WOMEN AND HEALTH.

Women are beginning to realize
more fully that good health is not to
be found in the use of cosmetics and
face powders. The appearance of
health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper than
the surface.
Most important to the health OF ev.
cry woman is regularity OF the bowels
and digestive organs. The weary
eyes, bad breath, frequent headaches,
pimples and general air of lassitude,
is In most every case due to consti-
patton or indigestion. OF both. There
are various remedies prescribed for
this coalition, but the easiest, most
pleasant and certainly effective. is
combination OF simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known to druggists
as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This
simple remedy is far preferable to
harsh salts and cathartics and violent
purgative waters that disturb the
whole system without affording more
than temporary relief.
DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
tonic laxative. mild in its action,
pleasant 10 the taste and positive in
its effect. strengthening the muscles
of stomach and bowels so that after
short time these organs regain tho
power TO perform their natural funo-
tlons without assistance.
DR.. caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere In Soc and

The woman who "keeps house" has
enough to do when she is in good, sound
health, but II she is weak, tired all the
time, and suffering from morn to night
with an aching back, house-work becomes
. heavy burden.
Many women who were afflicted In this
way say that Doan's Kidney Pills hsve
made life easier for them.
Women are subject to kidney disease.
The clothing they wear. the work they do.
the worry and strain Of bearing and rear
ing children, the lack Of proper exercise,
all tend to 1t.
Backache, bearing-down pains, headache,
dizzy spells. faintness, fits Of "blues," and
other troubles often thought to be peculiar
to the sex, are found frequently in kidney
disease. When any one of these Ills sp-
pears, together with dlscolored condi-
ton Of the kidney secretions. with passages
too frequent, scanty or burning, Just make
up your mind that your kidneys are weak,
and be quick to help them.
Doan's Kidney Pills have helped great
many weak women through the trying
times when kidney disease means 30 much
added misery. They do not disturb the
stomach or bowels and contain no poison
GUS, dangerous nor habit-forming drugs.
Doan's are harmless for children too.

Joke Was on Him.

They were on their wedding tour,
and imagined that every clvility CIV

ton of servitude.
Having stopped at a way station,
the bridegroom was approached by
the station agent, who asked:
Are you going TO take the next
train?"

torted the bridegroom, Indignantly. as
he guided the bride up the platform.
where they condoled with each other
over the impertinence OF some OF the
natives.
Onward came the train. its vapor

A ludicrous story is told OF an Ed.

ed. The following case came before
him ono day:
a man who kept ferret having to
go Into the country. left the cage with
the ferret in charge of a neighbor till
he should return. The neighbor In.
cautiously opened the cage door. and
the ferret escaped. The owner was
very angry. and brought claim
against him for damages.
The following was the decision OF
tho learned bailie: "Nne doot," he
said to the neighbor; mae doot. ye

TO PROVE BRIGHTS
DISEASE DURABLE

Many physicians are now saving
cases of chronic Bright's Disease here
tofore supposed to be incurable. But
to convince more members of the pro-
fession on Saturday, May 18th, the
San Francisco dailies Evening Post
and Bulletin) contained an invitation
to the effect that if four reputable
physicians of known standing in San
Francisco would send us a case Jt
cbreAic Bright's Disease (patient to
be strong enough to call at our office)
showing large amount of albumen
and casts, a case in which Ligitalis,
Nitro Glycerino and Bashman's Mix
fire have failed, with letter signed
by, them showing these facts, we
would attempt to return the patient
in sixty days with the albumen and
casts reduced one-half or more and pa
tent on the road to recovery. If We
fail, we to publish the fact, if we suc-
coed the physicians to admit it.
All these cases do not recover, but
SO many have that with the hope that
1t would convince more physicians
and save more of the thousands an
nually dying under the old treatment,
We made the above offer.

IN THE WOMAN'S WORLD

Of last year, the attendance is greater
There were eight-six ladies present
at the first meeting and ninety-six at
the second.
So far as is possible, Mr.. Ebersole
goes back to the Greek translation OF
many of the words and thus brings
out the true and correct meaning of
them. He also lays much stress on
the way in which the Gospel has been
preserved and handed down from
generation to generation.
Last year a study was made of the
gospel from the beginning of the Tes-
lament to the Sermon on the Mount.
And this year the two lectures have
Deen devoted to that wonderful ser
mon.
It Is well known that every time
one reads the; scriptures new mean
ings and new passages come to light
and the study OF the scriptures with
one who Is quite familitr with them
can not be anything but beneficial as
well as interesting. The study of the
Gospel In this Bible Glass is a sys-
tematic, intensive study of the Cos
pei records. The lectures are given
in q manner similar to that in a class
room, as any English classic might
be studied.
II the interest in this work contin-
ues through the present year, Mr..
Ebersole plans something quite differ.
ent for the following year, as two
years on the same kind of subject is
considered quite enough. Although
many Of the students are attendants
or members of Central Union Church,
the class is open to the women Of
Honolulu regardless OF denomination,
and an invitation is extended to them
by the Woman's Society. 1t Is said
by those who. have attended all the
lectures that ther interest shown by
the women Is intense and increasing.
Where few questions were asked at
first more are asked now and many
interesting points In scriptural his
tory are brought out each time.
