From a. Well Known Citizen. , "My daughter PollyJ has for reoro than a year been troubled with se ere symptoms of kidney disease. She had con ta,nt and acute pains in her back. The pain 'n her head was fearful and almost uneudur hie. It frequeently pro. eu ted her from attending school, and she found study at hotne practical ly impossible. She had no appetite, and did molt sleep well. The pain was very severe around her heart and she was much troubled with fluttering and palpitation. She was completely worn out in .body and was tired and drowsy all the time. Her mother and myself became seriously alarmed as she was constantly getting worse. "Last July my danarh ter Sarah, a teacher In the Public chool e.t Kingsville, Out., came home to spud her vacation, and finding her sister iu su h. a distressing and dangerous c 'edition, said, I am taking Doatt's Kidney Pills and they are doing me much good, I have a box with me and will divide with Pcilly, which she did. By the time Polly had theished the heti box her improvement in health was so merked, that I procured morel from Mr. Fraleigh's drugstore. Her full restoration to health and ;spirits was rapid and continuous. She has now none of her former dangerous, painful and distressing kidney troubles. She eats and sleeps well, and for more than a month has enjoyed the most vigorous headth. She has not lost a day- at 13011001 slime she oceiamenced taking the pills, and has so much faith in them eincej they reetored her to I ull health that she wail -me to keep six boxes in the house all the tixie,$n cue they should be needed and not avai able. Her cure has been so wonderful she think they will cure any complaint. If the pills had cost $10.00 a box, I would not have begrudged the 'money. The restoration of my daughter to faH health and strong girlhood, from her former. serious sickness, etc., has made her mother, myself and daughter & happy family. '7 make this Orem statement with the full approbation of my wife and daughter, velum - Wily and without any urging or inducement wha.tever, to show the gratitude my daughter, wife and myself feel for the Wonderful our* wrought by the Don Kidney Pills. We have not the least doubt that her trying the pills Just at the time she did saved us a large doetor'a bill, 'as she was all but sick abed at the time.

He Draws Lessons of IteMarkable Power From a Strange) Bible Scene --- Tho Struggles of Life -It Is Prosperity Kills and Trouble Saves. WASHINGTON, Nov. 15. ----Out of this strange scoue of Bible times.Dr. Talmage, In his sermon today, draws remarkable lessons of good cheer and triumph. His eubjeot is "Wrestling With the Supernat- ural" and the text Genesis xxxii; 25, 20: "And .when be saw that he prevailed not against him he touched the. hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint its he wrestled with him. And he said, Let me go, for the day break- eth. An be said, I will not let thee g� except thou bless me." There is a cloud of dust from a traveling herd of cattle and sheep and goats and camels. They are the present that Jacob sends to gain the good will of his offended, brother. That night 1,Tacob halts by the; brook Jabbok. But there is no rest for -the weary man, no shinirig ladder to let , the angele down into his dream but a se- vere struasgle that lasts find morning with an unknown visitor. • They each try to throw the 'other. The unknoven visitor, to reveal his superior power, by!, a toueh wrenches Jacob's thigh bone from its sock- et, perh ps maiming him- for life. As on the rno niog sky tbe clusters of purple 'cloud b gin to ripen, Jacoloeees it is an wage' w th whelk' be has been contending • and -not one of his brother's coadjutors. "Let me go," cries the angel, lifting hilt - self up ino inereasing light; "the day breaketio" You see, in the first place, that God al-. lows good people sometimes to get into a terriblestruggle. Jacob was a good man, but here he is left alon in the midnight to wrestle with a trome dons influence by the brook Jabbok.

