When the kidneys are sick they
give unmistakable warningsthat should
not be ignored. BY examining the ur-
inc and treating the kidneys upon the
first sign of disorder, many days Of
suffering may be saved. Sick kidneys
expel a dark, ill-smelling urine, full
of "brickdust" sediment and painful
in passage. Sluggish kidneys cause a
dull pain in the small of the bacH

feelings and frequent rheumatic
twinges.

40 are many women who do

Their living. They depend. rather,
working in the homes of others.
he sewing women, the houseworker,

I've a domestic rather than a business
Environment. To be sure, the trained
nurse, by virtue OF the rules of her pro-
fession, has a certain standing which
makes for method. Yet even she is
often imposed upon by, those who have
known only the haphazard procedure OF
domestic routine.
It Is wise for those who work in the
homes Of others to outline for them
selves a set of rules which will place
them on a business-like plane. Take
the sewing-won,an. for example. Most
of us know the Irregularities with
which we have to contend when we
have our dressmaking done in our
homes. Disappointment follows dis
appointment. Some other woman k
the time which was promised us, and
the gown for which we are so anxious
has to wait until the erratic seamstress
chooses to confer on us the favor of her
presence. The home dressmaker who
would be thoroughly successful should
adopt business methods. She should
have O book in which to keep account
of the dates on which she is to work
for certain patrons. She should never
allow one engagement to lap over an
other without consulting the woman
from whom she steals time. She
should know how long 1t takes to make
a gown, and should refuse to. go to a
house for less time than that in which
she can do the work well. When she
makes her appointment she should
Ike the exact number of hours which
she shall give each day. n she should
keep to those hours. II she is TO have
lunch and dinner she should say so, or
il she expects only one meal she should
have an understanding on the subject,
says the writer in the Philadelphia
Press.
Many seamstresses will protest that
they cannot be business-like, that
women are not business-like, and that
they lose their custom il they insist upon
regular hours. | think, however, that
they will find hat in the end more
people are pleased when they feel that
sfhey can place dependence upon the
word of the women who work for them
than if they must wait in uncertainty
until the final disappointment.
In the matter of wages, too, the
home worker has q right to demand
what she is worth. There is no reason
why she should get into a rut and thus
slnake her services of little value. The
d~ressmaker should be up-to-date,
should take magazines which give her
new ideas. even though they seem ex-
spensive. She should take the trip down.

The Mardi-Gras Is the festival pre-

French population as early as 1897. The
day Of the celebration is a legal holi-
day, and the entire city Is given over
to merr. making. There are two prin-
cipal ~pageants. and those who take
part ar, showered with flowers and
confetti by the ~onlookers.
