No Demand for Premiums

The American Tract Society once Of
fered $50 for the best tract on "The I'm.
propriety Of Dancing" There was a
socialist around in the person of Horace
Greeley to take advantage of this oppor-
tunity. He copied their announcement
in the New York Tribune and said:
"We would suggest premiums to be
offered as follows:
Twenty dollars for the best tract on
the rightfulness and consistency of a
Christian spending 5000 or $4,000 a
year on the appetites and enioyments of
himself and family, when there are a
thousand families withih less than a mile
OF him who are compelled to live on less
than $500 year.
Ten dollars for the best tract on the
righttulness and Christianity of a Chris
tian building house for the exclusive
residence Of himself and family at a cost
OF $4,000 to SIoJ, 900 within sight of a
hundred families living in novels worth
less than 500.
Five dollars for the best tract on the
Christianity Of building churches which
cost 500, 900 each in which poor sinners
can only worship on sufferance and in
the most ont-of-the-way corners.
THAT there may be no pecuniary him
drance we will pay the premiums if the
American Tract Society will publish the
tracts"

MIOHlGRN SENSATION
Son of James A. Ellis, Saginaw, Cured
of Bright's Disease by Dodd's
Kidney Pills.
Best Physician I'm City Gave the Lad
Up-Said Plainly That He Couldn't
Be Cured-But He Is Cured and
Dodd's Kidney pills Cured Him.

SAGINAW, Mich, Feb. 9.-One of the
most sensational cases ever reported in
this city is that of the nineteen year-old
son of Mr.. James A. Ellis, Saginaw, East
Side. The case reflects the greatest credit
on Dodds Kidney Pills. now in universal
use all over the world. In March, 1898,
Mr.. Ellis son was taken sick. One of the
best physicians in the city was consulted.
He pronounced the case Bright's Disease,
which has always been considered incur
able He attended the young man for
several months. but finally gave him up.
1t was no use Bright's disease couldn't
be cured.
Another eminent physician was con-
suited. He said that he thought he might
cure him. If he couldn't he would say
SO. After a few months trial he also
acknowledged that the case was beyond
his skill The lad was confined to his bed
long before this, and death was now look
ed for at any moment. The doctor said
1t was useless to give him medicines, as
he could not live.
Mr. Ellis about this time saw Dodd's
Kidney Pills advertised. He determined
to put them to the test and see If his
son was really beyond human aid. He
procured q box. It was thought that the
boy showed an Improvement and another
box was bought. With delight 1t was
seen that there was no doubt about 1t.
The pills were curing him. Another box
was taken and the Improvement was ap
parent to all. To cut a long story short.
Dodd's Pills made a well man of him.
Mr. Ellis, senior, himself writes:
''I will state that my son is now at work
and Is taking his twenty-f1fth box. He
says he is well and thinks it useless to
continue taking them, but insisted on
his taking the pills. A great many peo-
pie have come to me to know what we
used to cure my boy, and I have told
them Dodd's Kidney Pills. I cannot saS
enough for them want all sufferers to
know of his wonderful cure.

Big Horse Sale at South ST. Paul In
Spite of Delayed Trains.
The auction sale of horses, held at South
ST. Paul yesterday afternoon by Thuet
Bros, was largely attended in spite of
the unfavorable conditions. One entire
train of heavy horses was delayed by
the storm and did not arrive in time for
the sale This fact was a great disap-
pointment to Thuet Bros, as 1t left them
with only one train of light animals and
colts to show to the large number of
local and outside buyers who were on the
ground. The horses offered were very
fair quality for young stuff and buyers
purchased freely and paid good prices.
1t is expected that the delayed horses,
which are all heavy and well-bred ami
mails, will arrive the first of the week
and will be placed on sale some time dur
ing the week, the exact date to be an
nounced later.

BISHOP McCABE.
The Famous minister's Experience
With Coffee.

The well known bishop said to one of
his friends, soome years ago, IT was
a great sufferer from severe headaches,
and at times after travelling many miles
to dedicate a church or perform some
other important duty, found myself con-
fined to a bed when the time came, and
was unable to carry out my work. I
finally discovered that when I left off
coffee for a few days the headaches dis
appeared and by further experiment dis
covered that the coffee was undoubtedly
the cause of the difficulty, which finally
entirely disappeared when left off coffee
altogether"
The person to whom this remark was
made is Mrs. Amy K. Glass, wife of a
Methodist minister at Rolfe, 10. She
says: My own experience with coffee
was very convincing. I was grown up
before 1 ever drank coffee, but was ad-
vised by friend (who meant 1t kindly
to use weak tea and coffee, because a
warm drink aided digestion. I soon there
after commenced to have nervous and
sick headaches; could not believe 1t was
the coffee.
My husband, who had suffered from
dyspepsia while a young man in college,
and found relief by leaving off coffee,
often told me he was satisfied my head
aches were caused by coffee, so I gave
up the coffee and took up Postum Cereal
Food Coffee. The change taught me in
a most convincing manner that coffee
was the cause of the headaches, but now
I have an equally good coffee in Postum,
ana Its health-givlng properties. are sim
ply undeniable. Our little children use
Fostum regularly and go off to school
as healthy and happy as children should.
II ever husband or myself take drink
OF weak coffee at an evening gathering or
church social, we are kept awake until
past the middle OF the night. Yours for
health.

Merchants yesterday. Aside from the
Boer war and the situation in Kentucky,
the senator says that the Montana public

venture to predict what would be the out
come of the investigation, and for obvious
reasons declined to discuss the situation.
Mr.. Martin, who was associated with
Senator Powers In business for twenty
three years, is returning from an extend

unbounded prosperity prevails every

regard to the scarcity of labor, and of
building material.
