The Well Known Retired Drummer
Expresses His Opinion on an
Important Question:.
Forty years on the road selling mar
BILE and granite has brought MIR. Z. NJ.
johnson, of No. 1876 Third ST., in con-
tact with host of people living in all
the towns and cities between Cleveland
and Cincinnati. Now it is not pro-
pounding an obtruse or difficult math-
ematical problem to ask our readers,
when they see side by side in the news
pa pers two or three statements made
about the merits Of certain prepara-
tions, which statement carries the most
conviction, the one made by well
known resident or those made by utter
strangers from far away places? There
is only one answer to this. Read this
and see. Mr.. johnson says:-"I have
had attacks of kidney complaint for
the last 10 or IL years When snffer-
ing from the last was induced to take
Doan's Kidney Pills and got box at
w. Ii. Styer's drug store on Front st.
There is not anything like them. They
are a grand remedy. l can cheerfuIly
recommend them and any statement
to that effect cannot be made too
strong after suffering for years as |
have with pains across the loins; my
back at times was so lame | could not
get up or down; and greatly troubled
with a very annoying and distressing
urinary weakness that arose from ir-
ritated kidneys. | repeat, l cannot
express my estimation about the rene
ty which gave me relief. l can be
found at home or about town at any
time to substantiate my opinion Of

4 SOLDIERS GRAVE.

NJ There's grave just
rpi.r.l.,,i ' plain gray stone
rhat's insoribcl with name to fame unknown.
But green is the grass
And fresh arc the flowers
Which garnish this grave
That loves hand cmhowers.
AMI the wind sirhs DER IL on summer ewes
sts plaintivc lament through the shrubs and
leaves,
And with the refrain comes a softer sigh
From Tn heart Of a love that cannot die
For true love survives
The lapse of the years,
Though Of hope berett,
Though its fruit he tears.
And on summer days by this grave 50 green
IN solnbpr array may a form be seen,
OR, when DER IL is cast shroud of snow,
There undying lovo by this grave moans low.
What does she wish for,
For what does she pray
In tho garden Of death
Both winter and Mayi
In sal communinRs her thoughts backward ny
To tho duy he babe her a last goodby,
TO that sadder day when he, fighting, fell
For the cause he loved and she loved so well
She Spartan bride,
Would not say him nay,
Though it broke her heart
When he went away.
Others there be in that garden OF death
Who the loved ones recall with bated breath,
Who strew bright flowers DER their graves
with a sigh
For love that lived, for the love that could die.
But she robed in black,
With the pale, sad face,
Defed the long years
Hor love to erase.
Not welded to death, though her love lies low
And her heart feels cold in the Maytime glow,
But welded to love which lives in the past,
Eustained by hope that they'll meet at last
She and her lover,
He conqueror where
Deeth cannot enter
Nor partings be there.

CATCH A MONSTER TuRTLg,
PIshsrmen at Foot OF Randolph Street,
Chicago, Made N Novel Haul.

Fishermen at Foot Of Randolph street,
Chicago. Made n Novel Haul.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2s,-The green turtle
fishing industry was fairly started at the
Randolph street pier to-day, when three
hardy fishermen of the lake front cap
tured one of the largest turtles ever seen
In Chicago. Incidentally, this capture
violates tradition and the dlctum of
every natural history,
Never before was a green turtle cap
tured in northern waters or In any OF the
| great lakes and the only recorded in
stances where these turtles were found
In fresh water was In a few cases along
the lower Mississippi. Yet the turtle-a
| giant, Weighing $40 pounds--was caught
in ice-cold fresh water fully 5000 miles
| by the lake route from It's home and was
| alive and p%ugnacious when brought to
ehore.
Frank and John Martin and Charles
| Crager. who have 4 houseboat of the
pier and run n number Of nets out In
deeper water, went out at noon to gather
in their morning catch OF perch, The
first net proved SO heavy that the men
thought a dead body-probably that OF
| the aeronaut who was drowned In the
| vicinity a few days ago--had become
tangled in the mesi1es. As the net near
| ed the surface, It could be eeen dlfnly
| ieaving and surging, as II some huge
creature was imprisoned within, Be-
1fevtng that a sturgeon had wandered
into the trap the men pulled hard, and a
great nlppcr shot out OF the water and
swept around like q fan.
Although utterly %astoundcd. the men
did not let 30 OF their prize. Thinking
| that a sea lion had become their prisoner,
they sent one Of their number after wea-
pons, and then, armed for the encounter,
gave another pull. The vicious head OF
n huge turtle appeared above the surface
and a lively battle followed. a blow
from n Ratchet stunned the creature and
three Eaffs were sunk into It's shell. by
| the hardest kind of work, II was towed
ashore.
~ never heard OF such a thing before"
said one Of the fishermen, "The color,
the slze. the shape OF the fippers and the
kite form Of the shell all Identify 1t as n
| green sea turtle-a tropical creature. II

Il swan NIL the way from the gulf OF
Mexico, The former Idea seems impos-
slble. as II surely would hayo been killed
by ice long since, 81 that Il must have
beaten all turtle records In the way Of
travel, First time I ever heard Of a salt
water turtle living IN the great lakes,
into the bargain
Tho turtle IL about Ave feet over the
shell, has nlppoB a. large as turkey
