DON'T NEGLECT YOUR KIDNEYS , T For Lame An aching back is instantly relieved by an application of Sloan's Liniment. This liniment takes the place of massage and is better than sticky plasters. It penetrates without rubbing through the skin and muscular tissue right to the bone , quickens the blood , relieves congestion , and gives permanent as well as temporary relief.

This lady must be personally acquainted with and responsible for any whom she presents , though at the same time the acquaintance may beef of the most perfunctory order. For Instance , the two may not have met until the day they attend the court , but in spite of that the lady un dertaking the presentation will , In n way , know all about the lady pre sented , and will have made all in quiries as to her antecedents , etc. Did she fail to do so the consequences might be very unpleasant , and she would certainly not be invited to court again were It to be afterward dis covered that she had presented some one not entitled to the honor. Having secured nn introduction to some lady of position , the next busi ness Is to beg of her the favor of pre sentation. This granted , the lady presenting writes to the lord chamberlain , board of green cloth , St. James' palace , ex pressing her wish to attend nt a forth coming court , Indicating the precise date If the dates have- been an nounced and giving the name and other particulars of the lady she wishes to present. If the latter bo unmarried , her fa tber's name and occupation ( if any ) /must be given , his address , that of his property ( If any ) , and so on , by no means omitting to state the national ity of the family. One often has to wait for an answer. Tl\o \ lord chamberlain may wish to prosecute inquiries on his own ac count , and the application may or may not be followed by invitations. Each lady , when applying , 1ms testate state whether she wishes to attend the first or second court of those about to be held , but it is not expected that any applicant should ask permis sion before Easter to attend ono of the courts held In May. Nowadays no one Is allowed to present more than one lady In addi tion to her daughters or daughtcr-ln- law. law.Should Should her application be accepted , she will receive the necessary cards from the lord chamberlain's ofllce ; but if any circumstance should inter fere with her being able to present herself on the date arranged , she can make her excuses In writing to the Lord Chamberlain , who will , if pos sible , and should she wish it , transfer her name to the list for a future court in the same season. The Invitations are always for 10 p.-m. , but most of the guests have al ready arrived and are in their places by that hour. Tbo unaccustomed visitor some times wonders how she will know ex actly what to do when she gets to the palace , and feels rather troubled lest she should be guilty of some solecism. But she need have no fear on that score. From the moment she alights she will find every step of the way made smooth. Her cards in her hand , she is guided by gorgeously-uniformed ofllcials to tbo cloak room , and , having left there her outer wrap , she is con ducted by other ofllclals up the grand staircase , always banked with bcauti ful growing flowers and bordered with tall palms on cither side. Arrived nt the top , she hnndu her cards to one of the group of attend ants , and is conducted to nn ante chamber , where she awaits the mo ment of her presentation. Peeresses nro led to the ballroom and conducted to their seats there , but all who are to bo presented , whether on accession to title , on marriage , or merely as debutantes , remain In ante chambers till the presentations begin. They miss the sight of the proces sion of royalties entering , of course , but have an opportunity of seeing it retire later in the evening. Courts are not now held In the throne room , as In Queen Victoria's day , but in the beautiful ballroom of Huckinglmm palace. At about 10:30 the royal family en ters , preceded by many officials in brilliant uniforms , the latter all walkIng - Ing backward with staves and wundK. The king wears a field marshal's uni form and the Ribbon of the Garter , with other orders. The queen , always oxquiultely dressed , also wears the Hlue Ribbon of the Garter nnd other orders , among which her own Danish ( a deep carnation red ) usually ai > - pears. Her majesty's jewels nro mag- nillrent. The procession Includes any other members of the royal family who may happen to be In town , nnd there la very often a distinguished guest. The peeresses and ladles of the dip lomatic corps are ranged on cither side , standing in front of the gilt chairs to which they Imvo been con ducted on their arrival. Among them are men In military or naval uniform , or court dress ( black velvet , silk stockings , and buckled shoes ) , and the scene is one of great beauty. The national anthem is played and the royal party passes to the dais , before - fore which debutantes and other la dles to bo presented pass. Directly the sovereigns have seat ed themselves a red silk cord is drawn across about four yards in front of them. On the other side of this cord the ladles presented hr.vo to pass , make a deep obeisance , and graceful ly back out without tripping them selves In their gowns. When the court Is at Buckingham palace , the normal regime of affairs is quite altered on Sundays. The members of the household rise an hour later on Sunday , nnd the num ber of ladies-in-waiting on the Queen and the equerries In