Filipino Joe.

After the presidents call for
troops in the spring of '98, 1 en-
listed in the U. S. army and in
ddue time was sent to the Phil
ippines. There [ met Joe--now
known as Filipino Joe and in a
*short time we became friends and
lbunkies.
One day while we we're hiking
through jungles and mud after
rebels, we struck camp. Instead
'ef resting, Joe asked Captain
Van Lewis permission to go hunt
ing, telling him he had seen some
prairie chickens little way back.
The permission was granted and
Joe started on his hunting trip.
He took no gun, but carried with
him both his own and my KNAPP
sacks. In half an hour he re-
turned with six game chickens
which he had pilfered from a
coop. The captain asked him
what luck he had had, "Good
luck, SIR replied Joe. ''The
jungles are full Of prairie chickens,
but for the want of the right sort
of gun, I have only six, two for
the captain, two for my bunkie
and two for myself" The captain
smiled and winked the other eye;
and after that gave him more time
FOR hunting.
That evening while I was put
ting up our dog-tent, Joe pre-
pared the supper. He gathered
some damp hemp to build a fire,
but it would not burn. First he
grumbled, then he swore, and
%hen-"Say Hank, what in the
devil is this stuff? It looks like
hay and it feels like hay but it
won't burn worth a hang" We
finally got the fire burning and
; sat down to supper of chicken
q la Filipino, bareback a la
Americana and coffee la Rio.
A week later [ was shot while
on the skirmish line in northern
Luzon, and was sent to the hos
:pital at Manila. 1 did not see
Joe until [ was on board a trans
port bound for San Francisco.
eOn landing, 1 was taken to the
Preside hospital, and Joe was
given an honorable discharge.
AS he babe me good-by, he told
me he was going into politics.
Last summer he wrote me to the
effect that he had been nominated
for the vice-presidency by the
ahoboes, in convention at Britt,
IOWA. Admiral Dewey, he said,
'7was at the head of the ticket.
Now Joe is in a county bastile
in this state, awaiting the action
of grand jury. [ received a
letter from him a few days ago in
which he told me that he had
dreamed he was hunting chickens
in the far away Philippines, and
that he awoke to find himself in a
farmers yard, with a sackful of
chickens on his back and farmer
in front demanding his surrender.
Seeing that the jig was up, and not
liking the looks of the big cannon,
he gave in.
If Joe can make the jury be-
Iieve in his dream, all will be we'll;
If not, he will soon be with me in
the Irvine shop and will learn

vi.nn..s Club of tn, divorced.

Vienna has a new society which
should rouse some American cities to
noble emulation. No woman not d.
vorced is eligible to membership, but
there is nothing frivolous about the or
ganization. 1t is to be called the HUI
manity club, and its badge is a silver
ring, engraved with that word, and
worn on the wedding ring finger. The
appropriateness OF the name seems a
trifie occult; but. presumably, divorce
ed woman has more troubles of her
own, in Austria, than here and needs
moral support. The idea of band OF
divorced women meeting weekly "for
mutual entertainment and support"
will probably strike the average Am
erican citizen as distinctly humorous;
but 1t is serious matter in Vienna,
and the club proposes building for
itself a permanent home.-New York

A DOCTOR THIS TIME.

Portland, May 6th.-Dr. Z. A. Rose,
practising physician, formerly OF
Yates Center, Kans., was on what
everyone supposed was his death
bed He had Diabetes, and six Of
his brother doctors were In attend
ance and consultation at his bedside
They had done everything that medi-
cal skill could suggest to save his life,
but they were at last reluctantly forced
death.
His aunt had been summoned to his
dying bedside. After the doctors had
given her nephew up, she insisted that
as a last resort. he be given a treat
ment of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
From the very first dose, the tide
turned in his favor. His life was
saved, and he is hale and hearty to-
day.
This case and It's cure has amazed
the physicians, and is the sensation Of
the hour. 1t is interesting to note
that while many others are being
cured this great discovery in medi-
cine, the physicians themselves are
among the first to benefit, and that
while the simpler and more prevalent
forms, such as Rheumatism, Sciatica,
Bladder and Urinary Trouble and Fe-
male Weakness disappear before 1t,
the more malignant forms, such as
Bright's Disease. Diabetes and Dropsy,
which have always been regarded as
incurable, are yielding just as easily.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are fast super
ceding all other treatment for Kidney
Disease, and as nearly all human sick
ness and suffering has It's origin in the
Kidneys. the use Of this wonderful
medicine Is becoming almost universal.
