Some Interesting Facts About Kid-
ney Troubles.
few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condi-
tion of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases
of serious Illness, makes a chemical
analysis of the patient’s urine. He
knows that unle’ss the kidneys are
doing their work properly, the other
organs cannot readily be brought
back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected
or abused in any way, serious results
are sure to follow. According to
health statistics, Brights’ disease
which is really an advanced form of
kidney trouble, caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1913, in the state
alone. Therefore, it be-

the health of these most important
organs.

Minister’s Daughter
On Battlefield
(Special to The Herald.)
Savannah, Ga., Oct. 30.—From let-
ters received in the home city of
Pleasant A. Stovall, the United
States minister to Switzerland, it
was learned today that Miss Pleas-
ant Stovall, his daughter, is comp,let-
\
ing her studies as a nurse, and is by
this time on her way to the battle-
fields. The Stovalls are at _ Berne,
Switzerland, where Miss Stovall is
one of the social leaders. Minister
Stovall was formerly a prominent j
editor in Georgia, and was appointed
to the Switzerland commission by i
President Wilson la'st year.
“How are you and that nice young
man in your office getting along those
days?’’ asked Polly as she and Flossie
rode home together on the street car.
“We are beginning to sit up and
take notice, or he is, at least,” replied
Flossie, patting the kiss-me-quick
curl just forward of a small and per-
fectly pink ear. “Just the same,
though, I am going to cut out the en-
dearing names.”
“You have never gone and called
him endearing names!”
“That is just what I did do.”
“Oh, Flossie! That is such a mis-
take. You must nxrer try to make
an impression on a man by calling him
endearing names.”
“I know that is true as a general
thing, but this case was different.
You see, there was a lull in the work
at our office, and we girls gathered
about the draftsman's board, and we
were gossiping there. Finally I crossed
my arms on the board and put my
head upon them and closed my eyes—”
“Headache?”
“Never had a headache in mv life.
Just a knowledge that I look gather
fetching with my long lashes brushing
my cheek, and my lips just slightly
parted.”
“And you certainly hat^e got pretty
elbows.”
“I thought of that also. While I sat
there with my eyes closed Lulu left
her place next to me to do some little
bit of work she had overlooked and
Mr. Gillis sat down in her chair. He
had a letter in his hand and he
reached over and gently tickled the
back of my neck with it, and I said:
‘Please don’t do that, dear,’ and there
was a world of sugary and tender
pleading in my tone.”
“Horrors!”
“Certainly! The other girls just
screamed! Mr. Gillis locked embar-
rassed and pleased, and he blushed
to the roots of his hair. Of course I

that members of the thirty-fourth leg-
islature could not qualify until the j

Rare Animals Are Added to the Washington Zoo
117 ASHINGTON.—From the almost impenetrable wilds of South America
*T have been brought to the Washington Zoological gardens a number of
specimens of fauna and fowl, regarded as among the most interesting and
rare of the present collection. Though
it is impracticable to take in many
birds and beasts at the present time,
due to the crowded accommodations,
officials say the new specimens weye
admitted on account of their rarity
and their experimental worth, in de
termining •• *■ they can withstand
this climate and thrive on the food
the zoologists are prepared to give
them. , .
Perhaps the oddest of the new
acquisitions is a Venezuelan sloth, “as
large as a tomcat,” distinguished by the absence of teeth. The animal is de-
scribed as inhabiting forests and feeding on the juices of fruits. It is a slug-
gish creature, and is a nocturnal prowler, seldom seen by day. as it hides iu
the hollows of the trees. Long claws and a soft coat of fur of protective
coloring completes his characteristics. The animal was caught by William
Feville, a collector of New York city,^ who makes periodical visits to the
southern jungles in quest of animals to supply American zoos.
Another of the late additions is a Guiana weasel, slightly larger than the
famiiiar American weasel. The possession of the latter -completes a pair of
these animals, as one was already in the local collection.
Other specimens supplied by Mr. Feville were a large number of birds
from South America, all of them marked by luxuriant and beautiful plumage.
Rarest of these are a pair of motmot^, so called from the charact<ir of
their cry. They are related to the American kingfisher, and are distinguished
by a growth of tail feathers of unusual length. They inhabit the densest for
ests an*d feed on insects and lizards. Their plumage is green and reddish
brown, relieved by a prominent blue band across the forehead.
Considerable doubt is felt among their new guardians as to whethefcthey
cen be kept herejjnused as they are to the food- and climate of this jflFrt of
the world. They JKre the first the local zoo has had and are regarded s-

Senator McCumber Sees Funny Side of Things
O ENATOR PORTER JAMES M’CUMBER of North Dakota has a keen sense
O of the ridiculous, though to look at the serious expression of his smooth-
shaven face one would never suspect it. #But if there is anything funny on
the horizon he w ill see it, even though
he has to borrow a marine glass.
In a fashionable photographer’s
studio in town is an exquisitely carved
chair used much for the posing of
celebrities of the feminine sex in eve-
ning dress. The top is surmounted
by a richly carved angel bending for-
ward in a graceful attitude. It is a
beautiful piece of work, but scarcely
appropriate for the setting in which
to place a Tammany alderman.
One day McCumber went to the
studio to attend to a bit of business, and on his way out passed the “operat-
ing room,” in which place Charles W. Fairbanks, then the vice-president, sat
as the victim. He was posed in thi6 elaborate chair, and just over his tal!
form hovered th^-wooden angel in ita airy attire.
When McCumber went out he began to laugh, and a friend who saw him
chuckling inquired the cause.
“Why, one of the richest sights I ever saw was just now up iu Blank's
photograph gallery,” the senator replied, “for there sat Fairbanks looking as
solema as an owl in a big chair with an angel pecking at his bald spot”

Moonlight Tango Under Monument a Capital Fad
O OCIETY folk of the nation’s capital have at last found something new. It
^ is the “moonlight harvest taAgo,” an outdoor affair, danced on the green
sward surrounding the Washington monument. Here is the formula: One or
two automobiles filled with women and
their partners, dancing kind preferred.
Add plenty of wraps to prevent danc-
ers taking cold. One dash through
the Speedway to a secluded spot on
the Wall, where the headlights from
the automobiles are used for illumina-
tion purposes. Spread laprobes care-
fully on the ground in Turkish fash-
ion, for use after the dames. Use
leather seats for tables. Carry full
supply of grapejuice, lemonade, sand-
wiches and other refreshments. Turn
on Victrola and tango. Several of theee parties have been held recently.
Congressional circles are all agog about the idea and it Is hinted that the fad
will ever, permeate into diplomatic and other circles.
The spot selected for the new dance is one of the m■»*-•* I ufifel in Wa h
ington. Directly back of the White House is the wonderful Mall. It extends
south of the executive mansion to the Potomac river one or two miles. Beau
fiful drives skirt its boundaries. <
All Washington is on wheels these days, so far as the vdungcr l ortior
of the noDulatloh is concerned: in other words, the voting folks are on rkas-r.
