Sacramento, KY, Nov. 18th (Spe-
cial)-A typical illustration of the
way Dodd's Kidney Pills Cure Rheu-
matism Is well told by Catherine De-
vine, who is very well known here.
She says:
For over four years | was greatly
troubled with Rheumatism. 1t used
to take me worst in my legs and feet.
At times would be so bad / could not
put my feet to the ground AS | am
over seventy-three years Of age l be-
gan to think | was too old to get
cured and should have to bear my
Rheumatism the best way l could.
But heard about Dodds Kidney Pills
and thought | would give them a trial.
So got box and began taking them.
Well, must say Dodd's Kidney Pills
did me a wonderful lot of good They
eassd the pain from the first, and to-
day l am in better health than have
been for many years"

Aavn Proved Their Worth.

The campaign undertaken by inter.
ested publications to undermine the
faith of the people in proprietary
medicines has drawn forth the follow.
ing from a high medical authority:
1T must never be forgotten that the
interest of the manufactures is to put
out a remedy which Is not only meri-
torious but safe. With a small army
of enemies constantly on the alert,
ready to seize upon and magnify every
unfavorable circumstance, how few
are the cases of accident or injury
from the use Of proprietary medicines!
Complaints in regard to the use Of
such remedies are exceedingly rare
and utterly insignificant, in compari-
son with the amount sold and the mil
lions of people who avail themselves
of these remedies"

THE NEWS IN NEBRASKA,
WANT THE LAW INTERPRETED.
Officials Of Sioux and Gosper coun-
ties Want Information.

Officials Of Sioux and Gosper Coun.
ties Want information.
The legal department Of the state
has been asked by the officials OF
Sioux and Gosper counties for an In
depreciation of the Judge Tucker
law, enacted by the Legislature, pro-
viding for the selection of jurors.
Under the terms of the law neither
of these counties can figure just how
they can select jury, and so far the
legal department has not been able
to solve the puzzle, though 1t has not
given up. In the meantime 1t was
thought advisable to write Judge
Tucker; but, as he has troubles Of
his own, this plan has been abandon
ed and the attorney general will con-
tinue at work on the proposition,
though guesses from other attorneys
will be in order.
The proposition to be solved is as
follows: Section 1874 of the supple
ment to Cobbey's statutes provides:
How Names Selected From List.
THAT upon the completion Of the
canvass of election returns said
board shall select at least 500 names
from the tally sheet, provided that
the tally sheet contains that many
names; if the tally sheet does not
contain 500 names, then from the
actual number of names contained on
said sheet, in all counties having less
than 10000 inhabitants in the man.
ner following: They shall divide the
number of electors to be selected by
the number of the voting precincts
and allot to each voting precinct the
quotient or number thus obtained;
then the board shall divide the num-
Der of names found upon each tally
sheet of each voting precinct by the
quotient or number allotted to each
voting precinct; then shall count
from the top of the tally sheet of the
precinct the number of names of this
last quotient, the last name of which
shall be selected and put into re-
ceptacle as hereinafter provided;
then again count down the tally sheet,
selecting every name that CORE
spends to the number of this quoti-
ent, until the full quota of names
from said precinct shall have been
chosen, and thus continue the pro-
cess, through each precinct until the
required number of names shall have
been selected, and the names so fur
nished to the clerk of the distrlc,
court of the county or his deputy.

NEBRASkA'S ALFALFA CROP.
Becoming One of the Great Industries
of the State.

That alfalfa is becoming one of the
greatest and most valuable crops in
Nebraska is conclusively shown by a
report issued by the state bureau Of
labor and statistics dealing with the
acreage, production and value of the
alfalfa crop of Nebraska for 1905. The
report shows the total yield of the
crop to be 1901 60 tons, at value
of $11,715,S40. This great yield was
raised upon an acreage of 315711
acres, which gave an average yield Of
412 tons per acre. The increase in
the production of this valuable hay
is very noticeable when the acreage
and production for the last four years
is considered. In 1902 the acreage of
alfalfa in the state was 2O1, $50 acres,
and the estimated yield was 644,979
tons; in 1903 the total acreage was
238 ,401, with an estimated production
of S34 403 tons, and in 1904, although
the acreage decreased about 1000
acres, being 236,321 acres, yet the
total production was greater, owing
| to a larger average yield. The total
yield for that year was SS6,2O3 tons
1t will, therefore, be seen that by faI
the greatest annual increase has been
made this year. The increase in
acreage over last year has been 1880
acres and in total production 415,76C
tons.
Dawson county ranks first in the
production of alfalfa, having produced
99,645 tons on an acreage Of 21,662
Buffalo county enjoys second rank
with production of S4116 tons from
an acreage of 1862.

X c BAKING POWDER,
The Best Example Of What a Pure
Baking Powder Should Be in DUAL.
lty and Price.

A popular and efficient baking powder re-
quires two things-tirs that the food made
with it shall be absolutely wholesome;
second that it shall be sold at a reasonable
price.
In talking about the healthfulness OF
baking powder, it must be remembered
that baking powder is not an article of diet
any more than compressed yeast. One
would be quite as Objectionable for food "a
the other except that of the two, the bals-
ing powder might be preferable
We do not eat either baking powder or
yeast. What we do eat is the biscuit and
bread raised with them. When placed upon
the table no yeast remains in the bread and
no baking powder in the biscuit. Both
leavening agents have been destroyed in
the aeration and the baking; otherwise. in
stead of light bread and biscuit we should
have a mass of heavy, hard baked dough.
One well-known brand. X Baking
Powder, is sold lader S5O0,000 guarantee
of its healthfulness and purity. There can
be no doubt that baking powder so guar
anteed is absolutely wholesome and perfect
ly reliable. Even if it did remain in the
food it could do nothing but good
With regard to price, baking powder as
efficient and wholesome as is possible to
make can be sold, at fair profit, for one
cent an ounce. II it costs more the price is
eXhorbitant.
Millions of pounds of X C Baking Powder,
made by the Jaques Manufacturing Com
pany of Chicago, have been sold at the
above figure all over the country; and X @
offers the best example at present on the
market of what q good baking powder
should be, both in respect of quality and
reasonable price.
