The Weather.
For most of um the weather Is still
oue of thuse minor unaccountable pow
ers, too capricious to be either quite
dlvluc or quite devilish, whom our sav
age ancestors used no doubt to placate
with offerings. We no longer do that,
partly because we have learned to dis
tinguish between religion and super
stition, partly because we do not be
lieve that the weather would care for
any offerings of ours. But still we
keep that primitive lingering idea of
the weather as something with per
sonality enough to make us angry with
it, and we still get some satisfaction
from telling It what we think of it.
The poets pay their tribute to good
weather and talk about the sun and
the rain aid the wind as If they had
a wonderful and beautiful life of their
own, and their poetry makes us love
sun and rain aud wind as if they were
indeed living creatures. But there are
many prosaic people who would de
spise such poetry .for Us unreality and
yet who personjfy bad weather Just
as much as the poets personify good;
to whom the. rain, when tli?.v have no
umbrella. Is as much an enemy as the
cloud was a friend to Shelley. We
can all abuse bad weather so well that
It is a pity we cannot learn to praise
good weather better.? London Times.

HIDDEN DANGERS
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Alaska Citizen Can Afford
to Ignore.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes
from tho kidney socretlons. Tliey wl
warn you when the kidneys are sick.
Well kidneys excrete a clear, amber
fluid. Sick kidneys send out a thin,
pale and foamy, or a thick, red, 111
smelllng urine, full of sediment and
Irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes

heavy, or sharp and acute, tell you of
sick kidneys and warn you of the ap
proach of dropsy, diabetes and Bright'
disease. Doan's Kidney Pills cure
sick kidneys and cure them perma

ment of a fellow sufferer.
Theodoro Josephson, 515 Seventh
St., Astoria, Oregon, says:
"About five years ago I used Doan' ,
Kidney Pills and dorived benefit
benefit. At that time I was suffer
ing from pains across my back and
loins, often so severe that I was un
able to stoop or straighten. My kid
neys also bothered me a great deal,
the secretions generally being too fre
quont In passage. At last Doan's
Kidney Pills were brought to my at
tention and I procured a box. I used
lliem and as a result my health Is
now excellent. I take a few doses of
Doan's Kidney Pills now and then,
when feeling any sign of backache
and they never fall to remove the
trouble."
