A Veterans gtorv.

Bath. N. Y, April i3th.-The flrst
consideration OF the Commandant and
)hiccrs In the conduct Of the Soldiers
and Sailors Home here is the health
of the Veterans. Kidney Troubles are
the most common cause OF ailmcnt
very few of the old men escaping these
in some form or other.
Oi course the comrades do as much
as possible for themselves. and one OF
,hc most popular and useful remedies
employed Is Dodd's Kidney Pills
which seem 10 be almost lnfaliible IN
cases of Kidney arrangements. Indeed
thcrc arc among the veterans several
who claim to owe their lives to Dodd's
Kidney Pills.
For instance. A. T.. Ayers. who came
70 the hcme from Minneapolis. MINI.
was given mp by four doctors In that
city. lie had Brlght's Disease. ana
never expected to live through II. but
bis life was saved and his health re-
stored by Dodd's Kidney pills.
Ills experience has made the remedy
very popular among the men. and no
one who has used Dodd's Kidney Pills
FOR any Kidney Trouble has been dis.
appointed.

GOOD CUSTOMER OF FRANCE.
England Makes Heavy Purchases
from Her Oid.Time Foe.

Jean Finot. editor of the Revue des
Revues. recently put the relations be.
tween France and England in most
striking fashion. lie said:
Great Britain deserves the name
of the richest and most important of
French colonies. France Is so bound
up with her fate that the disappear.
ance of Englapd's economic power
would cause her incaiculaDle mischief.
Our total exports In 1901 were only
4,l55 100000 francs, of which Eng.
land took l,26i 100000 francs. or
more than 80 per cent of all the mer.
chandise which we cast on the
worlds market. But even of more i'm.
portance is the fact that the amount
Of English purchases In France is
constantly growing From 1882. .0O0,.
900 francs In 1896 II rose TO l,l32 600.
600 francs in 1897, TO Less, ,0U0. 600

francs in 1901, thus showing an In.
crease OF 232 .0O0, 900 francs. or over

about 3i,OO0.000 francs. together with
those scattered all over the world

600 francs. Besides this colossal
amount OF purchases, tho English
yearly spend considerable sums in
France. The money left In our coun
