the resort season for 1910. The

Frederick Hess, leader Of the Fish

bay in fishermen's garb Of blue fan
mel shirt and knee trousers, wrapped
in meditation, is beguiling the nights
by the sights of the heavens from the
observatory tower of his society. He
is an astronomer, an occasional writer,
deep thinker and dreamer. In stars
he sees an endless series OF moral
lessons, and, judging from what nc
says, all persons delving in the study
Of the starry depths and the cosmic
void ought to be good, particularly on
account of the lessons taught him by
the skies.

symptom caused by inactive kidneys.
Rheumatism Is uric acid in the blood
and other waste products of the sys-
TEN which should be filtered and
strained out in the form of urine. The
function Of the kidneys is to sift these
poisons and acids out and keep the
blood clean and pure The kidneys

times, either from overwork, cold or
exposure become clogged, and failing
in their function of eliminating these
poisons from the blood, they remain
In the veins, decompose and settling
about the joints and muscles, cause
the untold suffering and pain of rheu-
matism and backache, often producing
complications of bladder and urinary

rheumatism because Of its direct &C
