Experiment

If you suffer from backache; head
aches or dizzy spells; if you rest poor
ly and are languid in the morning: if
the kidney secretions are irregular and
unnatural in appearance, do not delay.
In such cases the kidneys often need
help.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
prepared for kidney trouble They
are recommended by thousands. Can
Harrisburg residents desire more con
vincing proof of their effectiveness
than the statement of Harrisburg

AL G.. Fields Minstrels

Inventions that enable new, startling
or magnificent effects on the stage are
not very frequent any more, but this
year the public witnesses sensational
one, in the Aurora Borealis scene shown
during the performance of the AL. G.
Field lMinstrels at the Majestic Monday
matinee and night. The number is en-
titled, 1.-The Land of the Midnight
Sun, and the splendor of the picture
is almost bewildering. The spectator
sees the vast reaches of the Arctic re-
glons, with the sun sinking behind the
polar mountains of ice and snow, and
yet Illuminating all by reflected
iridescence. Then is beheld the gor-
geous phenomenon of the Aurora
Borealis, with its irradiation of dazzling
contrasted colors. This phenomenon is
not visible to the people of this coun-
try very often. Hence, to see it accu-
rately reproduced in the theatre is a
rare opportunity for the present gen.
Grafton when it can acquaint itself with
one of natures grandest and most i'm.
posing spectacles. Adv.*

When and How to Serve Onions

Teachers in schools attended by

born children, will tell you if you query,
that the recess luncheon these children
bring from home is usually an onion
and a thick slice of coarse bread. Some
of these little folks have most wonder

gestions.

the matter with the doctor? He's a
good fellow, let him come. Seriously,
it is difficult to find a cook who will
use onions in cookery with discretion
and more than one mistress stipulates.
when engaging a cook, that there shall
he no cooking of onions in her kitchen.
This is probably because the odor is
difficult to eradicate and the smell
while cooking, so penetrating. There
are times when onions are enioyed
There are many foods that a bit of
onion improves nightly but the nice
sense of Judgment that tells when the
flavor shall be used is seldom met with
sometimes we read that Burbank has
succeeded in deodorizing the onion and
at once we are filled with regret and
order beef steak, smothered in onions,
for supper, then we are sorrowful again
because it never is true. Wizard that

him.

some onion cookery use Bermuda or
Spanish onion or our own silver skin.
