a. Teachers Testimony.

Hinton, KY, Oct. Both Especially 1t
has long been claimed that Diabetes is in.
durable, but Mr.. E. ]. Thompson, teach
er in the Hinton school, has pleasing evil
dence to the contrary. Mr.. Thompson
had Diabetes. He took Dodd's Kidney
Pills and is cured. In a statement he
makes regarding his cure Mr.. Thompson
says:
II was troubled with my kidneys for
more than two years, and was treated by
two of the best doctors in this part of the
state. They claimed l had Diabetes and
there was little to be done for me. Then
l started to use Dodd's Kidney Pills, and
what they did for me was wonderful, 1t
is entirely owing to Dodd's Kidney Pills
that l am now enjoying good health"
Many doctors still maintain that Dia-
betes is incurable. But Diabetes is a kid
ney, disease, and the kidney disease that
Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure has yet
to be discovered.

THE MEDICAL SPHERE.

In the leprosy experiments at Manila,
rs cases have been treated by Roentgen
rays, and six are reported actually
cured, while the disease has been
checked in several whose bodies are
partially gone.
A Russian medical man has decided
that electric light is least injurious to
the eyes. He says that the oftener the
lids are closed the greater the fatigue
and consequent injury. By experiments
he finds that the lids would close in
candle light, 6.3 times per minute;
gas, 2.8 times; sun, % times; electric
light, 1.8 times.
Numerous successful trials in the hos
pitfalls have proved that Quina-Laroche

sons and delicate children, and that it

The e~xhilaration from ozone is mis-

his lack of knowledge of violin music. His
