" I was going for water," Deborah faltered, - pointing to the forgotten pails. Down to the old spring ? I'll go and help you. I haven't forgotten the way.

Blairmore, Alberta, July 1st— (Special).—Dodd's Kidney Pills are l thought of in the great Northwst as las they are any place Northwest else in the world. The people nave con- fidence in them. They do as they are claimed to do. Nor is the claim a ::mall one. Dodd's Kidney Pills are claimed to curd some of the most dangerous and deadly maladies that flesh is heir to, and what is more, they do it. The proof is positive. Thous- ands and thousands of reputable people attest it. For instance everyone knows Bright's Disease at one time meant the sentence of death. Does it now? Ask Arthur Coldly. of Somerset, Man. Ho was cured of Bright's Dis- ease, the last stages of it, by Dodd's Kidney Pills. Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure the lessor disorders of the human sys- tem arising from Kidney Disease with just as much certainty and an even greater promptness. Of these, Skin Eruptions, such as Boils and Pimples, arising from an -impure state of the blood aro not the most uncommon or the least distressing. Dodd's Kidney Pills, by improving the action of the Kidneys purify the blood, and Boils and Pimples itnu,- diatoly disappear. Walter H. A. Noble of Blairmore, Alberta, writes in this connection: "I had been troubled with Pimples all over my face, and Backache. I tried everything' to cure it, all kinds failed. divine but of me Kidno r ]]odcl's Y "I was teed tot y Pills and did so at once. I got three boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and took ono after every meal. They cured me. They aro the only things that ever did me any good. I will always use Dodd's Kidney Pills in ease of sickness and advise all other sufferer's to do so." —P— LONG TOM'S BREAKFAST. Feeding a Huge Python Against His Will.

Circus women, however, are used to it, and work with the precision that perfect system de - mends. Some of the women perform in two or throe acts, each necessitat- ing a change of costume, tights and all. JUST LIKE OTHER WOMEN. At 4.30 the afternoon show is over and then comps supper, which is really a substantial meal. Now comes an hour and a half of rust. Gathered about in groups in shady corners, the women of the circus come together, bring out their em- broidery and fancy work, chat, gos- sip, and talk of everything except their business, which is rigidly to- b000d. Seven o'clock sees them again in the dressing rooms and for the balance of the evening the rush goes on never seeming to end, At 10.30 o'clock the show is out and the performers go to the sleep- ing cars, and it is there that the women of the circus are at home. The sleepers are arranged exactly like Pullman cars, with swinging up- per berths, and are clean, well ven- tilated and attractive. As a rule each married couple has another married couple for chums. Their sec- tions usually are opposite, and their natural desire for neatness, from force of habit, if from no other cause enables them to decorate their berth with little articles of fancy work, slippers, cases, a tiny pair of silken curtains at the windows, a little cabinet with a lock upon the door, toilet articles in racks upon the bulkheads, snowy counterpanes—ev- erything, in fact, found in a well ap- pointed sleeping apartment in a house.
