Prevalency of Kidney Disease, Most people do not realize the alarm- ug increase and remarkable prevalency of kidney disease. Whilekidney dis- orders are the most common diseases that pre- vail, they are almost the last recognized by patient and phy- sicians, who co mmm tent themselv with doctoring the effects, while the orig- inal disease undermines the system. ‘What To Do. ‘There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage, It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne- cessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most dis- tressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

The Worst of It. “Bilkin’s cat yelled for three hours the other night, and then I got up and threw a lump of coal at it.” ‘Hit the cat?” “Nope. I hit Bilkins, who had just some out to let the cat in.” “There must have been some satis- faction in that.” “There was for a moment, and then Bilkins returned the coal through one of my plate glass windows. But that n’t the worst of it.” “No?” “No. He went in the house and left the cat outside yelling.” Signe ane, SUFFERED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS. With Eczema—Her Limb Peeled and Foot Was Raw—Thought Amputa- tion Was Necessary—Believes Life Saved by Cuticura. “I have been treated by doctors for twenty-five years for a bad case of eczema on my leg. They did their best, but failed to cure it. My doctor had advised me to have my leg cut off. At this time my leg was peeled from the knee, my foot was like a piece of raw fiesh, and I had to walk on crutches. I bought a set of Cuticura Remedies. After the first two treatments the and in two aonths my leg was cured and the new skin came on. ‘The doctor was sur- prised and said that he would use Cuticura for his,own patients. Ihave now been cured over seven years, and but for the Cuticura Remedies I might have lost my life. Mrs. J. B. Renaud, 277 Mentana St., Montreal, Que., Feb. 20, 1907.” His Revenge.

Reaction to Simplicity Has Followed Extremes in Size and Decoration— Design Easily Fashioned by Home Milliner. Women of every generation since Eve’s time have taken to many pe- culiar notions in the matter of per- sonal adornment, and as one looks at the fashion of times gone by, as re- flected in the writings and prints of the period, the thought always is up- permost that there is no accounting for tastes. This thought may apply to our own day in the matter of hats, for if there ever has been anything more absurd than are the present fash- ions it is not recorded. While the summer lasted there was little pros- pect of a diminution in extravagance, alike ih size, color and decoration, and, while many of the greatest ex- tremes are shown at present, both in size and manner of trimming, there are signs of a reaction to styles of a studied moderation and unquestiona- bly good taste. In color there is a de- cided tendency. towards green of va- rious shades. a The ffect of many hats is spoiled by the dressing of the hair, which fre- quently has an inclination to allow the deep brim at the back to drop too low down over the shoulders. An appear- ance it would be impossible to make more unbecoming is the back view of a deep brimmed hat flattened against the head, and the edge meeting a feather boa. Just at présent it is fortunate that there is such an admirable array of untrimmed shapes. This should be an encouragement to the home milliner. A great many women who cannot de- sign hats or methods of applying trim- ming are quick to tell at a glance when they see a hat whether or not it would be becoming, and if they are good at copying can turn out a most beautiful looking hat for a compara- tively small price. A jaunty, smart little hat is shown in black velvet. It is a shape that, tilting way up as it does on the left side, would not be becoming to évery face, but if it did suit would be be- witching. The crown is covered per- fectly plain, then there is a narrow bow of velvet ribbon, which, lies flat against the side of the crown on the front, and a beautiful black plume comes from under this and falls grace- fully over the top of the brim on the left side. Bow and plume are held in place by a handsome rhinestone buckle. If one had a plume and could cover and make the hat it would not cost much and would really be hand- some. f POCONO OTT POINTS FOR NEEDLE WORKERS. Little Hints That Will Save Much Time and Labor. In knitting it will be found much easier when casting on stitches, if using very large needles, to introduce an ordinary steel needle in place. of the large one held in the right hand. Use the steel needle for knitting the stitch and pass it over the large needle. This is to be done only when casting on stitches. Handkerchiefs are marked in old English letters of a very small size. These tiny letters are often placed in the center of a circle done in the finest of over-and-over embroidery. 