Easy to get, hard to get rid of; that is
what most sufferers think of dyspepsia.
They are astunished when their stomach
begins to trouble them seriously.
They had been eating hurriedly and
irregularly for long time, to be sure,
but they supposed their stomachs quite
used to that
Some people know that the strength
which the weak stomach needs, and for
the lack Of which the whole body is suf-
ferlng, can be found surely and quickly

"My Indigestion, said Mr. ]. r. Mil
Ter, OF Dayton, Va, "came i'll the first
place from the fact that few years ago
worked great deal at night, and ate
at any odd hour whenever the chance
came, and always very hurriedly. One
day found myself victim of terrible
dyspepsia 1t kept me miserable all the
time for several years.

it would hardly take any food. 1 had

oraanist's Note Went Astray.

This is a true story of lady
organist in a church not a thousand
miles from Tilton, New Hampshire:
On going into church one morning
she noticed that a new minister a
stranger, was in the pulpit. Previous
to this she had had considerable trou-
Bile because the blowboy would let the
wind out of the organ when she needed
it most. So she wrote a note, saying:
BLOW, blow hard; blow all the time
until tell you to stop" and calling the
blowboy, gave it to him.
The boy, supposing the note was
meant for the minister, without open
ing or reading it, carried it to the
pulpit. The minister's surprise and
the organist's confusion in conse-
quence were about equal.-Boston

suspect your kidneys, turn at once to
the great Kidney Specific-Dodds
Kidney Pills. You can do so with
every confidence. a few of Dodd
Kidney Pills taken in time have saved
many life. The early symptoms of
Kidney Disorder may be the forerun-
ners of Bright's Disease, Diabetes &ad

dent here, tells below how he treated
an attack of Kidney Trouble. He
says:-
Before I commenced taking Dodd's
Kidney Pills, l had always a tired
feeling every morning when l got out
of my bed. and my Kidneys were in
very bad shape. There was always
a dull heavy pain across my loins, and
l had hard work to stoop. l took two
boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills, the tired
feeling and back pains have entirely
gone, and l am now cured"

FOUR YEARS OF AGONY.
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
Had to Use crutches-"cuticura
Remedies the Best on Earth"

In the year 1899 the side of my
right foot was cut off from the little
toe down to the heel, and the physi-
clan who had charge of me was try
ing to sew up the side of my foot, but
with no success. At last my whole
foot and way up above my calf was
nothing but proud flesh. l suffered un-
told agonies for four years, and tried
different physicians and all kinds of
ointments. l could walk only with
crutches. In two weeks afterwards /
saw change in my limb. Then l be-
gan using Cuticura Soap and Ointment
often during the day, and kept it up
for seven months, when my limb was
healed up just the same as If never
had trouble. 1t is eight months now
since l stopped using Cuticura Rene
dies, the best on Gods earth. l am
working at the present day after five
years of suffering. The cost Of Cuti-
cura Ointment and Soap was only Sc,
but the doctors bills were more like
$500. John NJ. Lloyd, us S. Arch Ave,
