Helping Kidneys
By Clearing Blood
A Function Greatly Assisted
By a Well-Known
Remedy.
Most rondors will hp Interested to more
Nearly mulrrstand why analysis of urine is
to important. In tlie use of S. R. s. to
purify the blood, its action Is a stimulant
to the myriad of lino blood vessels that
make up the constructive tissues of the
kidneys. All the blood from nil over the
body must pass through the kldnovs. They
net as testers and assayers. And according
to what they allow to pass out In the urine,
both as to quantity and materials, the
health of the kidneys and the qunllty of the
hlood Is determined. The eatalytic energy
forced by S. S. S. is shown in the urine.
It is also demonstrated in the skin. And
ns the blood eontinues to sweep through
the khlneys the dominating nature of
S. S., acting ns it does through all the
avenues of elimination, shows a marked
cieerense of disease manifestations as dem
onstrated by urine analysis. This assist
ance is a great relief to the kidnevs. The
body wastes nre more evenly distributed to
the cmunctories; their elimination is stim
ulated by the tonic action afforded the
Jlver, lungs, skin and kidneys. Thus, in
cases of rheumatism, cystitis, chronic sore
throat, huskiness of voice, bronchitis, asth
ma and the myriad of other reflex indica
tions of weak kidney action, first purify
your Mood with S. S. R., so it will enable
the tissues to rebuild the cellular strength
nnd regnita the normal health.

How Mollie
Escaped
; The Escapade of a Young •*
Nurse
By AGNES G. BROGAN I.
•l-H-I-M-M-l-M-H-H-H-H-I—H-I-M-S*
When Mollie had lluished her course
In social economy nnd domestic sci
ence nnd hud served out u lull term
ns settlement worker she calmly pack
ed her trunk, prepared to repair the
wear and tear of overwrought nerves
In u nearby sanitarium. Nothing ever
happened to Mollie exactly ns It
should. In the lirst place, people of a
rebellious and adventurous disposition
nre correspondingly supposed to he
the possessors of rebellious or stray
ing locks, of ditrk eyes with mischiev
ous glint, while saintlike natures In
variably wear countenances of saint
like repose and blue eyes (preferably),
wide nnd trusting. Mollie wore the
saintlike expression, even ns she open
ly flaunted her willfulness. Again,
one would expect u creature so demure
of mien to And her chief pleasure nnd
duty iu the home. Mollie might have
been satisfied to display her executive
ability there had motlmg not been so
hopelessly old fashioned. Mother lmd
her own ideas about housekeeping,
which quite eliminated Mollie's busi
nesslike system.
So the "rest cure" was the end of
all her demonstrations and theories.
Viciously Mollie tossed n kimono Into
the trunk, while her fair face main
tained its usual placidity. “I'll get it
over as soon as I can," she remarked,
“and client my relatives of the fiend
ish delight of saying. 'I told you so.'"
So a brief note fastened to her pin
cushion was all that notified her en
during family of Mollie's departure.
“Gone to the sanitarium," the note in
formed them. “Let you know when
I'm ready for visitors."
Mother read it with a troubled
frown, but father’s face showed visi
ble relief. “Thank heaven,” he ex
claimed. “for a time, at least, we will
know where the girl is!"
“Dear me.” sighed mother, “you
don't think Mollie will try to reorgan
ize the hospital, do you. or publicly
complain of its management? 1 should
be so embarrassed."
Father's eyes twinkled. "Don't you
worry," he replied. “She will find her
Waterloo there.”
But whether she did or not still re
mains a question. Certain it is that
Mollie's first act was to rearrange her
room. The electric bulb had to he
changed to a more desirable (though
forbidden) position as a reading light,
and the bed was pushed into a more
convenient though opposite corner.
Mollie was still flushed with exertion
and triumph as the nurse entered.
“Dr. Watts wishes me to announce,"
sahl that person, “that the hospital is
now under rigid quarantine. An out
break of diphtheria in the building has
made this precaution necessary. All
patients nre required to remain as
closely as possible within their own
precincts—until further notice."
