st. Paul Expects That Much from Gross
EARNINGS LaN.

st. Paul expects soon to derive rev
enue Of about 100000 annually thru the
gross earnings tax provisions in the city
charter. The st. Paul Gas Light company
will begin paying 900 or more on Jan.
/, 1907, but 1t is believed that the street
railway company and the telephone COM
panies will be brought in line before that.
The council and the corporation attorney
are already engaged in a struggle with the
street railway company This company Is
due to contribute about $4,000 when the
time comes. It is a question whether the
extensions made by the telephone COM
panles have not already placed them under
the provisions Of the gross earnings tax
provision. Mayor Robert A. Smith thinks
so and announces that he will refuse to sign
any more resolutions for extensions until
this question has been determined. The
telephone companies are liable for over
s55.0 900 under the charter.

A " ,nderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. OAK, March 28.-Quite .
sensation has been created here by tho
publication Of the story of G.. W. Gray,
who after special treatment for three
months was PROSTATE and helpless and
given up to die with Btight's Disease.
Bright's Disease has always been consid.
cred incurapie, but.-evidently from the
story told by Mr.. Gray, there is remedy
which will cure it, even in the most ad.
vanced stages. This is what he says:
II was helpless as little babe: My
wife and searched everything and read
everything we could find about Brighta
Disease, hoping that would be able to
find remedy: After many failures my
wife insisted that 1 should try Dodd's
Kidney Pills. l praise God for the day
when decided to do so, for this remedy
met every phase Of my case and in =
short time ! was able to get out of bed,
and after few weeks treatment was a
strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved my life."
A remedy that will cure Bright's Disease
will cure any lesser Kidney Disease.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the
most wonderful discovery which modern
medical research has given to the world.

We often fail to realiz, how much
more sensitive he is to changes of
temperature than we are, and are no;
careful enough to guard against them.
The room in which he stays should be
kept as near the same temperature as
possible, and well ventilated, but avoid
keeping him in a draft or he will lie
apt to have the collie. A healthy baby,
that has not been taught bad habits,
will be happy and codtented in his crib
the greater part of the day. allowing
the mother time to attend to other
duties, or to rest. He does not need
to be held in your arms all the time,
and he never needs to be carried about
to amuse him. Few mothers are strong
enough for that task, and they should
never begin it. A great deal of worry
and many cross spells might be saved
If the mother would begin by having
regular hours for feeding and bathing
the baby. The bath should never be
neglected, for so much of his comfort
depends upon it that he will be rest
less and cross without it. Have the
room warm and the water just warm
enough for comfort. Get the bath tub
in place, with towels and clean clothes

will be at hand when needed. Bathc

Womans Clubs)
for it was he who urged and encour-
aged his wife to go into club life and
cheered her through her first moments
of stage fright and was so proud and
pleased at the general recognition of
her brilliancy and graciousness and
ability that she couldn't help being
pleased and proud with him.
Speaking of her travels-and even
as she spoke Mrs. Denison was dressed
and ready to go to a big local club re-
ception as guest of honor'-she said
to Brooklyn Eagle reporter: Il had
perfectly delightful trip in every
way. 1t seemed to me that each town
outdid the last-I had visited in it's well
come. And those western club women!
They are such forceful, brainy, prac-
teal creatures. They don't seem to
waste so much time on unimportant de-
tails, but get right down to the meat
Of the matter. suppose that in our
eastern cities our various reforms and
charities and public works are so we'll
organized, so crystallized that there is
not so much for the clubs to do. But
out west the women's clubs are an &C.
tive living public force, doing things
that ought to be done, accomplishing
things that need accomplishing. And
their hospitality is not mere civility;
their politeness seems to be a deep
seated courtesy that springs from. real
kindness.
Il think any one who had been on
my recent trip with me would have
realized the uses of women's clubs.
Possibly occasionally they would have
realized their abuses, too. But in the
main they do stimulate and develop.
And the club woman is not necessarily.
masculine, domineering. unwomanly
creature. She can overdo it, of course,
and sometimes clubs seem to become
an obsession with women. But those
are the women who are naturally ILL
balanced; II it wasn't clubs it would
be something else. OF course, a whole
lot of them take themselves with ire
mendous seriousness and are awfully
funny. -5'
