A PHYSICIANS DIAGNOSIS OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE.
A Seemingly Common Disease
which Becomes F ataI through
Neglect and which May Be
Readily Cured by Prompt At
tention.

More than two-thirds of the annual
death rate, physicians claim, is directly
traceable to kidney d sorders.
Interested by this remarkable asser-
ton and desiring to acquire better I'M
Outstanding of the origin of the disease.
a prominent physician was recently in
terviewed as to the symptoms of such
troubles.
ITO what do you attribute the great
destructiveness of kidney diseased" was
asked.
"The hold which the disease gains in
the body before the victim becomes aware
of his true condition, and the rapidty
with which it eats its way into the vital
organs"
Would not the proverbial ounce of
prevention check the progress of the
disease?"
"There is no doubt of it. The trouble
is that victims of this disease mistake
the symptoms for some trifling ailment
in the stomach or bowels; therefore they
do nothing to arrest the course of the
disease until it is we'll advanced 3"
What is the origin of kidney trouble2"
almost invariably bad digestion, fol-
lowed by torpid liver and constipated
habit
'What are the symptoms?"
"Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish
brain, restless nights, pale or sallow
skin, bad breath, lack Of appetite, heart
burn, sour belehing, backache or tender
ness over the kidneys, nervous weak.
ness, dark rings around the eyes, tired
feeling, too much or too little urine, and
sediment in urine"
ITS EFFECT ON THE HEART.
I'm what way is the heart affected from

In all cases the heart is disturbed,
though in many instances the paIpita

disease has advanced to a serious point.
\ severe heart throbbing and nervous

HOW TO CURE IT.
"What IS the proper course Of treat
ment for kidney disease
First, to get rid of uric acid and other
poisons in the system. This can be done
by stimulating the bladder and bowels
so that they will act more freely. The
suffering kidneys must be strengthened,
the liver and stomach toned up and the
digestion improved"
Prickly Ash Bitters is a remedy that
answers these requirements completely.
1t is not only a system tonic and regu-
lator, but its healing and restorative in

STRIKING PAPER ON EARLY CHURCH
MUSIC READ BY MRS. WESTERVELT

IAnglo-Sax0n service The Gloria in
ExceIsis IS probably Of Eastern origin.
The Hebrews loved their liturgy
which was introduced in modified
form into the Christian church The
churches also derived some Of their
uelodies from the Greeks. Notably
ST. Ambrose OF Milan In the 9Th cens
fury took over from the Greek church
antiphony or responsive singing: they
in turn inheriting 1t from the service
Of the synagogues.
As TO the origin of the -Gregorian
Chant" Gevaert of the Brussels Con-
serYatcry of Music who has studied
this subject more exhaustiyely than
any one. says 1.-THE musical system OF
the early Christians Of Rome was
largely derived from the secular forms
of music practiced in the private and
social life in the time Of the. empire
and which we're brought to Rome from
Greece after the conquest of that coun-
try, B. C. 1916" Particularly were the
songs of the Kithara adopted. The
Kithara itself. however, was aban'
doned along with other musical in
struments: for did not st. Jerome say
that "A Christian maiden should not
even know what Tyre or flute Is,
nor what 1t is used for"
Therefore all Christian music was
unaccompanied, thus developing IN q
way peculiarly its ownfrom a vocal
standpoint--til the middle ages, when
vocal accompaniment in the shape OF
part singing appeared, later super
seeded by the organ"
The Catholic chant says Dicken-
son, is projection into modern art
OF the altar song Of Greece, Judea
and Egypt
A large measure of the impressive
ness Of the liturgic chant is, therefore.
due to its historic. religious associa-
tons. As a Christian institution the
liturgy. has been In use 1900 years.
This music was handed down tradi-
|tionally. there being no proof Of def
mite notation till the seventh century.
The Gregorian chant was built up
on different system of scales from
our own In its simple form It was
sung Cor the most part with one sylss
liable only to a note About A. D. 100

