Boy Critics.

For many years the boys of Trinity college, Dublin, made and anmade the reputation of operatic stars. They al. ways sat in the highest gallery. and were recognized as the real critics of an opera. T remember" says Bar. ton McGuckin, the well-known English tenor. there was a fellow, Thomasl or some such name, whose career was blasted by witty gallery boy. Thomasi was anything but graceful. He had but the gesture, which con. sisted in bringing first one, then the other hand to his heart and letting if fly back straight before him. It was very much like the sort of motion a man would make il. deep water. He sang an Italic love song. working his arms as described. When he finished voice from tne gallery broke the si- lence; "Ah, Misther Toomasi, you ain t mooch of singer. but I'll wager ye'd make foine swimmer" The au. dience screamed with delight. Thom- Rsi had to leave the sAage.

Fighters Who Never See a Battle.

During sea fight the engine-room men tend the great engines of battle ship with all the care that they would bestow upon the same delicate yet mighty mechanism in time of peace
 roaming listlessly, yet with a definite purpose, around the engine room with oil cans in hand, bestowing drops of lubricant here and there as required Theirs and the stokers' is almost-not quite-the hardest part of the whole grim drama of a naval battle, for they are absolutely cut off from the fight, and are only cognizant of it by the quivering of their ship as the great turrets over their heads fire, or as the enemy's shells thud against the armor, or when some stray shot finds it's way through the stell wall and the bunkers to the boilers. Such an event blends whole stokehold in one fren- zied orgy of death-death by explod- ing shell and scattering fragments of steel; death by awful wounds from flying, burning coals, or death by scalding, hissing, blinding steam as the water tubes burst all around them.

TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH
 KlENEYS IF BACK HURTS
Says Too Much Meat Forms Uric Acid Which Clogs the Kidneys and
 .rritates the Bladder.

Most folks forget that the kidneys. ged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe head aches. rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders.
 You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good drug store here, take tablespoonful in glass Of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neu- tralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending blad- der disorders.
 lad Salts is harmless; inexpensives makes. a delightful efferyeacent litflis- water drink which everybody shorld take now and then to keep theirSki neys clean, thus avoiding serious com. pIcations.
 A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of lad Salts to folks who be- lieve in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble.-Adv.

 To keep these poisons and toxins well flushed from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, drink before breakfast each day, a glass of hot wa ter with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimen- tary tract, before putting more food into the stomach.
 Get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from your druggist or at the store. It is inexpensive and al. most tasteless, except sourish tinge which is not unpleasant Drink phosphated hot water every morning to rid your system of these vile poi sons and toxins; also to prevent their formation.
 To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became saturated with an ac- emulation of body poisons, begin this treatment and above all, keep it up! As soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and purifying, so limestone phosphate and hot water before breakfast, act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels.-Adv.

THE BEST PLACE.

The mountain top is small. There few who reach it's height; and, unless those who do keep firm foothold, they may be pushed off and dashed to pieces.
 The way to the mountain top is steep and rugged, the rocks are slip pery, and the path is full of landslides.
 The valley is broad and fertile, and there is room enough there for plant ing and for harvesting.
 The ordinary man can earn his liv- | ing in the valley; the extraordinary Eman may be able to attach himself Ito the mountain top.
 M am not asking you, young man, Yhot to travel upward, nor am I sug- gesting that you forever remain on the plains; but I am attempting to pie tuFa the dangers of steep climbing, arc the liability of not being able to Inc foothold at the top.
 Better, far better, be a good tiller of ne soil down in the green valley thaH starye among the mountain S roCES
 I1l these days of strenuous busi- nesE, of liberal education, and of op- porylnity, the old adage that there is always room at the top" is not as true as it used to be, for, even though there may be room at the very top, one must take fearful chances in climbing, and he will meet strenuous men en route, ready and anxious to win, not only by advancing them selves, but by pushing others down.
 The tendency to go beyond ones ability, to occupy positions unnatural and difficult tc hold, is responsible for many failure, and has ruined many men who would have been successful had they been contented and indus. trious, with good prospect of prosper. ity.
 Ambition should be made of sterner stuff than that which drives a man out of himself into unknown regions, or into places too high for him to gain a foothold a footing which, even if he does gain it. he may be unable to keep.
 It is your duty to do your best, to make the most of yourself, to encour. age rather than to cramp ambition to use common sense in the making of yourself, that brand of good sense which does not allow you to stay be- low your level and which will prevent you from striving to go beyond it.
 Thousands of men move from where they are, dissatisfied and disgruntled, and enter new and unknown fields, when, if they had remained at home, making the best of their opportuni. ties, they would have been worth more to themselves and to the world
 Where you are, unless it is below the surface, may be the best place in which for you to work and to stay Certainly, you should not allow your. self to leave your base of operations until you are sure that where you are Is not the place for you to be in. and until you know of a location within the probable scope of your capacity.
 Beware of the top, unless there is a safe road leading to it.

SOCIETY.

'I am not in society this winter" says a young society woman. "l am too busy to go into society,"" remarks a young man.
 What is society" anyway, the SO ciety about which the foregoing was spoken? Really, I don't know, and the three big dictionaries refuse to enlighten me. At a guess, I should say that probably the young people quoted refer to the collection of per sons they meet when they go out, when they are away from home, at balls, parties, and other invitation functions, and not necessarily to the individuals whom they visit. Perhaps they are unfortunate enough to be- long to some alleged exclusive form Of society, or to some clique or col lection of conceited people, who. be- cause they dent know where they stand, assume to stand for something about which they know nothing.
 Thousands, yes, hundreds of thou sands, of young people have injured their presents and discounted their futures by going into what they call society" Yes. many men and wom- en have sacrificed their souls upon the altar of society"
 Young people should have friends, they should not be bookworms or room hermits. They should intermin- gle, they should exchange experi- ences, play games of conversation, and other games; put all this does not mean going into society for ''soci- ety. is commonly understood as sim ply another word for excess, with or without the winecup.
 It is significant fact that our great merchant princes, our men of prodi- gious intellect, our famous discover CTS and scientists, our men of mark in every walk of life, care more for sociability than for society, and not one in a hundred of them is in so ciety" They live natural lives, make friends among their kind. and enjoy social intercourse. They don't care fig" whether Mrs, Tone invites them to her most exclusive ball, or whether MT. Highbrow includes them in his list of dinner guests
 Many men of wealth, and more men who haven't any. sacrifice the vitality of life to get into society" and when they get in they spend half of their time keeping in. When they become old enough to know better, they go out into Natures out-of-doors, breathe the fresh air, and mentally, and some times physically, kick themselves for the folly of their silly ambition.
 Don't worry about finding your "so- ciety" level Your level will come to you, and any level you try to reach, which is either above or below your proper sphere, is disastrous.
 Bear in mind. young man and young woman, that mere money. the ability to dance the tango and the capacity for small talk. are not keys which will unlock the door of good society
 If your ancestors came here in the overcrowded Mayfower, or your sev- eral times removed grandfather chased Indians, remember that you may not be any better than other peo pie with hay past, for the whole world feeds on the same kind of meat, sleeps in similar beds and wears much alike clothes, if it can get them,
 Society" as it runs, starts from nowhere and ends in the Land of Nothing
