Seventy-five years of age but hale
and hearty is Mr.. Jerome X. Four
nier of this place, and to those who
ask the secret of his splendid health
he gives the good advice Use Dodd's
Kidney Pills"
When asked for his reason for so
strongly recommending the Great
American Kidney Remedy, Mr.. Four.
nier related the following experiences:
Il recommend Dodd's Kidney
Pills because they cured me of Dia-
betes. | suffered with my kidneys
for a long time and suffered terribly
from those Urinary Troubles that are
SO general among aged people.
Then | started to use Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and eight boxes of them
cured my kidneys, regulated my wa
ter and made me feel like a hearty
young man."
Dodd's Kidney Pills make the old
feel young because they make sound
kidneys. Sound kidneys mean health
and health is the other name for
youth.

That showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, ] raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is strong healthy baby and has

But, after all, we really have not lost
the amount of gold we seem to have.
declares the New York Press. While
we have sent in May SOS, OOO. 900 gold
10 France we received about $1,000 900
from Japan on the Pacific Coast. The
latter influx reduced our May net loss
TO 3l,O00,000. From January l TO
April 80 our net excess of gold imnorts
over exports was about $500. 900. The
country's actual net loss of gold by the
international movements. therefore
has been only 500 100000. In the
meantime we are adding to our sup
plies from domestic production an
average of SG.G00,O0O n month. and in
midsummer we shall receive from the
hlondike and Alaska an amount var
iously estimated by experts at from
S2o'OOOOo0 to $25,000,0O0. Our gold
shipments this spring have nearly
paid for the Panama Canal and have
llquidated the adverse total trade bal.
ance that may have accumulated from
earlier merchandise importations. we
have also paid for So. 600 600 japanese
bonds subscribed for here and a few
millions of subscriptions to the new
Russian loan. But here is an import
ant point: Tie demand for the ia.
panese bonds was so great and urgent
in London that conservative bankers
estimate that we have virtually re-sold |
abroad nearly all of this issue awarded
to us. That tends to re-establish our
foreign supply Of credits. Our April
foreign merchandise balance proved
by the Government figures to be much
more favorable than had been eI
pscted.
