A Sure Protection.

Barton, N. Oak, May 9th.-Many
cases are being published of how dis
eases have been cured and lives saved
by Dodd's Kidney Pills, but there is
a family in this place who use this
remedy as protection against the
coming on of diseases and with excel
lent results.
Mr.. w. A. Moffet says: I'VE have
no very serious Illness or complaint
for we always use Dodd's Kidney Pills
the very moment we feel the least
symptom of sickness and they soon
put us right. II we have a touch of
lame back or think the kidneys are
not right, we take a few Dodds Kid
ney Pills and the symptoms are soon
all gone.
My brother had diabetes and the
doctor told him he could not live until
spring. | got some Dodd's Kidney
Pills for him. and although that was
several years ago, he has lived
through all the winters and springs
since and is still living. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills are wonderful medicine"

A New Ornament

The piquet is the name given to the
spruce little bunch of flowers or small
fruit which is somewhat stif1y tied
up, to stand sentinel on the little
spring walking hats. The piquet is
usually placed to the left OF front:
but as there are left-handed and right
handed people, 80 there are women or
girls to whom hat trimmings are most
becoming when poised at the right
side than on the left. In such a case
the piquet of ladys slippers, stocks
or foxgloves may be mentioned to
the right of the front. besides the
crown. The piquet stands erect and
is supposed to be something of an al
grette or pompon made of flowers,
instead of feathers.
