kanqaroo Mothers Bravery.

During a severe drought in certain
section of Australia the owner of il
country station was sitting one even
ing on the porch when he saw
kangaroo lingering about. alternating
approaching and retiring from the
house, as if half in doubt and fear
what to do. At length she approached
the water pals and, taking a young
one from her pouch. held 1t to the
water to drink. While her baby was
satisfying its thirst the mother was
quivering all over with apprehension.
for she was but a few feet from the
porch where one of her foes was
watching her. The baby. having I'm
ished drinking. was replaced in the
pouch, and the old kangaroo set off
at a rapid pace. The spectator was
so much impressed by the astonishing
bravery of the affectionate mother that
he made a vow-and kept it-never
again to shoot kangaroo.

a Genial Old Duke.

Duke Max of Bavaria had no greater
delight than leaning over the counter of
some small shopkeeper, talking gossip
or purchasing toys for his great grand
daughters in Austria. lnnumerable
stories are told illustrating his char
acter. B. H. Goldschmidt, "A weakly
banker of Frankfurt. was once jour
neying to Vienna. Opposite on the veil
vet cushion of the first class car sat "a.
old gentleman whose dress and looks
betrayed no uncommon rank. Are
you on a pleasure trip" asked the
bankers vis-a-vis. Yes answered
the latter; 81 am going to visit my
daughter, who, thank God, fortunately
married the Banker Wiener in Vienna"
How strange" replied his companion.
''The incentive to my trip is the same.
1 am going to visit my daughter in
Vienna. Thank God. she. too. is rather
fortunately married to the emperor of
| Austria"

Every Indian Had an Umbrella.

One of the incidents of the early
days in Great Bend that caused a
great deal of merriment among the
white residents was the time the In
dams bought all the parasols and um-
brellas that were for sale in the town.
This happened In the seventies and
was on u rainy day. The Indians were
on their way south and came through
the town Of Great Bend. They saw q
number of men and women on the
streets with umbrellas. and, being
plentifuly supplied with money and a
desire to own one of the handy con-
trivances. they got busy. The funny
part of it was that they made no dis
tinction between toy parasos, silk ones
and the serviccabe linen ones. 1t was
not long until the entire visible supply
Of all the stores had been purchased
Then the fun began. Some Of the toy
parasols were made of cloth that was
highly coored. and as soon as. the
water hit them the coloring matter
began to mix with the water and driT
down upon the Indians clothes. They
minded this not In the least and wer,
seen going southwark whooping un6

Death Warnlno.

Oliver Wendell Holmes recorded his
protest against the custom OF telling Il
person who does not actually ask to
know that he cannot recover. AS that
loving observer of mankind asserted. so
must every one who knows whereof he
speaks assert that people almust al
ways come to understand that recov-
cry is impossible. 1t IS rarely need
full to tell any one that this is the case

appears to be as little feared Is sleep.

UNIQUE CONTESTS
AT SPOKANE FAIR.
All Sorts Of Competitive Tests
Have Been Planned.

Any kind of genuine contest, from
a foot race to an aeroplane race, is al
ways interesting, and the Spokane Fair
management, approaching this, have
arranged for all sorts of competitive
stupts to be pulled off during Interstate
Fair week, Sept. 80 to Oct. 9. OF
course the horse races are the main
events, and S17,5O0 is offered in purses
for the horsemeD, but the amateur fire.
mems tournament, the miners rock
drilling contest and the lumbermen's
log chopping contest will be sure
enough exciting.
A long list of prizes has been ar
ranged for the f1remen. Any town can
enter team, and many Of the Inland
Empire cities have agreed to have their
best men there. Five hundred dollars
is given for a two hand rock drilling
exhibition, and the best men from the
Occur d'Alenes, from Butte, from the
boundary country and even from Ne
vada are expected. 1t is real novelty
to see these men, trained athletes all,
drive a steel drill forty to fifty inches
into solid granite in fifteen minutes,
hitting fifty to sixty strokes a minute
and changing the long steels without
losing stroke.
The log chopping is new idea, but
the woodsmen who have it In charge
are sure it will be as exciting as any
of the other features, and there should
be plenty of good choppers in the In
land Empire who will take a chance to
win the $3.50 offered.
Races at night by the light OF the
mammoth searchlights are another fea'
ture, tried first in 1911 with great sue
cess and to be repeated this year. The
night chariot races are especially ex
citing, as the chariots are covered witt
fireworks, which serve the double pur
pose Of lighting the race and exciting
the four horses which draw each We
hicle.
And another contest, perhaps not as
exciting, but surely Of more practica
good, is the milk test, in which man!
of the prize milk cows Of the north
west will contend. Full particular
concerning all these contests may b.
had by addressing Robert II. Cosgrove
secretary of the Spokane Fair.

