IL remained for Maria Louise Pool to
express, to bring even into literature,
what we have so long recognized in our
friends, the dogs, their Intelligence, af
fection, fidelity, pathos and humor. The
dog is an intimate element in most Of
our lives. a party to nearly every house
hold. and the certainty with which each
of these dumb brutes has bound himself
to our affections is the certainty of the
pleasure to be found in the book which
Stone kimball have published for
Miss Pool. II is called Boss, and Other
Dogs Boss is the hero of the first Of

Maie nearly stood between him and en-
teTing, but as matters very prettily turned
out they both went in together. The
meeting of Laddie, stray collie, with
the farm dogs and what happened is an
canine chronicling. Miss Pool shows an
extensive acquaintance with her dog
friends and a deep sympathy inevitably
bred OF this knowledge. The book more
readily appeals to women, for it deals
almost exclusively with the sentimental
side of dog life, but the author probably
intends to write another book with the
sagacity of the hunter and the precocity
OF the dog humorist for her topic.

St. Vitus

what Cured Little Stanley Michel Of GhOrea.
From ne Repu5ttoon-yoarnal, osdens6uro. N p

A letter was lately received at the Office Of
the Repabhcan-,I0Urnal from Hammond to
the effect that the cure Of an extraordinary
severe case Of st. Vitus' dance had been
effected on Che person Of little Stanley Nichol,
the eight-year-old son Of Mrs. Charles Nichol
Of that village.
reporter was accordingly dispatched I'm
that direction who, after some inquiry found
hrs Nichols residence about mile outside
tie village. Mrs. Nichol said
" A little over year ago my boy Stanley
Nichol, who is now only eight years old
alarmed me one day by being taken with a
strange gurgling in his throat. After the
FIRST the attacks became quite frequent.
Stanley did not complain Of any pain. but
said that be could not help making the noise.
At that time there was a New York doctor
stopping in the village who was q specialist
on throat and nasal diseases. / took my son
TO him and after a careful examination he
so'd that there was nothing the matter with
the boys throat. The gurgling i'm his opinion
was caused by nervous contraction Of the
muscles Of the throat. HI asked who our
family physician was and said that he would
consult with him before he prescribed.
stanley rapidly grew worse. He was
always a sickly boy. One day I noticed
That he was jerking his arm up in a very
peculiar manner few days later he
seemed to lose control of his legs. first one
and then the other would be pulled up and
then siraightened out again. He was per-

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send His Dis
coVery Free.
Claims to Be a BenefaotOr to Weakened
Mankind

There is always moro or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so Overhows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world, in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered.
1t is upon this principal that a resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich. desires to send free to
mankind prescription which will cure them
Of any form of norvOns debility relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigOr. AS il
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might be
the final result, ought 10 be deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them TO
health strength and yigor, without which
they continue TO live an existence Of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result Of many years research as TO what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring 10 men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such remedy at once. A request to II. G.
Olds, Box l7l2, Kalamazoo, Mich, stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
ont of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use Of the medicine by giving ita trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as TO where Information came from.
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send TO Mr.. Olds so that he may know
how you came to write him. l2-2S7st

venezuelan Commissions Report.

Washington March 1.-The report Of
the commission appointed by the presi-
dent to determine the true divisional
line between Venezuela and British
Guiana, though a voluminous docu-
ment, lacks the interest which might
have attached to it, owing to the fact
that the commission did not make a
report on the boundary question, leav-
ing that TO be determined by the arbi
tration decided upon between the two
governments most interested, Great
Britain and Venezuela Especial ref
erence is made to the evident desire on
the part OF the two governments di-
rectly concerned to aid the commission

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours a
sediment or settling indicates a diseased con-
diton of the kidneys, When urine stains
linen It is positive evidence Of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate OF
pain in the back, is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out Of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so often
expressed that DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney remedy, fulflls every wish
in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part Of the urinary pas
sages. It corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects fol-
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night to urinate. The mild and the ex-
traordinary effect of swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its wonder
ful cures of the most distressing cases. II
you need medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists price fifty cents and
