DO 1T NOW
CookeviIIe People Should Not Wait
Until 1t Is Too Late

The appalling death-rate from kidney
disease is due in most cases to the fact
that the little kidney troubles are us
ually neglected until they become seri-
GUS. The slight symptoms give place to
chronic disorders and the sufferer goes
gradually into the grasp of dropsy,
Bright's Disease, gravel or some other
serious form of kidney complaint.
If you suffer from backache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney secre-
tions are irregular of passage and UNI
natural in appearance, do not delay.
He lp the kidneys at once.
Doan's Kidney PILLS are especially
for kidney disorders-they act where
others fail. Over one hundred thous-
and people have recommend ed them.

a kings love affairs for everything
that goes wrong in his kingdom.
When a people are dissatified they
say First let us find some woman to
blame it on, and then let us rise up
and fight the king"
1t is the same with countries as
with Adam. He was the first to say,
"Cherchez la femme! Pouf!"
a year ago, Manuel, my king, lost
his throne The whole world, even
the United States, which is hypo-
critically virtuous, shrugged Shout
5ers and said, "Cherchez Ia femme!"
It was said and believed that my
pink toes, my pearls had destroyed.
'Cherchez la femme! Pouf!"
That uprising had been planned
long time! The people wanted a re-
public when the former king and his
heir were assassinated! When the
time was ripe they deposed the poor
king and exiled him.

next year the run Of pink salmon
should be light, packers who have this

having to carry a small stock over.
Salmon packers declare that no less
than 100000 will have been paid

for supplies, labor, equipment, wages,

Der were the largest ever sent out dur

by the collector of customs at Port
Townsend show that the shipments
for the month aggregated 1856, 450

1 like the Americans I have met
But, oh, you are hypocritical! You
would not have a president who was
divorced, you would rot put in high
places men whose lives have held
domestic scandals-that is, if such
scandals are public! This is hypoc-
risy!
Among your smart set you have
women who lead your Newport set
who have had one, two divorces! They
marry, then they get rid of that man
just to marry another, and so on.
How do they differ from the friends
the kings of history have had! The
women of history have been open and
honest. They stand frankly before
the world and say, :" have taken the
king as my friend;" the woman of the
smart set hides behind her cloak of
hypocrisy. She goes to that place
called Reno. The judge says you are
free, and she marries the next man.
And she continues to be received in
her society,"
In their hearts these women blame
the woman of history, the friends of
the kings, but they blame not them
selves! Hypocrites!
In America these women come back!
Kings deposed, where feminine inf1u-
ence has been blamed, never come
back! Manuel, my king, will never
come back!-From the New York

a Latin ruler to exile? 1t is, I am
sure, because to the English a king
has been as a tradition, a figure
head. His indiscretions, his pecca-
dilloes could not affect the actual
government Of the country.
In France, in Portugal, in Spain,
the kings have been nearer the peo-
pie, their behavior in public and pri-
vate has had direct influence in the
government, on the people, And so
they have lost their thrones, and
sometimes their heads.
Alfonso, the king of Spain, has
recently fallen in love with a Span
ish dancer. This story has been
published in America and in England
and is believed. l do not believe It.
Alfonso is too much in love with his
wife, with Queen Victoria, and toe
fond of his children to bother with a
dancer

