BETTER THAN CHRISTIAN
SCIENCE.

Jetmore, Kan, July 1st.-Mrs. Anna
Jones Freeman, daughter of Mr.. G..
G. Jones, of Burdett, and one of the
most popular ladies in Hodgeman
County, has been martyr to head
ache for years. 1t has made her life
a continual misery to her. She suf-
fered pains in the small of the back,
and had every symptom of Kidney
and Urinary Trouble.
To-day she is as well as any lady
in the state.
This remarkable change was due
entirely, to remedy recently intro
duced here. It is called Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and many people claim it to
be an infallible cure for Kidney Dis
eases, rheumatism and Heart
Trouble.
Mrs. Freeman heard of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and almost with the first
dose she grew better. In week her
headaches and other pains had gone,
and she had left behind her all her
illness and days of misery.
A medicine that can do for any one
what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
for this lady, is very sure soon to be
universally used, and already the de-
mand for these pills has increased
wonderfully in Pawnee and Hodge,
man Counties, where the particulars
of Mrs. Freeman's case and it's cure
are known.

KILL THE DANDRUFF GERM

Or Your Hair Will Fall Out TIL You

Modern science has discovered that dan
druff is caused by germ that digs up the
scalp in scales, as it burrows down to the
roots of the hair, where it destroys the
hairs vitality, causing falling hair, md, ul:
timately, badness. After Prof. E ma, of
Hamburg, Germany, discovered the dan
druff germ, all efforts to find a remedy
failed until the great laboratory discovery
was made which resulted in Newbro's
Herpicide. 1t alone of all other hair prep
arations kills the dandruff germ. Without
dandruff, hair grows luxuriantly. de-

A Narrow Escape.

Little Tessie Teck, years old, who
lives near the Milwaukee railroad
tracks in Minneapolis, was run over by
three heavy railroad engines, and yet
she lives and will recover. The little
girl crossed the tracks and started to
return. Just as she approached the
main track she was struck by three
passenger engines that were backing
down to the railroad shops for the
night. The little child was thrown in
the middle of the tracks, and with the
rarest presence of mind laid there mo-
tionless until the engines had all passed
over her frail little body. Only few
bruises was the result.
