The function of the kidneys is to separat inor ao salt and water in the pro -essof cir ation, and to remove them and ,helrattendantOosonsfrom the body through Ibe bladder. Therefore when the kidneys become diseased and weak they are naturally anable to perform their work properly, and pains inthe back, infiammation of the b der ad urinary disorders are the result.

BROWN & CO. WIll Row TiLL Judgnent Day. There is a shivery, shaky legend among the people who live along the Hudson river which is to the effect that that stream is the everlasting boating waters of a specter who Is personified as Rambout Van Dam. Away back in colonial times Rambout and his friends were drinking until late at night. Finally this man Ram hout started for home, some distance up the river, in his boat, swearing that he would row the distance If it took "a month of Sundays." Rambout never reached home, and the superstitious people say that he has been c'ondemn ed to row till judgment day.

BROILING. - If the fire should be too hot, sprinkle salt over it. Birds and other things which need3 to be halved should be broiled insid-.a first. Always grease the gridiron well and have it hot before the meat Is placed on it Never put your fork In the lean part of meat on the gridiron, as It allows the juice to escape. Fish should be buttered and sprin kled with flour, which will prevent the skin from adhering to the gridiron. Remember that a hot, clear fire is necessary for broiling all small arti cles. They should be turned often to be cooked evenly without being burned. Cover the gridiron with a tin pan or a baking pan. The sooner the meat is cooked without burning the better. The pan holds the heat and often pre vents a stray line of smoke from touching the meat.-Philadelphia Ledg er. Paying Through the Nose.

C. 9' Carried It In His Head. When four years old. Mozart played minuets and learned music with fa ilty, and at the age of six he com posed a concerto for the harpsichord, which, though written strictly in ac cordance with the principles and tech nic of his art, was yet so overloaded with difficulties that it could not be played. It is related that Mozart once hap pened to put off some music that he had been engaged to furnish for a court concert so long that he had not time to write out the part which he himself was to perform. The Emperor Joseph, who was of a curious turn, chanced to be in the com poser's studio when he asked: "Where is your part? I do not see it among these sheets of music." "Here," responded Mozart, touching his forehead.-St Louis Republic. "Hanged" and "Hung." Perhaps the Bible has had an Infiu ence in preventing many people from distinguishing between the uses of "hanged" and "hung," says a London writer. They "banged" Haman, but the Jews in captivity also "hanged their harps upon the willows," and in the New Testament we read "it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck." If "hanged" was correct in either sense in the days of the authorized version, those who are not strong upon grammar may be subconsciously induced to believe that "hung" Is correct in both senses now. But it Is curious that the exclamation "I'll be hanged!" never appears as "I'll be huna!" Trial Catarrh treatment are being mailed out free. on request, by Dr. Shoop, Racine Wis.

The superiority of certain English fruits has its origin in a cause little suspected. It is the blessed gulf stres.m which does it. Foreign grow ers are every bit as acute as the Eng lish, It may be, but they have not the righ': atmosphere. The gulf stream imparts a beneficent humidity to our atmosphere which results in our fruit having the thinnest and finest skins of any in the world. The English straw berry is without equal for flavor. The English grape, tlr igh it may not have the fine flavor qpanish, has the best skin. 1 1 3 tomato is as thic skinne< a Lb English field grown.

Where Eperies. the picturesque Hun garian town. is now surrounded by beautiful gardens and fruited fields there was at the time of King Bela II. nothing but thick wilderness. Once this blind and unhappy sovereign was traveling in his realm. It was a hot, sultry summer day, and while search ing for a shady spot in which to rest he became lost. Deadly tired in con sequence of his long wandering, he asked his attendants for a drink of water. They seated him on the soft, green grass in the cool shade of big old trees, and then the cavaliers sep arated to hunt for a refreshing spring. Meanwhile the king wanted to find out more about his resting place and begali to grope about him with his hands. Thus he discovered strawber ries growing all about him, says the New York Herald. He ate them; so, partly quenching his thirst, he waited quietly for his gentlemen. After a short time they returned, some with empty cups. some with pearly spring water. The king then said to his attendants: "Have the trees cut down around this place where my hands found the re freshing strawberries. Here shall rise a town whose name shall be Eperies (st-awberry) in remembrance of this day for all time." As the king commanded so it was. The wilderness was cleared, and in its place Is a town whose arms carry the strawberry even today. Mr. E. L. Mards who conducts a gen eral merchandise business at Pope.

One day when his mother returned home she wa agreeably surprised to fird him working at the crank as if his life depended on it. "I don't see how you got him to turn the ice cream freezer," she said to her husband. "I offered him a dime to do it, and he just laughed at me." "You didn't go about it the right way, my dear," replied her husband. "I bet him a nickel he couldn't turn it for half an hour."-Harper's Weekly. A Dog's Jealousy. Dana is a huge St. Bernard who has his own Ideas as to his importance. Whenever he wishes to attract atten tion he kuoeks his water pail over and then rolis it around, growling at it and making a great fuss. Then he puts his head in and throws the pail high in the air, batting at it with his paws as it comes down. If this does not have the desired effect he picks up the pail by the handle and takes it into the barn, where the noise is increased by far owing to the wooden floor.
