Mr.. B. L. Skrivseth Of this place has
been added to the steadily growing fol-
lowing that Dodd's Kidney Pills have
in this part of the country.
Mr.. Skrivseth gives two reasons for
his faith in the Great American Kid
ney Cure. The first is that they cured
his wife and the second is that they
cured himself.
II must say" says Mr.. Skrivseth,
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for Kidney Trouble / ever
knew. My wife had Kidney Disease
for years and she tried all kinds Of
medicine from doctors but it did not
help her any. An advertisement led
her to try Dodds Kidney Pills. The
first box helped her so much that she
took eight boxes more and now she is
cured.
II also took three boxes myself and
they made me feel better and stronger
in every way"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have never yet
failed to cure any kidney disease from
Backache to Rheumatism, Diabetes or
Bright's Disease.

They are all life size and are remark
ably we'll executed. Among them are
elephants, tigers and monkeys, whose
sculptors must have secured their
models long distance from Shensi.

The stone animals stand for the Bud

worshiped as sacred and are supposed.

life. 1t is to prevent them from es-
Gaping and running away from their
worshipers that the cages have wooden

about 10000 acres. This has no ref

THE BURR0 SERVfD AS GUIDE.

NNN|S~~~~~~~0~~S~~N
The burro, veritable ship of the
Western desert, will live longer with
out water and scent it farther than
any other known animal except the
camel. AS an example of the keen
scent of the burro for water, Arthur
]. Burdick relates, in The Mystic
Mid-RegiOn," the experience of two
prOspectors named Peterson and KEEL
ley. A few years ago they attempted
to cross the Great Mohave Desert on
foot with a burro to carry their sup
plies.
In passing from oasis to oasis they
lost their way, and the supply of wa
ter became exhausted. To be lost in
the desert is terrible thing, and anx-
iety, coupled with torturing thirst and
the intense heat, drove Peterson in
sane. He left his companion and fled,
shrieking, across the plain Kelley
picketed the burro and went after
Peterson to bring him back, but was
unable to overtake him.
He returned to the trail to find his
burrO had broken his tether and was
moving across the desert at leisurely
pace. lie followed, but the animal was
so far In the lead and he was so eX-
hausted from his efforts to overtake
Peterson that he could not come up
with the burro.
Night came upon him and it soon
became SO dark that he could not dis
tfnguish the burro. He had to fol-
low by the footprints in the sand.
When it became too dark to distinguish
the footprints, Kelly stin staggered on
in sheer desperation.
By and by his heart gave a great
thrOb. Before him, outlined against
the sky and seemingly suspended in
the air, was a form which he knew
to be either his burro or an appari-
ton. He hurried forward, and To-!
standing upon a sharp rise Of ground
and facing him was his lost burrO
The burro seemed to awaiting him,
for when he came up the animal turn
ed and led the way down the incline
to spring of living water.
Kelley gave a shout of joy and
plunged bodily into the spring. After
he had soaked his parched skin and
mcsstened his lips and throat, he
crawled out and went to his burro,
which was browsing upon the green
herbs growing about the place. Throw
ing his arms about the neck of the
animal, he gave the creature a hearty
hug and a kiss. If this mark of affec-
ton surprised or touched the burro, he
made no sign.
When Kelley had taken a fresh sup
ply of water he retraced his steps to
the point where the burro had broken
away. It was fully ten miles There
is no doubt but the animal had scent
ed the water all that distance, and
eagerness to get to it had led the burro
to strain at it's fastcnings till they
broke.
Poor Peterson did not survive. Kel-
ley found his body the next morning
four or five miles from the point where
he had left the TRAIL

High PeWs.

During the reign Of William and
Mary in England worthy bishop com
planned to the latter that the ladies
of the court were wont to fix their
eyes ON their neighbors rather than on
him during his discourses. 1t appar-
emily never occurred to the divine that
the fault might lie in the sermons
themselves. By consent Of the queen
high pews were introduced to prevent
wandering eyes. "As for the young
ladies for whose spiritual welfare they
were devised" says writer, their
indignation was only surpassed by the
rage of their admirers" From that
time high pews were commonly placed
in churches.

Popular Food Fanacies.

1t is doubtful whether any given
food in common use contains cOnstitu-
ents which have selective action, so
to speak, or the property of minister
ing to one part Of the body more than
another. AS rule, when food is as
sumed to have specific reparative
properties-as, for example, a social
ed brain or nerve foCl-the fact really
Is that such food is easily and quickly
assimi1ated to the body's general adj
vantage; in a word, in such case re-
pair quickly overtakes waste and a
real purposeful nutrition and restora-
ton are accomplished. A high medi-
cal authority feels called upon to once
more correct the erroneous popular
impression that fish food ministers
particularly to the brain, because it
contains phosphorus. AS a matter of
fact, fish does not contain more phOs-
phOrus than do the ordinary meat
foods, and it certainly does not con-
tain it in free state. The notion that
fish contains phosphorus had no doubt
it's origin in the glowing phosphores-
cence Of fish in the dark. This is who'll
ly due to heterogeneous The be-
lief, therefore, that fish is brain food
is just about as reasonable as the idea
that because soup is thick and gela-
tinous ''it will stick to the ribs Fish,

1.-THE sensation of shooting at man
Is peculiar, and, l believe, is less de-
sirable than that of being shot at"
said q man who has experienced both
in the New Orleans Times Democrat.
"Just how to trace the line of demar-
cation | will leave for any man who
wishes to make an actual experiment.
The distinction is q little fine, II |
mistake not, but I know full we'll that
there is distinction as we'll as a diff
ference in the feelings of the man
who is fired on and the man who has
fired on some other man. The distinct
and separate ideas are presented to
begin with. The man fired on thinks
OF the possible harm in the way Of
physical pain and injury, probable
death, might have come upon him.
The man who has shot at another
man thinks of the suffering he might
have inflicted, of his own arrest and
or the wounded or dying man, Of
weeping relatives, Of his own dear
ones lamenting his troubles and of the
possible consequences of the act. 1t
is remarkable with what rapidity the
mind takes pictures of the future un-

my own experience has taught me
that / had rather be shot at and miss
ed than to shoot at another fellow and
miss him, because the shock, the
fright, the trembling and agony and
the nervous agitation are immeasur-
ably more intense and trying in the lat

was shot at three times. The instant
the pistol flashed felt sort of calm

I stood still, resigned to my fate. For
tunately was not hit. The expression
Of my face hardly changed, while my
adversary was white and trembling.
After he was led away, almost too
weak from agitation to walk, I turned
calmly and invited few friends to
take a drink. I felt sort of sympa.
thy for my enemy. On another occa-
sion I was SO Infatuated that I drew
a pistol and fired into crowd, not
caring who might be hit. Let me tell
you that the report of my pistol took

We have millionaires who make the

some of that which society has given
toward their fortunes. Too often in
these socialistic times their benefac-

is always q sufficient number ready to
take real advantage of the opportuni-
ties thus afforded, and there is no
good reason to believe that. in the