THE SAFE LAXATIVE

HAVE YOU SUSPECTED YOUR KlDNEYs2

There are two ways to tell whether you
have weak kidneys.
The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
That is why physicians make such q
careful examination when you apply for
insurance, and if there is any sign of kid
ney trouble you are likely rejected
Kidney disease is SO dangerous that it
is a bad mistake to overlook or neglect it,
and if pain in the back, recurring head
aches, or ffretful, nervous, tired condition
makes you suspect some kidney trouble,
take the trouble to watch the kidney secre-
tons Look for any of the following
signs:
More or less than three ana one half
pints passed daily.
Too dark or too pale color.
PASSAGES too frequent, prOfu5e. or much
reduced. or scaldine and painful.
Sandy, gritty OF cloudy settings.
Fat or oily-lookine layer which gathers
on the surface when allowed to stand.
or jelly-like tlickening.
Staining OF the linen or bad odor.
Temporary changes may occur for time
from things eaten, but if the changed APP
pearance continues, your kidneys are prob
ably out of order and in need of help.
Neglect may be dangerous.
Doan's Kidney Pills act on the kidneys
only and are intended to stimulate and help
them. Better kidney action means rapid
relief from any backache, dizziness, rheu-
matte pain, languor, bloating, urinary dis

PUBLIC FUNDS AID THE WORK
Gratifying Sign That the People Are
Awake to Value of Fight Against
tuberculosis.

Compared with the expenditures for
tuberculosis work in 1910, those of the
past year are practically the same in
the aggregate, but they are almost
double those Of 1909. The National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton Of tuberculosis, in its third an
nual statement, points out, however,
what it considers more significant
than the aggregate expenditures,
namely, that the percentage of money
spent from public funds is greater in
1911 than ever before, being 66.2 per
cent of the total. In 1909 only 53.5
per cent Of the total expenditures
was from public funds, and in 1910
it had increased to GIG per cent. In
1911 over $9,600,G0 of the S14,5O0,0 600
spent was from federal, state, munich
pal or county funds. Since the chief
work OF the anti-tuberculosis assocIa-
lions is to urge the public authorities
to provide for tuberculosis patients,
and thus to assume the responsibility
for stamping out this disease, the in
creased percentage of public money
is regarded as a very favorable sign
of progress.
Appropriations Of over s1O,Oou,oOO
for tuberculosis work in 1912 have al
ready been made by state legislatures
and municipal and county bodies. Or
this sum about s4,7O0,000 is from
state appropriations, and about S.
100000 for county and municipal
purposes. In addition to these sums,
the federal government spends about
S1,00O,000 every year supporting its
several special tuberculosis sanatoria.

MAKEUP or THE CoIFFuRE
Original Effects Sought After by the
Smartest Women Who Set the
Fashions Of Paris.

This year there is little absolute
novelty in the matter of hair ar
rangement to chronicle, yet the
changes, though subtle, are none the
less potent-a frequent experience as
is demonstrated when one puts on
an old hat, carefully cherished, even
when no distinct change in fashion
has taken place.
The most important aspect of the
couture nowadays is the silhouette it
produces, a fact in union with the
whole spirit Of dress. And this is
the first point to be carefully no
ticed and attained. A low, full out
line is the one most generally sought
after, and attained quite easily by the
aid Of many clever frames and adj
justments provided. A decidedly
Eastern effect is one of the most no.
ticeab1e features in the new dress
ings which should not be overlooked
by the woman who would be in the
van of fashion. In the evening this
has its opportunity, and Paris al
ready speaks authoritatively of .Ls
Grand Mogul.''
Then in the arrangement Of the
long hair a decided vogue may be
prophesied for wide, soft plaits and
twists frequently made Of well-Waved
hair, which breaks the formality and
throws other lines into those en-
ployed by the treatment of plating
or twisting. A chic arrangement
takes the form virtually of a CHG
non-for want of a better word
covered with a very wide, soft plait
of waved hair, the effect being Of
broken lines intertwined, which give
different shades and pretty lights,
while 1t is not till close examination
that the Rlslt itself is distinguished.
