yet many remain much longer, fitting

lawyer or ruler of their countrymen.

For Growing Girls.

West Pembroke, Me-, April "a
Mrs. A. L. Smith, Of this place.. says
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith
emphasizes her recommendation by
the following experience:
my daughter was thirteen years old
last November and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last week and
would then pass off. In month she
would have the spells again. At these
times she would eat very little and
was very yellow; even the whites of
her eyes would be yellow.
''The doctors gave us no encourage
ment, they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
SPELL OF course, we continued the
treatment until she had used in all
about dozen boxes, and we still give
them to her occasionally, when she is
not feeling well. Dodd's Kidney Pills
are certainly the best medicine for
growing girls"
Mothers should heed the advice of
Mrs. Smith, for by so doing, they may
save their daughters much pain and
sickness and ensure healthy, happy
future for them. !

of the Indian warehouse in New York
City were summarily dismissed from
Office Friday by Secretary Hitchcock,

inspection of the Office by Indian In

Of irregularity in the conduct of the Of
flee, including Wilson's accounts, in
order to protect a number of en-

no service whatever. One of them
was a barkeeper, who, it is charged,

"Shoji's quietude has just been dis
turbed by big wild-boar hunt" says

Nalue of Time.

There is nothing SO valuable to the
man who is going to carve out his
own fortunes (and, the fortune that is
not carved out by oneself is not worth
aaving). as time. Minutes, hours,
days; they are things the value OF
which man cannot compute. They
mean everything to young men. They
are tides that come and 60 and leave
him q wreck or carry hip along with
them to success They can spell ruin
Just as we'll as they can spell hope;
they will see man fall just as readily
as they will see him rise. One hour
may mean an era of mental advance
ment and development to the man who
spends 1t proftably; it may mean sim
p1y sixty minutes Of time passed in
shooting pool or billiards. You take
your choice and you reap accordingly.

which ought to be first considered by

SUIT FOR A GALLoWs.
Remarkable Action Filed in Mon.
tana Town.

Lewistown, Mont.-A remarkable
civil action has just been instituted
by County Attorney Ares against
Tubbs Bros, contractors. 1t grows
out of the sale of the old county Jail,
which was bought in by the contract
ors for $4,000. According to their
understanding, they were to have all
of the old timber in the Jail yard, and
so they carried away the gallows.
This week the sheriff of Meagher
county applied to Sheriff Slater for
the use of the gallows for the execu-
ton of H. H. Metzger. It was then
discovered that the gallows was miss
ing. Tubbs Bros. assert they believed
they had bought the gallows. The
county commissioners dispute this
and will bring an action to compel the
contractors to return the gallows or
to pay it's value.

an account of some cures effected by

how felt assured that these pills would
help me. Most people. I think, buy only
one box for trial, but I purchased six
boxes at once, and when I had used
them up, was indeed well and had no

cdr. Williams Pink Pills enriched my

stored my appetite, gave me strength to
walk long distances without fatigue, in
fact freed me from all my numerous all

months, and I cannot say enough in
praise of DR.. Williams Pink Pills"

FOURTEEN CREMATED
IN A CONVENT FIRE
Sisters Succumb In an Effort to Save
Lives of Helpless Children.

Lives OF Helpless Children.
Montreal-The little village of st.
Genevieve is in mourning over the
loss of fourteen lives in fire which
destroyed the convent of Ste. Anne
there early Friday.
One nun, nine children ranging in
age from 10 to 10, and four aged
women persisted in the flames. Two
nuns were SO severely burned that 1T
is feared they will die. In their grief
over the catastrophe the villagers
find some comfort in relating the
heroism displayed by Sister Marie
Adjuteur, who gave up her life, and,
Sisters Marie Therese and Marie Rob-
ertine, who were perhaps fatally
burned in their efforts to save the
lives of the children and helpless old
women in their charge.
The fire started about midnight in
the old ladies' hospital, and the smoke
was so thick that the children on the
floor above were unable to get down.