Caroline Castle Wesferyelt.l
Some one has said mo music, nc
church.. and following the history Of
church music one can hardly give the
lie to this statement Some OF the
older nations, not including the He
brews. looked upon music as an inven.
ton OF the gods. In Egypt IL was held
sacred and their hieroglyphic history
shows that they were NOR advanced
ia the science OF music than any other
nation. Plato and Plutarch made
much of music as should-be-morai-
izing influence. In Plato's laws he
condemns as bIasphemy the opinion
that the purpose of music is to give
pleasure.

but nothing remains fexcept possibly

the Jewish people loved so well. Their
poetry was singulariy exalted-the
singing was in unison The Christians
sang the psalms responsibility as the
Hebrews did before them, and the Gus
tom passed over later TO Milan and
Rome. The style Of singing was the
chant which some one has aptly named

and self assertion felt therein by the
people. The music of this Protestant
epoch was the ehorals or hymn tunes
of Luther and his followers and be-
came the foundation of musical
style which was comparable to that
Of the Italian Catholic church music
Of the 10th century and indeed out Of
it arose what developed into new
school Of music, the predecessor of
the present. Elm Feste Burg has been
borrowed again and again. The world
seems to have fixed on that as best
representing Luther and the Reforma-
ton. Heine called it the Marseillaise
of the Reformation Frederick the
Great named it Almighty Gods Gren-
adler March-not ifreverently. Men
delssohn used it in his Reformation
Symphony, Meyerbeer In the Hugue-
nets chose it to represent aggressive
patriotism. All these men and others
recognized its patriotic and moral
power.
Wagner wove 1t into the Grand
March which celebrates the military
triumphs of Germany. Bach has be-
queathed it to US in its present
shape in several eantatas Recog-
mixing its power, the Catholic church.
also borrowed It among others, thus
returning the compliment to Luther,
who had so abundantly made use of
their music. A still more exalted
mood is found In Won Himmel Hoch
da Komm ich Her" a Christmas song
written for his little Hans, and Nun
Freut ich lieben Christen G,mein. z
OF the latter the editor of one of the
hymn books says: Z do not doubs
that through that one song Of Luz
Tiers many hundreds. have been
brought to the faith who otherwise
would not have heard OF Luther"
There are marvellous stories told
of the magnetic effect of these hymns.
How that Luther and missionaries en-
tering Catholic churches and singing
their songs would draw away the
whole congregation by their singing;
"of wandering evangelists' sing
ing to excited crowds" and "distribut.
ing leaflets so that the populace might
join in the solemn song" and so
winning entire cities to the new
faith almost in day"
It is not within the province Of
this paper to trace the history Of
Lutheran hymnody further. Suffice
ii to say that the blight of the 50
years war. did not kill it. Although
art and humanity were overwhelmed.
religious poetry and music survived,
hut amid almost pagan darkness,
where lay the broken spirit of refor-
nation. But Luther clothed his verse
in the strong "home-spun' language
of the people. as in his translation of
the Bible, which practically created
a new German language. Still his
translation had not greater signifi-
canoe than the hymnody of Luther
and of his compeers, whose verse and
song were of the same rugged style
as his own.
What wonder then that this rich
inheritance of verse and song clothed
in living language and beloved mel
ody abides with US today-a rich
treasure of church song.

accounts for the opposition Of the fish
trust to the proposed law and for the
willingness of the trust to pay $500
900 to secure the defeat Of the law.
In the beginning this paper was dis
posed to uphold most OF the conten-
tons Of the so called Stop, Lock and
Listen league, on the ground that more
laws would simply increase our taxes
without adequate benefits. Since the
mask has been torn from the S., L.
and L. League we will qualify our op-
position. We will oppose only those
laws that in our judgment will work a
hardship on the people themselves. If
the fisheries bill is not killed by the
manipulations of the league we will
cast our vote in favor of that particular
bill with peculiar satisfaction, because
its adoption will be rebuke to corpor-
ate activities in politics and because
trusts are organized for no other reason
than to skin the public.
