The Rue-Anemone,

Under an oak tree in woodland. where
The dreaming spring had dropped it from
her hair.
L found a flower. through which I
seemed to gaze
Beyond the world and see what no man
Behold and live-the myths of bygone
days:
Diana and Endymion and the bare
Slim beauty of the boy whom Echo
And Hyacinthus whom Apollo dewed
With love and death, and Daphne, ever
And that reed-slender girl whom Pan
pursued.
stood and gazed, and through it seemed
The Dryad's feet dance by the forest
tree,
Her hair wild blown; the Faun, with
Deep in the boscage, kneeling on one
knee.
Watching the wandered Dread draw
Her wild heart beating like honey bee
Within rose-all. the myths of old.
All. all the bright shapes of the age of
Popping the wonder worlds of poetry.
Through it l seemed in fancy TO behold
What other flower that. fashioned like a
star,
Draws its frail life from earth and braves
OF all the heavens, can suggest the
dreams
That this suggests, in whom no trace of
mar
Or soil exists: where stainless inno-
cence seems
Enshrined, and where, beyond our vision
far.
That inaccessible beauty which the
heart
Worships as truth and holiness and art
Is -symbolized; wherein embodied are
The things that make the souls i'm

OF Wide Interest.

Breed, Wis, July 1S-Special-
Charles Y. Peterson, Justice of the
Peace for Oconto Co., has delivered
a judgment that is of interest to the
whole United States. Put briefly, that
judgment is, "Dodd's Kidney Pills are
the best Kidney medicine on the mar
ket to-day"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason
for this judgment. He says: Last
winter l had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much.
L the morning l could hardly straight
en- my back. l did not know what it
was but an advertisement led me to
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking
one box can only say they have done
more for me than expected as | feel
as we'll now as ever l did before
Pain in the back is one of the first
symptoms of Kidney disease. If not
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills it may
develop into Bright's Disease, Dia-
betes, Rheumatism or some of the
other deadly forms of Kidney Disease.

Texas Fever in Oklahoma.

Perry, July 13.-TeXas fever is
playing havoc with the cattle in the
Otoe reservation and the adjoining
section of Noble county, five miles
north of Perry. Some time ago Texas
cattle were brought in and the pas
ture became infested with ticks. The
fever broke out a few days ago, and
the cattle of a dozen farmers are
dying by scores. Several farmers ad-
joining the reservation have been
using the reservation pasture. One
pasture leased and used by James
Walker has 1,600 head effected, and
the sheriff has them quarantined
through the order of the territorial
sanitary board. T. H. Province, a
farmer joining the reservation, had
twenty-five head in the infected pas
ture and when they commenced dy-
ing he drove them back home, across
the line, scattering the ticks among
all his neighbors. He will be prose
cuted for violating the quarantine
laws. The reservation line is also
the quarantine line, and cattle cross
irg are required to be inspected.
Stock Inspector Hahn is investigat-
ing the matter.

HERO OF TRAASVAAL DEAD.
His Death Causes Widespread Regret
For The Ex-pEesidenf.

Clarens, Switzerland, July To-
Paul Kruger, former president of the
Transvaal republic, died from pneu-
monia and supervening heart weak
ness. His daughter and son-in-law
were with him at the time of his
death. He had been out once since
his arrival here at the beginning of
last month.
The ex-president's body was en-
balmed and the remains will be placed
in vault pending funeral arrange
ments. Application will be made to
the British government for authority
to transport the remains to the Trans
vaal. In the meantime they will be
temporarily inferred here.
Paris.-The death of the former
president of the Transvaal, Paul Kru-
ger, at Clarens, Switzerland, aroused
widespread regret, owing to French
sympathy for the Boer cause and per-
sonal admiration for the ex-president
When he recently left Mentone his
health was gradually failing through
old age, constitutional disorders and
throat trouble, which threatened to
extend to the lungs.
