Mystery Explained.

He stood amid the blaze and splen-
dor Of his magnificent mansion, and
in his hand he held the portrait of a
beautiful woman. His face was pale
and haggard, and his lips moved con-
vulsively.
What was this mystery, Was this
the picture of his departed wife?
No.
Was 1t the portrait Of his dead but
dearly remembered daughter.
No.
What then, was the cause Of his
haggard face?
Was it not the same portrait that
two minutes ago had fallen from its
nail, and raised a lump as big as q
hens egg on his head?

two examples:
When Hertz first began to obtain
satisfactory results from his now IA

men Of science suggested that some

transmit messages through space.
Hertz laughed at the hypothesis and

Men best prove their right to rights
by making good in little things. Rights
are those things that grow out Of uni
versal justice. In the last analysis
they are beyond price. Some folks
say they have bought the right to
certain things. That is only because
custom has commerclalized them. Such
rights SAVIOR of monopoly and are as
unstable as the dollars with which
they are purchased. Right that rests
upon divine law may seem very tame,
but after all it's the only right that
abides amidst the rise and fall Of en-
plres and the changing customs Of

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
It is a physicians prescription.
Ewamp-Root is a Strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start

the decoration Of the dOuble-eyed pea

Commanding the native force at Tien;
tsin was Seng-kO-lin-sin, Mongol gem
eral, who later distinguished himself
less creditably. In 1850 he sought to
defend Tientsin against foreign ex-
petition by erecting an immense mud
rampant outside the city. Tlentsln
was captured and held for two years
by the British and French and the
crude defense is known in the foreign
quarters as "Seng-ko-lin-sin's folly"
The region about Tientsin was
known as Chi-chou, under the Hsia dyn-
asty, whose rulers, 1000 years ago,
already had court astronomers who
could predict eclipses. Later it was
called Ya-chou, in the Chou dynasty,
marked by the western wars waged by
Mu-Wang against TIE "Dog Barbara
ans" thought to be ancestors Of the
Huns. Tientsin dates back at least
to the fourteenth century.
Immense Salt Industry.
The salt industry in the neighbor-
hood of Tientsin Is prodigious. Wind
mills are used to pump salt water into
the fields along the Halo river, where
the wldely-known Chang-lu salt is
made. Before the war nearly 10000
tons were produced annually. But
Tientsln is important commercially in
many respects. 1t is a rice market,
and Siberia's tea formerly was shipped
through here. Exports were as varied
as the needs Of the dozen or so nations
which had separate settlements along
five miles of the river front, and its
imports were as diverse as the COM
modities those nations had to ex-
change.
The Peiho and Hunho rivers con-
verge at Tientsin. From the latter to
the Yangtsze-Kiang extends the Grand
canal, that remarkable specimen of
ancient engineering, mentioned by Con-
fucius, which originally was more than
1000 miles long.
Tientsin has more people than Bos-
ton. 1t is the principal city Of Chin
Ii, and is Sc miles southeast of Peking
by rail.

Former Ball Player
Now a Famous Singer
Plays Here Tomorrow

Few OF the Omaha sport fans re-
alize that one of their old idols OF
the Western league will be in Oma-
ha tomorrow at the Brandeis thea
ter. when the we'll known Irish
American baritone singer Barney
Reilly, is scheduled to sing some OF
the old French and Italian airs, as
we'll as some of the Irish songs
with which he made his greatest
impression on music lovers.
A few years ago one of the most
famous of Yale athletes rose to
lead the cheering at great mass
meeting previous to the Yale-Har-
ward foot ball game. AS the shout
ing ceased the students called on
their cheer leader to sing. Being
anxious to please, he sang that old
favorite, Mother Machree, with
all the caressing tenderness which
is associated with the genuine
Irish voice.
The wild enthusiasm aroused by
his singing created in the young
athlete the desire to become a star
in the musical world. Today Bar
new Reilly is realizing the aspira-
tons of his early college days. He
worked his way through the Bos-
ton high school and then through
Andover. At the latter school he
was a star in foot ball and base
ball. From Andover he went to
Yale, where his foot ball and base
bali prowess kept him in the lime
light AS halfback Of the Yale foot
bali team and as a member of the
penuant-winning Chicago White
Sox he acquired a national reputa-
ton in the sport world
