Appearance of q Fortress.

The outside Of the building will have q
fortress appearance. An armory some
what on the same plans as this has been
the dream Of local guardsmen for years.

that cities and towns were enabled to
erect armories by making direct appro-
priation for the purpose and by Issuing

Minneapolis have many times declared
themselves in favor of new armory, the

THE TEST OF TIME.

Mrs. Clara ]. Sherbourne, Profess
sional Nurse Of 257 Cumberland St.,
Portland, Maine, says:-
81 heartily wish those who suffer
from some disturbed action OF the
kidneys would try Doan's Kidney
Pills. They would, like me, be more
than surprised. My back annoyed
mo for years. Physicians who dag
nosed my case said it arose from
my kidneys. When the grip was cpl
demis, was worn out with constant
nursing, and when I contracted 1t
myself it left me in a very serious
condition. I could not straighten
nor do the most trivial act without
being in torture. The kidneys were
too active or the secretions were too
copious, and knew what was wrong,
but how to right it was q mystery.
1t seems odd for professional
nurse, who has had great deal OF
experience with medicines, to read
advertisements about Doan's Kidney
Pills in the newspapers, and 1t may
appear more singular for me to go
to Fl. II. Hay & Sons drug store for
box. But I did, however; and had
anybody told me before that it was
possible to get relief as quickly as
I did I would have been 10th to be-
lieve it. You can send anyone who
wishes more minute particulars
about my case to me, and / will be
only too glad to tell them PERSONAL
ly. As long as I live will be firm
advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills."
Cure Confirmed S Years Later.
"Lapse of time has strengthened
my good opinion Of Doan's Kidney
Pills, first expressed in the spring
of 1896. I said then that had any
body told me that it was possible
to get relief as quickly as I did I
would have been 10th to believe it.
Years have passed and my continued
freedom from kidney complaint has
strengthened my opinion of Doan's
Kidney Pills and given me a much
higher appreciation of their merits"

ney medicine which cured Mrs. Sher-
bourne will be mailed on applica-
ton to any part of the United States.

A STOLEN SECRET.
Valuable Information Regarding
CAST Steel Obtained Under the
Guise Of Poverty.

The history of cast steel presents .
curious instance of q secret stealth
lily obtained under the cloak of an
appeal to philanthropy. In 176O there
lived at Atterchiff, England, watch
maker named Huntsman. He became
dissatisfied with the watch springs in
use and set himself to the task Of
making them homogeneous. He sue
ceeded, his steel became famous, and
about ITO a large mandatory of
this peculiar steel was established
ut Attercliff. The process was
wrapped in mystery, faithful men
were employed, high wages paid, and
stringent oaths administered, says
the Mining and Engineering Review.
One mid-winter night, as the tall
chimneys of the Attercliff steel works
belched forth their smoke, a traveller
knocked at the gate. 1t was bitterly
cold, and the stranger awakened no
suspicion. Moved by motives Of hui
mainly, the foreman let him in.
Feigning to be worn out with cold, the
fellow sank upon the floor and soon
appeared to be asleep. That, however,
was far from his intention. He saw
the workmen cut bars of steel into
bits, place them in crucibles and
thrust the crucibles into the furnaces.
The fire was urged to extreme heat
until the steel was melted, and then
drawn out and poured in liquid forms
into molds. Mr.. Huntsman's factory
had nothing more to disclose; the Sc
cret of making cast steel had been
stolen.
