Mrs. J. M. Line, 314 Missouri Ave.,

Kidney rills in the family for some
time and think they are just fine. My
kidneys were out of order and acted
too often, especially at night. I had
a steady, tiring ache in my back.
When I bent over or got up from a
chair, a sharp, cutting pain caught
me. I had dizzy spells ami .felt all
worn-out. Doan's Kidney mis com
pletely cured me."

Jess Willard, "Heavyweight cham
pion of the world," who Is coming
here with the Sells Floto Circus, has
an absolute faith in his own ability.
He figures out things for himself and
once he has made up his mind keeps
to the path he has decided upon with
small regard for the vlewsof others.
This does not mean that he scorns
the advice of others. He will listen
patiently to advice, weigh It in his
own mind, and then do what seems
best to him.
We should say that the keynote of
Willard's character is a keen faculty
for observation and a stubborn per
sistence. He has a power of unwav
ering determination which enables
him to labor patiently at an obstacle
until he removes It from his path.
When he started out to become a
fighter men laughed at his aspira
tions. No one took him seriously.
But he believed in his own star and
he followed it thru black clouds of
discouragement until it guided him
where he is today.
Physically, Willard Is a marvel.
Most men of his height have some
weakness but the present champion
Is wonderfully proportioned. He is
taller and somewhat more muscular
than the majority of men. His coat
of arms should Include a pine tree or
telephone pole. For all Ideas you get
of Jess are vertical.
It was Dec. 29, 1887, that Jess
Willard was born in Pottawatomie,
Kan., and as he grew he lived the
life of the outdoors, and the life of
the cleanly, both in body and In mind.
The ordinary habits of tobacco and
liquor never appealed to Jess. ' His
immense physique felt better without
them. " -
He was scarcely a boy when the
range called him. He became a cow
boy, and a real ? cowboy. At night,
when the "boys" would gather
around the chuck wagon for their ev
ening sports, it was Jess Willard who
always won the boxing bouts, with
hardly an effort.
His pugilistic record began "In
1911, during which year he won sev
en fights and lost one on a foul. In
the. next two years ho continued to
win from man after man, until Gun
boat Smith was given a decision over
him" In twenty rounds.
After knocking out Dan Bailey and
George Rodcl, he was finally matched
with Jack Johnson and knocked him
out in twenty-six rounds on April 5,
1915, thus accomplishing the task he
had set himself In the beginning of
winning the title of "World Cham
plon."
After that he did no fighting until
March 26 of this year, when he won
the decision over Frank Moran at
Madison Snuare Garden, New York
When Willard started the only
things In his favor were his size and
his determination to succeed. Today
he Is fast for a big man, he knows
how to hit, has n variety of blows,
and he has developed a very efficient
defense.
During the performances of the
Sellg-Floto Circus here Willard will
be first Introduced in his old role of
cowboy. Later ho will appear in
ring costume and with his sparring
partner illustrate how he won the
chat' pionshlp and also the punches
used when he defended the title at
Madison Square Garden.

In
The Function of Music
Recalling the substance of the pre
ceding articles concerning the origin
of music, we are subsequently led to
the conclusion that music contains a
far greater significance thnn Is ord
inarily believed. That, instead of a
means to amusement or even an ac
complishment, music reaches to a far
higher and nobler purpose In the life
of men even to soul development.
This fact compolls to regard music
as having a function as a sanction for
Its existence as a worthy achievement
of man. For all achievements of
man, which serve his well-being, are
undeniably sanctioned as worthy be
cause of their functions of Just such
serving. And so music, to be worthy
of man, must, therefore, have func
tions which serve man to his better
ment. Let us consider what the
functions of music are.
On the face of It, it looks as though
the hearing of pleasing melodies, the
possession of the ability to sing or
Play an Instrument skillfully were In
themselves sufficient rewards for the
time and money spent in acquiring
this skill or attendance at concerts.
Yet If this were all I am convinced
that the time, labor and money
would be Idly spent, for neither the
skill to perform nor the pleasure in
listening to music is sufficient benefit
to mankind, when these are gained
without reference to some all Im
portant end In the self-development
of man.
Man has found that a necessary
element In his general makeup, if he
is to be a social animal, Is sympathy;
and it makes no difference whether
this element Is Innate or acquired
through a process of evolution, man
has accomplished more and civilisa
tion has progressed faster through
sympathetic relations of man than
through almost anything else. Sym
pathy is a fundamental characteristic
of Christianity, and at no time has
civilization developed with such rap
idity as during the Christian era. in
the domestic animals such as cattle,
horses, dogs and cats we find a re
markable degree of response to the
cries, occasioned by various elrcum
stances among these animals. In man,
however, sympathy has a wider use
and meaning. Some are so peculiar
1v constituted ns to require more
sympathy to be bestowed upon them;
while others desire to give sympathy
rather than to receive It. Among
musicians the characteristic of sym
pathy is so great as to be mlslnter
nreted bv the uninitiated as an ab
normal desire for praise.
Music, s the language of the emo
tions or passions and as the means
for the portrayal of these conditions
of life, must necepsarlly require nu
man belncs of Intense sympathetic
susceptibilities for either the crea
tlon or Interpretation of the emo;
ttons of ian. And thoso who listen
to music must listen to It In a syra-
pnthetic attitude with regard to the
various conditions of life and to the
real significance of music.
If this be possible to both musician
md listener, and it l possible, who
would fall to return to the affairs of
ijfn with rennvo'i v'per-anrt In n-
more sympathetic" iittlHHe toward
the vicissitudes of life, influenced by
he pleasure derived from the music.
And this Is one function or musie-
the development of "ymnnthy. a very
needful characteristic of man.

Lincoln, Nebr.. July 19 The July
temporary school fund apportion
ment, amounting to $438,778.87. has
been made and warrants Issued by
the state auditor to the county treas
urers or the n'nety-threo counties in
the state for the proportionate
amounts due each one.
That the state financially Is In bet
ter condition than It has ever been
before in its history Is shown by the
balance In the state treanury at the
close of business June 30. 1918.
Treasurer Hall's statement showed a
balance of $2,369,786.37. A com
parison shows that Mr. Hall's predo-
cessor, at the closo of business Juno
30. 1914, reported a balance of $697
026.04, and was registering warrants
on which the state was paying 4 per
cent interest. The present balance
Is the largest by a million dollars of
any previous time, and the state now
is receiving Interest on state deposits
rather than paying interest on regis
tered warrants.
Commissioner W. D. Eastham
makes the following report of fees
turned over to the state treasurer by
the Insurance department from May
1, 1916. to June 28, 1916:
General and temporary school
fund . . . . ... .......... $41,216
Cash 1.917
Witness fees, general ...... 16
$48,184
In contrast to this were the fees
paid in for the Same period last year,
or several weeks before Mr. Eastham
took charge of the department:
General and temporary school
fund 119.007
Cash 1,080
ISA Afi7
"Uader the able management of Mr.
Eastham the Insurance department
has been rehibllltated. Its efficiency
Increased and better and more work
Is being accomplished at less cost
than has been recorded heretofore.
One of the striking examples of
democratic success in financing state
business is shown In a report just is
sued by Auditor Wm. H. Smith. The
report is given herewith:
In 1914 the assessed valuation of
all property in Nebraska was as follows:
Real estate $325,074,928.00
