Vanbrugh, Ont,, May 18—(Spe- cial).--One-more roan has proved to his entire satisfaction that 'the one sure care far sore bask it Dodd's Kidney Pills. That, man is Mr. E, Handke, a well-known •resident of this place, and ''he is telling his friends that Dodd's Kidney.. Pills saved him much lost time, and suf- fering as .w -ell. "I was laid up with sore back," Mr. Handke says. "At times I was not able to get up in the morning. But by the time I had taken one box of Dodd's Kidney Pills I found that the pain was getting less, and by the time I had taken six boxes I was all right and able to go to work again. "I want to say to any man who suffers from sore back that Dodd's Kidney, Pills are the only remedy I would recommend. They saved me a large doctor's bill and much lost time." Sore back is one of the symptoms of Kidney Disease. The natural way to cure it is to cure the sick Kidneys. Dodd's Kidney Pills cure sick Kidneys. If you haven't tried them yourself, ask your neighbors. Every neighborhood in Canada has some man or woman who has been cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills. WHERE "OBEY" ORIGINATED. Up to Thirteenth Century No Word of Unequal Vows. The researches instituted by the bishop of Oxford into the word "obey" in. the marriage service are now nearly complete. Before the bishop of Lincoln brought up the question of the dele- tion of "obey" in Canterbury con- vocation, the bishop of Oxford ask- ed Dr. Percy Dearmer, vicar of St. Mar"y's, Primrose Hill, to investi- gate the. point.'. "The Church of England," said Doctor Dearmer to a representa- tive of the London Daily Mail, "is the only historic church which has•. unequal vows in its marriage ser- vice. The word `obey' is quite ex- i eptionial„in Christian liturgies. As far as I have discovered, up to• the thirteenth century there was no ex- ample of unequal vows. The man said what the woman said. In the late middle ages they began to ap- pear in certain north German ser- vice, books and in certain English ones, but they do not appear in the Roman Catholic book nor in triose of the eastern, -the Greek and the Russian creeds. "Before the Reformation there were a number of books in use in England; the principal ones were those of York, , Sarum and Here- ford, The only one which contain- ed the principle of unequal vows was that of Sarum, yet the reform- ers, who wanted to do away With medieval abuses, adopted that very one. "Now that the history of `obey' is known, I do not think it has any chance of standing.” Every Sifii Jo nt imbered, ih eumatisin Cured ! That Old Family Remedy "Nerviline" • Is Guaranteed for the Worst "Cases. CURES NEURALGIA, BACKACHE, LUMBAGO. Rheumatism• to -day is unnecessary. It is so well understood and so read- ily curable that every day we have re- ports of old chronics being freed of their' tormenter. "I can speak confidently of the Ner- viline treatment, for the simple reason that it cured me," writes Albert 13. Cornelius, from Kingston. "You can't imagine how stiff and ,lame and sore I was. Nights at a time I couldn't sleep well. I followed the Nerviline direc- tions carefully—had it rubbed into the sore regions four or five times every day. Every rubbing helped to reduce the pain. The swelling went down. I got a fair measure of relief in a week, I also took two Ferrozone Tablets with my meals, They increased my appetite and spirits, purified my blood and toned up my system generally. "I am as well to -day as a. man could be—in perfect good health. I give Nerviline all the credit. A. large family size bottle of Nervi - line costs only 50c., or the trial size 25c., and is useful in a hundred ills in the family. Whether it's tooth clic, earache, headache; neuralgia, lame back or a cold, Nerviline will cure Just as readily as it will cure rheuma- tism. For family use nothing equals Nerviline. LIVE AS YEARS AGO. Experiment in Land Ownership Proven Big Suocees.' Fifteen years' trial' of a strange system of land reform in the little village of Wieterslowt near Lon don,. says a report from •Eiigla.nd;' has proven the- succuss of the plan, In. 1899 Major Poore, father of the Duchess of Hamilton, obtainedpori- session of the old village and tome of its environs, re-establishing a'lo- cal government, practically identi- cal to that of. the Saxons, there 1,000 years ago.

Saxon village hundred was cho- sen and this primitive legislature allottedland to heads of families Under contracts whereby the pay- ment for the land could be extend- ed over periods from 50 to 100 years. These plots surround a large com- mon, which belongs to the village and the grazing right of . which is held in per pet uity by the villagers. ' The village is now a self-sustain- ing community, and what was start- ed as more or less of a charity has proven successful commercially; All• of the villagers are free merein the old Saxon sense of the term, and the social and political life 'Of the pIace is based on this assumption of equality. The promoters have been chary of publicity, for fear that, the plan might not prove a success, but since this has been assured they have invited the leaders of the gov- ernment land reform schemes to in- spect the community.

The manager of a detective agen- cy recently establishedinthe Bel- gian university town of Louvain sent a circular letter to the parents of a number of students offering to send them monthly reports of the behavior of their••son;s for a, small fixed fee. The students heard of this, and several hundred of them marched to the offices of the detec- tive agency and broke all the win- dows.

Some remarkable figures we produced recently in London by 0 V. Drysdale in • the course of a address before the Royal Colon' institute on "The Empire and t birth rate." Mr.' Drysdale e that the registrar -general's report showed there had been a rapid a, steady decline in° the birth rate since 1876,` the chief factor of whin was the voluntary reduction of th fertility rate. The decline has be. largely n class one affecting first the richer and more cultured class .es, .and rapidly extending throng the various grades of the middle classes until it had now reached th skilled artisans, but not the poorei and most unskilled' laborer. Large numbers• and n-atienal eft were not to be secured by a high birth rate, especially in the lower strata of society. High birth rates invariably meant high geeeral and infantile, death rates, and, when accompanied by humanitarian legislation, 'a serious' process of re- versed election. The explantation of that apparent paradox lay in. the fact, which never seemed to be pro- perly understood, that the popula- tion of the world a,iid of nearly all countries was constantly being kept in cheek by insufficiency of food. That the rate of increase of popula- tion of a country depended in al- most every case upon its power of feeding the people by its own or important food, and not upon its birth rate, was a matter which statesmen would have to recognize. as ra za l he mad nd h e en h e st 1,14 Will Quickly Cure Any Sour Stomach Relieves Fullness After Meals.

English People `Turning Feathered Pest to Some Account. • In certain country places, espe- cially near towns, a new source of food is being exploited. At • one, *stockyard after another you may see village laborers stretching fold - nets for sparrows, and the birds are being caught simply for food. They keep down the butcher's bill. The number of sparrows is now immense, probably greater than it ever has been. The regular winter.. populaition of one small stockyard near London is estimated ' by • the farmer at over 2,000. These 2,000 mouths. s he fills largely with his grain. rhe sparrows have ec,m- pletely driven away .ajin.:os!t all other varieties of bird except a ie i ' fin•ehes. Thesparrow is said by the trap- pers to make an exceIlen-t state,. or . pie, or soup. It is a clean feeder, subsisting all the year, except for a month in the spring, on grain, and it takes, from the, farmer an enor- mous toll, Considering the enor- mous population of sparrows, it is not surprising that this source of 1,1, food is being tapped.
