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.

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 was missed from the cash drawer. Calling the new boy into the private office, Mr. Golden said, severely: "There is $10 gone from my cash drawer, Albert. Now you and i are the only people who have keys to the drawer. ” "Well,” replied the hoy cheerfully, ’’B’pose we each pay $5 and say no more about it?” You Need a Tonic There arc times in every woman’s life when she needs a tonic to help her over the hard places.
