Like Everybody Else Who Has Given Dodd's 'Kidney ,Pills a Fair Trial. Sr. ELZEAR, Que.,Juty 1—(Special)—Jean Nitres, of thia place, has a very high opin- ion of Dodd's Kidney Pills. He has tested their merits and knows whereof he speaks. Wherever you go, throughout the broad %minion you will have a hard teak to -find t. anyone who, having given Dodd's Kidney Pills an honest chance to ours them, are still diesatisfied. jean Points says "1 think Dodd's Kidney Pills are good. They cared me of kidney ditea.se' with which I suffered, and which at nightforced me to rise every hour. To -day I am well, I sleep without having to get up in the night. You can believe me, I am glad to have regained my health. ". Thanks a thousand times to Dodd's Kidney Pills r • The Salt of the Earth. The Standard Oil money and brain e con; trot practically all the salt production of this country. The Notional Salt Company ie the oorporeae nome under which ib oper- ates. And, not content with a monopoly of the home market by the fostering aid of a tariff duty, it has formed a combination with foreign companies to control the entire salt trade of the world. There is nothingthat comes so near to being a universalI necessity as salt. In one form or another it is used by nearly every humeri being and all clorneetie aninsahe It is the basis of severed important industries. To control the salb trade of the world there. fore, is, an ambition worthy of the brains and the insatiate greed for heaped-up mil- lions which have created and maintained' the 01I Trust and other of the colossal com- binations that have developed co repidly within the last few years. Just what the people and the govern- ments of the different countries will do about this cornering of "the salt of the earth" wilI depend probably upon the direction with which the International- -Trust shall - use its power, and upon the progress made in discovering and applying remedies _egainst the monopolizing cd universal neces- • saries. • To Cure a Cold in One Day.

Max Muller's dogs were quite as notorious apart of Oxford as himself, says the London Telegraph. He had two dachshunds, one black and tan, called Waldmann ; another red, called Manner', own brother to Goan, Matthew Arnold's dog, for Whom the poet wrote- a spleddid epitaph. They were generally well behaved, but they were not above making incursions tato the garden of Professor Muller's neighbor- hood, and even the aristocratic Maimed was sometimes seen with his head in an odoriferous garbage barrel. However, their master thought he might •train Waldmann and Maunerl so they could !distinguish colors. He had one basket for his black and tan dachshund- Waldmann and another for his red dachshund Manner'. The black dog looked best, Professor Muller thought, on a red pillow, and the red dog on a blue one. In these two baskets they e Bleat for years. When their master said "h."Blue bed," Matinerl would go into his, when he said "Red . bed," Wauldma,nn would jump into his. They never mistook one for the other. One day Mrs. Muller was sitting in the drawing -room when Wauldmann came in evidently Much disturbed. She asked him if he wanted to go out to have dinner, to have waterNo, it was none of these. But he kept running to the door, then waiting and looking back. At 'Lust idea Muller got up and followed him, and he led her to the dining -room. There in the red bed lay a new dachshund keit brought from Germany, and Manner' was in his own blue bed. "Welder" stood between, looking first at one, then at the other, evidently saying, "And where, I ask, am I?" The new dog was driven out, and then Wald -mann got in, quite content. Diseases of Children. Measles, Scarlet Fever, and the many exhausting fIlaeasee of childhood, frequently leave the little gut- terers in a weakened and debilitated condition ot health, from whteh it ia difficult to reacue them ex- cept by the regular use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. This preparation ia admirably suited ..to the require - mote of children, and has suoh an invigorating and restorative influence on the system as to make weak, puny alaildren healthy, plump and active. It Ended With " Ow." A certain carelessness about proper names is a common quality with aristocracy and -royalty, and this is said to be borne out by & story goiug the rounds about His Majesty the King. Some weeke agor he pointed out a picture to ono of the royal household, and said ; "1 have promieed to send that pieture to Mos- cow ; see that it goea." "To MOReOW, Your Majesty ?" said the gentleman addressed. • Yes, Moscow," aa -id the King. "There's an exhibition or something of that sorb on there just now." "Moacow, Your Majesty," said the offi- cial again " There's no exhabition nt Moscow. Your Majesty perhaps means Glasgow." " Ah, Glasgow, is it ?" said Edward VII., reflectively. " I dare say it is.

