For Growing Girls. Z

West Pembroke, Me-, March 21.-
Mrs. A. L. Smith, of this place, says
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for growing girls. Mrs, Smith
emphasizes her recommendation by the
following experience:
"My daughter was thirteen years old
last November and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last week and would
then pass off. In month she would
have the spells again. At these times
she would eat very little and was very
yellow even the whites OF her eyes
would be yellow.
1.-The doctors gave US no encourage
ment, they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
spell. OF course, we continued the
treatment until she had used in all
about a dozen boxes, and We still give
them to her occasionally, when she is
not feeling we'll. Dodd's Kidney Pills
are certainly the best medicine for
growing girls"
Mothers should heed the advice Of
Mrs. Smith for by SO doing, they may
save their daughters much pain and
sickness and insure a healthy happy
future for them.

QUEER BATTLEFlELDS.
IN Ice and Underground Mem Have

On Ice and Underground Mem Have
Made War.
When the American marines aud the
Colombian troops recently confronted
each other at Colon 1t looked for a
time as If a battle was to be fought
on the pier Of the Royal Mail Steam
ship Company.
A pier Is rather an unusual place to
fight a battle, but battles have been
fought in many curious places, rang
ing from mountain peaks to sewers,
and from ice fields to desert sands.
At the battle Of Monterey, In the
Mexican war, the Americans were able
to command the streets of the city
with their artillery, but they had diff
Guilty in dislodging the Mexicans from
the houses So, the city being built
Of stone or adobe In solid blocks Of
houses, the Yankees broke through the
walls from one house to another, fight
ing and driving out the enemy, so that
the battle of Monterey was largely
fought indoors.
In one of the battles of the wars
Of William the Silent for the indie
pendence Of the Netherlands, the Span
ish ships were frozen in on the Zuider
Zea The Dutch came out on horse
back over the ice and attacked them.
This is probably the only battle in
which cavalry was ever used directly
against ships. Several other comba g
were fought between troops on the Ice
in these wars, and on one occasion the
infantry is said to have worn skates.
The battle of Austerlitz was partly
fought on a frozen lake, and when the
allies were retreating across 1t, the
shot from the French artillery, plung-
ing into the fee and breaking it up,
caused the death of thousands of Rus
slams and Austrians.
OF the many underground battles
which have taken place in history, the
fercest was probably that of the siege
Of HARLEM In the Dutch wars. The
Spaniards mined and the Dutch coun-
termined with equal industry, and be-
low the ground a fierce conflict ragged.
When the Versailles troops took
Paris after the Commune they chased
some Of the Communist troops to the
great sewers of the French capital,
where some desperate struggles took
nlace.

An Ancient Wreck.

By the aid of a diver from st. John,
Thomas Burns, fisherman from Sea
Wall, N. s., has recovered nearly $751;
600 in gold from the hull Of a wrecked
vessel for which he paid 81 shilIings,
and he expects to find even more treas
ures in the hull If luck and fair wealth
er continue.
The wreck was that of brig which
was lost mile below Centerville sew
enty years ago. She is said to have
been the Barberie, which was wrecked
on her way home after a three-years'
trading cruise in South American wa
ters. 1t is said that her commander
and his son had on board for the own
ers 100000 in gold, the profits of the
trip.
Thomas Burns bought the hull as II
stood for q shillings for the sake of
the copper nails and fastenings, which
he secured years ago. Knowing that
diver was exploring other wrecks
in that vicinity, Burns engaged him to
look into his own, with the fortunate
results recorded
Most of the gold coin recovered Is
Spanish. A good deal has seeming.
ly fused into a mass by being sub.
merged so long in the sea water. One
piece bears the date of 1924, and is
stamped Republica el Colombia. 9th
ers are dated 1917. Burns was a man
of very limited means. By his new
find he now becomes one of the richest
men in his village.-New York Times.

The "Distineuished Citizen"

Once in a Massachusetts town ]. A.
Riis was asked by a gaunt, funereal
sort Of chap what he should say by
way Of introducing him to an assem-
blage.
"Ohy" said Mr.. Riis, in a spirit Of
levity, SAY anything you like. Say
am the most distinguished citizen In
the country. They generally do"
Whereupon his serious-minded friend
marched upon the stage and calmly an.
nounced to the audience that he did
not know this man Riis, whom he was
charged with introducing; and had
never heard Of him.
HE tells me-" he went on, with
never a wink, that he is the most dis
tinguished man in the country. You
can Judge for yourselves when you
have heard him."

Meet with Success.
Various echoes from the camp reach

the cooking, and am asked to furnish

add this dainty to their fare, espe'
clally since It was so easily made. He
wrote out the directlons-nour, eggs,

At another time q kinsman aspired

over "Give seven beats Of the fork"
They tell me he said 1t at last in his

unanimous that he must have given
eight beats or spoiled It some other
way, but all agreed nobody had been
in any danger OF dying from the et-
