AFTER TWENTY YEARS.

Lusks Springs, Ind.-June 9th.-It
would be hard to find happier man
than Mr.. William Catterson, of this
place, has been for the last few weeks.
For twenty years his wife has been an
invalid with complication of diseases.
Neuralgia, Rheumatism and generally
broken down constitution.
Mr.. Catterson had done everything
that loving care could suggest but in
vain-his wife only grew worse.
Recently, however, he heard of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and determined to give
them a trial and was overjoyed at the
splendid result.
From the very beginning of the treat
ment she commenced to improve till
now she is nearly we'll and Mr.. Cater
son is rejoicing. He says: Nothing
ever did her so much good. We will al
ways praise Dodd's Kidney Pills for the
good work they have done for u.s."

TO PREVENT DECAY.
Cleanliness Is the First Rule for the
Preservation Of the
Teeth.

The liability of the teeth to decay
varies in different persons, but it is
seldom that even the weakest teeth
could not be saved by cleanliness
says the Youths Companion. The
beginning of decay in a tooth con,
sists in the eating out of the lime in
the enamel by Tactic acid. This acid
Is the result of fermentation of the
starchy food particles left between
the teeth or between the loosened
gum and the neck of tooth. In or,
der to prevent it's formation the
mouth should be rinsed after each
meal with an antiseptic wash. A So
luton OF borax in lukewarm water
makes serviceable mouth wash, and
there are many other kinds to be
had in the drug stores. But word
OF caution is necessary here: An
astrlngent mouth wash, contrary to
the usual belief, is not good fol
long-continued use, for it may cause
retraction of the gums and conse
quent loosening of the teeth.
The teeth should be brushed a,
least twice a day, and in the evening
some dentifrice had better be used
Dentifrices acts mechanically-tha
is, they scour; or chemically-thati is
they cleanse and purify by killing dis
ease germs; or they may act both
mechanically and chemically. Most
OF them contain antiseptic sub
stances, and usually some soap.
The securing properties of denti
frlces are due to precipitated chalk
or magnesia, with some aromatic sub
stance added to give pleasant taste
sometimes powdered charcoal OF

An Irishman fighting under the
British flag was caught on the plain
by party of Beers. He refused to
surrender and resisted until he was
shot in a dozen places and left for
dead. He was found the next day

FRILLS OF FASHION.
Little Fancies of Dress for the Adorn,
ment of MiIady's Latest
Costume,

Many of the new silk blouses are
relieved with narrow bands of blacl
and white pin-striped silk and lace
The newest buckles resemble bat
oxidized, silver or gilt, with wings
outspread. The velvet or satin rib
bon is passed through and across the
center of the body, says the Brooklyn
Eagle.
A velvet ribbon, or one of soft
satin, drawn through the bat buckle
and tied in a short, outspreading bow
at the back, represents one of the
latest fancies for blouse waist fin
ishes.
Many of the handsomest of the sea
sons gowns in etamine and canvas
are artistically trimmed with an
tlque japanese embroidery, which
forms collar, revers and cuffs
For the convenience and comfort of
the fair automobiles some genius has
invented voluminous veil of mica
which is perfectly transparent, and
absolutely dust and air proof. The
veil is tied over the hat like the or
binary face protection of net or chit
fon, for the mica is exceedingly fiex
IDLE and not at all unbecoming.
Hand-worked white linen. showing
designs of perforated English EN-
broldery and medalions in solid
stitching, is one of the most effect

The new parasols, while light col
ored and bright in hue, are not as
befrllled as in some other seasons
except the full-dress fete parasols
Plain silks have patterns geomet
rlcal or otherwise; some are printed
with roses, some violets, some have
Persian designs, and the Empire
wreaths have found place upon
them.
Parasol handles have become so
elaborate that they are stored in the

WEALTH IN DESERT.
Waste Tracts Reclaimed by Modern
Scientific Irrigation.
Rich Crops of Melons and Vegetables

But Little Promise of Pro-
Effectiveness.
Especial Indio (CalD letter.

Two problems which have been
veXing the public mind for many
generations are likely to settle
themselves by cancellation. The one
how we are to dispose of our ever-in-
creasing population, the other-how
to secure a living proposition from
the waste lands of our great desert,
which stretches, broken by mountain
ranges, from north to south through
our own possessions and those of our
neighbor, Mexico. The journey of
weeks over barren lands, where the
wind overwh elmed the weary traveller
with storms of alkali sand and dust
with no water for days except what he
carried from the last watering place
and that, perhaps, brackish and pro-
ductive of disastrous symptoms, was
sufficient barrier to the rapid settle
ment of our Pacific coast.

grieved at seeing so much territory
unproductive. Of course, where irri-
cation from mountain streams has
proved feasible, most gratifying re-
suits have been obtained, but over hun
dreds of thousands of acres it has, I'M
til recently, seemed impossible to get
water on the soil. Since it has been
proven that a good supply may be OBJ
tanned from artesian wells, the desert
proposition has undergone an entire
change, and now little GASES NAV be
seen at intervals dotting the great
plains where formerly the cacti, mes

wells settlements are growing, sepa-
rated sometimes by hundreds of miles.

The valley is about 16 miles long and

DRlTEN OUT OF BUSINESS.


A surveying party on the line of
the Duluth, Virginia & Rainy Lake
Railway ran foul of News Tribune
reporter upon their return to Du-
luth the other day, and in conversa-
ton gave it out that they were put
out of business by the hordes of
mosquitoes and black flies, which
dug into the men with such vigor
that the men refused to work, and
on Saturday started for home. The
mosquitoes are said to be of lusty
variety, as large as bumble-bees,
and dig in with an avidity which
would denote an intention to fulfill
their mission with exactitude.
