Nothing OF Value"-Nattyes Baptized.

Manila, Feb. 5.-Fewer than 400 per-
sons attended the meeting called by
Senior BuencaminO to inaugurate the
evangelical movement" Considerable
interest was manifested in the pro-
seedlings and there were some express
sions of approval of the addresses. No
attempt, however, was made to COM
nit the meeting to Professionalism,
that aspect of the case being left for
subsequent action, at his discretion,
to Rev. James Rodgers, missionary
Of the Presbyterian board, who was
present.
Senior Buencamino explained that
religious effort was wholly outside the
federal party which had been or.
ganized solely to promote political
peace. The first mild applause oc-
cured when he compared priests to
white ants which eat the substance
and leave nothing of value" Senior
Buencamino argued in favor of sup
planting the present priests with Fill
pinos, having the privilege of mar
'ying. Gradually he led up to Protest

POLICE OFFICER RESCUED.
Omcer A. G. Swanson of the Council
Bluffs Force Tells an Inter-
esfing Story.

Council Bluffs, Ia, Feb. 4, 1901 (SHe-
cial) Officer Swanson,
of the local police force, isovery pop
uiar in this city. He has lived hero
for seventeen years, and has enjoyed
many high offices in social and society
work. He is now vice president of the
'sDannebrog" Brotherhood, the larg-
est Danish secret society in America,
which combines benevolent with the
social features. Owing to the con-
slant exposure and many hours on his
feet, which his duty as a Police OFF,
Ger makes unavoidable, Mr.. Swanson
became the victim of serious Kidney
and Liver Trouble. He was very bad,
but has entirely recovered. He gives
the story in his own words as follows:
81 have been a sufferer for many
years with Kidney and Liver Trou-
bic, and have tried many remedies,
some of which gave me temporary re-
lief, and others which were absolutely
worthless. I began to thipk that
there was no help for me. when my
nephew gave me a part of a box Of
Dodd's Kidney Pills which he had left,
saying that it would do no harm to
try them, as they had certainly fixed
him all right. What he gave me
helped me so much that I felt justified
in purchasing more, and grew slowly
better. 1t took almost two months to
effect a complete cure, as mine was
a very bad case, but / can cheerfuily
and truthfully say that I am a well
man to-day, and I am very grateful
that Dodd's Kidney Pills were thus
brought to nv notice."
The wonderful cures effected by
Dodd's Kidney Pills in Iowa have
created quite a sensation in some
parts of the state. There does not
seem to be any case of Lame Back,
Rheumatism, Kidney or Bladder Trou-
BILE which these wonderful Pills cam
not cure. They are certainly pop
ular here, and the sale through tho
local druggists is very large.
