A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

IL is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more
attention, as they control the other
organs to a remarkable degree and
do a tremendous amount OF work I'm
removing the poisons and waste
matter from the system by filtering
the blood.
During the winter months espe.
cially. when we live an indoor life.
the kidneys should receive some as
sistance when needed. as we take
less exercise, drink less water and
often eat more rich, heavy food.
thereby forcing the kidneys TO do
more work than Nature intended.
Evidence of kidney trouble, such
as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting or burning, brick
dust or sediment. sallow complex
ion. rheumatism. may be weak or
irregular heart action, warns you
that your kidneys require help i'm
mediately to avoid more serious
trouble.
Many physicians claim that an
herbal medicine. containing no min
erals or oplates. has the most heal
ing influence. An ideal herbal com

FARMERS SHOULD RAISE
SNAKES AS PROTECTION

Every farmer and very poultry
raiser should keep a few snakes as
a protection to his crops and poul-
try, says Allen S. Williams, secre-
tary of the International HerpetoOg-
zeal Society in a statement just is
sued. Williams is traveller and a
lecturer and snakes are his hobby.
He has collected reptiles in every
part of the western hemisphere.
THE idea is simple" Williams says.
RATS, weasels and other rodents
destroy crops and are the natural
enemies of domestic fowls. Snakes
are the natural enemies of rodents.
Keep few snakes to kill of the
young rodents and In time your
crops and chickens will be safe. To
the cereal crops alone In the United
States rodents cause an annual loss
of 100000. 200. II snakes had
even half chance the loss to farm
ers and poultry raisers would be re-
duced to practically nothing. There
are a dozen varieties which could
accomplish the work and are non
poisonous"

committed suicide in Brixton jail in
London to-day, was known in New
York as DeFallois. Under that
name he was employed as ship

left us April IA of last year," said a
representative of the firm. "Since
then we have heard nothing of him.
I remember DeFallois as a powerful
fellow who spoke German most OF
the time, but who protested to be a
Swiss. We knew nothing about the
man to indicate that he was not all
right and our books show that he
left us several months before the
war started"

BY Dad We mean all the daddies.

Dad and Sis ought to be friends
not merely father and daughter
but chums.
Dad is good fellow. OF all the
lovers that Sis has, none loves her
better than Dad. None has done SO
much for her, or is willing to dc
mere for her than Dad.
Down in the bottom of Dads
heart there is a picture of the girl
he courted when he was young
man. That picture is of mother
ard Sis probably looks great deal
like Mother used to look, so Dad
can't help but love Sis.
Dad is the fellow who brings
home the bacon. Dad is the man
who prays and hopes for good luck
and health to the end. SO that he
can take care of Mother and Sis.
Down in the bottom of Sisters

looks and acts like Dad.
So Sis ought to get better &C

Dad and Sis ought to clasp hands

HOOP SKIRTS.

The first modern hoop skirt-rep- resenfing a costume which the modistes are now threatening to re- vive-was the invention of Joseph Thomas, who was born in Paris eighty eight years ago today, and who died in Hoboken a few years since. The hoop skirt of Thomas contriyance was very popular from 1850 to 1870, when it began to de- cline. The monstrosity of cumbrous skirts, held out by hoops, was car ried to such a point that mere man was almost crowded off the earth, and the fair sex began to assume the proportions of ballons. Probably no other style of feminine attire was so unsightly and ridiculous as this, yet it enjoyed a tremendous vogues and was at least a. blessing to the manu- facturers of the materials used in the making of dresses. The hoops of Joseph ThSmas constituted a revival of the crinoIines or fardingales of the time of Queen Elizabeth, when women wore hoop-like petticoats made of whaIebone. The hoop skirt was the cause of many accidents and loss of life occasioned by coming in contact with fire or machinery.

Tn fact the entire act of the Honey Bess' as staged by the six juveniles in the of- fering is just 9 series of pleasing ex- hiIbitions in the singing and dancing line and the end makes one wish for the beginning again.
 Jones and Johnson went through their offering with such ease that the audience at yesterdays performance hardly realized that the act had fair ly begun, but there was little effort in remembering how hearty the laughs were and how fast they were coming during the act nor in calling to mind that such an exhibition of eccentric dancing has never been offered upon L4AGs SLdSS OL a 1OCa1 p1ayGOuSG.
