Fraser, Idaho, Nov. 9th Especially
Mrs. Martha J. Lee has given for pub
Mcatior the following statement, con-
corning Dodd's Kidney Pills:
Il was down with rheumatism
three times" she says, and each
time Dodd's Kidney Pills helped me.
The last time they cured me, and now
I am, able to get around and do all my
work, though l am f%ifty-eight, and
I can walk to Sunday School every
Sunday. Before l took Dodd's Kidney
Pills l was so bad I could use neither
hand nor foot. I shall keep Dodd's
oils on hand all the time"
Rheumatism is caused by Uric Acid
crystallizing in the muscles. Healthy
kidneys remove all Uric Acid from
the blood. Diseased Kidneys cannot
remove this Acid, which collects in
the blood and poisons every vein and
artery. Dodd's Kidney Pills cure
Rheumatism by curing the Kidneys;
by healing and strengthening them,
SO that they can rid the blood of all
impurities.

WHITE GIRL AS ImDrAN.
She Has Had q Strange. Life Among tn,
B~lackfeet.

She Has Had = Strange. Life Among tho
Blackfeet.
The curious story of a white girls
life among the Blackfeet Indians for
16 years just come out through a suit
brought by Alice Burke against Thorn
as Husson, a cattle rancher of Eastern
Oregon to recover a ranch which once
belonged to her father, and is now
valued at $4,000 dollars, says the Chi
cago Herald" Burke and old Husson
started to cross the plains from Kansas
to Oregon. Burke was detained and
sent his girl, then two years old, with
Mrs. Husson. Husson sold the child to
a Blackfoot Indian Chief for IL ponies,
and when Burke arrived in Oregon
told him that Alice had died. Six years
ago Burke died, and the Illusions have
been in possession of his ranch. Alice
meanwhile grew UP among the tribe,
and when white people noticed her fine
hair, the Indians said she was a half
breed whose parents were dead. She
gained the love of the son of a chief
named Fleetwing, who vas sent to
Carlisle. When he was there Alice took
lessons of the Indian agents wife and
kept pace with him in his studies.
When the agent was removed she went
with him to Boise City, but his wife
died, and she had to take a place as
a servant, and was a kitchen drudge
for many months. Then Fleetwing sent
her money, and she returned to the
reservation. The revelation Of her
white blood came when she was an ap-
plicant for a place in a big tribal cere-
mony. Then young Husson appeared
and told her the story, but offered her
only 500 for her fathers property,
She refused and investigated, and is
now suing for the recovery Of the land,
When she gets it she is to marry John
Fleetwing.

Julian would take the two black men
to service so near his own person, and
when he found that such arrangement
had been made, his first inclination
was to hesitate least a suspicion of the
slaves honesty had led the chieftain to
place them thus near him. However,
after the lapse of a few days, Judah
was satisfied that no suspicion was en-
tertained against himself or his COM
panions, and he began to turn his at
tention to the work he had in hand.
On the morning of the fourth day
Julian announced his intention OF NOV
Ing, and gave orders that his men
should be in readiness. A spy had ar
rived during the night with intelli-
gence that a large caravan was on it's
way from Tyre to Damascus, and the
chieftain had determined to intercept
it. Some wealthy merchants from
Rome were in the approaching train,
and 1t was probable that they bore
wealth for Koran.

dab was in the wood after his horse.

she was the bondmafden Of the prin-
cess Ulin may be taken in answer to
the query"
"By the Tyre of Apollo, she must
have come from her Mistress" ex-
claimed the chieftain, warmly. "The
princess may be in trouble. She may
need stout arms to help her. Lead me
to this bondmaiden at once"
"She begged, my lord, that she might
not be exposed"
Lead on. l will see her"
The great road wound around
the foot Of the hill, and ere long the
guard had reached a point so utterly
shut off from the camp that his loud
est cry could not have been heard by
the robber sentinels.
us the girl here?" asked Julian, as
his sable guide stopped and turned.
"She must be very near here, my
lord. I left her upon this very spot"
. The chieftain heard a slight rustling
behind him; but, not being startled
into quick action, before he could turn
he received a blow upon the side Of
the head that felled him to the earth.
He was for the moment stunned, and
before his reason was clear enough to
direct his movements, he was set upon
by three stout men, who bound his
arms and legs so quickly that his
power of resistance was gone before
he fairly knew what opposed him.
"sir Robber," spoke the Israelite
bending over the PROSTATE chieftain,
"you are my prisoner, and henceforth
you are in my keeping until I deliver
you up to my master. You cannot es-
cape me, so do not trouble yourself
with the attempt"
"You are JUDAH said the chieftain.
Il am"
"And these others are protested to
be of Aleppo"
"Yes."
"And you three serve the king of Da-
mascus?"
"You have guessed the truth"

though communing with himself, II

do not blame yourself, Sir Robber.
Judah of Damascus has done more diff
ficult work than this; and you may
take to yourself the assurance that
when he set out upon his mission the
deed was sure of its accomplishment.
All, here m Selim with the horses.
You shall have an easy ride and a
quick one; and when you are in the
presence of the king you can plead
your case as eloquently as you please.
I have not time to listen; nor have I
the power to Judge"
The Scourge of Damascus, in the full
vigor of robust manhood, and possess
ed of a strength and daring beyond
any of his stalwart followers, was a
prisoner in the hands Of
three slaves-a prisoner within
sound of his own camp-and so surely
a prisoner that he had no way of es-
cape. His steel-wrought muscles were
powerless beneath the cruel bonds, and
his mouth was stopped from the utter
ance of alarm. He was lifted from the
ground and placed upon the back of
a powerful horse, and in a few mo-
ments more he was being borne swiftly
away from his friends and compan-
ions-away towards the city where
dwelt his ~deadliest enemies.
