Upward Bound in Ophir.

A big upward bound in price Of On
hir shares between the Hand IL: i5
sessions of the San Francisco stock
exchange board this morning caused
a sensation among local operators and
various theories were advanced to &C
count for it. Stree rumors were cur
rent that high grade ore had again
been found in advancing the 1900 and
1000 levels, northeast drift, but no con
firmation of them was obtainable at
local headquarters. The sudden uphea
val affected all the northend stocks
and the bear element will have an
uneasy time between now and Monday
in rustling to fill with well founded
fear that a further advance will be
noted in Mondays board sessions

The FAMILY IN JaDa II.

There Is still the attitude Of mas
ter and subordinate in the very Ian.
guage in which husband and wife OF
a well-regulated japanese family adj
dress each other. In speaking to his
wife the husband uses her first name
with more or less of a command In
connection with what he has to say,
while In his wife's communications to
him, "Sir." or my husband" is re.
quired with the tone and manner she
would use to her elders. The good
wife is always dressed before her hus.
band in the morning. Then. immacu-
late in attire and smiling in counte-
nance, she must. If there are not the
necessary servants, perform the part OF
valet. First she brings tray with
pipe. tobacco and matches; then later
still smiling. cup Of tea and the
morning paper to solace her lord till
time for him to dress for breakfast
At his toilet she also assists, and when
breakfast is over she speeds him with
more smiles, on his way to office OF
shop, her good-bys said with low cour
tesy and pleasant words.

The Reason WHY.

Drummond, Wis, Sept. -(Spe-
ciaD-Wholef families in Bayfie coun-
ty are singing the praises of Dodd' s
Kidney Pills and the reason why is
given in experiences such as that of
Mr.. T. T. Void, well-known citizen
here.
81 had such pains in my back that
l did not know what to do" says Mr..
Void, "and as came across an adj
vertisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills l
sent for box. That one box relieved
ME of all my pains. My wife also
used them and found them just what
she needed. recommend Dodd's Kid
ney Pills as a sure cure for Backac he
and other Kidney Troubles"
Backache is one CT the earliest symp-
toms CT Kidney Disease. Dodd's Kid

nently and prevent it developing into
Rheumatism, Dropsy, Diabetes or
