For years 1 was in very bad health
Every spring 1 would get so low that
was unable to do my own work. L

any other time OF the year. 1 was
very weak and miserable and had
much pain in my back and head. 1
saw Dodd's Kidney Pills advertised
last spring and began treatment OF
them and they have certainly done me
more good than anything have ever
used
Il was all right last spring and felt

years and 1 give Dodd's Kidney Pills
credit for the wonderful Improve

They are unsurpassed as a tonic and

ney trouble and there was such a
severe pain through my loins and
limbs that l could not stoop or
straighten up without great pain, had
difficulty in getting about and was
unable to rest at night, arising in
the morning tired and worn out. The
kidney secretions were irregular and
deposited heavy sediment. Doctors
treated me for rheumatism, but failed
to help me. | lost all confidence in
medicine and began to feel as if life
were not worth living. Doan's Kidney
Pills, however, relieved me so quickly
and so thoroughly that 1 gladly made
a statement to that effect for publica-

six years which have elapsed l have

Flynn Intervenes.

Washington, April 1.-Ex- Delegate
Flynn went before the committee on
territories, and discussed the provision
of the statehood bill which fixes the
state capital of the proposed state at
Guthrie until 1910. Mr.. Flynn argued
against the legality of such action on
the ground that congress. has no power
to determine the location of the state
capital after the state has come into
existence, and that the enabling act
can only direct where the capital shall
be located until the state is formed.

Heavy FREIGHT charaea.

Owing to heavy port charges at
Beirut and relatively high freight
rates on the Lebanon Railway during
the harvest, some 1000 to 5000
camels, each with burden of 500
pounds of grain, daily pass between
the interior of Syria and the sea via
Nazareth. The camel driver, how
ever, claims half of the load as his
reward, and the farmer, after paying
taxes, for seed, etc, has scant compen-
