TIE FOURTH o. JULY IN LONDON

A beautiful custom in London,
which has been touchingly described
by writers from this side, is one
which Americans have established in
memory of distinguished men of this
country to whom a niche of honor has
been accorded in Westminster abbey.
On the Fourth of July theySgo to
the abbey and hang wreaths of flow
srs or immortelles on the busts of
Lowell, Longfellow, and the great
American inventor, Count Rumford,
who was ennobled because of his
services to science.
Other celebrations of the Fourth are
held on ships at sea, in remote col

A Woman's Back.

Dublin, Mich, June 29th.-To the many
women who suffer with weak back and pains
the experience of Mrs. Fred Chalker of this
place will be interesting and profitable.
Mrs. Chalker had suffered a very great
deal with these back pains and although
she had tried many things, she could find
nothing that would relieve her. The pain
kept on in spite of all she could do.
At last she CHANGED to read the story of
another lady who had suffered with the
backache, and said she had been cured by a
remedy called Dodd's Kidney Pills, and Mrs.
Chalker thought she would try the same
thing.
After the first two boxes had been taken
according to directions, she began to feel
some better, and she kept on till at last she
was cured.
Her pains are all gone, and she is very
grateful. She says: ''Dodd's Kidney Pills
helped me greatly, and l will always recon-
mend them as a cure for Pain in the Back"
