Always starts in theone spot
But it don't slop there
The ache goes on,
Goes on up the back
Follows the nerve centers.
Von call it all backache.
Ought to call it kidneyacho
Pecause it comes from tho

from Iludyard Kipling since he went to

a long account of llritlsh disloyalty, which
ho calls tho "sin of witchcraft." Tho burden
of his complaint Is thnt llritlsh civil au
thorities in -Capetown wink at soml-treason-nblo
nets, and to quote his own words, "The
government will take care It does not pay
anyone to bo loyal." dlo says:
"Tho loyalist on tho border has his house
ripped on tho lnsldo by Iloers or robels, or
both. Tho disloyal farmer Is respected and
In turn ho supplies tho enemy with food,
horses nnd Information. Ills risk Is small.
He may possibly but not If his friends
can stop It bo nrrestcd on a chargo of

to bo trletl by a sympathetic Jury. He hopes,
and not without reason, to have his farm

'Moanwhllo tho loyalist's piano Is lying

house show the rooms ns though cyclones

Surpassing the expectations of the most
sanguine tho grand charltv ball oirnn tn
j Metropolitan hall Wednesday night will past
Into social history as ono of tho notable suc-
I cesses scored by the Jewish people of
Omaha. Tho largo ballroom of tho club
house was the sceno of a most brilliant as
semblage. Heprescntatlves of the select
Jewish society circles were out enniasso nnd
the gowns worn by the women were mag
nificent. Tho hall was prettily decorated for the oc
casion. Countless electric lights cast a"
radlanco over tho throng of elegantly
gowned women and conventionally attired
men. Tho Moral decorations presented a
contrast pleasing to the eye. Smllax nnd
evergreens were In evidence throughout the
entlro ballroom, arranged in a decidedly
artistic and attractive manner.
Last night's charity ball was given under
tho Joint nusplces of tho Jewish Ladles' Aid
and Sewing sucioly, of which Mrs. J. Son
nenberg Is president, nnd the Il'nal U'rlth
auxiliary, of which Max Morris is president.
Preliminary arrangements for the nffnlr
wero mndo by all of tho members of theso
two sorlotles, under tho leadership of tho
icspeetlve presidents. It was the llrst social
vent of this nature over undertaken by the
two socletli-s. Its success wus so marked us
to ItiBtiro future affairs of like description.
The prominence nnd luster of tho hall so
cially betokens Its triumph from a financial
standpoint. Tho net proceeds will aggro
gate a handfitirno sum, which will be used to
recoup the treasuries of tho societies by
which tho ball was given. The funds will
bo distributed for charitable purposes and
will be directed In Jewish channels.
Promptly ut 0.30 the orchestra began tho
grand march. This was led by llnbhl and
Mrs. Simon, Julius Meyer nnd Miss Lena
Kohfeld, who directed tho mov.omonts of the
largo number of participants through u
series of graceful evolutions. Following the
grand march came a program of fifteen
dances nnd several "c-:tras." During tho In
termissions the booths, presided over by
handFomo young women, having for silo
llowcrs, caudles, cigars nnd refreshing
drinks, wero liberally patronlzod. At mid
