Indian Religion.

So benign was the religious system OF
Indian that each department of the
animal kingdom was provided with a
little divinity to look after its affairs.
Thus the Spirit of the Great Swan
after all swans, the Spirit of the
Great Turtle controlled all turtledom,
and so on through the list, every Kind
OF an animal having its own protecting
spirit to guard it's interests and punish
its enemies. These divinites-who were
under the control of the Great Spirit
felt q great interest in the human race,
any any one Of them might become the
protecting genius of any particular
man.

Thirty Years of Cures to Its Credit

Kidney diseases should be attended to

unexpected deaths of to-day are from
that cause DR.. David Kennedy's Fa-
vorite Remedy is the only sure cure
known for diseases of the Kidneys,
Liver, Bladder and Blood, Rheumatism,
Dyspepsia and Chronic Constipation. 1t
is marvellous how it stops that pain in
the back. relieves the necessity of
urinatng so often at night, drives away
that scalding pain in passing water, cor
reefs the bad effects of whiskey and beer
and shows its beneficial effects on the
system in an incredibly short time. 1t is
sold by all drug stores at S1.00 a bottle.
You can tell just as well as a physi-
clan whether your Kidneys are dis
eased or healthy. Fill a tumblet with
urine and let it stand "a hours; if it has
sediment if it is milky or cloudy,
discolored or pale if it is ropy or
stringy. your Kidneys and Bladder are
in dangerous condition and you do not
need a physician to tell you 50.
If you would like to test Favorite Rem

A Rich Mans Project.

A rich mans statement that he intends
to devote almost his entire fortune to
charitable work has aroused much dis
cussion. This is because it will accom-.
plish much good. 1t is a praisewOrthy
endeavor, but there are many other
agencies which accomplish just as much
good. Take Hostetters Stomach Bit
tiers for instance-the great American
remedy For fifty years it has cured
constipation, dyspepsia and all the ills
which arise from weak digestion. This
medicine will keep the stomach in good
shape and the bowels regular. 1t is a
wonderful restorative tonic and health
builder. 1t is also preventive for ma
laria, fever and ague. Ask for it, and
insist upon having it. See that Pri,