4 Yor sheer handkerchiefs use a very fine mercerized cotton. By reversing a shirtwaist pattern and lengthening it at the narrow part it may easily serve as a pattern for a skirt panel. Feather stitching is always a dainty finish for a child’s dress, but it should be very evenly done and as small as possible. No. 3 mercerized cotton is best for the work. Marking cotton in that soft, cool shade known as china is used a great deal in buttonholing and scalloping the edges of turnover collars. HOW VEIL SHOULD BE WORN. Some Things to Consider with This Indispensable Article. Invariably the veil should harmonize with the color of the hat, though dark gray and golden brown are fashionable shades that may be worn with almost any colored hat. The smartest driving veil is of ivy green chiffon, with tucked or hem- stitched border, and is worn pinned closely over the hat and face with flying ends. While this shade is best suited for the eyes, it also has the advantage over other shades that it harmonizes with almost any color. Complexion veils are clamoring for Nearly all dressy gowns have low, sweeping guimpe effects. The mushroom or butter bowl hat is giving way to flatter shapes. The latest purse is an alligator claw, worn swinging from the belt. Upon elaborate lace hats are used entire fur skins—head, tail, claws and all. One of the latest combinations of color for hats is prune and dull cop- per. That charming feminine accessory, the jabot of lawn and lace, becomes larger and frillier each day. Extremely high ruches of tulle or sheer batiste, reaching almost to the ears, are appearing on French frocks. Smart and exclusive are the linen collars striped in colors, and also those of soft gray linen for mourning effect. For tiny children the white feather bonnets, with an inside ruche of lib- erty satin and pink June roses, are pretty. The new balloon handbags, opening recognition again, but it is doubtful if they will be accepted by the multi- tude. Those who have adopted them are wearing coarse black meshes with white threads running in the oppo- site direction from the heavy threads. Instead of bareiy covering the nose, as formerly, the complexion veil now reaches to the chin, where it is re tained by a group of fine gathers. NEW IDEA IN DECORATION. Live Flowers to Brighten the Photo. graph Frame. A novel and pretty way of decorat:- ing a leather photograph frame that has become, perhaps, a little shabby and worn, is shown in the accompany: ing sketch. Two small glass tubes may be procured (tubes suitable for é the purpose may be obtained from al: most any druggist), and these should be fastened on either side of the frame. This can be done by boring two small holes in the frame, through which can be pushed, with the aid oi a pen-knife, little pieces of narrow rib- bon, the tube can then be placed in position, and tied in its place as shown. The tubes are, of course, for holding water, and flowers can be ar ranged in them in any way we fancy. out wide on a curved frame to expose all their contents, are an admirable innovation. Nothing is smarter among the walk- ing tailor mades than the elaborately braided coats worn with absolutely straight. hanging skirts. Long Coat Popular. The long coat is the most popular form of wrap for street wear. Black { broadcloth, braid trimmed, makes a practical, serviceable outer garment built on loose box lines and is becom: ing to the average figure. The redingote has returned to favor and is seen in the most handsome fab rics, lavishly decorated with braiding and embroideries. Only a tall, well proportioned figure should attempi this style of wrap, but on the righi woman it is stunning. The natty military coat is now fur nished with skirts—following the pre vailing fashion—that fall flaring quite below the knee. To Protect Wais*s. The “modesty vest” is a very usefu' bit of wearing apparel, as it is but toned to the back of a cloth coat ané protects the dark velvet collar fron soiling a white waist. It may be made of silk or linen. By BOB GUY (All rights reserved. International Press Association.) spluttering, gesticulating, wild-eyed man, hatless coatless, ushered to his carriage by a’most aston- ished and annoyed young man, was the spectacle witnessed by the customers of an ex- clusive downtown restaurant one evening just at the fashionable hour of six. As Dunford had entered the crowd- ed restaurant fifteen minutes previous- ly he had been the personification of prosperity. His immaculate