attendance on Ills Majesty Is reduced usually by one-half. The non-resident members of the household , except on specln ! occasions , such ns when some foreign royal guest is being entertained by their Majesties , do not as a rule at tend at court on Sunday. Divine service Is bold in the private chapel at 11:30 : a. m. , which the king nnd queen always attend. The chapel is not open to the public , but members of the household are allowed to bring their friends to services on certain occasions. A very strict rule Is that the whole congregation must bo In their seats five minutes before the service begins and this regulation is scrupulously obr. served by their Majesties themselves. After service the royal party , which frequently include the prince and princess of Wales and their children If they nro In London , takes a walk ) in the palace grounds before lunch eon ; after which , the queen generally ! goes to Marlborough House , where slid constantly dines on Sundays. Both the king and queen dlsllko anything being done on Sunday that entails extra work on the servants of the establishment nt which they may be guests. In this connection , a story Is tolc of a mild reproof administered by the king to a certain peer with whom their Majesties stayed for the week end last year. Shortly before chusch time , three powerful motor cars came round to the hall door to convey the party to church , which was by road about a mile from the peer's residence ; bj taking a short cut , however , throng ] the park , the distance was lessened by more than half. Directly the king discovered this fact , ho determined ! to walk to church. "I really thought. said His Majesty to his host , "when I saw these motor cars that wo were going to a church in the next county. " King Edward and Queen Alexandria probably prefer to spend Sunday at Sandringham than anywhere else ; ns a matter of fact , they are , compara tively speaking , seldom able to do so ; it is , indeed , doubtful if their Maj esties are at Sandrlnghnm on more than a dozen Sundays In the year. Sunday at Sandringham is observed by their Majesties as It Is In many country homes , but perhaps the king and queen spend the Sabbath more In accordance with traditional English Ideas than others. Among the Sunday guests at Sand- rlngham Is frequently some well- known cleric who comes to preach at morning service in the quiet , homely - ly little chapel where so many crowned heads and other distinguished persons have worshiped. Their Majesties always make a point of joining their guests nt breakfast on Sunday when nt Sandrlngham , which , on ordinary occasions , is served to the sovereign and hlu consort In their private apartments. A feature of Sunday at Sandrlng- 1mm is the assembly of the whole house party that takes place in the great hall a quarter of an hour before church time. Their Majesties Jain the gathering and chat to their guests until It la tlmo to net out for church Follow this advice. Quaker Onts is the best of all foods ; It is also the cheapest. When mi oh men na Prof. Fisher of Yale University nnd Sir James Crichton Urownc , LL.D. , F.R.S. of London upend the best part of their llvoa In studying thp great question of the nourishing and strengthening qualities of differ ent foods , it Is certain that their ad vice Is absolutely safe to follow. Professor Fisher found in his ex periments for testing the strength and endurance of athleted Umt the meat caters were exhausted long buforo the men who were fed on cuch food ns Quaker Oats. The powers of endur ance of the non-meat caters were about eight times these of the meat eaters. Sir James Crichton Browne says cat moro oatmeal , cat plenty of it nnd cat It frequently.

To the Duolnesa Man : With onorci mous crops commanding the highest prices oror known ; with ovary kind of mslncBson n tmfa and sensible basis ; vlth tucrclmndiso ntocks of nil kinds nl- nest nt n minimum ; with everybody desirous of milking good all the nocca- sary Improvciuonts which the past two oars' depression would not penult of , nnd to 1111 up stocks which Imvo hccn almost depleted , with plenty of money and credit to do nil these things , there s n hesitation by the greater part of the business community , for the reason that something has appeared calling a halt In the progress which md so fairly started In the latter half of 1909. The ono great nnd most tin * j want | element which has caused this icsltatlon , Is that the railroad cor- loratlons of this country Imvo stopped ho purchase of anything beyond their immedlnto necessities , so much HO that betterments which had been projected , ( which nro not only better ments , but In n great many cases are almost , or eoon will bo neccnsltlos ) amounting to over ono thousand millions - lions of dollars , Imvo been held tip. It Is customary for railroads to prcparo their budgets of expenditures January 1st. If these budgets had boon prepared - pared on the lines of necessities the outlook for general business , partlcu- larly among manufacturers , would bo exceptionally good for 1910. These budgets Imvo not been presented , nnd nro not within the call , or oven within the sight of these who would gladly ; welcome them , and it Is doubtful when wo will bo nblo to make any reasonable - able forecast In the manufacturing nnd commercial world. It is unquestion ably true that the railroads would gladly enter Into a year of liberal expenditure , but as matters stand now , It Is qulto possible that they will bo | compelled to drop back Into the