A Farmer Found IT.

Mount Pleasant, Utah, May 23.-To
find a medicine that will cure every all.
ment due to diseased or disordered Kid.
neys has been the aim of many physi.
clans and chemists.
Mr.. G. E. Peterson, farmer Of this
place says he has found such remedy
and that he has tried it with success in
his own case. Mr.. Peterson says the
remedy is Dodd's Kidney Pills, a medi-
cine introduced here about seven
months ago.
II am glad to be allowed to testify to
what good things Dodd's Kidney Pills
have done for me. l used this remedy
for Kidney trouble and it cured me
completely.
''I can heartily recommend Dsdd's
Kidney Pills to all who suffer with
any kind of Kidney trouble"
Mr.. Peterson's case is only enc Of
many just as convincing that have been
reported recently. This new remedy
seems to have conquered Rheumatism
completely, not a single case having
been reported where Dodd's Kidney
Pills have failed to cure perfectly and
permanently.

Why Mary Did Not sine

An able but easily embarrassed and
somewhat absent-minded young teach
er was about to begin a singing les
son one day when knock at the
school-room door interrupted proceed

and ushered in a delegation from a
prominent local Woman's club. When
the ladies We're comfortably seated
and each had assumed a critical, lis
tening attitude, the teacher resumed
the singing lesson. 1t was one of her
most stringent rules of action that
when company was present every
thing should go on exactly as usual.
One of her pupils, Mary Holmes. a
somewhat shy girl, had a good alto
voice, and the teacher was anxious
that she should display it to advan.

ingly, when 1 count four, you be

or says: 1.-THE contrivance consists OF
simple head strap, properly braced and
coming down between the horses eyes
and nostris, to its end in the shape OF
q sort of little metallic upper lip. The
latter little pieces Of metal, one about
two inches long, and not half an
inch wide, is humorously called a
trolley Bit Its curving side-ends, like
an ordinary bit, are so devised that a
very slight, gentle pull on the reins
brings the trolley bit against the top
Of the horses nose. In complete, ab-
sorption in the study Of new expert
ence the horse may be drizen right up
by the side Of noisy locomotive, or Of
a gong banging trolley car, that pre-
sents to the horse, under ordinary cir
cumstances, the sinister aspect Of
moving, perhaps living, thing, going
without any visible means Of propul-
sion; and in his strict attention to tho
new sensation at the tip Of his nose he
will take no notice of the car or Of the
locomotive. The queerest thing Of all
is the fact that no amount of use or IA
miliarity with the nose-tOucher ar
rangement seems to lessen the horses
interest in it."

Horses are frequently troubled with
brittle hoofs, caused by deficiency OF
water In the bone. This condition may
be caused by fever Of the feet, as in
common founder; Inflammation Of the
interior of the feet; exposure to fer.
menting manure of filthy stables, by
which the horn Is saturated with
moisture containing ammonia. 1t may
also be caused by leaving the feet
covered with mud, or by continued dry
weather or other unhealthy conditions
The horn may thus become dry and
granulated and often separates very
easily, crumbling and splintering away
until there Is scarcely crust enough
left to fasten shoe upon.
The remedy is to remove the cause
and restore the moisture. Frequent
washing Of the feet with cold water
will aid materially in curing. Glycer.
inc and water in equal parts make ex.
cellent dressings for the hoofs.

sonally, previous to placing his name tc
the document, in which, may add, you
are deeply interested"
Earle Elfenstein started as he heard
these words, and looked from the lawye,
to the invalid beside him.
You are surprised, naturally" again
resumed Mr.. Gray. "and probably won
der what Mr.. Rappelye knows of you
| will explain this at once. Your father
was George Elfenstein, well-knoyr
banker; in years gone by he did Mr.
Rappelye never-to-be-forgotten service
His arrival in this country was follow,
ed by long and dangerous illness, when
he lay alone among strangers, almost
| neglected, and he attended to his wants
like brother, until he was entirely con.
valescent. They met often afterward
| and then lost sight Of each other. Years
Of silence passed, when accidentally he
learned about three months since that
his benefactor was dead, and his only
son was a struggling physician in New
York. He has heard of your fearless
conscientious manner of meeting your ell,
gagements, and this was characteristic
he particularly wished to find in some
young friend. When, therefore, his
health entirely failed, he determined tc
send for you, and perhaps place his af
fairs in your hands"
Anything that l can do within the
range of honor and integrity, shall be
pleased to undertake." Earle answered
I'VE felt so. The case then is this
but, of course, you will recognize the
| fact that the history of our friends life
which l shall be obliged to unfold to you
is told in strict confidence. Will you
promise to regard that confidence as a
sacred trust, never to be told to another
until all that is now mysterious has been
swept awayT'

