The story told, by Ida Welcome is a

she learned the barber's profession and
engaged In that occupation until nerv

Unable to raise funds, she says, she
was compelled to enter Into a life of
shame. She had been taken in a Japan

restrained aurroundlng3 ot modern so
ciety. The distinguishing features of
the ensuing story are a healthy op
timism, a gay Joyousness in every
phase of life, and a pointed wholesome
ness that combine to make a delicious
comedy surprise. One can readily im
agine the humorous possibilities of
suddenly introducing a fearless, dis

into a sphere where nearly everything
is restrained, and many clrcumstauces
markedly wrong.
Above all. Mr. Knoblauch's faun is
a messenger of happiness, and he takes
a primitive pleasure in spreading de

Joy according to the strnlghtforward
creed of nature's world. Few plays of

With the heroic rescue work which

ship Itself two years aco several hun
dred miles off the coast of Seotlanfl
when the vessel was rescued by the
steamer Carpanla, of the Allan line.
"The heroic work which the Carpa
thla did In the dreadful disaster to
the Titanic recalls that it was only two
years ago this Spring when the Car
pathla itself sent out frantic cries for
help, when both of her propellers were
broken." said Mrs. Baker. "With a
heavy passenger list, the Carp.nla. Just
ready to enter the Glasgow harbor,
heard the crle for help, and we turned
back with the shores of Scotland al
most in sight, and made out more than
300 miles .in a wild sea to rescue the
passengers of the Carpathia. The Car
pathla was reached after a day and a
half and its passengers were frantic,
some having been locked In thr ir state
rooms and cabins. Tt took the Carpania

after the latter was sighted, as the ship
was unmanageable in the rough sea,
without propellers.
"The captain of the Carpathia. who
was, I believe, the same captain who
so heroically aided the Titanic wae the
last to leave the boat.
"While that was a. minor accident,
compared with the terrible catastrophe
of he Titanic, I can well Imagine the
horror felt by the victims of the wreck
as well as by the passengers on the
rescuing ship. One has no conception of
a panic at sea. A panic on land is as
child play In comparison. Short rations,
hair-raising fear, hope against fate,
and an Insane excitement make an ac
cident at sea an experience that will
never be forgotten."

man that I am quite sure that he is

Verv often these troubles come from
a weakening of the kidneys.
The kidneys have a heavy task dur

weakness usually gets little attention

break down.
And when the kidneys are sluggish

Backache is likely to become a con

restlessness at night, too frequent and
