That Settled the Officer.

Recently a Duluth minion of the law
had occasion to visit a family living in
the West End. He wanted to see the
man of the house, but as he was not
in, he sat down and waited in the
kitchen. A young girl, apparently
about IL years of age, was busying
herself kneading bread.
The officer watched the proceeding
for some time, when he remarked:
Don't you go to SCHOOL,
No l stopped school some time
ago."
Il should think that a girl your age
would want to get as much education
as possible before taking the respon-
sibility attending household duties"
Eyes, maybe"
But why don't you go to school,
them"
Well" she stammefed, because
my husband thinks l had better stay
ct home"
Then the officer looked out of the
window and the conversation came to
an end.

New Providence, Iowa, July 9TH
Little Helen Moon, the three-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. f. " Moon
of this place, had a narrow escape from
death.
Her mother noticed she seemed to be
very clumsy and complained when she
was rocked. Her limbs and face were
bloated badly.
A doctor was summoned. but she got
no better. He said she had Kidney
Trouble in the worst form.
Two other doctors were called in, and
they agreed that there was very little,
IL any. hope. She was bloated all over,
her eyes being completely closed and
her abdomen bloated until 1t was pur-
pie.
They bought six boxes of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and she commenced to Inn
prove at once. She had used nine box
es before the dropsy was all gone. The
treatment was continued and now she
is as we'll as ever.
Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly saved
the little ones life.

In connection with the raising of
cherry trees, as a stock on which pop

Mahaleb cherry is pretty we'll known

tree II is almost a stranger 10 almost
every person. Possessing nothing but
accident-a scion lost or a stray seed
permits a plant to grow to a fruiting
stage. The suit is dark black, ex-
tremely small, and borne very abund-
antly on the trees. Ever with its plen-
t%ifulness, the picking would prove tedi-
u after being accustomed to larger
fruit. 1t is of comparatively dwarf
growth, and seems to thrive best in
rather heavy soil, and is most in favor
as a stock for planting in the Central
States. 1t is nearly always used for
sour varieties.-Meehan's Magazine.
