All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minute*. The kidneys filter the blood.
Thev work night and day. When
heitUhv they remove about 500 grains
of impure tnitter daily, when unhealthy
-omo p*rt of this impure matter is left
in the blool. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms ? pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry
skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disor

pleasure at the present time to confirm
the statdmeni I gave some years ago in

I obtained from their use having
proved permanent. I used remedy

across the smail of my Imck, and was

This concerning a well known
Skagway boy and son of Mr. C. W.
Ask Is from a newspaper published
at Canaan, Conn., where young Ask
spent last summer.
"The spectacle of a city boarder do
ing real work on a farm is decidedly
out of the ordinary but there is one
of these exceptions on tho farm of
Charles Boaujon between Canaan
aud Falls Village.
"Carl Ask, whose home Is In Al
aska, is a student at Pratt Institute
iu Brooklyn. He thought it was not
feasible to return to his distant home
to spend tho vacation, therefore, from
a mutual friend, he heard of Mr.
Beaujon's farm and made arrange
ments to spend the summer there.
Instead of wearing out hammocks,
reading paper covered novels, watch
ing for the R. F. D. man and listen
ing for the dinner bell, he goes out
Into the field, does all sorts of farm
work and, in addition, performs tho
unprecedented task (at any rate for
a city boarder) of getting up at 3
o'clock in the morning, helps to milk
(he cows and then drives four miles
to deliver milk on Mr Beaujon's
route
"Naturall) Mr Beaujon thought
(he novelty of it all would wear off
with Mr. Ask but not so. lie has
continued to discharge his multifar
ious duties with the greatest of fidel
ity and Mr. Beaujon says lie never
had a better hired man or one who
was more faithful.
".Mr. Ask is to return to Brooklyn
and resume his studies in a week or
two. He is taking a course in illus
trating and shows marked talent in
this line. He has done some work of
this sort at Mr. Beaujon's although
his spare moments have been few
and far between."

which it speaks the words and sen
tences learned.

ORE AT DEPTH
OE GROFF HE
Word was received In the city to
day that the Chlcagoff Mining com
pany has .struck the lodge In the
lower tunnel, says the Juneau Rec
ord. This tunnel has been driven in
826 feet and has cross-cut the ledge
at a depth of 200 feet The vein at
this depth Is nine feet wide and car
ries the same high values as the sur
face ore which was so profitably
mined. Tho letter says that the ore
from tho point where the ledg? was
struck Is being run through the small
mill. An uprise to connect the lower
with the upper tunnel is now being
driven. The news will be gratifying
to all mining men in this district
proving as it does that the veins
carry depth and will encourago
others to develop their properties in
to producing mines.

Plaster of Paris.
The setting of plaster of parls may
be retarded by the addition of 2 to -1
per cent of powdered althea root. This
addition not only retards the hardening
of the plaster, but also enables it to be
cut, tiled, sawed and turned. Au addi
tion of 8 per cent retards the complete
setting of the plaster for about an
hour, so that the mass may be used for
tuiy purpose where it Is to remain plas
tic during at least a portion of that
time.

Russia suffers from famine on an
average every ten or twelve years.
