ADIsTINGUISHED MISSIONARY

Washington, Ind, Sept. 23rds-There
is at present living at LOG E. 18th street,
in this city, a most remarkable man.
He is Rev. c. II. Thompson, and he
came to Washington from Little York,
Ind, short time ago.
Rev. Mr.. Thompson spent many
years of his long and useful life as a
missionary among the Indians of the
West. The great exposure and the
drinking of $50 much bad water
brought on Diabetes, and at Wagner,
Indian Territory, he was struck down
while preaching.
Physicians, one of them a Chicago
specialist, pronounced his case hope
less. Dodd's Kidney Pills were recon-
mended, and as a last resort he tried
them. He was completely cured, and
restored to good health and his case
and its cure has caused a sensation
among the physicians.
