Pope Leo's Successor.

The story has been telegraphed from
Rome that Pope Leo XIII. has made
will in which he designates Cardinal
Gotti as his successor. 1t is pointed
out that each succeeding pope is
chosen by vote of the cardinals, and
that therefore the story of will is
most Improbable. On the other hand,
It is declared that as the papal author
ity is absolute the present pontiff
would have the right to nominate
the man to succeed him. In addition,
Cardinal Gotti has long been the
especial favorite Of Pope Leo.

A MIRACLE EXPLAINED.

Bryant, Mo-, May 1s.-The sensa-
tional cure of Mrs. N. A. Goss, of this
place, has sent a ripple of excitement
all over Douglas County, and Dodd's
Kidney Pills, the remedy in question,
are receiving thereby, the greatest
advertisement any medicine has ever
had in this state.
To satisfy the many inquiries
which she finds it impossible to an
swer by letter, Mrs. Goss has sent the
following statement of her case to
the ST. Louis Globe-Democrat:
ST did not think could live a day
and suffer, as have lived and suf-
fered for months, with Sciatica and
Rheuma tism. I used baths and Hni-
ments of all kinds. Two physicians
treated me, one of them for two
months. Nothing helped me in the
least. I never slept more than ten
or fifteen minutes at time. I was
belfast, and had to lie on one side all
the time. I used to wish for death,
to deliver me from such torture.
"A friend suggested Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and after I had used them a
week, I began to improve, and il
about four weeks I could sit up in
bed. A few days later, walked a
quarter of mile and back. I now do
all my own cooking and house work.
The pain has entirely left me. and I
am a well woman. I have taken alto
gether, sixteen boxes of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved
my life" Mrs. NJ. A. Goss.
People come for miles to see Mrs.
Goss, and hear her wonderful story.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are working
marvellous cures in Missouri.

A FAMOUS OLD HOUSE.

The house of Walter Baker q CO...
whose manufactures of cocoa and
chocolate have become familiar in the
mouth as household words, was es-.
tablished one hundred and twenty
one years ago (17S0) on the Nepon-
set River in the old town of Dorches-
ter, suburb of Boston. From the
little wooden mill, ssby the rude
bridge that arched the food" where
the enterprise was first started, there
has grown up the largest Industrial
establishment of the kind in the
world. 1t might be said that, while
other manufacturers come and gos
Walter Baker & Co. go on forever.
What is the secret of their great
success? It is a very simple one.
They have won and held the conf
dence of the great and cons family in
creasing body of consumers by al
ways maintaining the highest stand
ard in the quality of their cocoa and
chocolate preparations, and selling
them at the lowest price for which
unauthorized articles of good quail
ity can be put upon the market. They.
welcome honest competition; but they.
feel justified in denouncing in tho
strongest terms the fraudulent meth
DDS by which inferior preparations
are palmed off on customers who ask
for and suppose they are getting the
genuine articles. The best grocers
refuse to handle such goods, not alone
, for the reason that, in the long run,
it doesn't pay to- do it, but because
their sense of fair dealing will not
permit them to aid in the sale Of
goods that defraud their customers
and injure honest manufacturers.
Every package of the goods made
by the Walter Baker Company bears
the well-lxnown trademark LA Belle
Chocolatiere," and their place of man
| ufacture Dorchester, Mass" House
keepers are advised to examine their
purchases, and make sure that other
goods have not been substituted.
An attractive little book of "Choics
Recipes" will be mailed free to any
housekeeper who sends her name and
address to Walter Baker & Co., Ltd,
15s State Street, Boston, Mass.

Fate of the caribbee 1.lana..

The chain of small islands stretch
ing in a graceful curve from Porto
Rico to Venezuela, "like beaded neck
lace across the throat of the Carrib-

sad article by Robert T. Hill. The
tropical beauties of these islands are
in strange contrast to the ruin and
poverty under which the people are
slowly being crushed. In the British,
French and Danish islands alike the
visitor sees ruined sugar mills, decay
ing houses and crowds of people of all
races begging pitifully for aims.
