Thought She Couldn,t Live.

Moravia, N. Y, June 6.-Mr. Benja-
min Wilson, highly respected resi-
dent of this place, came very nearly
losing his wife, and now that she Is
cured and restored to good health his
gratitude knows no bounds. lie says:
"My wife has suffered everything
with Sugar Diabetes. She has been
sick four years. She doctored with
two good doctors, but kept growing
worse. The doctors said she could not
live. She failed from 200 pounds
down to 100 pounds. This was her
weight when she began to use Dodds
Kidney Pills, and now she weighs 190
is well and feeling stronger every day.
"She used to have rheumatism SO
bad that it would raise great bumps
all over her body, and this Is all gone,
too.
~Dodds Kidney Pills are a God-scnd
to those who suffer as my wife did.
They are all that saved her. We can't
praise them enough"

by boy who was searching for stray
COW. The front teeth were missing. His

killed and the leader of the moonshiners
MORALLY wounded The responsibility
for the whole affair was placed upon the
Shoulders of Edward Wentz by the
moonshiners. He was warned by friends
that his life was in imminent danger.
Oct. Ii last he started out for ride
on horseback, and that was the last

at the thought of what she had nerved

Il conscientiousness which results in
something like that system Of honor

official wrong, and themselves commit
slight and not too conspicuous irregu-
larihes, or give support for selfish rea-
sons to venal candidates for office.