"Then will proceed. Our friend was
the youngest son of Sir Godfrey Glen,

Liverpool. This gentleman had one
daughter, who married against his
wishes, and three sons. Arthur, who

The young man was soon seated In q
handsome close carriage. Street after
street was traversed, until finally they
turned into the extensive grounds Of an
elegant residence.
As the young man stepped across the
piazza, the large doors were instantly
opened by a colored waiter, who motion
ed him to enter and proceeded to assist
in removing his oVercoat and wet over
shoes.
Crossing the marble floor Of the long
hall, he was ushered into a room ele-
gantly appointed. The bright CRATE fire
cast a cheerful glow around, while the

very soon sumptuous dinner was serv-
ed, Of which he alone partook.
Leaving the doctor to enjoy his solitary
meal, we will precede him to the story
above, and to the presence Of the invalid,
whose urgent telegraphic dispatch had
brought him to the place.
The second story back room was large
and commodious, opening into a room be-
yond, where every luxury abounded, for
the comfort of the master.

These words issued from the pale lips
OF the sufferer, who was half sitting, half
reclining upon the bed.
HAS DR.. Elfenstein come? thought

you did, and he is here" returned the
nurse and housekeeper. II thought it
best to have him take dinner before you
saw him. I presume you have much to
say and would prefer not to be interrupt

ments now"
"Has my lawyer Gomez"
"Not yet. But the door bell rings. I
think that is he"
Set that stand with writing materials
close by my bed, then go down and show
both gentlemen to this room; after which,
you can leave Us to ourselves until you

Making herself known to the doctor,
the nurse introduced him 30 Mr.. Gray,
then led the way to the sick mans pres
ence.
Here is Mr.. Gray, Mr.. Rappelye, and
this Is your expected friend, DR.. Ellen
stein"
Reaching forth thin, white hand the
old man smiled feebly, and between
struggling breaths managed to say:
Il am very glad to gee you"
Taking the emaciated hand in both his,
Earle Elfenstein pressed it tenderly, and
in low tone full Of feeling responded:
II am glad I could come to you, but
sorry, very sorry to see you SC illr'
You must wonder why I summoned
you, an entire stranger to nv side in
this unceremonious way, but have i'm.

such an exertion, my lawyer, Mr.. Gray,
must explain for me my wishes, and
why sent for you"
These words were uttered at intervals,
for his short breathing prevented long
sentences, and gently releasing his hand
Blfenstein took the seat close beside the
bed, while Mr.. Gray seated himself in a
business-like way beside the table.

RETIRES FROM
HEALTH BOARD
DR.. Stinson, Senior Mem
Der of Body, Hands Resig-
nation to Mayor Schmitz

DR.. ]. Coplin Stinson has resigned his
position as a member of the Board of
Health. His letter of resignation was
handed to Mayor Schmitz yesterday
and was accompanied by request that
it be acted on at the earliest conve-
nience of his Honor. DR.. Stinson at
tributes his retirement from the board
to two reasons, one being that his pri-
vate affairs prevent him from devoting
the necessary attention to the business
of the board, and the other that he is
contemplating trip abroad and is anx-
ious to free himself of all local respon-
sibilities.
When asked yesterday concerning his
resignation the doctor said he had been
considering it for some time, and he
added that he regretted severing the
friendly business relations that exist
between himself and the other members
of the board. Lately he has missed sew
eral meetings of the board, and he
considers it his duty to resign in order
that his place may be filled by some
other physician who can give the proper
attention to the city's affairs.
Two years ago DR.. Stinson was ap-
pointed a member of the Board of
Health as the successor of DIR. Will
hanson, and is now the senior member
of that body.

KILLED BY ELECTRIC CAR
Little Frank Barry Meets Sudden
Death While Trying to Cross

Telephone Private 313.

Frank Barry. the S-year-old son Of
George Barry. a laborer. living at 80
Shipley street. was knocked down and
killed by an electric car early last
evening on Fourth. street, near Fol-
som. The child's skull was frac-
tured and his body was badly
mangled.
According to the story told by the
boys parents, he had been missing
from his home but a few moments
when news of the accident was
brought to them. 1t appears that the
lad was attempting to cross the track,
when he stumbled and fell directly in
front of a north-bound car. Before
Motorman George NJ. Eaglin could ap-
ply the brakes the child was killed.
Eaglin was later arrested and charged
with manslaughter at the Central po-
lice station.
