Couldn't Wear Shoes.

Sumpter, ILL.,, Sept. 9.-Mrs. ]. B.
Flanagan of this place had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She was
SO very bad that for the last three years
she has not been able to wear her shoes.
She had doctored all the time, but was
gradually getting worse.
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for some
medicine at Mr.. J. ]. Dale's drug store
in Carmi. Mr.. Dale persuaded him to
have his wife try Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and he bought six boxes. His wife
used five out of the six, before she was
entirely cured. She is now as sound
and we'll as ever she was completely
restored to health, and free from any
symptom whatever of Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is pleased
at her wonderful deliverance does not
half express her feelings, and she and
Mr.. Flanagan are loud in their praises
of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and of Mr.. Dale
for recommending this wonderful rem
edys to them.
Tie fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such severe
case of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked Of remedy ever known in White
County.

The Webster Log Cabin.

When Gen. Harrison got the Wing
nomination for the presidency that Dan
iel Webster had hoped for, log cabins
were in popular demand as birthplaces.
Even Webster, in a political speech at
Saratoga, catching the spirit Of the times,
lamented that he, too, had not been born
in the September Century this extract
from the speech in question:
"Gentlemen, it did not happen to me to
be born in a log cabin; but my elder
brothers and sisters were born in log
cabin, raised amid the snowdrifts of New
Hampshire at. period so early that
when the smoke first rose from its rude
chimney and curled over the frozen hills
there was no similar evidence of a white
mans habitation between it and the
settlements on the rivers Of Canada. Its
remains still exist. 1 make to it an &C.
tual visit. I carry my children to it, to
teach them the hardships endured by the
generations which have gone before
them. And if ever I am ashamed of Il.
or If ever fail in affectionate generation
for him who raised it. and defended il
against savage violence and destruc-
ton, cherished all the domestic virtues
beneath its roof, and, through the IRE
and blood Of a seven years revolutionary
war, shrank from no danger, no toll. no
sacrifice, to serve his country, and ia
raise his children to q condition better
than his own, may my name and the
name Of my posterity be plotted forever
from the memory Of mankind!''

Easy Come, Easy Go.

The man who creeps along bent over,
with his spinal column feeling in a
condition to snap like pipestem at any
minute, would readily give great deal
to get out of his dilemma, and yet this
Is only the commonest form by which
lumbago seizes on and twists out of
shape the muscles of the back. This is
commonly known as backache, crick
in the back, but by whatever name it
may be known, and however bad it may
be, ten minutes vigorous rubbing with
st. Jacobs Oil on the afflicted part will
drive out the trouble and completely
restore. 1t is thing so easily caught
it may be wondered at why there is not
more of it, but because it is so easily
cured by st. Jacobs OIL may be the
very reason that we hear so little Of It.
