Fight a Duel.

Waverly, w. Va, April 11-Thomas
Engle, a prominent attorney of Mid
dlebrOne and a recent candidate for
prosecuting attorney of Tyler county,
and Constable William Yost, of this
city, are both thought to have been
fatally injured in a duef late Sunday
night. Engle suffered from mental
trouble and was taken some weeks
ago to "a sanitarium at Marietta, o.
Friday night he escaped and after a
fierce fight with Toll Collector Har-
ness he crossed the Ohio river on the
Marietta bridge. Saturday night he
appeared at the railroad station here
with knife which he f1ourished and
threatened to cut every person who
came within his reach. He closed and
locked the door and Constable Yost
broke It down. Engle stabbed him i'll
the side and started to run, but was
brought down with a bullet from
YOst's revolver, which entered his
head. He was taken to a hospital in
ParlSersburg. Both will probably die.

The Doctors Failed.

Kilgore, O., April ia rather re-
markable case has just come to light in
this place. Mr.. John I. Riegle had been
suffering for some time with an aggra--
waited form of Kidney disease which had
caused him great deal of discomfort.
He tried the treatment of several doc
tors, but did not get any better. At last
he CHANGED to read an advertisement of
Dodd's Kidney Pills, a remedy which has
been making many wonderful cures, and
he bought some at once and began to use
them. He says of the result:
'Dodd's Kidney Pills Go just what they
are advertised to do. l can praise them
for the good they have done for me.
They cured me completely after the doe
tors had faded, and l wish that every
poor sufferer could hear of them, for /
know they will cure Kidney trouble"
There seems to be no case of Kidney
Trouble, rheumatism or Backache that
Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure per-
fectly and permanently.
