I found they did me lots Of good. I

ed for Dodd's Kidney Pills. They said
there was no such pills. I told them
there was. They said they had the
best pills that were made and per-
suaded me to try a box of another
kind, not Dodd's. As I needed some
medicine, I bought a box, but they
did me no good, SO I went elsewhere
and got the real Dodd's Kidney Pills
and very soon was completely cured.

bies Texas Wildcat.
Lying peacefully in one corner OF
his cage in the National zoo in Wash
ington, watching visitors with his lit
tie beady, rat-like eyes, Is the newly
imported African serval, a member Of
the cat family. He is n of the first
seen in this country, and gets a lot Of
attention, both on this account ana
because of his grotesque appearance.
He resembles the Texas wild cat In
general contour and coloring, but his
markings are more distinct and regu-
lar, and his long. pointed ears r rot
tufted as are those Of his wildcat
brother. The serval has a dog-like
muzzle. which, combined with his
long. dropping whiskers. gives him .
decidedly Chinese cast OF counte-
nance. Although not personally beau
tiful. he seems to have a cheerful and
philosophical disposition, and PAGES

among his keepers as to whether, II
he chose, he could new, or howl, or
bark, for so far he hasn't uttered q
