upostk of a broader humanity
l<o not condemn until vou know, is
the first tenet of her creed, says
tho Portland Telegram.
This sincere, bis-souled woman
pleads for the immigrant—pleads
to.* him upon the basis of contact
and understanding; aslrs that we
hare tolerant consideration for the
conditions that made him an fiumi
srant, and that we do not lose sight
t'f the environment i.. which he is
plunged when he becomes one.
It wo'ild be well indeed for Aineri
• an civilization if Mary Antin ware
given the eloquence and the con
vincing power of the thousand
tongues of Peutacust, that we might
understand, as we should. that the
good American is .'.Itogether the
iirodiul of time and opportunity.

THK I'XOKR TOW
Cord»va Alaskan: The most dan-l
gerous part of a stream or current
is what is called the undertow.
It is an unseen treacherous sort of
water movement that entangles the
swimmer before he is aware of its
existence.
Li'e has often ben compared to a
stream, and for the purpose of this
articlt the analogy answers adniir
f'oly.
At the best of tin.ts the stream of
life is u. hard thing to grapple with.
The current is swift, and the weak
ling has little or no chance to stem
it. The waves of disappointment
break i. his face and tend to
strata le him, and he has many
other difficulties to encounter. But
the most dangerous of all dangers
is the unseen niu.ertow—the ex
istence cf which is not ev n hinted
at. A ill the undertow of the stream
of life is that depicable thing that
s;oes about making statements cal
culated to hurt the reputation of
■'onie (>'■ her person—statements in
which the guise of confidences —
>vordi :old in the dark—the under
handed creature v. host methods are,
r.r ought to be, regarded as being
\vnonvmous with those of tlie sneak
thief—the stealer of reputations.
It is not that he always lies—his
veracity is beside the point. Of
"ours", he generally exaggerates:
'.lit the focus of his specialty is
'hat he hurts—as the coward hurts.
We all have met the animal. It
flourishes mere In small towns
like Cordova and in isolated com
munities than elsewhere. There
should be some method of effect
ing h's destruction—ot' er than
the jihvsical.

After roudlujj the public state

conclusion: A remedy which prov

kidneys can naturally b'> expectod to
perform the same work in similar
cases. Read this:

three years ago 1 began to have
trouble with my kidneys. 1 went
from bad to worse ami about three
months ago my back began to
trouble me. 11 ached awfully and
was vtry sore. My head ached con
stantly and 1 was right down sick.
