A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. OAK, April 17.-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 incurabie, 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:
81 was helpless as a little babe. My
wife and searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Brights Disease, hoping that / would
be able to find remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that | should
try Dodds Kidney Pills. l praise God
for the day when l decided to do So
for this remedy met every phase OF
my case and in short time ] was
able to get out of bed and after few
weeks treatment | was a strong, well
man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my
life"
A remedy that will cure Bright'x
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.

Good Friday Superstitions

known-the day was for long hailed
as "Long-Rope-Day" from the strange
custom kept up until within quite re-
cent years of the fishing fraternity
amusing themselves throughout the
day by numbers of them-grown-up
people-skipping together at one long
rope.
What ancient aspects of Good Fri
days great lesson such customs were
intended to perpetuate it is difficult
to discover, and the most patient and
prolonged antiquarian and ecclesiolo-
gical investigation to this end would
probably prove futile. At first blush
the idea of lesson in penitential
humility associates itself with the
now obsolete Good Friday custom of
washing the tomb of one Molly Crime
at Glantham-in-L Lincolnshire, which
but the association has its mercenary
aspect in the fact that a neighboring
property was charged with the pay
ment of Is each to the washers. Tie
practice has been abandoned since
1882, and it is said that the appear
ance of the tomb and the name of the
occupant now present no incongruity
That "hot-cross buns" should be
eaten on Good Friday is certainly not
statutory obligation, yet half the
civilized world feel it bounden duty
to include the bun in the menu for
that day. The Christian Significance
of the cross is ample warrant for the
custom to many.

How otherwise is to be explained
the conscientious keeping up of quaint
observances which are required
neither by written law nor apparent
reason?
These customs are, as rule, as
sociated with red letter days of the
Ecclesiastical calendar, and Good FRI
day has its 81 e of this old-fashion-
ed devotion. With some women in

Ordinary Friday is, as a rule, looked
upon as a step of ill-omen, yet the

that prevailed in old monastic times

Immortality

The miracle of the rejuvenating
spring had been witnessed by ma.iy
thousand generations before men
dared claim as a certainty the great
hope which its parable inculcatee -
before the human soul dared bolely
believe that it was itself as deathless
as the germ of life slumbering over
winter in the buried seed.
Since the Conqueror of Death, by
the triumph which the world is to-day
celebrating, certified the validity of
that belief, the season in which Aa-
ture annually illustrates the appoint
ed victory of life over death has le-
come the most significant of all festi
walls. At Christmas the world is glld
as children are glad-with the uncIn-
sidered glee of youth. At Eastertiie
it rejoices as men rejoice in the prus-
ence of deliverance from fear-wlth
recollected voices and bosoms grit
with thankfulness.
The austerity of the earth and SKY
prepares to yield to the conqueriag
sweetness of spring. Already the
winds caress with an unfamiliar soft
ness, the earth beguiles with dimly
green prophecy OF vernal loneliness.
Nature is timidly yearning heaven

life Is not mere telluric nor aerial-it
sings out in the souls of men who
have considered the mystery OF life
and its persistency under the sod and
through the chill of winters appar-
ent death. To such Easter Day-set
in the midst of a season which wit

be Eastertide. The fitful spring sun

most unreasonable to depend upon the
weather from one day to another at
this time of the year. Seasonable
weather just now is popularity sup

sunshine, usually accompanied by a
cutting east wind. April was called
Octer-monah-the month of the east

ditch could be reduced one-half

Taft. you were connected with the

up pen to resume the signing of of,

canal in the meantime by employing

Frenchman bowed himself out.
