A New Harness Device.

Horsemen generally are manifesting
interest lin an invention which it is
claimed will stop any horse the mo-
ment he attempts to run away and
gives the driver complete control over
the animal. The trials with the at
tachment on the horse have proved
successful in every case. The idea is
simple and can be arranged in min
ute to suit the rider or driver. says
The Horseman. 1t is a single rein
with buckle attachments. When in
use, the rein is buckled under the
crown piece and to the right of the
bride. Part Of the rein is then
brought under the horses throat and
through drop ring on the left side Of
the bride and Is then drawn across
the saddle to the carriage. AS soon
as the horse shows an inclination to
bolt the driver pulls the rein. which
shuts off the breathing Of the animal
and brings him to walk. The con-
trivance should become popular with
all horsemen.

Campbell, the Mexican traveller, and
came about as follows:
Some years ago when Mr.. Campbell
was travelling through the great Ia
mosopo Canon. he had seat on the
side OF the car next to the mountain,
the rocks of the cliff were within two
feet Of the window, and OF course he
could get not even a glimpse of the
canon. as all the windows on the other
side Of the car were taken up by the
occupants of the adjoining seats. De-
termined 10 view the magnifcence Of

a passenger car without top was de-
cided on, and the ChiIilitli came
in evolution from a work car to the
coal car, and to the contamination of

The Chililitli became famous
and from an observation car went on
duty as pavilion by the sea, and

Chronic Coughs and
Colds Are Catarrhal
Diseases.
catarrh Is the Continual ScOurge
OF ChriStendOm.

Catarrh hoYers ominously over every
city, and nestles treacherously in
every hamlet 1t flies with vampire
wings from country to country and
casts a black shadow of despair over
all lands. Its stealthy approach and
its lingering stay makes it a dread to
the physician and pest to the patient.
1t changes the merry laugh of child
hood to the Wheezy breathing Of
Group, and the song Of the blushing
maiden to the hollow cough of con-
sumption. In its whitening grasp the
rounded form of the fond wife and
mother becomes gsunt and spectral,
and the healthy flush Of manhood
turns to the saIloW, haggard Yisage OF
the invalid.
Cough takes the place Of converse
ton, speech gives way to splitting, the
repulsive. odors Of chronic catarrh
poison the kiss Of the fondest lovers,
and thickened membranes bedim

Catarrh in some form, catarfh in

its fiendish work in heart disease and
consumption.
No tissue, function, or organ OF the
body escapes its ravages; muscles
wither, nerves shatter, and secretions
dry up under its blighting presence.
So stubborn and difficult OF cure Is
this disease that to invent a remedy
to cure chronic catarrh has been the
ambition of the greatest minds in aII.
ages. Is it therefore any wonder that,
the vast multitude OF people who have
been cured OF chronic catarrh by Pc

AN ENEMY TO DRINK.

One Woman Who Has Done Great
Deal to Put Down This EVIL
Minneapolis, Mimi. Dec. 3.-(Spe-
ciaD-When the Independent Order OF
Good Templars Of Minnesota wanted
a State Organizer they chose Mrs.
Laura J. Smith, of 1917 West 33d
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 in
f1uence 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
burden and work impossible. Physi-
clans were consulted, and they pre-
scribed for Kidney Disease. Three
months treatment however, failed to
give Mrs. Smith any relief. Her hus-
band was much exercised, and cast
about him for something that would
restore his good wife to health and
strength. He heard of the cures eff
fected by Dodd's Kidney Pills, and ad-
vised her to try them, which she did.
She is now well woman and says:
Two weeks after l commenced tax
ing Dodd's Kidney Pills, l felt much
better, and at the end of seven weeks
was completely cured. l have had no
recurrence of the trouble, but l take
pill off and on, and find that it keeps
me in good health
