A GORGEOUS PALANoUIN.
Built for . West African Chief to Rid

Built for West African Chief to Ride
In.
A Birmingham firm has just COM
pleted a palanquin which a firm trad
ing in central Africa intends as a pres
ent for native chief. The body of the
vehicle consists of a spring mattress
supported on a frame, which is carried
by pair of Lakewood shafts sixteen
feet long. The mattress is jointed, and
there is a well in the center of the We
hicle, so that the occupant of the pal
anquin may adopt a sitting, reclining
or recumbent attitude, the couch
being cushioned with thick horsehair
cushions, upholstered in silk tabouret.
The canopy, consisting of fine blue
cloth curtains with a gold and silk
border and festoons of terra Gotta
silk, has pyramidal roof, surmount-
ed by a crown, while the brasswork
of the frame has finals designed from
the barbed spearheads in use in the
chiefs district. The structure would
be handsome in its way but for the
fact that the woodwork of the body has
painted upon it, in large letters on
either side, the name and title of the
chief-namely. Coffee Adam-Iron
Bar Duke" This feature, says the
Westminster Gazette, for which the
manufacturer Is not responsible, is ex-
pected to particularly please the dusky
potentate, but 1t is fatal to the artis-
tic pretensions of the design.

In Battle Creek.
(From the Battle Creek Journal)
Our representative called the other
day at 102 N. Division street, where
lives Mrs. Emery o. CoiustocK. Mrs.
Comstock is Battle Creek citizen and
it is easy for any reader of this to prove
its correctness Mrs. Comstock has
suffered with kidney complications for
as much as Is years. The physicians
that she has consulted at different
times have called her disorder inAam-
nation of the bladder, congestion of
the bladder, and other things, all
agreeing, however, that the seat of the
trouble was the bladder and kidneys.
When she had bad spells the pain was
most excruciating, the dreadful pain in
her back and elsewhere caused night
sweats TO such an extent that the
clothes would have to be dried. This
was an awful way to live, ut times suf-
fering the greatest agony. The doctors
and any other means she used only
afforded slight temporary relief. FL
nally she hears of Doan's Kidney Pills
and her husband got box in hopes
they may help her. She commences
their use and from the first dose expe-
riences great relief. She continued to
take them and they seem to have estab-
lished permanent benefit. Mrs. Com
stock regards her case as chronic and
incurable, but says that she is feeling
better now than she has for long time
and that Doan's Kidney Pills have done
more for her than any other treatment
that she has ever used, and she adds,
that the world should know what a
good and valuable medicine can be
found In Doan's Kidney Pills.

To many people Spring and its duties
mean an aching head, tired limbs, and
throbbing nerves. Just as the milder
weather comes, the strength begins to
wane, and "that tired feeling" Is the
complaint OF all.
The reason for this condition Is
found in the deficient quality of the
blood. During the winter, owing to
various causes, the blood becomes
loaded with impurities and loses its
richness and vitality. Consequently,
as soon as the bracing effect of cold
air is lost, there is langour and lack of
energy. The cure will he found in
purifying and enriching the blood.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the greatest
and best spring medicine, because it is
the greatest and best blood purifier.
