An Honest Opinion.

Mineral, Idaho, Nov 14.-(SpeciaI.)
That sure cure has been discovered
for those sciatic pains that make SO
many lives miserable, is the firm opin,
lon of Mr.. d. S. Colson. n well-known
resident Of this place, and he does not
hesitate to say that cure is Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. The reason Mr.. CoIson is so
firm in his opinion Is that he had those
terrible pains and Is cured. Speaking
OF the matter, he says:
Il am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots OF
good. l had awful pains in my hip so
l could hardly walk. Dodd's Kidney
Pills stopped 1t entirely. l think they
are grand medicine"
All Sciatic and Rheumatic pains are
caused by Uric Acid in the blood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy kid
neys and healthy kidneys strain all the
Uric Acid out of the blood With the
cause removed there can be no Rheu-
matiSm or Sciatica.

Mother called Bob and Roy from
The back yard, 'can we hare these two
pumpkins for lanterns"
"Oh, what large ones. Yes, boys, You
may have them. They are too big for
pies" answered Mrs. Phillips from the
doorway.
The boys continued their work of gath
ering pumpkins. and only one was found
TO match ''the twins" in size.
We'll make lantern tonight out of
this one, Bob. and save the twins till
Thanksgiving eve. Then we'll have some
fun," said Roy.

people down in the hollow. Hold it up

who lives there hit me with a SNOWFALL

"All right. Bob, we'll do it."

and Bob and Roy knew she would not
approve Of their unkind sport. They
quickly crossed the fields and walked
iown a hill into lonely. damp hollow.
Right before them stood a small, tumble
down house with feeble light shining
from one tiny window. The boys crept
to this side and crouched beneath it.
Just as Bob was about to raise the Ian
tern after he had lighted the candles
shild's voice asked anxiously:
Mother, aren't We going to have any
pumpkin pies or turkey or anything nice
On Thanksgiving? We had such lovely

thankful that We can't have any Thanks

There was a pane Of glass broken ont

waited to hesr the answer.

THANKSGIVING IN I7e5.
How Washington's Proclamation Diff
fered frar,, Thase of afer Daxs

How Washfngton's Proclamation Diff
fered from Those of Later Days.
Nowadays, the Thanksgiving proclama-
tion of the State and national executives
are brief compared to what they were in
the early days of our republic, says 4
writer in the Boston Herald. In the case
of the latter he doesn't foreshadow his
forthcoming annual message as was
somewhat the vogue in President Wash
ington's time. This is seen in the Thanks
giving proclamations issued by our great
and good first President in the early part
of the year 1895, in which he appointed
Feb. 19 as "a day of public thanksgiv-
ing and prayer" The Father of His
Country" was then 63 years Of age and
was serving his sixth year as President.
1t was a long document and covered
will advert very briefly to only three or
four which are peculiarly significant.
In the preamble he mentions, as the
first subject, demanding the public at
tention on this solemn occasion, our ex
emption from a foreign war" and next
proposes. as ian object of gratitude"
the increasing prospect of the continu-
ance of our exemptions from foreign
war" Which propositions evidently re-
late to the settlement, through special
envoy, John Jay, of our serious trou-
bles with Great Britain, growing out Of
the continued occupation by the British
of the western forts on Lake Erie, con-
trary to the treaty of 1888; and the seiz-
ure Of American vessels bound for
French ports by British ships and the
imprisonment of American seamen.
Another cause for thanksgiving, ac-
cording to the same high authority, Is
''the great degree of internal tranquility
we have enjoyed" To which is added
''Our cause for thankfulness for the re-
cent confirmation Of that tranquility by
the suppression Of an insurrection which
so wantonly threatened It."
And in another place the President re-
peats this idea, asking his people ''to
render tribute of praise and gratitude
to the Great Disposer OF all events, for
the seasonable control which has been
given in a spirit of disorder In the sup
preston OF the late insurrection." What
the President had in mind In this allu-
sion was the great whisky insurrection"
in Pennsylvania in 1874, caused by the
passage by Congress of acts imposing
duties upon spirits distilled and upon
stills. 1t was finally suppressed by Gov.
Lee Of Maryland. with 5000 troops,
acting under orders of the President

Mother! mother! we've got something
to tell you" called Bob. breathlessly.
Mrs. Phillips sat down and listened
while the boys shamefacedly told about
their intention of soaring the people in
the hollow, at which she looked very
grave. Then they excitedly told her their
plans.
"Take all cur chicken money, mother,
and give us piles of good things" said
Roy.
And if there isn't enough money you
can have some of our chickens to pay for
the stuff" added Bob.
| Mrs. Phillips entered gladly into the
scheme and promised to have everything
ready hy Thanksgiving eve. She allow
ed the boys to pay for part Of the feast,
as she thought it would be a good lesson
for them.
| The boys were much excited and early
on the appointed night brought in the
twin pumpkins, nicely cleaned inside, and
each with a small cap cut off at the top.
L: was a very important part Of the plan
| that the pumpkins should look as il just
carried from the field. Mrs. Phillips
carefully filled them with tarts, jellies.
| cakes, celery and delicious mince pies,
| great pat of fresh butter shaped like a
| pumpkin, two loaves of currant bread
| and a pair of chickens. The boys added
| big bag of oranges and a box Of candy
especially for Bessie. Then the pump
kins were so full that not another thing
could be crammed into them. Mr.. Phil
lips now appeared to assist with hearty
good will and brought a great basket of
potatoes, turnips, apples, and, last but
not least, huge turkey, all ready for
roasting. These things, together with
the pumpkins, were carried with much
smothered laughter to the door Of the
little old tumb mble-down house. The golden
balls filled with goodies held the place
of honor and were stationed directly be-
fore the door. The boys had the pleas
ure of kicking on the door and then diyed
into the darkness.
The door flew open and a young voice
called, Mother, oh. come and see these
immense pumpkins! And oh. there's a
turkey and a big basket of things"
The surprised little woman hurried to
the door and, after gazing at the gifts
in astonishment. said. Lets carry them
in l wonder who has been so kind to
usY"
They dragged the basket and pumpkins
into the house. and suddenly the boy
cried out, "Oh! oh! these big pumpkins
are full Of lovely things. Don't cry,
mother, dear. 1 know who left these
things. 1t was those Phillips boys, Bob
and Roy. I'm sure it was. because

could have those big pumpkins. Twins,
they called 'em. Tomorrow I'll 90 and

to bed. The last thing Bob said was,

forgiveness. And We'll be friends after