Mollie sank in an Incredulous heap
on tin' foot of her lied. "You mean,”
she asked, "that I am to be kept here
—me—forcibly—against my will?”
The nurse nodded. “You have been
much exposed.” site replied.
“Well, go back and tell Dr. Watts
from me—tell all of them—that l won't
stay.” said Mollie, “nnd that's plain.”
Tile nurse smiled in maddening su
periority. "1 am afraid you will have
to. Miss Stillwell. We are acting in
accordance with the law, and llie city
health officer is here now to see that
law is enforced.”
“And if." persisted Mollie, “this
‘worthy’ Imagines he finds some sus
picious indications—what then?"
“You will be detained—for u time.”
As the door closed Mollie went over
and stood looking out of the window.
A moment since she had decided to
remain in this pleasant, restful place
ns long as the spirit moved her. Now,
under forcible restraint, all the antag
onism of tier wayward nature arose in
revolt. Far below the lights of the
city mocked tin; twinkling lights of the
hospital. Wonderful things were hap
pening there, no doubt, und youth was
taking freely its rightful heritage of
pleasure freely. Angry tears splashed
down on Mollie’s little clinched hands.
She would go back this very night.
She would defy them to hold her. She
swung about In sudden response to one
authoritative knock at the door; then
it opened to admit a tall and very de
termined appearing young man.
"Good evening." said the young man.
“Good evening." grudgingly repeated
Mollie.
“I am the doctor." he went on, “from
the health department—Dr. Joyce.”
"I thought you were.” said Mollie.
“You have received notice. Miss"—
he consulted his notes—“Miss Still
well?"
“Yes; X have had notice,” agreed
Mollie.
“i must ask you, then, to he in my
office upon the lower floor at precise
ly 8 this evening. 1 aui leaving the
hosidtal at 8:15."
"I shall he leaving the hospital,
too,” said Mollie.
The young doctor glanced over his
notes ns though he had not heard
aright.
“No patients are permitted to leave
without n written discharge,” he in
formed her.
"Well. I'm going without one," Baid
Mollie.
At this surprising remark the doctor
frowned; then the guileless expression
of the sweet lace upraised to Ids
changed Ids irowu to a smile. "You
enu't go, my dear girl, until you are
released," he sold. "This tiling Is
done for your own good as much as
for others’. Heller face the clivuui-
stance sensibly. You are but a tem
porary pitsoncr."
"If I am a prisoner.” Mollie retort
ed, “tuko wurulug, for I shall es
cape."
"That will he—impossible. My pur
pose here tonight is to see that quar
antine is enforced."
Slowly Mollie looked into Ids eyes.
They were line eyes, with a true,
steady light, she observed; eyes not
to be coaxed or swerved from their
duty; kind eyes, with regret In their
depths that they must be stem. Turn
ing from them thoughtfully, Mollie
again took up her post at the win
dow. When she looked back a smile
trembled about her lips; an excited
flush tinted her cheeks. "All right,"
she called. "Goodby tinlil 8, Dr.
Joyce."
When she had heard the lust echo
of Ids footsteps down the corridor Mol
lie ventured out upon a tour of Inves
tigation. Near the stairway she was
met by a genial Interne, ostensibly on
patrol. “Oh, be good!" he admonish
ed, and she retreated to her room.
Shortly before 8 the nurse arrived
with an intolerant ntr of espionage.
Mollie greeted her Joyfully. "Now,"
cried she, "we will have time to look
over the photographs l have wanted to
show you of your 'settlement' friends.
This, ns you know, is the matron." In
eager Interest two heads bent over the
views.
“Would you believe," Mollie present
ly reminded, "that It is now time to go
downstairs?" The nurse arose direct
ly. At the doctor's office she waited
until her charge lmd entered the room.
“1 will call for you in the course of
half an hour," she said.
