A Tiuht Squeeze,

Brazils, Ark, May 11th.-To be
snatched from the very brink of the
grave is a somewhat thrilling ex-
perience and one which Mrs. M. o..
Garrett of this place has just passed
through.
Mrs. Garrett suffered with a Cere-
bro-Spinal affection, and had been
treated by the best physicians, but
without the slightest improvement.
For the last twelve months two
doctors were in constant attendance,
but she could only grow worse and
worse, till she could not walk, and
did not have any power to move at
all.
She was so low that for the great
err part of the time she was perfectly
unconscious Of what was going on
about her, and her heart-broken hus-
band and friends were hourly ex-
pecting her death.
The doctors had given up all hope
and no one thought she could pos
sibly live.
In this extremity Mr.. Garrett sent
for box of Dodd's Kidney Pills. 1t
was a last hope, but happily it did
not faii.
Mrs. Garrett used in all six boxes
of the remedy, and is completely
cured. She says:
Il am doing my own work now and
feel as well as ever | did. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved me from
death"

party that tariff revision shall be en-.
tirely kept out Of that campaign and
not taken up at all until after the cleo
ton of 1904.
But the question is, not what these
scheming leaders want, but what the
people want. To be leader one must
have a following. Can these Iowa
disturbers succeed in winning the
people away from the President and
the great mass of the Republican
party? Will the people follow them
in the direction of the camp where Mr..
Bryan stands reaching out his hands
in eager welcome? 1t remains to be
seen. We are inclined to think not.

A LAST RESORT.
Pure Food Should Be the First.


When the human machine goes
wrong it's ten to one that the trouble
began with the stomach and can
therefore be removed by the use Of
proper food. A lady well known in
Bristol, Ontario County, N. Y, tells
of the experience she had curing her
only child by the use of scientific
food: MY little daughter, the only
child and for that reason doubly dear,
inherited nervous dyspepsia. We
tried all kinds of remedies and soft
foods. At last, when patience was
about exhausted and the child's con-
dition had grown so bad the wlsole
family was aroused, we tried Grape
Nuts
"a friend recommended the food as
one which her own delicate children
had grown strong upon so purchas-
ed a box-as a last resort. In a very
short time a marked change in both
health and disposition was seen.
What made our case easy was that
she liked it at once and its crisp,
nutty flavor has made it an immedi-
ate favorite with the most fastidious
in our family.

established in western New York
where many friends use it regularly.

a Priceless Jewel.

The richest market in the world, the
priceless jewel of commerce, is the
market of the United States. The pro
tective tariff holds its treasure secure
to the American wage-earners and all
the American. people. This is the
simple essence of protection. II is
the cardinal principle of the American
tariff system which has been made
a national policy by the Republican
party: which, with the control of the
trusts" win be the great issue on
which Mr.. Roosevelt will go TO the
voters next year asking them to elect
him President of the United States.

Pork Responsible for Cancer.

Many English doctors are now con-
WINGED that the eating of pigs flesh in
different forms is greatly responsible
for the increase of cancer. They
point out that it is most common
among the poor, whose chief meat is
that of pigs, while the disease is ex'
tremely rare among the Jews.

HYPNoTlzED FOR AN OPERATION.
Woman's Leg Cut of Without Pain
While She Talked With Doctors.

From the New York Sun.
London, June 6.-The Daily Express
relates what 1t describes as the first in
stance in England of hypnotic suggestion
taking the place of an anaesthetic in a
serious surgical operation. A woman, SO
years old. was suffering from severely
liberated leg. and it was decided that
her life could be saved only by the am
putation of the limb.
She desired to be hypnotized for the
operation, dreading the use of chloroform,
which. 1t was believed would have been
dangerous in her case DR.. Aldrich Of
Chaplain, suburb of London. hypno-
tized her experimentally on several sue
cessve days, the hypnotic trance lasting
about half an hour on each occasion.
All the tests applied proved satisfac-
tory and on Wednesday DR.. Aldrich OPP
Grated upon her in the presence of two
other surgeons and a nurse ALL the doc.
tors were somewhat doubtful of success,
and had provided chlorororm In case of
emergency.
The operation began at $3.50 o'clock in
the afternoon. While II was in progress
the patient chatted with the nurse and
drank wine. TO an ordinary observer she
would have appeared to have been con-
scious the whole time.
Nevertheless, the operation was pain
less, and she was unaware of what was
passing.
While operating DIR. Aldrich said IT
am cutting off your leg below the knee"
The patient laughed and said: "All right;
hold my hand'' One of the surgeons took
hold of her hand, and when the nerves
were severed the patient gripped the doc
tors hand hard.
The operation was completed at $40.
The patient was awakened at SIS, where
upon she said: 81 have pins and needles"
There were no symptoms of shock. Her
pulse and temperature are normal; her
spirits are high and she eats we'll.
