New Providence, Iowa, July 7th.-
Little Helen Moon. the three-year-o
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Z. V. 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,
If 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 i'm
prove at once. She had used nine box
es before the dropsy was all gone. The
treatment was continued and now she
IS as well as ever
Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly saved
the little ones life.

already been cancelled, as obtained in

can be secured without residence only
by perjury. In two days. at the

build a 7x1O shanty for s25. putting in a

have men to keep the fires lighted In

nouncc that this will not do, and they
are making a vigorous search for all
claims upon which actual residence IL
