Porton, Carleton Co.; NSB,,, June 16 (Special). --"I find Dodd's Kid- ney Pills the best kidney medicine I have ever used. They have been of untold benefit to me," The speaker is Mrs. John S. Dick- inson, of this place. She is enthu- siastic in her . praises of the great *Canadian kidney 'remedy, and not without reason. "I suffered from kidney trouble that started in a cold," she contin- ues. "And for four years I . was never free`of it. I was treated by a doctor, but he did not seem to be able to do me much good. • "I had rheumatism and neural- gia, and my joints were stiff my muscles were cramped, and I was always tired and nervous. 'I per- spired .freely with the slightest ex- ertion. I was depressed and low spirited, my limbs swelled, and I had a, dragging sensation across the loins. "Nine boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills made a 'new woman of me." Are not Mrs. Dickinson's symp- toms those of any run-down worn- out woman? They are also the symptoms of kidney disease. Dodd's Kidney Pills give new life to run-down women by curing their kidneys. Four to the Inch.

She and, her mother: left Jeddah together to go to Mecca, but when theyhad gone only ten miles the mother died and the 'plaintiff herself fell ill. Giving up the ides, of going. to Mecca, she returned to. Bomlleee where she lived for two years with Iter brother, . without ,hearing from her husband at all: Them:, hearing- cf.her h'ushand'e death; Mahe came to', Madras' and filed the present suit. The lady was present in court, but in 'accordance -with the Mebane me.clan custom she was borne in on a closed palanquin and was not to be seen by any male eye. The defendant urged that she was a mere impostor, that Mandi never had a wife, and that the whole story• was.. a. concoction from beginning to end. Moreover, voun- sd for ..-he defence averred that he knew who was in the palanquin; and could produce witnesses to prove who she was. Accordingly, two women..reeiding in the town looked into the palan- quin as it stood in the court room, and at once recognized -the occu- pant as a lady well known. in the town. The marriage certificate put in by the plaintiff was closely ex- amined by the judge (Mr. Justice Wallis) and declared to be an utter forgery, and the suit was dismissed. How such an elaborate scheme came to be built up remains and probably will remain, a mystery. The palanquin as used in India is an imposing affair—a kind of wood- en box about eight feet long, four feet wide and four feet high, with wooden shutters. It is borne on the shoulders of four men by means of projecting poles. CHILDHOOD COLIC COMPLETELY CURED Extraordinary Suit Which Has Just Concluded in India. There has just concluded in the high court at Madras, India, what the judge who' tried it describes as the most extraordinary suit ever heard by an Indian court of law. The claimant was alady who claimed'to be the widow of a rich Turkish merchant -who died in Ma- dras about seven years ago, by name Haji Mandi•.Baghdadi. nis,hdi left a will bestowing the whole of his great fortune to charity, and the estate was taken over by the Turk- ish Consul, with the intention. of carrying out the wishes of. the de- ceased.' Before the prolonged legal pro- ceedings necessary for doing so could .be completed, however, the consul's possession was disturbed by the arrival of a man from Bag- dad who claimed to be the brother and heir of Mandi, and in order to avoid further litigation the Consul made a compromise by which the newcomer received two-thirds of the estate, the rest to go in charity as directed by the will. All that took place three years ago. Now, however, there comes on the scene this mysterious lady. Her story in court was that she had left her husband in order to go .on a.

TIIA.T BAKE BISCUITS. Dalmatian Species That under-, stands Cookery. The extraordinary habits of the harvester ant have long been known to naturalists. Certain spe- cies not only harvest and store in *granaries the seeds upon whish they feed, but actually. plant and cultivate an .annual crop of their focldeeeds. Still lucre -reriiark'able stories are' told of an ant that is common, in Dalmatia, the Messer herbaria. According to Dr. Neger, of the Dresden Forestry School, this ant not only cuts leaves and gathers seeds, but actually makes bread or biscuit! The seeds are first sprout- ed, then carried into the sun and dried, then taken back to the un- derground chambers, where they are chewed into a. dough. The dough is then finally made into tiny cakes, which are baked in the sun, then carefully stored for future use. From these observations it would appear that the art of cookery is not confined to the human race. All cooking is done by the sun, whether in the ripening of fruit or in the baking of bread in a stove. The heat obtained from fuel is simply stored up sunlight set free. The Arab and the native Mexican speak of ripe fruit as fruit which has been cooked in. the sun, The ant has somehow learned the art of sun cookery; the saliva with which it moistens the grain proba- bly taking the place of yeast and sweetening through changes set up by its influence upon starch. Any Headache Cured, Tired Systems Re -Toned VACCINE TO ROUT TYPHOID? Chicago Health Commissioner Pre- dicts Its Eradication. Eradication of typhoid fever in the near future through anti- typhoid vaccination, is the predic- tion of Health Commissioner Young, of Chicago. After several years of experi- ments by the governments of the United States, Great Britain, France, and Germany, more than 100,000 immunizations from "the great American curse" were re- ported. These conclusions, Dr. Young ':s'tlit is. are accepted by practically all authorities -- 1 Anti -typhoid vaccination con- fers a notable immunity against ty- phoid infection. 2. It reduces by 75 per cent. the ease incidence of typhoid in groups of individuals submitted to immun- ization. 3. It reduces the fatality rate of typhoid about 50 per cent. 4. The disease runs a milder course among the previously im- munized who. contract it than it don among those not so treated. The health commissioner recom- mends all Chicagoans to obtain anti typhoid vaccination before leaving for vacations, as this class furnishes a large part of the city's autumnal typhoid. • BUNIONS NO JOKE ft Ward's Liniment Cures Cofds, ESA Shoes Tied to Knees. As coverings for the human foot shoes have been worn from the earliest times. The. shoes of the Jews were made of wood, rush, linen or leather. The Romans were the first to set the example of cost- ly shoes, and introduced various decorative adornments of ivory and precious stones. In the Middle Ages fashion played some fantastic tricks with shoes, and in England, about the middle of the fifteenth century, shoes with such long points were worn that they had to be tied to the knees for convenience in walking, the dandies using silver chains for the purpose. It was about 1,633 when shoes of the pre• sent form were introduced, and in 1668 the buckle came into use as an ornament. English Ate With Fingers. Forks revere unknown in England until about 300 years ago. A knife was used to cut up food, but the food was conveyed by the fingers to the mouth. The first evidence of a use of the fork in. the 20th century fashion was by a, :noble lady of By- zantium,,..who, in the 11th century, had married a .doge of Venice and ate in that city after her own cus- tom, cutting her meat very finely ss and conveying it to her Mouth With a two-pronged fork.

"tutti-men" par- ading the town and exacting kisses from women and "headpence" from men was observed recently at Hun- gerford, Berkshire, England. It dates from John o' Gaunt, about 1370. All the women inmates of the workhouse insisted on being kissed. At the laundry the girls were par - acted and each tutti-man selected two to receive • his kiss. The men visited other places in the town and found the women and girls for the most part quite willing to share in the celebration. The One -Term Idea.