con- dltlon they wore In the latter part of 1907 and during the year 1908 , Umt Is , ' purchase nothing except that which Is absolutely essential , and the reasons , are exactly the same as these that existed In the early part of 1907 , that [ Is "Iladlcal Railroad Regulation. " Our legislators seem to bo unmind ful of the causes of the depression of 1907 and 1908 , and give every indl- cation of re-entering the Held with { oven more laws to Interfere with nnd j discourage the Investment of money In ! railroad enterprises , whether It bo for Increases or Improvements In existing lines , nnd absolutely calling a halt on new projected railroad enterprises. And the railroads Imvo not reached the position that they now occupy through any concerted plan ; they all 1 realize and appreciate the necessity of renewing their tracks nnd equipment that the recent depression would not permit of. This In the face of a very general actual or threatened demand ( for large Increases in the wages of , their employees , nnd knowing that the only way they can grant these ad j. vances will bo by .1 corresponding ad- | vajico In their revenue , and the only way in which they could Increase their revenue would bo by raising their rates , and certainly the outlook for this is far from promising. They Imvo no certainty an to the character of leg islation to come ; they are In positive fear of Congress , and are warranted , in that fear by special bills already introduced , which Is u sufllcient cause for them to hesitate. They nro not , certain that the people generally would favor any increase In rates , and ( they are equally uncertain as to whether the public would not side with labor in its increased demands upon the railroads. They fool as all owners of property naturally would feel , that the earning capacity of their property is now absolutely dependent upon the manner in which they shall bo gov erned. They do not know what that government IB going to be ; they are almost positive that there will , bo no legislation which will cause an in- Woman s Power Over Man "Woman's most glorious endowment io tlio power to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of a worthy man.

In fact , looking at It from nny point , the owners of railroad property have nothing to that would . . sco cncotirago them iu spending any money until they have a moro definite Idea as to what . extent they are going to bo con trolled and directed by the National Government , ami under such clrcum- stances . , all of the vast Industrial en * tcrprlscs that are depending upon the railroads , will find that at the tlmo . , that their present orders upon which they nro working , issued sotno six months ago when It was not dreamed of that the present adverse conditions could possibly nrico , will Iiavo boon completed , that wo will again bo la practically the eamo position that wo were . in during the early part of 1908. In my judgment unless Congrcso restrains - strains itn Interference with . the earn ing capacities of the railroads , there will , be a permanent set-back in the general business of the country , that it may take years to overcome. Some Congressmen think that the railroad interests are the real force . that Is behind the rapidly growing unrest - rest . of the business men regarding legislation. This IB absurd ; wo need , no spur to wako uu up to our unfor tunate situation , which Is by no incnna confined to railroad mipply institutions. There are l.DOO.OOO railroad em ployees. It takes 1,000,000 men to sup. ply what the railroads need , and a vast number of men are employed In supplying the personal nocds of the nbovo ! ,1,000,000 men. Kvcry kind of business is dependent in some ineas- uro on railroad prosperity. The producers of wool , cotton , lo- bacco ' , sugar and many other special articles in this country , have BO In terested ' themselves in tholr business that they have forced the General Govornmcnt to put a special protectIve - Ivo j tax on the things tlioy produce , which wo and our employees , who do not ' produce them , have to pay for , and ' to many of which wo do not ob- Jcct. On the same principle , and for the same ' reasons , when business men become - como as active In looking after their interests , and with the same rights , wo can induce the General Govern- mcnt to glvo us equal protection by allowing the railroad companies , who are the producers of our revenue , lo maka sufllcient profit to enable them to buy a full plenty of the goods they need which o manufacture , This wjll involve no special tax , will mean bet- tor railroad service , and moro busl- ness for everyone , particularly the working man ; and when it is consld- crcd that in reality 90 % of all the money received by the railroads and ourselves goes directly to the working people , wo should have the solid on- dorscmcnt and individual support of every working man In the country , Cause : The trouble with the whole situation is that many of the men who make the laws are not familiar with the true inwardness of the relations and dependence which the manufac > turing and business interests have . upon tlio general railroad situation , ' nor do they realize that in administer- Ing their so-called discipline to the railroad companies that wo are the "ul- tlmato consumers" of that discipline , Remedy : It is of the greatest 1m- portanco that some decided action bo taken by the Government at as early a rdate as possible , as there will bo no im- provcment until this uncertainty ban been overcome.
