Short Stories in Demand;
Short stories that are worth

Philadelphia Record quotes the
editor of one of the most widely

bundles of short stones, but few
of these are worth printing. I,,

There is a disease prevailing in this
countiy most dangerous because so decep

it—heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure

disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad

the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waute away cell by cell
Then the richness of the blood—the albumen
