Reward for witty Reply.

The near approach OF the Vincent
clubs annual show, for which the
members are working all the harder
this year so that the glory and pro
ceeds will be all the greater. recalls a
pleasant anecdote OF one of Bostons
gifted and beautiful young ladies',
Miss Gordon Walker, says the Boston
Journal. Not long ago az the Somer-
set one OF those charity fairs took
place. and at this gathering OF wit,
fashion and elegance Miss Walker was
one Of the ladies who were reaping
contributions in a fascinating way
which made a refusal impossible; an
unconditional surrender being the
only alternative from the battery OF
bright eyes.
A leading fnancler in passing Miss
Walker placed SEQ bill on her book.
Saying: This Is an appreciation OF
youth and beauty"
Quick as a flash the witty Boston
girl again held out the book and
said: "And now in appreciation OF
the poor in the hospital, sir"
Her clevorness was rewarded with
another equally large contribution.

The Doctors Failed.

KIlgore, o.. April IA rather re-
markable case has just come to light
In this place. Mr.. John L. Riegle
had been suffering for some time with
an aggravated form OF Kidney dis
case which had caused him great
deal OF discomfort.
He tried the treatmen, Of several
doctors, but did not get any better.
AT last he CHANGED TO read an adver-
tisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills, a
remedy which has been making many
wonderful cures. and he bought some
ut once and began TO use them. lie
says of the result:
"Dodds Kidney Pills do just what
they are advertised to do. can
praise them for the good they have
done for me. They cured me com.
pletely after the doctors had failed
and | wish that every poor sufferer
could hear OF them, for I know they
will cure Kidney trouble"
There seems TO be no case Of Kid
ney Trouble, rheumatism or Back
ache that Dodd's Kidney pills will
not cure perfectly and permanently.

Joaquin Miller's friends Of a meeting
between the Poet OF the Sierras" and
Mrs. Langtry. ohe was stopping at
the home OF mutual friend in San
Francisco. who was anxious to bring
the two celebrities together Invita-

the guests assembled, all but the poet
himself. At last he was discerned APP

alls. the red flannel shirt which he az
fects. and the immense gray sombrero
which he invariably wears, and which
he has to have made to order. The
servant opened the door The poet
entered, but without removing his hat.
This he kept on until directly in front
OF Mrr. Langtry. who stood at her
hostess side. Then with courtly
gesture he doffed his hat, fiinging

beauty's feet, accompanying the action
with the words, california showers
