Could Get No Rest.

Freeborn, MIMI, October II (Spe.
cial)-Mr. R. K. Coward, well.known
man here is rejoicing in the relief
from suffering he has obtained
through using Dodd's Kidney FILLS.
His experience is well worth repeating
as 1t should point the road to health
to many another in a similar condi.
ton.
Il had an aggravating case Of Kid.
ney Trouble" says Mr.. Coward, that
gave me no rest day or night but
using few boxes Of Dodd's Kidney
Pills put new life in me and feel like
new man.
Il am happy to state have received
great and wonderful benefit from
Dodd's Kidney Pills. I would heartily
recommend all sufferers from Kidney
Trouble to give Dodd's Kidney Pills a
fair trial as have every reason to be-
lieve it would never be regretted"
Dodd's Kidney Pills make you feel
like new man or woman because
they cure the kidneys. Cured kidneys
mean pure blood and pure blood
means bounding health and energy in
every part of the body.

apple tree Of fine quality but how to
develop our work and turn the apple
tree into a productive and profitable
tree was another question.
It needed sunshine and the kind of
sunshine that is spread by the news.
papers and magazines. It is an abso-
lutte certainty that without the pub.
licity thus given--in other words, the
sunshine-the business never would
have developed.
You have seen to-day factory build
ings-thirteen or fourteen in number
covering many acres Of ground, en-
ploying hundreds of workpeople, pro-
ducing food and drink in an aggregate
of four million packages per month,
which goes to every civilized country
on the globe, and yet the entire enter
prise Is less than years old. We
have found it necessary, inasmuch as
the tree has grown and the apples ma
tured by hard work and sunshine, to
continue the work and the sunshine
day In and day out, month in and
month out, the sunshine appropriation
amounting to approximately million
dollars year for advertising, for ex-
perience teaches that II you mature
the tree under strong sunshine, and
bring 1t up to q thrifty and healthful
state where 1t produces profitable -ap-
pies, you Get not withdraw that sun
shine else the tree will gradually die.

Records Of Amazons in the Annals Of

There Is scarcely a country with.
out its women warriors, who for love
Of man or love of country have dis.
guised their sex and fought side by
side with men. England Is proud of
the name and record of Phoebe Hes.
sci. to whom monument has lately
been erected at Brighton.
Christian Cavenagh was another

America has a long list of Amazons
beginning with Mrs. Seelye, who
served throughout the civil war as
common soldier, field nurse and

TALK ON ADVERTISING


Some thoughtful man might say that
If what you manufacture has merit,
once you get trade established PEG
pie will continue to purchase, even If
the advertising Is stopped, but to act
on that conclusion would be fata
mistake, for there are always bright
men on the lookout to steal your ap
pies, and II you give them the chance
they will come in and take the fruit,
sure. Right here let US drive NAH
not a single nail but a forty penny
spike. Your article must have merit
far and away beyond the ordinary un.
advertised thing. It should be tho
very best that human intelligence and
ingenuity can produce. Then you have
a foundation to build upon that WIN
not slip out from under when the
building grows heavy. There are per
sons ignorant enough to believe that
a poor article can be advertised into
a success. 1t cannot and any one who
tries the experiment will pay heavily
for his experience. Critically examine
any we'll known and advertised article
that has been years on the market ana

TnIrty-two years ago the world saw
the first fruits of international arbi-
tration, in the award of the high COM
mission which settled the so-called
Alabama claims of the United States
against England.
The world has made strong adj
vance toward the settlement of inter-
national disputes by the judicial meth
DDS of arbitration since the days OF
the Alabama award.
Differences that before then plunged
nations into war are now considered,
as matter of course, fit subjects for
the deliberative methods of settlement
embraced by arbitration.
The high court which settled the
Alabama claims was the first of its
kind. The parties to the disputed
claims had long been subject to in
tensely bitter feelings of resentment
against each other. The United
States charged to England practically
all the damage done her shipping by
confederate ships in the civil war,
while England refused, until this COM
mission sat, to recognize the right of
any nation to question her methods of
maintaining her proclaimed neutral
ity.
Long and delicate diplomatic nego.
tiations were necessary to pave the
way, step by step, for the formation
OF the court which was to settle these
claims.
Even after the sessions began it
appeared for time as If they would
come to an abrupt and friutless end
ing.
After months of deliberation on the
part of the arbitrators a settlement
was reached, however, in which the
principal of international arbitration |
was imperishably perpetuated, while |
the United States government re-
ceived in settlement of its claims the
substantial sum of $15,500,0O0.

Helps Distinguished Husband.

