Still Another Case.

Franksville, Wis, Oct. 12th.-Many
remarkable cures are being reported
from all over the country but there
is one right here in Franksville which
is certainly worth publishing. and
which has not as yet been given to
the public.
Mrs. Louis Markison OF this place
had been a sick woman for quite q
long time and could not find anything
to give her any help. She suffered all
the painful symptoms Of what is gen.
orally known as female weakness.
Every woman who reads her story
will understand these distressing con-
ditions which combine to make the
lives of many women one long bur-
den of weakness and suffering.
Mrs. Markison chanced one day to
hear of new remedy called Dodds
Kidney Pills, tina. was said to be a
splendid medicine for women's weak
ness. She determined to try some
and soon found herself getting better.
She kept on with the pills and was
cured. Speaking of her case, Mrs.
Markison says
Il can and do praise Dodd's Kidney
Pills as remedy for female weakness.
They are the best medicine | have
ever known, and have done me
great deal of good.'

PROSPERITY IN NORTHWEST.

Mitchell. South Dakota. Sept. 30
The South Dakota idea this year is to
emphasize the riches OF this state.
When 1t is confidently stated that this
year for the sixth consecutive year
South Dakota will lead all other states
in the greatest per capita wealth. it
can readily be understood why South
Dakota is ambitious to advertise Its
crops and resources.
The report of fortnight ago regard
ing the heavy fall of snow and dam
age done to the crops by frost, now
appears to have been false alarm.
This is the judgment of party of
newspaper men and representatives OF
the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul Ry.
who have made a trip of more than
] 200 miles through the state during
the last ten days. The greatest esti-
mate of damage that is now made by
those in position to know is, three
