4 South Dakota Mother n Her Little
Girl Express Their Gratitude In
an Open Letter.
FOLSOM, Custer Co., South Dakota,
Dec. 15.-(Special.)-Mrs. H. D. Hyde
has given for publication a letter ex-
pressing her %unbounded gratitude to
Dodd's Kidney Pills for the. double
cure Of herself and little daughter.
Mrs. Hyde has been troubled with
pains in her heart for over three years
and for a long time her little girl suf-
fered from weak kidneys. The grateful
lady does not seem able to find words
strong enough to express her gratitude.
She has written the following:
7 cannot say too much in praise OF
Dodd's Kidney Pills. They are the
greatest kidney and heart medicine l
ever used. I had been troubled for over
three years with a severe pain in my
heart, which entirely disappeared after
I had taken a few doses Of Dodd's
Kidney Pills. I also gave them to my
little girl, whose kidneys had been
weak, and she commenced to improve
from the very first dose. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills are certainly a wonderful
medicine. I would be pleased to have
this, my statement, published, as I feel
It my duty to let others know just
what the Pills will do for them.

American Nervousness.

A man of good habits and regular
life, taking a judicious amount of rest
and recreation, need be none the worse
mentally and physically for a rather
intense concentration upon the work of
his life, while that work is going on.
Some Of the worlds greatest thinkers.
in lines where the most perfect con-
centration and specialization were re-
quired, have been men of perfect
health and nerves and of long and Wig.
orous life. But they have not INDUCED
in fads and follies, their ~recreations
have been simple, they have not under
taken to compass the whole field of
human effort, and they have kept their
lives free from excuses in all direc-
lions.
Dr. Wettler thinks that it is the CON-
tinuity O.. work and worry that do
harm, rather than the work and worry
in them selves. In a measure, this is
true; but many persons work for that
which does them no good and worry
about hat which is Of no account. It
they are made nervous. we do not see
why the fault should be charged to CIV
ilization. In this respect they are dis
tinctly uncivilized.- New Bedford
