The Origin of a Word.

The meaning of the name "Adiron.
dack'' is explained by an old Indian
legend. Long before any white man
had wandered up into the great north
wilderness, two hostile tribes of red
men used the mountain passes and
lakes for their battle ground. The
Montagnais Of the lower St. Law
renee lived almost entirely by the
hunt, and during the long Canadian
winters often had to live upon the
buds and bark of the trees. Their
hereditary enemies, the Mohawks,
subsisting on corn, pumpkins and 9TH
er vegetables, looked sneeringly upon
their foes, the "Ad-i-ron-dacks," or
"tree-eaters.' In time the name was
transferred from the eaters to the
thing eaten, and now the great North
Woods, as we'll as the mountains, all
go by the old Mohawk name, "Ad.
irondacks. -Four Track News.

A Sure Protection.

Barton, N. Dak, May sth.-Many
cases are being published of how dis
eases have been cured and lives saved
by Dodd's Kidney Pills, but there is
family in this place who use this
remedy as protection against the
coming on of diseases and with excel
lent results.
Mr. w. A. Moffet says: I'VE have
no yer yserious illness or complaint
for we always use Dodd's Kidney Pills
the very moment we feel the least
symptom Of sickness and they soon
put us right. If we have a touch of
lame back or think the kidneys are
not right, we take few of Dodd's Kid
ney pills and the symptoms are soon
all gone.
my brother had diabetes and the
doctor told him he could not live until
spring. got some Dodd's Kidney
Pills for him, and although that was
several years ago he has lived
through all the winters and springs
since and is still living. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills are wonderful medicine"

THE RAILWAYS OF EUROPE.

Travel Rates Moderate All Over the
Continent.
Most European railways carry three
classes of passengers, and those OF
Prussia and Saxony carry four. In
Wurtemberg you can buy a ticket
good for fifteen days, which is a
general pass over the railways OF
that kingdom. A third-class ticket OF
this kind costs about IS, which makes
travelling very cheap indeed, for with
it a passenger can ride as often, as
he likes, stop where he likes, or
travel continuously if he likes, within
the fifteen-day limit. In Switzerland
where the main lines of travel have
recently come into the hands of the
government, a similar pass is issued
A passenger desiring one of the tick
cts has to have his photograph affixed
to it to identify him and prevent
transfer. A fifteen-day ticket, third
class, costs something over $5.25, but
it will take you practically all over
Switzerland.

vic diseases have no idea that their
trouble is due to catarrh. The majority
of the people think that catarrh is a
disease confined to the head alone.

bronchial tubes, lungs, stomach, kid
neys and especially the pelvic organs.

Where the Chinese Are.

According to Export, d German

$50 Chinese living out Of China
as many as the total population of
Sweden and Norway.
America has comparatively few
of them, only 272,S29, a few less
than the little British island of
Hongkong alone boasts. Formosa
has 100000, but that used to be
Chinese, and they simply haven't
moved. Siam is the greatest goal
of actual emigration, having $500
900 Chinese, who have absorbed
pretty much all the active trade of
the country.
In the Malay peninsula, also, $685.
900 Chinese have nearly monopoliz-
ed trade under British rule. The
Sunda isles have 100000. The
Philippines, where the Chinese are
already problem, have only $4,000
of them.
