Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due to

kidneys are deranged the blood is filled
with poisonous waste matter, which set
ties in the feet, ankles and wrists; or
under the eyes in bag-like formations.
AS a memedy for those easily recog-
nized symptoms of Inflammation caused
by uric acid-as scalding urine, back
ache and frequent urination, as well as
sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in
the blood has caused rheumatism, lum-

full how quickly Anuric acts /; the pains
and stiffness rapidly disappear.

Zulu characteristics.

It Is q recognized fact that the
Zulu tribe is one of the finest in
southern Africa. The Zulu has a
sturdy frame, strong chest, wonder
full digestion, magnificent teeth, and
fine muscles. He can stand hunger,
fatigue and exposure. While he is
slow to adopt modern methods of
tillage, irrigation and fertilizing. he
is beginning to recognize their advan.
tages. His hospitality, Indifference to
pain, sense of humor, good temper,
love of children, and trustworthiness
are all good traits in his character.
He is a manly specimen, not cring-
ing toady, and, in his natural state, a
gentleman, every bit Of him. In gen.
eral, he is law-abiding and obedient,
and he is not purposely cruel. He has
strong musical sense, and remark
able knowledge Of time and rhythm
His powers of singing, even when but
slightly trained, are extraordinary.
The Zulu knows a good deal about
some things, but what he does not
know of what to the white man are
matters of common, everyday knowl-
edge, is appalling. His instructor is
always running up against a high
brick wall of stupendous ignorance

to love and wed. He cut out a rival
at that selfsame ball, but was miser
able all the long hours of the night.
that followed because he must submit
to that rival seeing her home.
It was to invite her. to another ball
that he first called upon her. At that
dance, with his arm folded more close
ly about her waist than the require
ments of the steps demanded, he
whispered his love for her in her ear.
A dance followed their wedding feast
and they went to balls until their
growing family provided another
way for them to spend their evenings.
If daddy is a bit clumsy at tangoing
and can get any of the girls who are
good natured enough to forego the
pleasure of waltzing with a spruce
young fellow whose handclasp brings
the warm blood to both heart and
cheek and dance with him, who should
have the heart to say him nay?
The man who enjoys dancing never
grows old. He could give old Ponce
de Leon tips on finding the fountain
of youth and clinging tenaciously to
youth and it's joys. eos
