Founder of German East Africa.

At an international geographical
congress meeting DR.. Joachim Graf
Won Pfeil un Klein Ellguth, a noted
German explorer, stated that he and
two companions, while travelling in
East Africa in 1884, seized all that
territory in the name of Germany.
They had borrowed $4,000 to finance
the enterprise, struck across Zanzi-
bar to the African coast, signing
treaties of cession with the native
chiefs as they went along, and when
they reached the coast the Doctors
companions went to Germany to ne
gotiate, leaving him alone, the only
white man within 1000 miles, to
await their return. The proposition
submitted by his companions was
eagerly accepted by the German gov
eminent, warships were sent to the
scene, the region, equal to Germany
in area, was seized, and thus, accord

Had Pat Answer Ready for Wrathful
Statesman.
He and Evarts were implacable en-
emies when it came to a passage OF
words, and the honors were about
even. One day, however, toward the
end of the New York senator's career
Evarts came off with flying colors.
He was chairman of the library COM
mittee and Hoar was a minor mem
Der. Evarts was lazy, and would not
call his committee together from be-
ginning to end of a session. A meas
ure which Hoar was anxious to have
brought up had been referred to the
library committee, and there seemed
doomed to sleep forever. Evarts
when pleaded with would promise to
call the committee to consider the
measure and then forget all about it
At last one day toward the end of the
session Hoar, annoyed and irascible,
met Evarts in the cloak room.
Whenever you are ready to call a
meeting of the library committee" he
said, with biting sarcasm, Il wish you
would notify my executors"
81 shall be most happy to notify
your executors" said Evarts, with a
smile.

An Honest Opinion.

Mineral, Idaho, Nov. 14th.-(Spe-
cial)-That a sure cure has been
discovered for those sciatic pains that
make sc many lives miserable, is the
firm opinion of Mr.. D. S. Colson, a
we'll known resident of this place,
and he does not hesitate to say that
cure is Dodd's Kidney Pills. The
reason Mr.. Colson is so firm in his
opinion is that he had those terrible
pains and is cured. Speaking of the
matter he says:
81 am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots of
good. l had awful pains in my hip
so l could hardly walk. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills stopped it entirely. l think
they are grand medicine"
All sciatic and Rheumatic pains are
caused by Uric Acid in the blood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy
Kidneys, and healthy Kidneys strain
all the Uric Acid out of the blood.
With the cause removed there can be
no Rheumatism or Sciatica.
