A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. Oak, April 17.-Quite
sensation has been created here by
the publication of the story of G. w.
Gray, who after a special treatment
for three months was prostrate and
helpless and given up to die with
Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, 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:
Il was helpless as little babe. My
wife and | searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Bright's Disease, hoping that would
be able to find remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that / should
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. praise God
for the day when / decided to do so.
for this remedy met every phase of
my case and in a short time | was
able to get out of bed and after few
weeks treatment l was a strong, well
man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my
life"
A remedy that will cure Bright's
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.

LAWS AID A NECESSITY.
Unpleasant Fact Brought Out hv Sub
leSt of Divorce.

Much is said and written now upon
the subject of divorce, says Miss
Julia Magruder I'm an article entitled
"Lancelot. Guinevere and Arthur" in
the North American Review. And
much there is to say on the legal side
of the state against the man or wom-
an who seeks to break the legal bond
of marriage. Perhaps, of all these
arguments, the strongest is that of
necessity. The law must hold a man
and woman together, for the reason
that love will not. But for this fact
the impermanence of human affection
which every day confronts us, Love
and not Law might be conceded to
constitute the marriage bond. But
stern necessity compels us to recog-
nize the fact that this obligation too
rarely holds to be established as
precedent. Therefore-in the present
age of man, at least-we are com
PEELED to respect the legal bond. The
legal bond, yes-but the mere legal
bond, no!-and when Tennyson
pushes 1t to the point of assuring,
without doubt or hesitation, that this
will be the one which will prevail in
the eternal hereafter, even his beauti-
full poetry does not save the situation
from an element of the ridiculous.

nHr. Jones Tells of the Way by which Hs
Treated Himself Successfully
when Doctors Failed.
Six physicians, all of them good, one Of
them specialist, had done their best
for Mr.. Jones at different times during
three years, and still he suffered fear
fully from the fortunes of rheumatism.
The rheumatism that had been dor
mant in his system was suddenly
brought to an acute stage by exposure
while he was drawing ice in February,
1901. From that time on for o period
of more than three years he was con-
slant sufferer. He tried many kinds of
treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn't
bulge. When regular doctors failed,
and one remedy after another proved
useless, many said: II should think he
would give 1t up and save his money"
OF his condition at tlds time, Mr..
Jones says: my rheumatism started
in my right thigh, but In time it APP
peared in every muscle of my body.

When my right side was affected there
was swelling, but the left side didn't
swell when the disease settled there.
The internal organs didn't seem to be
involved at all. The trouble was all 10
the muscles and the nerves."
Among the few who still encouraged
Mr.. Jones to think that a cure might
yet be found was a friend who had rea-
son for great confidence in DIR. Will

advice he bought box of them in Sep
tember, 1904. The story of what fol-
lowed is brief, but nothing could be
more satisfactory.

ON STRANGERS LAP
sPlNsTER RODE IN CROWDED
ELEVATED TRAIN.
situation Enjoyed by the Other Pas
seneers, but Decidedly DistastefuI to
the PrincipaIs-Fat Man Finally
Succumbs to Fate.

The elevated train was chock full
when the very stout man got on at
Thirty-third street. There wasn't
room between platform and platform
for famine victim; but the stout
man, like all stout men, didn't see
how he could make any difference. He
stepped upon the platform buoyantly,
MASKING messenger boy fiat against
the door and spreading a lemon-faced
little spinster all over the window like
jam or butter.
AT Twenty-eighth street half dozen
people got out. Instantly there was a
rush for seats and standing room left
inside the car. But alas! when fat
man gets wedged in a doorway, who
else can penetrate it? Again, like
all fat men, the fat man was lucky,
and, strange as it may appear, he
managed to get one of the seats re-
Gently vacated.
When he had sat down the little
spinster gathered herself together and
found foothold in front of him, and
the others, with some new passengers
just taken on, crowded in after her and
packed themselves like sardines
They were squeezed so tight that the
spinster reached for strap to keep
from being pushed over on the fat
mans head and shoulders. But just
as she made a grasp somebody else
caught the only remaining strap. The
bell rang sharply and the train start
ed with jerk. The little spinster lost
her breath and balance, toppled for a
moment on her toes and then sank
struggling down upon the fat mans
lap.
The fat man gasped and the spinster
gave an awful cry of CONSERVATION and
reached for the floor. But there was
no floor! Every inch of space was
covered by the feet of the determined
passengers. The moment she sat
down they had spread out over her
space. Then she blushed Some peo-
pie looked her way and laughed, but
nobody moved. She couldn't wedge
her knees down from the altitude
they had assumed at the first lurch
She continued to struggle and strain
to reach a strap while the fat man
sat helpless with that energetic mite
of femininity going through the jiu
jitsu exercises on his knees. At the
next station more people got on and
the fight of the lone spinster became
more difficult and desperate.
Flesh and blood, even 300 pounds
strong, could stand it no longer Like
a mountain rising and casting off the
small cities on its surface, the ponder
GUS one rose and pushed the sardine-
like passengers out of his magic circle.
The spinster slid off his knee like a
drop of water off duck.
Madam" said the fat man, lifting
his hat gravely, will you do me the
honor to take my seat?"
well, it's about time!" snapped the
rufF1ed little spinster ungratefully.-