These men, whoae skins are sallow from the stains of gold, take up ingots first of the virgin metal, pass them between steal rollers, whence they corns forth like pie cruet, and Pass them then through closer and. closer rollers, until they are bat little thicker than paper. The sheets of gold are next placei.. between pieces of leather that are called - goldbeatere elcine, and men beat them through the skins with inallete until they are reduced to an unimaginable tenuity. It has often been Proven that a skilled gold beater can turn out gold leaves so thin that it would take 282,000 of them to make the thickness of an inch ; so thin that, if formed in a bee*, 1,500 of them would only oecup the apace of a single leaf of paper. —• You Can Make This Test, You oan fiad out if the kidneys are cloned, de- ranged and diseased.- Have you badkaohe or asweek, lame back?

For one thing, it is ascertained that the ear continues to grow in the latter decades of life ; in fact it appears never to atop growing until death. If one will take the trouble to look around in any assem- blage of people, as at churoh, he will dis- cover that the old folks have -ears consider- ably larger than those of the middle aged. A woman who has small shell-like ears at 20 years of age will be very apt to possess medium sized coned at 40 years and large ears at 60. While ears should go on growing all one's life, any more than noses, is a mystery. There are a good many other .points, about theta that are instructive, their shapes being markedly persistent through heredity: An ear will be handed down, so to speak, from father to eon for generation after generation with comparatively little modification. Some authorities on criminology assert that criminals are veiry apt to peseta a peculiar kind of ear, which is reeognizeble by an ex- pert in sueli matters. • • DR.

As a matter of fact, the word appears first in old English as "news" or "nevus," the plural of new. It is not a native English idiom, but a . . :translation of the French "nouvelles"— 'news. •Another supposition is that news represents the • partitive genitive of the Anglo-Saxon "hwact niwes," but this is not borneout by old English examples. 3' 11 3' 11 • 11 • •_.

That's why tlio, touched elbows with tlieepeople at Uri, resorts. When the seasea Was over, they knew the best place to strike. They, knew how to get into Northfield and hod". to get out of it. "Northfield had about 2,000 people. It was a genet town.. They didn't dash into it, as some people think. Tleat isn't the way raids on banks were made in those days. Bob Younger, Sesse James and Charley Pitts rode into the town first, very leisurely. They had ao intentiou of creating any suspicionby doing anothieg else. It was a common occurrence f men to ride into torn as they did. Th tied their horses to a rack near the -hank. They stood on the coney, as countrYrilp do in a small town, and talked polities as you and I would. "At tile same time they were taking ,note of the people. They tarried ou the corner at the hour ,of noon and after, fci't tb.at was the time When people In a toiva like Northfield were at dinner. They at dinner in such towas at noon, There were fewer people astir then than at any other hour. "While they were talking the other members of the gang, having undoubted- ly had some sort of signal, came whoop- ing and shouting down the main street These were Jim and Cole Younger, BIB Chadwell and Olen Miller. Every One of them had been. with Quantrell, and as they rode they uttered- the rebel yell. It was new in Minnesota. Naturally, it startled the few People on the street. - "As soon as Bob Younger and his two friends saw that the people on the street were confused they added to the confu- sion by running about, shouting, 'Get -off tho street!' You know how easy it le for one man to control -a panic stricken crowd. He can either make it run like scared animals or he can, if he is cool, round it up to a standstill. "The cry -of 'Get off the street!' was a new one in that quiet town. That It was uttered by strangers made no difference. People in a panic don't reason. If they did, there would be no fatalities. Bob. Younger knew this. He and Cole and Jim planned the whote thing in advance. Get the people. scared and they will run to their houses. • "The moment Bob Younger saw the people on the run. he and Pitts and James rushed into the bank. They had, how- ever, flushed the game. The scare out- side had penetrated.the bank. The eash- ler, Haywood, had time to fathom." the situation. He slammed the inner door of the vault shut and locked it. Ile must hays) been an unusually quick man. men- tally as well as physically. "His act disconcerted even such men as Bob Younger and Jesse James. The lat- ter lost his head. He drew a.knIfe across Haywood's throat to scare him and make him open the safe. Haywood didn't scare. There are few men. who will not quail at the touch of cold steel. Jesse James cursed. and raved. Two clerks in the bank escaped andwereshot at. Bob Younger knew this was a mistake and left the bank. Jesse James followed, but turned, fired and killed Haywood. It was bad business. It only infuriated the town. "There was no necessity for ilamts' Shooting after he knew the safe door was closed. Besides, the uproar at the bank gave the town time to think, and the citi- zens went after the bandits, who rode out of town oti a gallop. Bill Chadwell and Clell Miller were killed -on the way out. In this case the warnina to the people to get off the street was given too 80011; If Haywood had not had the warning, he probably would have given in.

His love for Frankwas always like that a woman has for:her child. He escaped and took Frank with him on the pommel of his saddle. In this woy they rode by night and secreted themselves by day.
