Cure to Stay Cured.

Wapello, Iowa, Oct. 10-(Special) ,
One of the most remarkable cures ever
recorded in Louisa County is that of
Mrs. Minnie Hart Of this place. Mrs.
Hart was in bed for eight months and
when she was able to sit up she was
all drawn up on one side and could
not walk across the room. Dodd's
Kidney Pills cured her. Speaking OF
her cure, Mrs. Hart says:
eyes, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after l was in bed for eight months
and know the cure was complete for
that was three years ago and I have
not been down since. In four weeks
from the time started taking them I
was able to make my garden. Nobody
can know how thankful am to be
cured or how much I feel l owe to
DOdd's Kidney Pills."
This case again points out how
much the general health depends on
the Kidneys. Cure the Kidneys with
Dodd's Kidney Pills and nine-tenths
Of the suffering the human family is
heir to will disappear.

THIS WOMAN KNOWS

MRS. De Long Finds that the Indescribable
Pains of Rheumatism Can be Cured
Through the Blood.
Mrs. e. NJ De Long, of No. 100 West
Broadway, Council Bluffs, Iowa, found
herself suddenly attacked by rheuma-
tism in the winter of 1896. She gave
the doctor a chance to help her, which
he failed to improve, and then she did
some thinking and experimenting of her
own. She was so successful that she
deems it her duty to tell the story of her
escape from suffering:
"My brother-in-law," she says, was
enthusiastic OH the subject of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills as a purifier Of the
blood, and when was suffering extreme
pains in the joints of my ankles, knees,
hips, wrists and elbows, and the doctor
was giving me no relief, l began to re-
feet that rheumatism is disease of
the blood and that, if DIR. Williams Pink
Pills are so good for the blood, they
must be good for rheumatism and worth
O trial.
II was in bed half the time, suffering
with pain that cannot be described to
one who has never had the disease. 1t
would concentrate sometimes in one set
Of joints. When it was in my feet I
could not walk, when it was i'll my ell
bows and wrists I could not even draw
the coverlets over my body. I had suf-
fered in this way for weeks before I be-
gan using DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Two weeks after began with them I
experienced relief and after I had taken
six boxes was entirely well. To make
sure continued to use them about two
weeks longer and then stopped alto
gether. For several years I have had no
reason to use them for myself, but I
have recommended them to others as an
excellent remedy"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills furnish the
blood with all the elements that are
needed to build up healthy tissue, strong
muscles and nerves, capable Of bearing
the strain that nature puts upon them,
They really make new blood and cure
all diseases arising from disorders Of the
blood or nerves, such as sciatica, neural
gia, partial paralysis, loco1notor ataxia,
St. Vitus' dance, nervous prostration,
an@mia and all forms of weakness in
either male or female. They are sold by
all druggists.

The Sun Bath.

When plants are sickly we put them
In the sunlight, water them, and nurse
them back to life Why not give oul
bodies the same care? Let the tired
worn out, nervous woman try SUI
treatment. Put on light, clean wrap
per, let the hair down, take an easy
chair, and go into the back yard and
sit in the sun for an hour. If you fall
asleep, so much the better Let the
perspiratien flow freely. After the SUI
bath go in and take bath, rubbing the
body briskly all over. Cool off away
from a draught; dress, and you will
feel like new woman in the best
sense. Take the baths often.

Life's Surperfiuous Things.

An English writer has been devOting
his attention to the elimination Of I'M
necessary things, and has succeeded in
presenting tentative list Of articles
which mankind does not need. Like
many other propagandistS Of new
cult he goes to extremes in certain
instances, but, on the whole, makes out
pretty good case. He holds, to be-
gin with, that the resident of a city
does not require a watch. He goes
SO far as to say that an umbrella is
not Indispensable, and cited Lord Bea-
consfeld, who never carried an um-
brella, as an ilustrious example, When
1t rained he took refuge under the UNI
brella Of the prettiest woman he could
see."
The silk hat is tabooed by this icon
oclast In his inventory of superfuous
things We find the flap that covers the
keyhole of the front door, which often
sadly interferes with the entrance OF
the belated, and perhaps bibulous,
householder. ct is redeemed from
absolute futility by it's power Of occa-
sional annoyance" He inquiries as to
the use Of the tassel on the new UNI
brella. Nobody in his senses wants a
tassel on an umbrella
Why are there two buttons, or even
one, on the sleeve of coat? The
writer took census of his buttons and
found that sixty Of them were unnec-
essary. He is particularly anxious as
to the two buttons behind on a frock
coat Taking a survey of the whole
human family, he finds that there are
/ 800, 100000 buttons worn, all of them
useless. No one has discovered the
necessity for fourteen or sixteen peck
cts concealed in mems clothes. This is
the limit of superfuity.-Ph Philadelphia

THE UNITED STATES WILL SOON
KNOCK AT THE DOORS OF CAM
ADA FOR WHEAT.
A Crop of 6O,OOO,OOO Bushels of Wheat
Will Be the Record of 1904.

Will Be the Record of 1904.
The results of the threshing in West.
ern Canada are not yet completed, but
from information at hand, it is safe to
say that the average per acre will be
reasonably high, and fair estimate
will place the total yield of wheat at
100000 bushels. At present prices
this will add to the wealth Of the farm
ers nearly $6O,000,0O0. Then think Of
the immense yield of oats and barley
and the large herds of cattle, for all Of
which good prices will be paid.
The following official telegram was
sent by Honorable Clifford Sifton,
Minister of the Interior, to Lord
Strathcona, High Commissioner for
Canada:
"Am now able to state definitely that
under conditions of unusual difficulty
in Northwest fair average crop OF
wheat Of good quality has been reaped
and is now secure from substantial
damage. The reports of injury by frost
and rust were grossly exaggerated. The
wheat of Manitoba and Northwest Ter
ritories will aggregate from fifty-five
to sixty million bushels. The quality is
good and the price is ranging around
one dollar per bushel."
Frank HI. Spearman, in the Saturday
Evening Post, says:
"When our first transcontinental
railroad was built, learned men at
tempted by isotherman demonstration
to prove that wheat could not profit
ably be grown north Of where the line
was projected; but the real granary of
the world lies up to 300 miles north of
the Canadian Pacific Railroad, and the
day is not definitely distant when the
United States will knock at the doors
of Canada for its bread. Railroad men
see such day; it may be hoped that
statesmen also will see it, and arrange
their reciprocities while they may do
so gracefully. Americans already have
swarmed into that far country, and to
degree have taken the American
wheat field with them. Despite the
fact that for years little Dakota sta.
ton on the st. Paul Road-Eureka-

est primary grain market in the world

Growth of European Population.

Few persons have any idea of the
extraordinary manner in which the
population of Europe has increased
during the last century. According to
statisticians this population has more
than doubled itself from 1880 to 1900.
To this increase the Latin nations Of
the west and southwest contributed
the least and the greatest growth was
in the east, where the people have
not yet become thoroughly saturated
with the ideas Of modern civilization.
