wsshInaton At saratoaa.

Booker T. Washington's appearance
at dinner recently in the great dining
room Of the United States hotel at Sar-
atoga caused mild sensation among
the diners. Mr.. Washington was the
guest Of John Wanamaker former
postmaster general, and acted as es-
cort Of Mrs. Barclay Warburton, Mr..
Wanamaker's daughter. while Mr..
Wanamaker walked to the table with
]. r. E. Roberts. AS they walked down
the long line every eye was directed
upon the distinguished negro educator
and the former Cabinet officer. Com
paratively few of those present recog-
nized either of them and there was
general buzz of comment and O cram
ing of necks.
Mr.. Washington preached at Sara
toga three times, first in the Presby-
terian church. then in the Baptist
church, and late in the evening in the
American Methodist church.

The Icon of Russia.

An icon is holy picture or mosaic,
blessed by a priest of the Greek
church and carried by the devout as
talisman to ward off evil. After the
Icon has been blessed by a priest. it
Is then regarded no. only as an orna-
ment, but as al accessory in the wor-
ship of the Greek church. Almost ev-
cry soldier wears an icon on HIS bo-
som. and when he prays he takes out
his icon. and opening 1t. kneels down
before it as Il it were an altar. Every
Russian regiment has its special icon.
which 1t carries like banner when

lures. Special permission has been
given by the leading agencies of the

ciaD-Whole families in Bayfield,
County are singing the praises of
Dodd's Kidney Pills and the reason
why is given in experiences such as
that of Mr.. T. T. Wold, a well-known

Void, land as came across an adver-
tisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills, l

ed me of all my pains. My wife also
used them and found them just what
she needed. l recommend Dodd's Kid
ney Pills as a sure cure for Back
ache and other Kidney Troubles"
Backache is one of the earliest
symptoms Of Kidney Disease. Dodd's
Kidney Pills cure it promptly and per-
manently and prevent it developing
into Rheumatism, Dropsy, Diabetes or

Veterinary surgeons know, but the