The wife of Camille Flammarion,
the astronomer. never allows anyone
to cut her husbands hair but herself.
and she uses the shorn locks for pill
lows. Her home in Paris is full of
pillows stuffed with such clippings.
Telescopes, heliometers, sextants, as.
trolabes and other astronomical in.
struments are scattered all about
among them. The Flammarions were
married thirty years ago, taking their
bridal tour in balloon. In all the
time since then the wife has been a
veritable helpmeet to her husband.
She not only makes observations and
calculations, but measures the dis.
tances of stars for him. At the oh.
servatory Of Juvisy. which she helped
him establish, she made studies of the
planet Mars.

The sunshine that makes a business

The sunshine that makes business
plant grow is advertising.
Growing business nowadays is
something like growing an apple.tree.
You may select good seed, plant 1t in
good soil, water and work with it, but
the tree will not produce fruit until
another and most powerful, energiz.
ing and life-giving element is brought
to bear. You must have sunshine and
lots Of 1t. Can you expect to ripen
apples in the dark? Can you expect
to grow a profitable business plant
nowadays without the sunshine of pub
lie favor produced by advertising?
This Postum plant is good illus.
tration Of that law. 1t seems but a
short time ago when I put few men
at work in the carriage house of the
harm you have seen to-day, where we
began making Postum coffee.

years ago, was a new kind of apple
seed and it was not altogether certain
how the people would like the apples.

ARE MOON cRATERs CORAL,
Astronomers Have Another Question
Over Which They Can Dispute.

Astronomers Have Another Question
Over Which They Can Dispute.
Everybody who has seen a chart a:
the moon as drawn by astronomers
knows of the curious, irregular, rag.
ged rings which have been called
moon craters" for many years.
Now astronomers have raised the
question whether or not they really
are the craters Of extinct volcanoes
as has been supposed for so long.
One Of them asks:
How would the ocean bottoms of
the earth appear to man in the moon
II all our seas were to disappear?"
Exactly as the moon craters look
to u.s." is the answer.
So now some Of the astronomers
are interested in the attempts to
prove that the moons curious surface
is not at all volcanic, and that the
'icraters" are nothing more or less
than coral reefs and the remains of
other .coral.like structures which have
been left high and dry by the evap.
grafton Of lunar oceans.

SAFEST FOOD

In Any Time of Trouble Is Grape-Nuts.
Food to rebuild the strength and
that is pre-digested must be selected
when one is convalescent. At this
time there is nothing so valuable as
Grape-Nuts, for the reason that this
food is all nourishment and is also all
digestible nourishment. A woman who
used 1t says:
Some time ago was very i'll with
typhoid fever, so Ill everyone thought
I would die, even myself 1t left me
so weak I could not properly digest
food OF any kind and also had much
bowel trouble which left me q weak.
helpless wreck.
Il needed nourishment as badly as
anyone could, but none of the tonics
helped me until finally tried Grape
Nuts food morning and evening. This
not only supplied food that thought
delicious as could be, but it also made
me perfectly we'll and strong again
so can do all my homework, sleep
well, can eat anything without any
trace of bowel trouble and for that
reason alone Grape-Nuts food is worth

REWARD FOR GOOD SERVICE.
k'nsaie's Earls Had Privilege Of BE-
Ing Covered Before klno.

Ing Covered Before King.
Paris has caught the habit of going
hatless and many stories connected
with hats and their history are re.
called. 1t was once counted a priv.
lege to walk, not bareheaded, but GOV.
cred. before king. The earls of
Kinsale had this dubious distinction
- reward for an old-time service.
Seven centuries ago Philip of France
summoned that cheerful hero. Eng.
lands King John, to mortal combat.
John thought he would rather not.
but offered De Courcey. earl of Kin.
sale, freedom from the dungeon where
he lay If he would take in hand the
commission. De Courcey, spelling
for a fight, agreed, and John and
Philip sat together to see somebody's
head cracked. The French champion
cried of on seeing the size Of the
Englishman, whereupon the untried
conQueror playfully stuck his helmet
upon q post Of oak and drove his
sword through it and so deep into
the wood that none save himself could
withdraw it. He had purchased his
freedom and his reward he heard
from his magnanimous sovereign's
Hips: "Thou art a pleasant companion

NEW USE FOR THE CAMERA.
Fitting It Clothes by TaiIors Done
With Aid of Pictures,

A new method of measuring for tail
ors has been patented in Paris, &C.
cording to the St. James Gazette. The
person to be measured is placed be-
fore a camera, and between them Is
introduced network that is photo
graphed at the same time and serves
as standard. Certain articles are
necessary to obtain complete result;
thus, the armpits, ETC., must be indi-
Gated by objects visible from without;
and, finally, several views must be
taken from various standpoints. The
subject is also fitted with a sort of
harness which indicates points of
comparison. These points may, how
ever, be marked directly on the per.
son instead. The relative positions
OF the camera, the network and the
subject are carefully adjusted so that
the subject appears always on the
same scale, and then the photograph
Is taken from the various necessary
standpOints.