clothing, faultless shoes and headgear, immense diamond, and walking stick with head of massive gold design, all gave evi- dence of the wearer’s substantial bank account, He knew it. That was why he bought them, paid for them, and wore them. Hence Dunford’s florid countenance and ro- tund figure fairly radiated with self- confidence and esteem. Dunford. nad a. daughter, too! Ye gods, did ever man have such a jewel as his Jane? Why his Jane was the embodiment of all things desira- ble. Bewitching, handsome, and as decorous and affectionate as she was handsome, Jane at eighteen was her father’s pride and delight. Left motherless at the age of ten, she had been a real chum to her father, Dunford’s importance fairly thrust itself upon those about him, for to-day he looked and felt his best. Jane was home from school for her Easter vaca- tion. She had promised her father that after an afternoon of formalities she would meet him here for dinner, and later they would attend the thea- ter. Jane was nowhere to be seen, so Dunford concealed himself in a cosy little nook to “see but not be seen.” He settled himself for a few moments’ wait. “If Jane would only wear that same gown which she wore last night, I can’t miss her; but Heaven knows! with her mania for fine feathers, I am taking uneven chances,” he chuc- kled, as he stole a hurried glance at the menu card. “Pardon my abruptness, sir,” said a business-like voice at his elbow. Dunford nearly “jumped out of his skin.” Looking up he beheld a neatly dressed and exceptionally prepossessing young man. x, “You see, sir, I am in the employ of the law,” he continued, deftly permit- ting Dunford a fleeting glimpse of the little silver shield fastened beneath his coat. “I take you to be a reliable citizen, hence allow me to request a little as- sistance of you.” Dunford, taken by storm, could only mumble a few incoherent words of objection. The officer bent over him and fairly spun out his words. “At the table yonder sits a very at- tractive young woman, for whom the police of three cities are searching. A cleyerly desperate character. Youthful in appearance but aged in vice. A meniber"of a notorious gang of thieves and general lawbreakers. An elusive “will-o’-the-wisp.” Invite her to your secluded table. She will accept with- out demurring. Once over here I can easily make my arrest without further disturbance, for I greatly respect the management of this place, as well as their patrons. You shall suffer no un- due publicity in the affair, I assure you.” ~ Dunford grasped the situation at once. As a good citizen he must aid the law. He must not delay but act quickly. He rose hastily, stepped noiselessly up to the young woman from the rear and gently tapped her upon the shoulder. She whirled quickly about. It was Jane! Dunford stood aghast; his round face now asnen. and his eyes starting from his head. Jane was panic stricken. Dunford in terror and uncertainty turned to ward her off the detective. The “officer” was gone! So was Dunford’s hat, overcoat, walking-stick, watch, diamond stud, and fat round money-roll, as he by degrees discovered. Only a small, neat derby hat, in whose crown lay an absurdly crude tin badge decorated with the signifi- cant numerals “23”, remained to com- fort the unwary one. Horse Dealing. Two or there generations ago Dr. Samuel Reed was one of the prominent physicians of Boston. His large prac- tice included many patients outside of the city limits, and these he visited in his buggy. 2 One day he bought a new horse, with which he was much pleased until he discovered that the animal had an in- surmountable objection to bridges of all kinds and could not be made to cross one As at tnis time it was necessary to cross some bridges in order to reach any one of the surrounding towns, the doctor decided to sell the horse. He did not think it necessary to mention the animal's peculiarity, but was much too honest to misrepresent him and, after some thought, produced the fol- loving advertisement, which he in- serted in a local paper: : “For Sale—A bay horse, warranted sound and kind. The only reason for selling is because the owner is obliged to leave Boston.”—Lippincott’s. When Rookefeller Plays. “The golf caddy,” said a Southern journalist, as he chewed a sprig of mint,” is a new type. This lad is inde- pendent, witty, altogether without reverence. On John D. Rockefeller’s visit to Bon Air he tried a little golf one afternoon in the neighborhood of Augusta. On a rather difficult shot Mr. Rockefeller struck too low with his iron and as the dirt flew he said to his caddy: ‘What have I hit?’ “The boy answered, with a harsh laugh: ‘Georgia, boss.’” It Sure Does.
