Mrs. Thomas does not enllghten us
as to what treatment she pursued dur

suggest that had she called in any

not know the high opinion in which
st. Jacobs Oil is held by almost every

CouIdn,t YYear Shoes.

Sumpter, H., Sept. 9th.-Mrs. ]. Z.
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. ]. ]. Dale's drug
store in Carmi Mr.. Dale persuaded
him to have his wife try Dodd's Kid
ney 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, COM
pletely 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
remedy to them.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such a severe
case of dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up. has made them the most
talked of remedy ever known in White
county.

Wan with Bandaged Hand Would Have
Been Shut Out in Washington.

Washington, Sept. 9.-Was there
relaxation of police protection of the
president at Buffalo? 1t is the opinion
Of local police authorities that if or
binary common-sense methods had
been pursued the assassin could not
have reached President Mckinley with
a revolver concealed under a handker-
chief in one hand. The Washington
police declare that if Nieman or any
other man with bandaged hand at
public ceremony held at the national
capital he would have been forced to
submit to a minute inspection of the
bandage.
The plan employed here in advanc-
ing strangers along line made up for
the purpose of enabling persons COM
prising it to shake hands with the
president is to have not less than four
and often five trained men stationed
at intervals of ten feet apart, whose
duty it is to pass the people along.
They veil their real purpose, which is
closely to insepct each person by an
nouncing the names to each other.
They adroitly force the candidate for
a shake of the presidents hand to
keep both of their own hands in full
view, and If anyone exhibits a desire
to avoid this requirement the offending
hand is rather forcibly jerked from the
position in which it might have been
placed.
A bandaged hand always incites a
minute inspection of the bandage and
If there should be anything suspicious
about that the person wearing the
bandage is denied the privilege of
getting within reach of the president.

New York, Sept. 9.--President Nc
Kinley was warned on May % last to
beware of assassins during the month
Of September. This warning was sent
to him while he was in San Francisco
by Gustave Meyer, mere boy, of 1Ol
Washington street, Hoboken. At the
time President Mckinley was watching
eagerly over the bedside of Mrs. Nc
Kinley, whose life was despaired Of by
the attending physicians for several
days.
Young Meyer had predicted the cleo
ton of President Mckinley, and when
he was elected he remembered the pre-
diction of the Hoboken boy and wrote
him a letter thanking him.
When Mrs. Mckinley was taken i'll
on the western trip and was thought
to be dying young Meyer wired the
president at San Francisco as follows:
your wife will live another year
until about February or March-but
be careful of yourself. You will be
shot or stabbed during the month OF
June or else in September"
The young astrologer was firmly
convinced that there would be an at
tempt made to take the presidents life
during the month of June, but he said
it might be delayed until the autumn.
He said that he determined this from

Governor Northcott spoke sympa-

any evil in the social conditions OF our

by insane persons may occur in any
