(To be Continued.) - • A STORY FROM LIFE, Showing How Suffering Can be 1 Overcome. A tlilt Operator who Suffered From Kidney - Trouble Spent Many Dollars in Useless Experiments to Restore His Health— Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Azted Prompt- ly and Effectively. Good health is the chief requisite to hap sli pin es, low spirits, moroseness and irrit- abil ty can in mom eases be traced to of health, and in not a few instances are direct symPtoms of kidney trouble. These, added to the severe pains in the back, which ac- company the disease, make the life of the sufferer one of abject misery. One each sufferer was Mr. Darius Dean, of Jordan, Oatario. Mr. Dean, in an interview with a reporter recently, gave his experience ,as follows :—"i am a saw and grist mill oper- ator and naturally a strong man; but the life f a miller is a hard one, with long hou s of labor and frequent exposure. Some yeara ago, as the rends of this exposure, I was afflicted with kidney trouble, and al- tho4h I spent much money in varioui ram - ed -ie e I did not find a cure until I was per- suaded to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In the autumn of 1896 the trouble began to as- sume an agravated form. I suffered from most severe pains in the back, and a feeling of chowsiness, and yet so severe was the pain that many a night I scarcely closed my eyes, My appetite was poor, I suffered trona headaches, lost flesh, was miserable and wholly unfit for work. It was while in this condition that I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and procured three boxee. Before I had finished the third box I felt much better ; and I then procured a half dozen boxes more. I used all these,but befo e they were all gone I felt that my heal h was fully restored. In the interval sinci then I have had just one slight return of t e trouble, and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills soon droye this out, and my health since has een the very best. I have gained much in Weight, eat and _sleep well, and consider myself as healthy a person as there is in the couney ; and the credit for this I feel is en- tirelly due to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." Dr, Williams' Pink- Pills increase the sup- ply and the richness of the blood, and in this way cure physical and functional weak- nesses. Most other medicines simply act upori the symptoms of the dimase, hence whee the medicine is discontinued the pati- ent ils poen as wretched as ever. Dr. Wil - 'lame' Pink Pills go directly to the root of the trouble and cure to stay cured. Hence it is onwise to waste money in experiments with other medicine. These pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, by addreseing the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. - . A Story of Spurgeon. There is a revival in London of stories of the late Rev. Jharles H. Spurgeon, the eminent Baptiat divine. That his sense of humor was well developed is shown by the following anecdotes : "There was Mr. B.," said Mr. Spurgeon, "he was a big man in his way, and seemed very anxious to make me his friend. He was very hospitable and generous. I was, friendly and agreeable with him. Then he beg4 to call me Charles.' I looked at him. , I did not mind it much, but had he been imy father or brother he could scarcely have done more. I thought I would let him See how it looked, so I called him 'Joint.' He did not see my purpose'and so went on calling me Charley.' Then called him 'Jack. That cured him, and he dropped it. But I could see he had little of the sense of propriety." Do Not Forget It. It it a fact that Nerviline cannot be sur- passed by any combination for the relief of pain. The reason is a good one. Nerviline contains the best, most powerful, and the latest 'discovered remedies. It is a magic pain Ore. Rheumatism, stiff neck, cramps, neuralgia, colio, in fact all pain, internal, ex- ternal, and local, are subdued in a few minutes. Go se once to any drug 'store and get a trial bottle. It will only cost you 10 cents, and you oan at a smell wet teat the great pain cure, Poison's Nersiline. Large bottleonly 25 cents. —At a sale held by Neil Caney, near Port reoentlye pure bred cowa sold, saya the Times, at PO, $67, $76, two going aii high as $80 each, and me at $120.

I grew an acre of corn, an acre of sorghum and two acres of millet, side by side last season. None of the crops were grown on manured land, and all were grown under the same conditions. The sorghum came out away ahead. I am satisfied it gave at least 25 tons ti the sere, and it was fully 50 per cent. above the corn in quantity produced. I eiloed some of the sorghum and it served admirably for this purpoess. I believe it is even 'settee than corn for this purpose. It is snider handled and the stook is not so coarse. You require, _ though, to have the land well cleaned before, - planting sorghum. It is a slow starter. Quite a number of people, by the way, am- using shrudclere for filling their silos.