Safely Inside. Mollie heaved a sigh
of relief. Yes, the moments stolen by
the showing of the photographs had an
swered their purpose—the doctor had
gone. He lmd spoken of leaving the
hospital at 8:15, nnd Mollie hud plan
ned nml desperately counted upon find
ing the room empty; then it would ho
but one daring dash to the “entry"
and—freedom. Wlmt Joy to conquer
that determined young surgeon—what
humiliation to suffer defeat at his
hands! Suddenly Mollie's wandering
gaze fell upon a fur coat thrown upon
the couch. The doctor’s hut and medi
cine ease lay beside it. So lie was
still in die building; had stepped oat
perhaps to Inquire of her lateness; iu
a moment he would return and then-
tier resolve instantly made, Mollie
caught up the long coat, buttoning it
about her tall young figure. With a
gleeful chuckle she pulled the soft hat
down over her ears; then, medicine
case in hand, looking neither to the
right nor left, she strode across the
bull, and the great, noiseless doors clos
ed behind her.
When Dr. Joyce re-entered his sanc
tum a short time after he Impatiently
summoned the nurse. "If Miss Still
well has changed her minil regarding
that appointment she must let me
know," he said. “I have already wait
ed past the time asked to bring her
here."
“I did bring her,” the nurse answer
ed perplexedly, "a little while ago."
“Then she has no doubt returned to
her room. Kindly make Inquiry.”
But Miss Stillwell was not to be
found in her room or in the corridor
nor, upon a later search, in the entire
hospital. When Dr. Joyce looked about
for ids coat preparatory to interview
ing his waiting chauffeur the coat had
mysteriously disappeared. So also, upon
further investigation, had the doctor’s
car itself. Visibly perplexed, the usu
ally calm minded doctor returned to
the office. A search of tin* adjoining
hospital grounds failed to throw any
light upon her disappearance, and the
doctor was about to settle down into
wrathful despair when the telephone
hell jangled across his troubled senses.
“Dr. Joyce.” questioned a merry,
mocking voice, “are you still enforc
ing quarantine? Because if you nre
you had better send back for your au
tomobile. I bad to borrow it iu order
to get away. The hill was very dark
nnd very steep. This Is Mollie Still
well.”
“ You—got—awny ?” The doctor seem
ed incapable of grasping any other
fact. “Yes.” the triumphant tone con
tinued: "your car beneath my window
gave me the idea, but I never should
have been able to reach It unobserved
without the aid of your soft hat and
long cloak obligingly left upon the of
fice coueti. The medicine case helped
too. You had told me that your chauf
feur would expect you at 8:15, so I
jumped into the cur at Just that time.
It seemed advisable to slip out of It at
your house door—so I did. But when
the man had driven awny it wsis nec
essary to bring your things home with
me. nnd now, with all due apologies,
how shall I get them to you?”
Tlie question broke off in a breath
less laugh, while a sudden smile
twitched at tlie doctor's lips and grew
and danced in tiis deep set eyes.
“Am I to understand that you delib
erately- made your escape in my coat,
in my car and currying my tools and
toxins with you?”
"I did." The admission was, far from
regretful.
“Then under the circumstances''—be
paused Impressively—“there is but one
thing to be done. With your permis
sion I shall cull to collect my belong
ings." '
“IMease come—at once.” said Mollie.
And. while her friends agreed Mol
lie should have had a husband to con
trol her wayward will, she married the
surgeon who glories in It instead. But
“nothing ever happened to Mollie ex
actly as It should."
Somewhat Suspicious.
•'It is a wise plan, when there is any
necessity for keeping a thing secret, to
say nothing bearing upon it before the
children,” said a gentleman who is not
now on the best of terms with his
neighbor.
'1 had a bed of very choice gerani
ums for which the cat from next door
evinced a liking. It admired them, not
from the path, but from various posi
tions in much closer proximity, which
was not exactly good for the genari-
ums.
