AN ENEMY TO DRINK.
One Woman who has Done a Great Deal
TO put Down this Evil.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Dec. II, 1900
(Special).-When the Independent Or
der of Good Templars of Minnesota
wanted a State Organizer, they chose
Mrs. Laura j. Smith, of 1917 West 33rd
Street, this city. The American Anti
Treat League also selected Mrs. Smith
as National Organizer. The reason is,
not far to seek. This gifted woman has
devoted her life to a battle against
Drink and Drinking Habits. Her influ-
ence for good in Minnesota is and has.
been very far reaching.
About two years ago, however, it
seemed as if this noble woman would
have to give up her philanthropic work..
Severe pains in her back and under her
shoulder blades, made life a burden
and work impossible. Physicians we're
consulted, and they prescribed for
Kidney Disease. Three months treat
ment, however, failed to give Mrs.
Smith any relief. Her husband was.
much exercised, and cast about him for
something that would restore his good
wife to health and strength. He heard
OF the cures effected by Dodd's Kidney
fllis. and advised her to try them.
which she did. She is now we'll wom-.
an and says:
Two weeks after I commenced taxi.
ing Dodd's Kidney Pills, felt much,
better, and at the end of seven weeks
was completely cured. I have had no.
recurrence of the trouble, but take a.
pm on and on, and find that it keeps me
in good health"
Dodd's Kidney Pills are for sale by
all dealers at so cents box.
Ihey are easily within the reach Of
all and no woman can afford to suffer,
when such a simple and sure Remedy.
Is at hand.

TRUCKING THE EGYPTIANS.

When the firm of Haywood, Stone &
Co. of London established an agency at
Cairo, Egypt, was placed in charge.
My business was the buying of rugs,
vases, arms cloths and whatever else
might find sale IN England. That was
what l may call my general and legit-
innate business. AS side line | was
to pick up bargains in mummies. Up
to the founding Of that agency in Cairo
only a few museums in Europe or
America had been able to secure speci-
mems. To get hold of mummy with
a history required couple of years
diplomatic correspondence between
governments, and the cost would run
I'D as high as $4,000. Under the laws
of Egypt il was death to disturb the
dead without official permission, and
death to any foreigner discovered try

inspection. | was not told in so many
words that all this watchfulness was
to prevent me from dealing in mum

My first step was to bride every official
who could obstruct me, and | had to
move slowly In the matter and make
no mistakes Then an agent must be
found to look up and ship me the
specimens from points in the interior
