GRASS TO HOLD CANAL BANKS

Experiments Made by the Engineers
in Charge of Ditch at Suez.
1t has been discovered by the engi.
neers who are occupied with the main
tenance of the Suez canal that the best
Of all methods of protecting the banks
from crumbling and decay is provided
by the natural growth of reeds which
fringe the channel for some distance
below Ismailia on the African side,
and some rather interesting attempts
have been lately made to plant new
beds in other parts of the canal
It is stated that the local species of
reed with which the experiment has
been so far made will not live in salt
or very brackish water in the early
stages of it's growth, though it will
bear transplanting later, and that at
present the serviceableness of the nat,
ural means of protection is conse.
quently limited.
Where the water is sufficiently free
from brine, however, the network OF
roots is found to put facing on the
loose soil of the banks more success.

A Wonderful Discovery,

Broadland, S. D., March 28.-Quite
a sensation has been created here by
the publication of the story of G. w.
Gray, who, after a special treatment
for three months was PROSTATE and
helpless and given up to die with
Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, but
evidently from the story told by Mr..
Gray, there is remedy which will
cure it even in the most advanced
stages. This is what he says:
II was helpless as little babe My
wife and I searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Bright's Disease, hoping that I would
be able to find a remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that l should
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. l praise God
for the day when decided to do so
for this remedy met every phase of my
case and in short time I was able
to get out Of bed and after few
weeks treatment I was a strong, well
man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my
life"
A remedy that will cure Bright's
Disease will cure any lesser Kidney
Disease. Dodd's Kidney Pills are GER
tainly the most wonderful discovery
which modern medical research has
given to the world.

HOW UTE CHARMED A GRIZZLY.

indian Found Bear Susceptible to the
- Powers Of Argument. =.
- "The most interesting story I ever
heard came from the lips of old Buck
skin Charley chief Of the Southern
Utes," said J. P. Altberger of Philadel-
phia.
"As told by a white man the nara
tive is tame, indeed, lacking the dra-
matte action and eloquerce Of the red
warrior. It was about a meeting with
a big grizzly bear in the mountains
Of Colorado. Charley was out looking
for deer. He was equipped with an
old-fashioned, .single-barrel, muzzle-
loading rife, which put him at ter.
rible disadvantage, when he was sud-
denly confronted by one of the big
est specimens of the grizzly he ever
saw.
"I jumped behind big tree very
quick he said, and Mr.. Bear came
close, rearing up on his hind legs.
was scared to sloot, only having one
barrel, Then commenced to talk
said: Mr.. Bear, am your friend. ]
come out after deer. I hope you 60
away and so I kill deer and leave big
piece of meat for you Then the bear
seemed to get friendly and he dropped
on his legs to the ground, much as to
say he'd like a piece of deer, and then
he run off into the mountains

NAUGHTY Girls Philosophy,

Former Gov. Gage of California has
little daughter of whom he is won
drously fond and of whom he never
tires of talking. She Is the little lady
who christened the transpacific cable
when the American end was laid with
much ceremony in San Francisco.
Here is one of the stories the former
governor tells, but always when the
subject of it is out of hearing:
One day he had occasion to repri-
mand her for some trivial offense, and
said:
my dear, where do you think you
will go when you die if you persist in
being naughty"
Without moments hesitation and
in the most matter-of-fact way came
the reply:
Il don't know, and neither do you
nor any one else. It's enough for God
