One Answer for All.

Lancaster, n Y. March 3Oth.-Post-
master Remers is still in receipt of
many letters asking II his cure has
held good
II will be remembered that some
time ago the particulars Of Mr.. Re-
mers' case were published in these
columns. He had been very low with
Diabetes. Physicians could do moth
Ing to s..ve him and he grew worse
and worse till someone recommended
Dodd's Kidney Pills A treatment OF
this remedy was begun and when eight
boxes had been taken Mr. Remers
began to see an Improvement, which
continued as the treatment proceeded
till he was completely restored.
He has since enjoyed perfect health
and is as robust and able man rs any
in Lancaster. Interviewed the other
day he said:
MANY people wrote to me when the
story OF my case was first printed and
some write to me yet asking If the
cure was only temporary and IL the
diabetes has returned have only one
answer to everybody. Three years ago

best physicians failed to help me and
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me. | am

No lnnuence.

In DR.. John Halls time It was the
custom in his church to use the old
fashioned, simple hymns, and the sing
ing was congregational. On one occa-
sion William NJ. Eyarts discovered E.
Delafeld Smith, then corporation coun-
sci of New York city, singing with all
his heart, and whispered to his friend:
why, there is Smith singing, 4 Want
to Be an Angel l know he wanted to
be district attorney, but didn't know
he wanted to be an angel"
The remark was repeated to Mr..
Smith, and quick as fash came the
retort: mo, have never mentioned
the matter to Evarts, knowing he had
no influence in that direction. "-Phila-

The new palace at Potsdam is being
Thoroughly refitted. The Neues Palais
has as yet no elevator, and one is be-
ing constructed for the use of the
members OF the Imperial family. Ar
rangements are also being made to in
troduce electric light. When these
changes have been accomplished all
the historic rooms and apartments will
be freshly decorated. A start Is even
now being made with the dwelling

have new silken hanglngs throughout,
interviewer with silver and gold. Fred
erick ordered the original hangings
from a mandatory in Lyons, and not
only have the new ones been ordered
In the same place, but the very same
pattern and design of the curtains are
still to be had. SO that the effect Of the
apartments as redecorated will be ex-
actiy the same as the old ones. New
rococo furniture, also after the precise

Sans Surprise When the Chickens
Went 70 Roost in Daytime.
During a visit TO the South with an
eclipse expedition some years ago an
eminent American professor met an
old negro servant whose duty it was
TO look after the chickens of the estab-
Iishment where he was staying. The
day before the eclipse took place the
professor in an idle moment called the
old man to him and said:
Sam, tomorrow morning at IL
O'Clock II you watch your chickens you
will hnd that they will go to roost."
Sam was slseptical, OF course, but
when at the appointed time next day
the sun in the heavens was darkened
andlthe chickens repaired to roost, the
negro's lastonishment knew no bounds.
He approached the professor in awed
wonder.
"Massa." he asked. show long ago
