This Is Miraculous.

Manhattan, Kans., March 14.-One
Of the strangest cases that has ever
been heard of in Riley Co. is that OF
the three-year-old daughter Of Mr.
Jonas Brubaker of this place.
Some time ago the little girl took
whooping cough, which was followed
by pneumonia. When the pneumonia
left her, she was taken down with
malaria fever with at times symptoms
of Spinal Meningitis.
The family doctor brought her safe
ly through these troubles, but after
the fever Brights Disease set in and
the doctors gave her up. Her father
tells the rest of the story:
I'VE began to give her Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and after she had taken
about three and half boxes, she was
entirely cured. Now she is well as
any child, running and playing as If
nothing had ever been the matter
with her. The doctors said she was
beyond the reach Of medicine. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved our lit
tie girls life, when she was so far
into the chronic stage Of Bright's
Disease that we thought nothing could
srve her."

THIN DIET.
No Nourlshment In Il.

IT'S not easy to keep up when cof-
fee has so ruined the stomach that
food won't digest
A Mo. woman says: II had been
an invalid for two years from stomach
trouble caused by coffee, got so bad |
couldn't digest food and for quite
while lived on milk and lime water
nothing but that-a glass Of milk
and lime water six times a day. In
this way l managed to live, but OF
course did not gain.
at was about months ago / be-
gan using Postum Food Coffee; did
not need the milk and lime water
after that, for I gained rapidly and
can now eat a good meal and drink
from / to cups Of Postum each meal
and feel fine.
Il would not go beck to coffee for
any reasonable pay. like Postum
better than coffee now and make Pos
tum by directions on box and 1t is
Just fine; never found better way to
make It than on box. Now this is all
true and you can easily prove it."
Name given by Postum Co, Battle
Greek, Mich.
Postum is a brew from field grains
with all the nourishment left in. 1t
makes red blood and rebuilds partic-
ularly well where coffee has done
damage as II does to nearly all who
drink IL
A 10 days trial Of Postum in place
of coffee works wonders. There's a
reason.

The monks who used to make Char
treuse and who were expelled from
France last year, are about to take
possession of the monastery Forneta,
in Spain, there to continue the manu-
facture Of the liquor which in France
brought them nearly 100000. The
name will have to be changed, how
ever, as "Chartreuse" is. the property
of the French government.

Mrs. H. A. Var Sickle, 81 9th Ave.

Genuine Roman Chariot.

The Graeco-Roman chariot in the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, New
York, one of the new exhibits, has
excited great interest among artists
and archaeologists. It's preservation
was due to the fact that it was buried
by the ashes of Vesuvius. Many other
treasures were found in the same
neighborhood, some of which Baron
Rothschild bought and presented to
the Louvre. The chariot in question
is two-wheeled and is perhaps the
rarest in the world.

1t is matter of history that the
Greek alphabet as we know it to-day
was introduced about $50 B. c. Pre-
vious to that time there were no less
than six alphabets in use in Greece,
and no man could consider himself
abreast of the times unless he was
master of the six.

The grating of fruit trees has to-

about the great beauties in those days
Tor If a woman was good looking
enough to endure one of those trying
exposures of the forehead she must
have been very handsome indeed
Nowadays when the hair is draped so
becomingly over the imperfections of
the brow all girls are pretty. Monoton-
ously SO, perhaps, for we often need
to have a famous beauty pointed out
to US, she looks so exactly like all
other women.
The soft. curly bang and the low
dropping pompadour are so much
more important aids to beauty than
rouge and powder that one cannot
but regard with wonder the many
fashions of hairdressing which have
dispensed with them entirely. The
Egyptians, Greeks and Romans had
extremely low foreheads by nature.
With the Greeks the hair grew well

VOTING DOWN IN GEORGIA
Outdoor Polling Place Where 100 Citi-
zens Register Their Choice.

An odd custom prevails in one OF
the remote and isolated counties of
northeast Georgia-Rabun, the county
that annually produces more illicit
whisky than any other like area in the
world. In certain precinct in this
county far removed from anything
like village even, and surrounded by
some of the toughest and grandest
scenery east of the Rockies, locality
is known as 1.-The law grounds"
1t is centrally located. to accommo-
date the scattered inhabitants, and for
upward of 100 years all cases of law
have been tried and all elections for
county, state and federal officers have
been held on these common grounds
If the weather is pleasant the meet
ings invariably take place in the open
air, otherwise an old building is oe-
cupied.
The writer happened to pass this
odd polling place about noon on the
presidential election day, November,
1900 Twelve voters we're present, re-
clining on the ground. A board. one
end of which rested upon log and
the other on a rock. served the clerk
for a table. while a hat was used as
a ballot box A gentleman informed
me that there were 100 voters in the
precinct. adding that it was customary
to count the ballots whenever anyone
desired to know how the different can
eidates stood-Leslie's Weekly.
