Cured Her Rheumatism.

Deep Valley, Pa, Oct. 2d.-(Spe-
cial.)-There is deep interest in Green
county over the cure of the little
daughter Of l. n. Whipkey of Rheuma,

five or six years and nothing seemed
to do her any good till she tried
Dodd's Kidney Pills. She began to
improve almost at once and now she
is cured and can run and play as other
children do. Mr.. Whipkey says:
81 am indeed thankful for what
Dodd's Kidney Pills have done for my
daughter; they saved her from being
a cripple perhaps for life"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have proved
that Rheumatism is one of the results

Some Words of Counsel.

Gallant rescues of fair young ladies
by brave young men are the order of
the day at the bathing resorts. In the
routine of romance, as the accounts
commonly run, there are tears Of graf
itude, the hasty avowal, and the happy
wedding day. Now, if this sort Of
casual life-saving is to take rank as
a summer industry, ought it not to be
kept free from sentimental conse-
quences? Ought the dashing young
hero as he plunges through the waves
to catch the beautiful young heroine
by the hair as she goes under for the
third time TO be burdened with doubts
as to whether his income is sufficient
to support two? 1t is likely to chill
the stoutest heart that ever breasted
the sea to have to ask itself at so crit
ical a moment whether the drowning
girl may not belong to a different So
cial set, whether her parents may not
have plans for her future. A man may
stand ready, as a matter of course, to
brave any perils to save a woman's
life and still desire leisure to consider
whether the time has come to abandon
his bachelor habits and live in a fat.

Modern Social Demands.

One curious phase Of taking our
selves so seriously is the enormously
increased importance of the interest,
ing. Society fairly bristles with the
interesting. Sometimes one wonders
where the uninteresting do. Modern
society demands that you should be
something or do something, or say
something, or at least pretend to. II
is understood that you must be cele'
brated or notorious, or well adver.
tised. or cheeky and ever dishonest
If it is on a magnificent scale. At any
rate, you must take yourself seriously

FOX, HAWK AND CAT.
Mix-Up Resulted Di%sastrousIy for Bird
of Prev.

of Prey.
Foxes are not easily domesticated.
They are %distrustful creatures, and al
ways pine for freedom; but in rare in
stances reynard loses his wildness and
responds, after a fashion of his own,
to human kindness. Of such a one a
daily paper tells a pretty story:
Ned is a tame fox SO well trained
and of such good intentions that he
will not touch any OF the poultry on
the place. Chickens feed near his box,
and he acts as if he liked their society.
Doubtless they serve to render his
confinement less irksome.
One morning recently a large chick
en-hawk swooped down and caught a
chicken close to the box where the
fox is chained. Ned, hearing the noise,
sprang out and caught the hawk by
the leg. The bird released the chick
en- and settled its free claw deep into
the fox's nose Reynard %squealed, but
he hung to the hawks leg.
AT this moment q cat that had be-
come attached to the fox heard Ned's
cries OF pain, and rushing out she
sprang upon the hawk and clawed its
back. That made the hawk let go the
fox's nose very suddenly to protect
itself from this new foe. 1t tried to
claw the cat, and while thus engaged,
the fox set his teeth into its head and
shook the life out of it.
Soon after this Ned and the cat were
seen lying down side by side, in great
amity and contentment.-Youth's Com.

AIMING METHODS OF AMERICA
Why Production Here 10 Larger Per
Capita Than Aboard.

Il Is not dificult to understand the
manufacturing supremacy of the Unit
ed States when one compares our coal
production statistics with those Of for
eign countries, says the Boston Tran
script. The country having q cheap
supply of fuel for steam purposes will
lead in manufacturing. There are
employed in the coal mines of Great
Britain nearly 100000 men, and they
produced last year a coal product val
ued at 100000 900 more than that of
this country. Yet with less than $751;
900 coal miners in the United States
we produced $4,000, 900 tons more Of
coal than did Great Britain. With us
there is an average production per
miner of a little less than 1000 tons
Of coal per annum. Great Britain
produces 287 tons per capita, Germany
242 tons. France 1913 tons. and Bel
GUM 166 tons.
These figures show the immense
superiority of the American coal min.
er, yet mine owners testify that 1t is
due to methods rather than men, as
the British miners who come here
make our best workmen. The differ
ence is that Great Britain largely
clings to the antiquated method Of
pick mining, while here steam has
taken the place Of muscle and powder
has been substituted for picks. In
the thicker coal seams there is no
longer any pick work and the physical
exercise of drilling is no longer neces-
sary.
Yet there is another side to the
matter. The mortality from accidents
in the Illinois coal mines last year
was 2.87 per 1000 men employed,
which is n and one-half times the
percentage of fatal accidents in Brit
ish mines. 1t is evident that some
means should be taken to reduce the
death rate and it has been suggested
that blasts should not be made while
the miners are still at work, but
should be set off after hours by men
chosen for this dangerous occupation.

Tins Lead to Bribes.

At the recent convention in Ham.
burg of the Coal Dealers association
of Germany a number of delegates
spoke on the practice of tipping and
bribing. They complained that stokers

large establishments of any kind must
be given bride money. or have their
influence used against the coal deal.
ers to prevent the securing of new or.
ders. The delegates urged the neces.
sity Of taking measures to abolish
the nefarious practice. Americans
travelling in Europe find the tipping
abuse very annoying. The tipping evil
has undoubtedly led to the bribery
method which now has become SO yex.
atious to business people.

I drank was to blame. That seemed

LOSS or APPETITE
Cold Swsats, TwitchIng Nerves and
Weakness Cured by Or. Wtnlams'
Pink Pills.

Pink Pills.
Nature Furnishes every ~infraction OF
her laws, and careless habits easily lead
to the condition described by Mr. VIII
liam Browne, of No. 1919 Lincoln street,
St. Joseph, Nc. Mr.. Browne is an ex-
pert timer in the employ Of the National
Biscuit Co. He gives the following ac-
count of q trying experience:
"In the spring of 1902" he says,
I" while I was regularly working at my
trade, I grew somewhat careless in my
habits of eating and drinking, and finally
found that my appetite was tickle, a bad
taste fingered in my mouth, my nerves
twitched and were beyond my control,
my kidneys were out OF order and cold
sweats would break out over my body as
odd times. Perhaps, while l stood talk.
ing with some one, this trembling
of the limbs, and p~rofuse sweating, and
q severe chill would seize me. l became
alarmed at my condition and, having
read an Endorsement of Dr. Williams
Pink Pills, I got a box and began to use
them. They helped me at once. After
I had used one box the twitching OF the
nerves, the trouble with the stomach
and the cold sweats stopped and have
not reappeared, and my appetite is good.
Ihave told all my friends that DR.. Viii.
liams' Pink Pills cured me and l recom-
mend them to everybody"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cured Mr..
Browne because nothing can strengthen
the nerves except good rich. red blood
and DIR. Williams Pink Pills actually
make new blood. They don't act on the
bowels. They don't bother with mere
symptoms. They drive from the blood
the cause of anamia, indigestion, ner.
yous disorders, general weakness and
the troubles of growing girls and women.