desiring the kingship of Portugal. In
weighing the throne against the
American heiress' millions the mil
lions won!
No! 1t is said in Europe that the
American girl wants to be queen;
that her mother is willing to spend
her fortune to place her on the Port
uguese throne!
Such tales cannot be true. If the
mother, Mrs. Smith, spent her for
tune for that honor there would be
no money left to live on! How fool
ish such tales are! If Portugal again
accepts king, mark my words, Meth
er Braganza or Manuel will be it!
Manuel's kingly career ended for
ever at the tragic moment of his
overthrow, just year ago! When
he left his country he knew that it
was all over, that he could never
come back" 1t was a dark hour
for the king. The only thing that
consoled him was the thought of love!
Kings are not always allowed to love!
Poor kings!
On Wednesday, November Is,
Manuel was twenty-five years of age.
I did not play that afternoon
To me, as to the loyal royalists of
Portugal, Manuel will always be king,
my king! In my boudoir there are
two photographs of my king. One
large one, on the mantel framed in
silver. l keep fresh flowers in front
of it all the time. No! not the flow
ers sent me by the men who come to
watch me play!
On the table, just where I can put
my hand on it, is smaller picture
| keep it in a heart-shaped frame.
These pictures mean much to me.
They bear the handwriting. No, no;
l do not translate for you! 1t is
meant just for ourselves!
In judging kings the world forgets
that they are but human. Kings do
not marry for love; they marry for
the good of their country, for rea-
sons Of. state. Their wives must, like
Caes sr's, be above reproach; they
must be of royal blood, strong, able to
bear many children. They do not al
ways love the king!
Study the history of kings of the
world, and what do you find? Al
ways, or nearly always, the king
with his domestic wife, finds love on
the outside. Kings of France and
Of other Latin countries have lost
their heads and thrones through los
ing their hearts.
How curious it is that England,
the home of the most respectable
middle class people, people who
make virtue and morality their gods,
will forgive in a king what more sup
posedly lax countries will not tolerate.
Read the histories of the English
kings! Read their immoralities, their
designations, and yet their thrones
stood! The ultra-respectable bulk Of
the people, the great middle class,
closed its eyes and said, The king
can do no wrong"
Why is this so? Why do English
kings live down things which lead

MANUEL
HASN'T A
CHANCE

M UGH interest in the future of Ex-
I'VE King Manuel of Portugal has
been stirred up recently in
America by the reports that an Amer
lean girl, Anita Stewart, the New
York heress who married the duke Of
Braganza, might ultimately sit upon
Manuel's throne.
At the same time the royalists were
said to be getting ready to restore the
youthful monarch who lost his throne
mainly because his subjects did not
approve of his friendIness toward
Gaby DesIys, the French actress now
appearing at the Winter garden in
New York.
Many kings have been as frivolous
as Manuel and have kept their jobs.
Can it really be that change of feel
ing is sweeping over the world and
that rulers must look after their con-
duct as carefully as though they were
plain people?
And if so, what chance had the
American girl to climb up on the
throne?
Gaby DesIys, it would seem, should
know. She says she does know. That
the national ideals have changed and
that neither Manuel nor the American
heiFess has a chance. Somewhat syn
icaIly she here tells why.

RECORD IN CANNED SALMON
perienced by Packers-Tota Pack
Is 5,950,0O0 Gases.

Seattle, Wash.-The present has
been the best year the canned salmon
industry has ever known The pack
is nearly 100000 cases larger than ever
put up in any previous year; the
prices have been the highest, more
men and capital have been employed,
a greater number Of canneries have
been operated, there has been suf-
ficient demand from all parts Of the
world to absorb practically all the
recOrd-breaking pack, and with one eX-
ception there have been no losses to
either salmon or canneries, as has
often been the case in former years.
The total pack of canned salmon
this year for Alaska, British Columbia,
Puget sound, Gray's Harbor and the
Columbia river is estimated at $780,
600 cases. This pack is 100000 cases
more than in any previous year in the
history Of the salmon industry.
Packers estimate the Alaska pack at
100000 cases; Puget Sound, 1885,
00O cases; Columbia river, 100000
cases; British Columbia, 750, 900 cases;
outside points, 25O,O00 cases.
One of the features, in fact the dom
inant feature Of the seasons opera
tons, has been the huge pack Of pink
salmon. The pack of "pinks" this year
is estimated at 100000 cases, com
pared with 1,400, 600 cases, the largest

NhE to Portugal as king, and will
WU Anita Stewart, the beautiful
American wife of the Duke
de Braganza ever enter Portugal

me many times.

possible. ManuePs career as king is
finished. He can never, what you
Americans say, Come back"
The Duke de Branganza will never
be king. The duchess, with all her
beauty and wealth, can never be
queen. The Portuguese people are
proud. They are contradictory. They
want republic. They are willing
to be governed by a man or men OF
common birth. But if they returned
to the old order Of things and again
accepted a king, he must be Of the
highest, kingliest blood, and the queen
must be Of his own rank!
