shape; With these three lots of Few People Understand or Realize it. A Clear Explanation of Its Nature and How to Avoid it Clearly Shown. What is this mysterious trouble that is coming upon the people? Why 1 it that we see so many men who look weakened, nerveless and wholly out of condition I Why are so many women, whom we see pale, with parched lips, dark lines under the' eyes and a general lack 6f lustre? These things seem to be greatly in' creasing of late, and without any ap parent cause. We see more men wto lack vigor than everbef ore. We mtet, more womi who seem broken-down than in the past.

Surely there must be a cause for all this and there is. Ihese trcuble3 can arise from but one cause, namely: disordered kidneys or urinary organs. Indeed, it Is now admitted that the region of the lower body isHhe prime source of most physical ills. When the kidneys become diseased the blood becomes poisoned and all the troubles such as sleeplessness, lack of appetite, nervekssness, tired and despondent feelings follow in its wake. The truth is, people are not well but they should bs, and they can be ifv they would only take the means tf recovery that are near at hand.

In writing upon this subject, Dr. E. A. Guna, Dean and Professor of Surgery of the United States Medical College, New York, says: "In a large class of ailments where the blood is in an unhealthy state, where there is no evidence of organic mischief but where the general health is depleted, the face sallow, the nrine constituting ithe "bilious" condition, the advantage gained from the use of Warner's Safe Cure is remarkable. I find also that in Blight's disease it seems to act as a solvent of albumen; to soothe and heal inflamed membranes and wash out epithelial debris which block up the urine bearing tubes." It is undoubtedly true that Americans, as a people, are in a more serious condition, and that there are complaints wnich have become national diseases.

But it is also true that modern science has provided an adequate remedy which is able to folly control it and supplant sickness and misery by health and happiness.

Horner of Piety Hill, where all unusual things happen that don't find good location elsewhere. "Tea," replied a mild (elephonlo voice, "this is 1,000.

What can we do for your" "You may yank this telephone out of my house just as soon as you can. Mr. Horner filled in the blank space with an expression entirely foreign to Piety Hill's vocabulary. "All right, was the mild reply. "I'll tell the manager." "Why, I thought you vrere telling me two weeks ago that the telephone was the greatest Invention of the century," remarked Mrs.

Horner's mother, who was Mr. Horner's mother-in-law. "I didn't tell you any such thing. I told you that a well managed telephone ex change might be made a medium for hu man comfort and convenience second only to the feather bed.

Horner ran his fingers through his hair and told his mother-in-law all about it In a manner that made her feel responsible for all the misadventures of the phone. "You women sit around the house all day and think it fun to answer the doorbell and the telephone and explain to some fool that he has the wrong number. But I'm too busy a man. I think too much of personal comfort. Do you understand?" There was no reason to suppose that Mrs.

Horner's mother did not understand, but she took advantage of the dramatio pause in Mr. Horner a speech to answer humbly that she apprehended. "Yes. You don't remember, I suppose. that the telephone is in my bedroom.
