiveness which is so es- sential to success. IL a man makes no claims, people take it fer granted that he does not believe in himself But the man who asserts himself, believes he can do the thing he undertakes, creates con fidence; and the employer is looking for the man who has programme and who believes he can carry it out He is look ing for results and men who can achieve them.
 The inegrained, sensitive youth feels that it is lmmodest, unbeconing to push his way forward, to attract attention to his ability, to tell what he can do; but while he Is waiting for the world to discover his merit and to help him on, the aggressive boy beside him has pushed lis way to the position above him.

Wear of the Cock.

From the Chicago Daily News.
 In China and Japan the year 1909 is .'the year of the cock' It is regarded as 8 lucky year and is symbolized by cock sitting on a drum. In statesmanship and literature this is called the drum of re- monstrance." Formerly such a drum was to be found in China in front of the im- perial palace, to be struck by an official in charge whenever letter of remon- strance was offered to the sovereign. This practice is said to have originated with Emperor Yao, benevolent ruler, who reigned from 2357 to 22S5 B. C.. His reign and that of Emperor Shun, who succeeded him, constitute golden age" of China.
 It is believed by the Japanese that the cock has five virtues. His comb repre- sents civilization, and his strong feet de- note military power. When he meets an enemy he fights well, thus demonstrating courage. When he finds food he calls friends, thereby showing himself kind and helpful. He keeps watch for the dawn, thus proving himself faithful.

Aside from the trimming, the waist was very simple an inch-wide tuck on each shoulder at the armhole and a few narrower tucks in the sleeves. The high waistline was de- fined by a sash of silver, ending in heavy silver fringe. Worn under artificial light, the dress was really very beautiful.
