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 a week and
would then pass off. In a month she
would have the spells again. At these
times she would eat very little and
was very yellow; even the whites of
Ter 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. or 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 we'll. 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

and the gun, just as it shot out a jet
of flame.
A second report mingled so closely
with the first as to make them seem
but one; and Zeney, with the man
who had shot her, fell to the ground.
All had happened so quickly that
LATTE, who was, for an instant, I'M
neryed by Rose de Cazeneau's effort
to save MIN, had scarcely time to
draw a pistol before his unknown as.
sailant fell, as if from the discharge
of his own weapon, which had killed
Zeney.
In their surprise and fright, and by
reason of the confusion, no one except
LATTE had comprehended any mean
ing in the words which followed the
wild cry of Barbe, who now stood Sob
bling Historically, with her arms
around her half-swooning mistress.
while Lazalie, with dilating nostrils
and blazing eyes, sought to release
herself from Madame Riefet.
Baptistine, who had heard the shots,
reached the shore in a small boat
pulled by some of his crew, soon after
Shapiro appeared at the edge of the
thick woods from whence had come
the bullet that had killed Zeneys slay-
err.
The English sailor, at Lafltte's COM
mand, now surrendered his arms to
Shapiro, and was promised freedom,
in exchange for truthful statement
of the motive which brought his com.
panion and himself to the spot.
He said that the other man had been
unknown to him until that same morn
ing: and all he now knew of him was
that he was a scout, picked up from
among the Indians, and bought to
serve the English. Capt. Lockyer,
who was in command of the English
fleet upon Lake Borgne, having
learned that LATTE was in that vicin-
ity, had selected this scout to find and
capture the man upon whom he longed
to execute personal vengeance. His
orders had been to bring LATTE to
him, alive, If possible, and dead,
rather than not at all; and the sailor,
having been one of the crew who
rowed the British officers to their
notifying conference at Grande
Terre, had been sent with the scout in
order to identify LATTE.
Such was the end Of the man in
whom Barbe had recognized the bril-
liant officer Of former years-recog-
nized, despite the shock of grizzled
hair. and the changes wrought by time
and a lawless life in the face and

ANOTHER RECORD IN LAND
HUNTING.
This Springs Exodus to Canada
Greater Than Ever.

1t was thought in 1903, when over
the United States to Canada, that the
limit of the yearly immigration to
the wheat zone of the Continent had
been reached But when in 1904
about as large number Of Ameri-
can citizens signiied their intention
of becoming settlers on Canadian
lands, the general public were pre-
pared for the announcement of large
numbers in 1905. No surprise there
fore will be caused when it is made
known that predictions of fully fifty
thousand more in 1905 are warranted
in the fact that the Spring movement
Canadaward is greater than ii has
ever been. The special trains from
Omaha, Chicago, st. Paul, Detroit
and other gateways has been crowd
ed. Many have gone to join friends
and relatives who have prepared
homes for them and others have gone
relying upon their own resources, sat
isfied that what others have done can
also be done by them. This year
much new territory has been opened
up by the railroads which are extend
ing their main lines and throwing out
branches in their march across the
best grain and grazing lands on the
continent. This new territory has
attractions for those desiring to home
stead on the one hundred and sixty
acres granted each settler by the
Canadian Government. Many also
take advantage of the opportunity to
purchase lands at the low figures at
which they are now being offered.
1t does not require much thought to
convince one that if Iowa, Illinois,
Minnesota and other lands, with
value of from fifty to one hundred and
fifty dollars an acre will give a good
living by producing ten to thirteen
bushels of wheat to the acre and thir-
ty TO fifty bushels Of corn to the acre,
the lands of Western Canada at seven
TO ten dollars an acre, producing
from twenty to thirty bushels of a
superior wheat to the acre should
produce a competence TO the ordinary
farmer in very few years. These
are the facts as they confront the
reader. There are millions of acres
of such land in Western Canada in
addition to the other millions that
are considered to be portion of the
biggest and best ranges that ever in
vited the cattle and horse producer
of the North American continent.
What is particularly evident in West
ern Canada is the fact that the wheat
lands, adjoining the grazing lands,
make farming particularly agreeable
and profitable. The agents of the
Canadian Government, who are al
ways willing to give information and
advice to intending settlers, say that
the acreage put under crop this sea-
son is greatly in excess of last sea-
son.

Nervous School chiIdren.

Statistics gathered by various
School Boards. show that a large per-
centage of school children suffer from
different forms of nervousness, mild
or exaggerated. Some showed a ten
dency to melancholy, others mental
depression, and many the nervous
twitchings of mild chorea, or ST. Vitus'
dance. Most of these troubles can be
overcome by proper food sufficient
sleep, and DR.. Caldwell's (laxative)
Syrup Pepsin. 1t is a universal chill
drens medicine because, if good food
is eaten, it insures that the food is

CHAPTER xxx.

Less than a week later, one early
afternoon, the members of the house
hold at La Tete des Faux were start
led by the booming OF cannon in the
direction of Lake Borgne.
What had happened was this: An
English fleet, with twelve hundred
men, had, with the intention of throw
ing an attacking force across Lakes
Borgne and Pontchartain, sailed into
Lake Borgne and opened an attack up
on the Americans, whose presence
was surprise to the enemy. as Capt.
Lockyer, commanding the latter. had
understood that this point was de-
fenseless.
A fierce battle followed, resulting in
a partial victory for the English, who
were now masters of Lake Borgne.

afternoon, brought this news to La

One of his owp craft, commanded
by Baptistine, was :yIng off the Owls

would announce the coming of LATTE,

the neighborhood, had not reckoned

Historic Thimbles.

In Mrs. Vanderbilt's collection of
thimbles, which is the envy of her
friends, there are several that are not
only very beautiful, but historically
valuable as well. Among the latter,
and probably most highly valued by
their fortunate owner, is one which
was originally worn by Queen Eliza.
BETH another, which shows its royal
owner knew its use, was the property
of Princess Alice; still another dainty
conception in gold and enamel once
belonged to the Princess of Wales,
while most valued of all is one said
to have been used by Queen Victoria

Hospitality a Cardinal Virtue Through
out Africa.


Hospitality may be considered as
one of the characteristics of not only
the Veis, but OF the whole African
race, says a writer in the Century.
1t is considered the duty of every CT
tizen to entertain strangers without
the smallest compensation. Places
of rest stand always open, and when
these are found occupied by strangers,
a man goes and tells his wife. who
will send her servants with water
for the strangers to wash their feet;
for, as they wear no shoes, they
naturally need such accommodation.
Afterward rooms and cloth wrappers
are given them. food is brought from
all quarters, or they are invited to
eat with the people. They continue
to be so provided for. even IL they
stay months. Their garments are
also washed and returned to them.