‘‘My advice to the owner of the ani
mal to keep the cat at home was re
ceived in none too friendly a spirit, but
I bore with the nuisance for some time,
till my patience gave way, and one day
the cat vanished.
'The next door did not charge me
with any crime. He was far too astute
a gentleman. Instead, he lured my
youngest boy round to his garden with
some cherries.
' 'Your father hasn’t by any chance
been saying anything about cats at
home lately, has he, George?’ he
asked.
George shook his head.
“ ’Nor your mother, eh?’
“ ‘Not a word,’ replied George. ‘Only,
when father was cleaning his gun last
night, she said she thought we could
risk leaving the milk jug on the steps
this morning.’ ”
Neatness In Attire.
Philadelphia Press.
fcThe fixed habit of presenting always
a neat and cleanly appearance to the
world is sure of a double reward. It
not only creates a favorable impression,
but begets a sustaining respect. It is
scarcely reasonable of a mun who does
not respect himself to look for respect.
It is not the cost of clothing, but the
scrupulous care of it that countB. The
man of slender means should be neither
•‘toppy” nor “sloppy,” but always tidy
and neat in his attire, seeing himself
with the coldly critical eye of a possi
ble employer to whom an applicant’s
dress may mean much more than his
address or politest deportment.
Style in writing, as defined by the
fastidious Chesterfield, in the dress of
thoughts, so the true style of the
average man be correctly surmised
from the care he takes of his personal
appearance. He need not be finicky,
but should always be free of grease
spots and dust. He should like his
bath even if it has to be taken by
means of a bucket. He should never
neglect to brush his hair, his shoes, his
teeth, his coat, trousers and hat. If
he can’t afTord a pressing iron he
should put coat and trousers under the
mattress and sleep upon them. If
laundry is a serious item, he should
wash his own handkerchiefs, dry them
on the window panes, and never by any
chance be seen with a soiled one.
A Negro Prayer.
At a meeting held recently in Virgin
ia an old colored preacher in opening
the service prayed thus—
“O, God of all races, will you please,
Sir, come in an' take charge of the
min’s of all dese yere white people an’
fix dem so dat dey 'll know and under-
stan’ dat all of us colored folks is not
lazy, dirty, dishonest, and no account;
and help dem, Lord, to see dat most of
us is prayin', workin’, an’ starvin' to
git some lan', some eddication for our
selves an’ chillun’, an’ git true ’ligion,
an’ dat mos’ ebber nigger in North
Hampton county is doin’ his ties’ to
make frien’s and git ’long wid de white
folks. Help dese yere white folks, O,
Lord, and while you is takin' clmrgu of
de min's of deBe white people, don’t
puss by de colored folks, for dey is not
perfec’ —dey need you as much as de
white folks does. Open de nigger's
blin’ eyes, dat he may see dat all de
white folks is not mean an’ dishones’
an’ prejudice’ ag’inst de colored folks;
—datdere is hot ea’, hard-workin', juB',
an’ God-fearin’ white folks in dis yere
community who is tryin’ de bes’ dey
know how, wid de circumstances ag’inst
dem, to he fair in dere dealin's wid de
colored folks, an’ help dem to he 'spect-
ahle men an’ women. Help us. Lord,
black and white, to understan’ each
other more an’ more eve'y day.”
John’s father kept a candy store, and
the little fellow often brought candy to
school to divide with the other children.
One morning the teacher noticed a
strong smell of peppermint and began
to investigate in order to stop eating
during school hours. Unable to detect
the culprit, she bent over small John
and whispered:
John, have you any candy?”
“No, ma’arn,” he replied.
“Have any of the other boys any?”
"No, ma’am.
As she turned away he touched her
hand and said: ‘'I'll bring you some at
noon.”

Mr. Golden had a new office boy. A
few days after his arrival some money

Calling the new boy into the private

"There is $10 gone from my cash

"Well,” replied the hoy cheerfully,
