SAVED CHlLD'S LIFE.
Remarkable Cure Of Dropsy by Dodd's
Kidney Pills.

Kidney Pllls.
Sedgwick, Ark, July 1.-THE case
OF w. S. Taylor's little son is looked
upon by those interested in medical
matters as one of the most wonderful
on record. In this connection his
father makes the following statement:
Last September, my little boy had
Dropsy; his feet and limbs were
swollen to such an extent that he
could not walk nor put his shoes on.
The treatment that the doctors were
giving him seemed to do him no good
and two or three people said his days
were short, even the doctors, two OF
the best in the country told me he
would not get better. I stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd's
Kidney Pills. I gave him three Pills
a day, one morning. noon and night
for eight days; at the end OF the
eighth day the swelling was all gone,
but to give the medicine Justice,
gave him eleven more Pills. | used
thirty-fve Pills in all and he was en-.

Important to Mothers.
Dead" Romeo Protested.

One Alexander. manager of a Glas-
gov theater, who was also very bad
actor. when he had become an old
man was playing the part Of Romeo
one night, the Juliet being young
girl. After swallowing the poison, he
was lying dead, when the grotesque'
ness of the situation evoked applause
from the gallery. Alick (the name by
which he was universally known felt
this was meant for mockery. Rising
to his feet, he came to the front OF
the stage and said: "You think can't
play Romeo, but can play Romeo.
I have played 1t before" manning some
people of dlstinction) land shall play
It again" He then lay down and died
q second time.

When Success Is Easy.

The principles that win success are
very simple and few in number. They
are easily remembered. Here they
are: First. industry. but not over
work; second, willingness to pront BY
the experience of others; third. abil
ity coupled with modesty; fourth. sim
pie and correct habits; fifth, honesty,
politeness and fairness. Any one OF
ordinary ability who practices these
rules cannot avoid success. Success
is easier than failure.-London Til

PRESERVING QUAIL
Easier and Cheaper to Protect and
Preserve than to import

Preserve than to import
The late bulletin Of the division OF
zoology Of the state department Of
agriculture contains several suggestions
as to the propagating, care and inn
portation Of quail. In every part Of
the state reports say the winter has
been severe for the birds and many
have perished. 1t seems that the only
way to overcome this loss is to restock
and then in future those interested, II
they desire to maintain the number,
must preserve them. Most states have
passed lawsprohibiting the expectation
Of live quail except to organized clubs,
hence the point is about reached in
this state where it Is necessary 70
produce all the quail rather than ID
attempt to import them and in fact the
method Of saving the birds here,
though somewhat expensive, requires
less money and gives better results,
than TO attempt TO import the birds
from other regions. They may be
bought in Kansas by gun clubs for ten
dollars a dozen. There is a provision
In our game laws prohibiting the
trapping Of birds and their sale when
80 taken, but an exception to the aci
permits individuals or associations tc
gather them with consent Of the owner
Of lands at a certain season for the sole
purpose Of preserving them alive over
the winter. This might be taken
advantage Of by unprincipled persons
who would trap and then sell them.
The birds 80 taken must be liberated
in the region where captured. Tc
propagate and maintain quail in num-
Der sufficient 10 afIord legitimate Sport
would require concerted action by those
interested. No quail should be killed
here this season or perhaps next
After Dec. 20 next and up to Feb.
LIST the birds might be trapped and
preserved for liberation in the spring.
Shelters could also be built for them
and food provided. This no doubt
would save many, and II a few dozen
were taken and liberated IN the spring
the number would soon increase. But
any means to be effective must have
cooperation for strict enforcement Of
the law. IL will be no use for few 10

Some Old Jokes

That things were pretty much
years ago as now is evidenced by
some sayings copied from the Sussex
Register Of ls43. It says an exchange
tells the following story Of mission
AIRY lady who got permission through
an interpreter to preach to the Usage
Indians; The chiefs and assembled
multitude during the woman's talk
of three hours were all attention; but
at the conclusion of the sermon the
principle man Of the tribe rising
from his seat with the red mans
dignity said: Squaw very good
preach, better go home and mind
papoOse. Ugh.
A stage driver was remarkine the
other day that fifteen years ago he
drove stage coach on a route of
about so miles, upon which resided
Ave tavern keepers. Four Of them
have died Of drunkenness and the
ffth is in the almshouse.
An Alabama editor apologies for
a lack Of editorials, because Sal, his
better half has the scissors. The
babies he says must have shirts, and
Sal won't cut out shirts with a hand
saw, no how it can be fxed.
Travelling through the air by
steam is one Of the latest inventions
on the other side of the water. We
shall wait TO have it tried.
A clergyman recently, after ex-
hausting all his zeal and eloquence on
his auditory and finding them still
obdurase, concluded his prayer as
Follows: "And, Oh Lord make the
hearts Of these sinners as soft as their
heads.
Odd advertisements are. "Two
sisters want washing" and another,
"a spinster, particularly fond OF
children, wishes for two or three,
having none Of her own, nor any
other employment"

Brief Paragraphs

The Russian bear is said to be suffer-
ing from sea sickness.
Judge Parker is apparently willing
to forego his little salary of s14, 900 for
the pleasure Of being bowled over.
1t will be interesting to observe
whether the Hearst expenditures con-
tinue providing some other candidate
is put up.
The Chicago University which
recently bought a collection Of fossils is
understood 10 have negotiated in vain
for Jerry Simpson.
General Miles seems to have lost
some of his war ardor. He expresses
his opinion that the position of the
United States as a world power does
not depend upon its military strength.
The esteemed Chicago Chronicle
which has variousIy supported Bryan
and anti-Bryanites announces that
Parker won't do and that Cleveland is
the only man in sight who has any
show Of finishing.
The hopeful If somewhat misguided
democrats Of the great state Of Nevada
have endorsed the Bryan idea Of 1896
and 1900. When they awake next
fall they will, Of course, be sadder but
we doubt if wiser.
The New York publishing house
which declares that no first class fiction
is being produced these days should
devote itseIfdTing the coming months
to an examination Of the platforms and
resolutions Of the political conventions.
Col Bryan is quite willing to COM
promise party differences and eliminate
all faetiOnal fighting in the democracy.
He proposes simply blanket endorse
ment Of the Kansas City platform and
the privilege Of naming the candidate.
If Judge Parker having received
Mr.. Cleveland's endorsement, could
now by a little strategetical work only
secure one from Mr.. Bryan and then
be assured Of getting a few score Of
Roosevelt electoral votes, he would be
happy man.
A wireless telegram was intercepted
by the Japs, supposed TO be a Russian
dispatch. The word ''askold' gave
the clue to the source Of the message.
1t was later discovered that the word
was ''askance," 4" but this dnot change
the conclusions as to It's source,
