the sense Of the authors t~ableaux.
These are most artistic and striking
pictures.
The horrors OF war-famlliar horrors,
TO be sure-could not be more graph
ically displayed than in Miss DiN's
five scnes. The author. as MANY
authors who write with as much fee
ing as she does, is more or less stra-
bismic toward her subject. This is
most clearly established in the last
act Another war begins promptly.
The allies Of the former struggle have
become enemies. The pcss.mlstic con-
clusion Of the author as II is expressed
by one f the characters is that there
must Always he war so long as there

or course there will probably be

nearly half a century before Germany
and France again faced each other
over the trenches. In the meantime
there had been long periods Of peace.
Great Britain has struggled with the

and that he takes pain to instill in
her mind that he thinks great deal
of her. Often he gives her to under
stand that he thinks more of her than
of any young woman he has ever met.
For the time being he is sincere and
means what he says. But how does
she know that they may be intended
for life partners in the near future?
He may be only a deeply Interested,
friendly visitor, and actually not hav-
ing considered betrothal. nor even hav-
ing serious intentions, although she
has made quite an impression upon
him.
II he is far-seeing young man. he
believes in calling constantly upon the
girl who Is pleasing and makes his
visits enjoyable, concluding that he
has plenty of time and opportunity to
consider whether his heart shall be
given into her keeping or not. He
cons over the selfish fact that, as he
Is heart-whole and fancy-free. he is
at liberty to pay attention to first one
girl. then another, perhaps, until he
comes to propose.
While their prospects are unsettled,
girls should be earnestly advised not
to allow their thoughts of love to
dwell upon him captive.like. There
in lies the source of many heartache.
During the love time. naturally, bright
young women choose sunny day to
have their photographs taken. in their
prettiest fetching white frock and rib
bon bows. coquettish looking hats, the
dainty costume looking too sweet for
anything; captivating those who are
privileged to look upon the smiling
face of the picture proudly shown. The
young man takes it from her and
gazes long and rapturously at the
lovely bit of femininity the card re-
veals. exclaiming: Il think it's per-
fectly splendid! Don't you want to let
me have one of them? l would ap-
preciate it more than words can tell"

would be constantly a reminder of her,
won a hesitating consent. Take it till

pockets the photograph.
Little does a girl realize, as in this

KIDNEY TROUBLE
NOT RECOGNIZED

An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies. in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
80 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so com
mon to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tons are declined do not even suspect that
they have the disease.
According to this il would seem that q
medicine for the kidneys. possessing real
healing and curative properties would be
. blessing to thousands.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the well
known kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
is remarkably successful in sickness caused
by kidney and bladder troubles. 1t is mild
and gentle in its action and It's healing in
fuence is soon noticed in most cases.
There is no other remedy like Swamp
Root. 1t will surely and effectively over
come kidney, liver and bladder troubles
and you can depend upon it. Go to any
drug store and get bottle so as to start
treatment today. You will soon see .
marked improvement.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to- DR..

Device to Save Time.

A new device brought out by an
Englishman puts an end to waste of
time in using The telephone. The in
vention is calleI an ampliilcr and can
be connected with the receiver by
pressing a button. BY this simple
arrangement one does not have to wait
at the telephone while the person at
the other end goes in search of the
person you seek. Instead, the ampli.
fer is switched on. The receiver can
then be placed on the desk and work
of the caller resumed. When the
party sought calls his tone is greatly
increased by the amplifcr and can be
heard across iarge-sized room.