But iho old giant began to waver, and at last, in the midnight Mom, with 130110 but God to witness, by the- brook Jabbok, the giant fell, and the triumphant wrestler broke _the darkness with the cry, "Thanks be un- to God,. who givoth us the victory, through our Lord Jesus}, Choist,". • Humble Heroes. There is a widely's heart that first was desolated by bereavement and since by tho _anxieties and. trials that .came in the sup- port of a faintly. It is a sad thing to see a -man contendin-g for a livelihood under disadvantages but. to see a deli ca te wom- an, with held* 'little ones at her back, fighting tho giants of povorty-aml sorrow Is more affecting. It was a humble home, knew not that within those o displays of courage more - that of Hannibal crossing the pass of Therinepylas, or where"into the jaws of six hundred.'?- These he - hole world to cheer them was 130 one to applaud the • struggle in that humble home. She - '4ought for bread, for clothing, for. fires for shelter, with aching head and -weak . side and exhausted strength, through the long night by the brook Jabbok. Could it be that none would givaher help? Had God forgotten to be gracious? No, conteladiug soul.' The Midnight air is full of Wings coming to the rescue. She hears it now, In the sough of. the night windain-the rip- ple of Oho brook Jabbok, the promiSe made so long ago, ringing down the skY, "Thy fatherless 'children, I will preserve them -alive, and let thy widows trust in me!" Some one said to a very poor woman, "How is it that in such distress you keep cheerful?" She said: "I do lit by what I • call cross prayers.

Learn again that, while our wrestling with trouble might be triumphant, we must expect that it will leave its mark upon us. Jacob prevailed, but the angel touched him, and his thigh bore sprang from its; socket, and the good nen wont limping' on his way. We in ist carry through this world the mark of the com- bat. What plowed them premature wrin- Ides in your face? , What whitened your hair before it was 'time for frost? What silenced forever so much of the ilarity of yourhousehold? Ah, it is becaus the angel of, trouble hath touched you th t you go limping on your way. You ne d not be surprised that those who ha -e Tossed through the lake do not feel as gay.as once they did. Do not b. out of patience with those who C01110 not out of their despond- enoy. They limy triumph over their loss, and yet their gait shall tell you that they have been trouble touched. Are we Stoics that We can unmoved see our cradherillecl of the bright eyes and the swe t lips? Can We stand unmoved and see ou garden,s•of earthly delight uprooted? Wil Jesus, who wept himself, be angry with us if we pour our tears into the graves that open to swallow down what we loved best? Was Lazarus more dear to himi than our be- loved dead to us? • No. We have a right to weep. Our tears must mime. You shall not drive them back to 'geoid the heart. They fall into God's bottle. Afflicted 0/308 have died because they -could not weep. Thank God for tae sweet, the mysterious . relief that conies I to us in tears. -Under this gentle rain thellowers of hope put forth their bloom. God pity that dry, withered, Parched, all consuming grief that wrings its hands, and grinds its teeth, and bites its nitilO into the quick, but can- not weep. Wo may have found' the com- fort of the cross, and yet ever after show that in the dark night and by the brook IJabbok we were trouble touched. ' The Day Dawn.

I care not how bright our future hope is, it is a bitter thing to look upon this fair world and know that we shall I never again see its blossoming spring,' its autumnal fruits, its ,sparkling streams -and to say farewell to those with whom we played in childhood or counseled in manhood.

The beans are not ripe until they become yel- low, which occurs in January or February, but they are cut prematurely on account of the depredations of thieves and on ac- count of the great demand.

""The latest" in clocke and watches is .distinctly original. It comes from France. -The suggestion is that the decimal system should be adopted for clocks and watches, bidding goodby to our old friends 11 and 12 o'clock entirely, and to divide the face ot the clock into 10 instead of 12 sections. This ystem is now used by the geograph- ical bureau of the French army, and it is urged that it diminishes the labor of cal- culation by two-thirds mad lessens the chances of mathematical terror from fair to one. The following is an outline of th rules of the decimal syst in as applied t timepieces: "The day, from naidni ht to the mid -i night following, is to be divided into 100 equal parts, known as cos.". "The subdivisions according to- the decimal plan aro 'choices' or tenths, 'con- tices, ' or -hundredths, imillices,' or thou- sandths. "One of the main divisions, the ‘ces,' is equal to 14 minutes and 24 seconds, or al- most a quarter of an hour." - This, say the scientists, is the easiest possible system, butaho poor lay mind, we aro afraid, will not quite agree with such a conclusion, and 0 a. in. sounds as yet far more acceptable than 25 ces, its- decimal equivalent.—Westininster Gazette.

For, unless Sheridan bo excepted, there was no cavalry general on either side in the war who could. equal FOrrost in the pursuit of a defeated army. Lord Wolsoley has said in his sketch of Forrest that "Forrest's 00 mile pursuit of Sturgis after tfiCiir battle was a most re- markable achievement and well worth at- tention by military students.
