CONVINCING Evidence,

Winthrop, CAL, Nov. goth Especially
"A plain and straightforward story
is always the most convincing. And
that is what has impressed us most
in reading the testimonials in regard
to Dodd's Kidney Pills. The expert
ence told by Davis Lewis of this place
bears the ring and stamp of truth
upon it. He says:-
81 was troubled for six months
with dull, heavy pains in the small
of my back, sometimes it passed into
my stomach, at other times up be-.
tween my shoulders. When it was
in my stomach was doubled up, and
hardly knew what to do for the pain.
I was advised to take all kinds of
remedies, and did so, but without get
ting any relief. Then some one told
me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills. l got
a box and began taking them. The
first few doses gave me relief, by the
time 1 had finished them all the pain
was gone and have been well ever
since"

to explain something that was not

Fall Work in the Orchard.

In our part of the country some of

carrying through the winter some Of

means, if left, of conveying the dis

A story that comes from Ireland re.
lates to the custom among farmers
there Of depositing money in the bank
in the joint names of husband and
wife, so that when one dies the sur.
vivor can draw out the money without
any legal formalities. To farmer
who recently made application for
money deposited for himself and his
wife, the manager of the bank asked:
"Why Pat, how can this be? 1t is not
much more than a year since you came
with an application on the death of
your wife" "Well, your honor" was

DISTRESS AFTER MEALS
Sure Sign That d. Williams Pink Pills
Are Needed to Tone Up the
Digestive OroanS.

Loss of appetite, distress after eating,
shortness of breath, feeling of utter
weakness-these are symptoms that are
familiar to most sufferers from stomach
trouble. Too often the ordinary DOCTORS
treatment serves but to weaken the dis
eased organs.
The new tonic method of treating dis
orders Of this kind does not aim to do the
work Of the stomach, does not demand
that the food be pre-digested, but builds
up the weakened organs, SO that they can
do the work that nature intended.

To Cure a Sucking Cow.

A writer in an unidentified exchange
says: "As all dairymen know, there
is probably no greater nuisance on a
dairy farm than COW or heifer ad.
dicted to the habit of sucking herself
and other animals in the herd. It is
not only the loss of the milk that is
sustained, but it would seem that one
such animal would induce others to
contract the habit. We have had our
share of trouble with heifers sucking
themselves and others of the dairy
herd. The fact Of our having trouble
in this respect has perhaps been for
the best since in endeavoring to cope
with 1t we have finally been enabled
to hit upon very practical means of
breaking the habit in every. instance.
The method is SO simple and easy Of
application as to put in the shade a
number of devices on the market, and
what is better, it is entirely satisfac-
tory. Proceed this way, and you VIII
have. fixed for good the most persist
ept sucker on the farm. Insert In the
sucking neifer's nose an ordinary bull
ring. Just before inserting the ring,
slip on it two common iron harness
rings-of course, the harness rings
are to- suspend loosely after the bull
ring has been inserted. This is the
trick Of It. BY adding more than one
loose ring, the animal can ia no way
prevent them from dropping in the
mouth when II attempts toisuck. Brass
