The watchman at that point saw
the fellow going up the track shortly
before the train ran. He appeared
to be acting rather queerly as he
was mittering to himself and paid
no attention to the watchman, not
even noticing him apparently.
From the time he was found he
kept repeating verse of the, Bible

positively declined to give his name
and every time he was, asked to do
so. he said: st will not do 50 =
All efforts to get him to disclose his

Proved Beyond a Doubt.

Middlesex, N. Y, July 3.-(SpeciaD
That Rheumatism can be cured has
been proved beyond doubt by Mrs
Betsey A. Clswson, well known here.
That Mrs. Clawson had Rheumatism
and had 1t bad, all her acquaintances
know. They also knew she is now
cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills did It.
Mrs. Clawson tells the story of her
cure as follows:
Il was an invalid for most five years
caused by Inflammatory rheumatism,
helpless two-thirds of the time. The
first year could not do as much as a
baby could do, then l rallied little
bit and then relapse. Then year
ago the gout set in my hands and feet.
| suffered untold agony and in Au-
gust, 1908, when my husband died
could not ride to the grave.
Il only took two boxes of Dodd $
Kidney Pills and in two weeks | could
wait on myself and saw my own wood.
l dug my own potatoes and gathered
my own garden last fall Dodd's Kid
nelly Pills cured me-"
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
In the blood Dodd's Kidney Pills put
the Kidneys in shape to take all the
uric acid out of the blood.

to interest them in the information

clerk. "in fact have long wanted to
know, why it is that you ladies who
manage boarding houses always
choose such dark paper"
We'll" said the. prospective pur-
chaser, "if that is the only thing yov
want to know, you might just as wen
have got wise long ago. We like dark
paper because with that on the walls
the nails the boarders use to tack up
