ON VERGE OF INSANITY.

Mrs. f.. A. Deacon Tells Of q Case
Where a Lady Was In This Scri-
GUS Condition, But Was Saved.
East Randolph, N. Y, March H.
Especial. Mrs. f. A. Deacon Of this
town is Vice President of the local
women's Christian Temperance Union.
She is a lady of splendid capabilities,
and these she has always directed to-
wards the uplifting of humanity. What
Mrs. Deacon says is accepted in East
Randolph without question. No one
has ever doubted her truthfulness or
honesty of purpose.
Mrs. Deacon says: "My attention
was first called to the remarkable cur
alive value of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
through the cure of a literary lady who
was a friend of mine, and who from
mental overwork was on the verge Of
insanity. After the failure of her
physician to help her, her husband was
advised to have her try Dodd's Kidney
Pills, which she did with gratifying re-
suits. She used five boxes before she
was completely cured, but at the end
of two months treatment she was her
own happy, brilliant self once more.
"Feeling languid and worn out my
self, thought perhaps they would be
a help to me, and am very glad to
say that two boxes made a new wo-
man of me. [ feel ten years younger,
am in the very best of health, and ap-
preciate that it was entirely through
the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills. give
them highest Endorsement"
These cases are becoming very COM
mon in Cattaraugus county, and many
ladies have had experiences similar to
those of Mrs. Deacon and her friend.
What Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
for these suffering women, they will
do for anyone who gives them fair
trial.
They are soc box, six boxes for
$3.50. Buy them from your local drug

Glad She Had . Husband.


I met q wly-married friend of
mine in the book department the other
day. She looked like a snowdrop, for
she is just recovering from the grip,
which, between you and me, I think a
far more dangerous ailment and vast
ly more serious in its after effects
than we have been led to consider it.
I asked, politely, about her husband.
"Oh!" said she, with soulful earnest
ness, II have never realized what q
comfort it is to have a husband till I
had the grip. really don't know how
in the world should have got through
if I hadn't had Harry"
''He's a good nurse, then, sup

Hon. David Meekison is we'll known,
not only in his own State, but through
out America. He began his political
career by serving four consecutive
terms as Mayor of the town in which
he lives, during which time he became
widely known as the founder Of the
Meekison Bank of Napoleon, Ohio. He
was elected to the Fifty-fifth Congress
by a very large majority, and is the
acknowledged leader Of his party in his
section of the State.
Only one flaw marred the otherwise
complete success of this rising states
man. Catarrh with its insidious ap-
proach and tenacious grasp, was his
only unconquered foe. For thirty
years he waged unsuccessful warfare
against this personal enemy. At last
Pe-ru-na came to the rescue, and he
dictated the following letter to DR..
Hartman as the result:
II have used several bottles Of Pc
ru-na and feel greatly benefited there
by from my catarrh Of the head. I feel
encouraged to believe that if I use it
a short time longer will be able to
fully eradicate the disease of thirty
years standing. Yours truly,
David Meekison."
Many people can tolerate slight Ca
tarrhal affections. A little hoarseness,
q slight cough, a cold in the head, or 9
trifling arrangement of the digestive
organs, do not much disturb the aver
age person in his business. But this is
not true of the public speaker or stage
artist. His voice must always be clear,
