With back constantly aching,
With distressing urinary disorders,
Daily existence is but a struggle
No need to keep it up.
Doan's Kidney Pills will cure you.
Belfast people endorse this claim:
Geo. H. Becker, farmer, SearSport avenue, says:
"Doan's Kidney Pills fulfill all the claims made
for them. Five boxes bought at Edmund Wilson'S
drug store in Belfast, completely freed me from
kidney complaint. AS there are great many
people in and around this section who know
from the symptoms that their kidneys are out
of order and who would give almost anything to
find relief but are unable to tell what course to
pursue, you are at liberty to use my name and
emphatically declare that Doans Kidney Pills
taken as directed will produce the much longed
for result. | have been SO lame from backache
could not do a days work and was often COM
PEELED to use a cane for assistance while walking
about. At night the continual nagglng aching
across the small of my back robbed me of sleep.
and as result arose next day poorly prep tred
for the commOneSt work. The recommendation
of Doan's Kidney Pills to me lead me to try them,
and in return for the advice received have not
the slightest he sitaton in publicly endorsing the
remedy so that others may benefit by my expert
ence"

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
md seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
loes not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
md gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.

And 60 on tip toes,
It's only minute to Toy.land.

And tin soldiers regulate Toy land
There's fun all the year in Toy-land,
To sorrow twas a coy land;

And steam cars for fun,
They re wound with keys in Toy land.
Bold jumping jacks thrive in Toy land;
Fine castles sdorn this joy.lsnd;
And bright the dreams

TRACK LAYING MACHINE.

The track laying machine, with its
gang of laborers, completed laying
the rails on the new G. G. W.
Waverly- Oelwein cutoff Friday, and
regular trains will soon be running
from Omaha to Oelwein, via the Fort
Dodge extension and this cutoff. This
makes four G. G.. W. lines diverging
from Oelwein, and with the two of
the Rock Island makes six spokes in
the Oelwein hub. The track laying
machine is quite curiosity. On the
front car of the train is small engine
which obtains steam from the locomo-
tive five cars back, through an iron
pipe. PROJECTING in front of this car
about car length, and on the right
side of the track, is a horizontal car
rier with rollers and spur wheels,
the latter turned nv tumpling rod
geared to the wheels. This carrier
extends back about dozen cars, and
is the means of conveying the ties
from the rear cars to the front of the
train where they are placed in posi-
ton by the workmen. On the other
side of the tram, extending back five
cars, is a similar carrier that conveys
the rails to a point about twenty i've
feet in advance of the front car. Here
they are laiu OH the ties, the fish
plates bolted on, and rods adjusted to
retain them the proper distance apart.
A gang follows to spike the rails to
the ties. the ballusting follows, and
the road is ready for business Two
miles of rails are laid per day. -Oel-

finding of large portion of the bones
of a huge prehistoric animal. suppos-
ed to be a mastodon, ny H. French s

tom. about four miles north of Post
Vile. The largest molars weigh nine
pounds and measure twelve inches in
length OH the grinding surface, by
three and q half inches wide. The
lower jaw measures eighteen inches
in length and probably about sixteen
inches wide. Several pieces of verte-
brae measure six inches in diameter
with shoulder blade and pelvis of
huge proportions. The ribs as we'll

decayed, but still in fair condition.

RIDE FOR>IIFE.

By running horse almost to death,
Fred Palmer. q young farmer residing
near Washington, Iowa, saved the
life of his two-year-child. Unbe-
known to its parents the child had
taken strychnine, which had been
placed In a vacant room of the farm
house to kill rats. The child went
into commissions Immediately, and
the father, seizing the little one in
his arms, mounted a bareback horse
and made trip to the doctors office,
a distance of over two miles, in five
minutes. Three physicians and sew
eral assistants worked hard several
hours and restored the child to nor
NAL condition. The stomach was
thoroughly pumped with a syphon.
The child's pulse went up to 200 and
it's spasms were frequent and horrify-
ing to see. The thoughtfulness of the
father saved the child. Another
minute and it would have been too
late.

HAY FEVER CURE.

We are going to tell a little story
here for the sake of those who suffer
from hay fever and asthma. It's not
a patent medicine nor is it paid for
We won't vouch for a word of truth
there may be in it. We simply tell
the story as it was told us. Rob
Pierce in years past had been a serious
sufferer from asthma. This we do
know. Some one told him a few years
ago that if he would get muskrat
skin and wear it over his lungs year
in and year out that he would never
again be bothered with asthma. Bob
SAYS he tried it and since putting it
OH, nearly six years ago, he has not
suffered one iota from asthma or hay
fever. We know Bob is we'll today,
while good many about are suffer
ing. Now if this will do single
sufferer any good we are thousand
times paid for publishing it. A Tusk-
rat skin can be purchased for dime
and the only Inconvenience will be
the feeling of the hide next TO you for
a short time and the s,aell of the same.
which is not bad and which will not
las t any great length of time. Ma.
