A PhxslcIan.s Statement.

Yorktown. Ark, Jan. 11.-Leland
Williamson. III. D., one of our cleverest
physicians. has made n statement, en-
dorsing Dodd's Kidney Pills and say
ing that he uses them in his daily prac-
tice in preference to any other Kidney
medicine. His statement has created
profound sensation, as It is some
what unusua. for a physician to pub
licly endorse anything in the shape of
a patent medicine. DIR. Williamson
says.
After twenty years practice in a
sickly apd malarious country have
come to the conclusion that 1t is al
ways best to use the remedy that will
relieve and care my patients, whether
ethical or not.
II have used Dodd's Kidney Pills
with uniform success in the various
forms of Kidney Disease. Pain in the
Back. Gout, Rheumatism, Infiamma-
tion and Congestion of the Kidneys
and all kindred diseases; ! always pre-
scribe Dodd's Kidney Pills in such
cases and can testify that they in
variably restore the Kidneys to their
normal state and thereby relieve the
blood of accumulated poisons, produc-
ing prompt and effective cures"

Plumber Hunting Pointers.

One morning man wanted to sec
his plumber. and when he reached the
plumbers place he found his man had
moved and that it was now some other
persons place. He saw this without
crossing the street, and passed on to
the shoe store for call. then when
he got to the corner he called to learn
about the plumbers new location. ard
was told that 1t was in the center Of
the square. SO back he went.
BY the shoe store he entered a
plumbing shop and found it the wrong
one. On back he walked and found
HIS man opposite the old place. Will,
he was facing where the plumber was
his back saw where the plumber is.
Now this mans back had no eyes,
so the mans legs had to travel to
make cup for the deficiency. Fore
thought is the name of the eyes that
help the owner to see in every direc-
ton.

We are not the only
ones on earth to see
blue days and obstruc-
tionS.

Whether you and I are really bene-
fitted or not by hearing about the trou.
bles OF others is debatable subject.
Simply to hear about them is not very
helpful. as | see 1t. but TO hear how
others proflted by blue days and sur.
mounted obstructions surely is useful.
Every day in every community there
are those who have blue days and in.
vest them wisely, also those who see OBJ.
structions and either go around. over
or under them or IL they meet the OBJ
structions the distractions get the
worst of the encounter. A little OBJ
servation or investigation will prove
this statement to be true.
The minute we see that blue days
are subjective rather than objective
we get close TO preventing their com
ing on us. You had your most en-
Joyable days during the most dismal
weather. and why? Because the sun
was shining Inside of you and when
that happens external things do not
amount 10 so very much.
Notice how nature leads children to
seek. and also built distractions In or
der to get exercise in overcoming
them. A few minutes ago | saw a
three year old trying to get broken
tricycle. up n stairway in the most DIFF
flcult way in order to do it that way
and unconsciously to be ready to 40
something difficult later on when un.
expectedly confronted.
We should guard against hothouse
protection and too easy paths in early
life. A young attorney told me about
one elderly man who had had n pro-
tected position for years and then
seemed to go TO pieces before n coil-
mon case OF punched trouble. while
another elderly man. lawyer. wl.o

life and conquered SO many times

him in battle before judges. II us
can gain muscle by using dumb ber,
why can not we gain mind by using
every day one or two perplexities as
them in artificial shape in order to
have them to contend with?
You have heard about not crossing
the bridge till you came to II. but
have you heard that some claim that
nine-tenths of the trouble in this
world is imaginary? II you think
there are too many distractions in
your path you can be sure that some
% them are to melt before you get to
them. Plan ahead, live n day at {.
time, but live 1t with all your might.

American Precious Stones.

The United States can supply all
the wants of its people for coal. iron.
copper. petroleum. and all the useful
minerals; gold and silver also are
found in generous quantities; but of
precious stones, the diamond, the
ruby, the emerald, the topaz, etc, it
has practically none. except what 1t
has bought abroad, says the National
Geographic Magazine. In 1902 we
paid s25,000,O00 to foreign countries
for precious stones that we imported.
while during that year precious stones
of the value of only s33s,oO0 were
found within our border. These were
principally sapphires from Montana,
turquoises from New Mexico. Arizona,
Nevada and California, and tourma-
lines and chrysoprases from Califor-
MIA.

One Of the remarkable industries OF
Paraguay is the preparation of es-

ruled that secluded country, imported
orange seeds and planted groves,
which have now become immense for
ests. filled with small establishments
for extracting the essence. which is
exported TO Francs and the United
States for use in soap and perfumery
making. It is also employed by the
natives in Paraguay as healing oint.

Food That Carries One Along.

It's nice to know of food that not
only tastes delicious but that puts the
snap and go into one and supplies
staying power for the day.
A woman says: II have taken
enough medicine in my time to fur
nish a drug store, but in later and
wiser years l have taken none but
have depended, for the health | now
enjoy, on suitable and sustaining
food of which l keep on hand a tested
variety, plain but nourishing.
"Of these my main dependence is
Grape-Nuts. especially If | have be-
fore me a day Of unusual effort eth
er mental or physical. In this case
fortify myself the first thing in the
morning with about 4 teaspoonfuls
of Grape-Nuts moistened with cream
and not much else for breakfast and
the amount of work 1 can then carry
through successfully without fatigue
or exhaustion is wonder to those
about me and even to myself.
'Grape-Nuts food is certainly a
wonderful strengthener and is not a
stimulant, for there is no reaction aft
erwards. but it is sustaining and

WHY THE PoRTERHousE STEAK
suoculent Morsei Had Its Origin in
Accident.


In the old coaching days there was
a tavern in New York. kept by man
named Porter. famous for its steaks.
TO which house one Saturday night
there arrived traveller who called for
a steak. Not one was left, but the
hungry traveller called and called
again for steak. Finally the inn
keeper in his distress took from his
larder a large piece of .sirloin. put
there for roasting. and cut from It a
piece to broil. 1t was found so de-
licious that the same piece was often
called for after that and was chris
tened after the house and its proprie-
tor. Porter House Steak" Up to this
time this piece of meat had been
used for roasting only and the dis
covery of its virtues for broiling may
be said to have been quite accidental.
