GOyERNMENT CLERKS Ilse THEM,
Ottawa, Nov. 3. -One striking feature
of the Dominion civil servants is their
esprit du corps. The actions of one mem-
ber are mire to find favor in the eyes of all
the others. This is strikingly illustrated
by an incident that occurred recently. A
clerk in one of the departments found
himself the subject of kidney disorder. He
began using Dodd's Kidney Pills and in
a shot time was completely cared, He
bas told some of hie departmental con-
freres, and they watched his case closely.
After he was cured, the story ran around
the Government buildings like a trolley
oar, and to -day there are a great many of
the clerks, who happen to have tiiflealged
kidneys, using this remedy.
