Rheumatic Pains

My mother is a great suf- ferer from rheumatism, and Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only remedy that relieves her."
 MRS. G. DAVENPORT.
 Roycefeld, N. ].
 The pains of rheumatism are almost invariably relieved with Dr. Miles Anti Pain Pills. They also overcome that nervous irri- tation which prevents sleep be- cause they soothe the nerves. To chronic suffers they are invalu- able. When taken as directed. they relieve the distress and save the weakening influence of pain, which so frequently pros trates. Many sufferers use them whenever occasion requires with the greatest satisfaction, why not you? They do not derangc the stomach nor create a habit. Why not try them? Get a pack age from your druggist. Take it according to directions and if 1t does not benefit he will return your money.

A great deal is being said in the newspapers about the boys who won prizes in the corn growing contest this year. But the boy who did not win a prize should re- member that his efforts have not heen in vain. Ernest effort in any hne of endeayor is beneficial, and is to be commended at all times.

The Democrats swept the eoun- try in the elections Tuesday, and as a result the next lower house of congress will be Democratic by at least 20 majority. New York has elected Democratic governor, as has also Massachusetts and New Jersey, and Harmon wins again in Ohio. But the Solid South" is broken by the election of a Re- publican governor in Tennessee, Hooper having defeated Bob Tay- Tor by at least Is, 900 majority.

Salt as a Medicine,

I have in the past seven or eight
years found the advantage Of putting
a little salt in oil the water l drink. 1
also put a little salt, with sugar and
milk, in every cup of tea, coffee or CO.
Goa I use.
I have been Il resident in the trop-
les for over forty years and except
for a sprained ankle have not had &C.
casiOn to call in a doctor or to take
any medicine in the last thirty years.
l believe every ones health in the
tropics would be very much better If
he used more salt. l find the benefit
of drinking a tumbler of cold water
with a little salt in it every morning
on rising at about s o'clock, before
my bath or cup of cocoa, which l
usually take between $50 and 6.
If people could be induced to try the
easy and cheap method Of taking a lit
tie common salt with the water they
drink they would in the generality Of
cases find that they would seldom re.
quire other medicine.-F. N. Burn in

DR.. JOHNSON.
He Never Said 4 Word About Taking q
Walk Down Fleet Street.

Hs Never Said a Word About Taking q
Walk Down Fleet Street.
The wit and wisdom of that great
man DR.. johnson were Of the sledge-
hammer order and invariably preceded
by "sir," so that it is comparatively
easy for any one who has acquired the
trick to invent a retort or remark in
the Johnsonian style. One Of the most
effective of these pseudo sayings of
the doctor is, "And now, SIR" said
DR.. Johnson, 1--WE will take a walk
down Fleet street." There can be but
little doubt that DR.. johnson did make
this remark, for he "a always walk
ing down Fleet street, but it is not
recorded that he did so. The saying is
due to George Augustus Sala. who
when the magazine Temple Bar was
being started by Mr.. Maxwell mag
ined a quotation from Boswell rs a
motto for the venture. The thing was
intended as a joke, but for a long
while it vas absolutely believed to be
a quotation from Boswell. and per-
haps there are still some who would
say unhesitatingly that DR.. Johnson
did say the words, so seemingly au-
thentic are they. However. Sala him.
self always acknowledged that he in
vented the phrase and added that to
the best of his knowledge and belief
DR.. Johnson had never said a word
about taking a walk down Fleet
street. There are other legends about
Johnson, however, which it is not so
easy to kill.-London Globe.

EE..t So -FL-- -. 49, .
For two weeks or more there has been
no startling developments published in
the Russell will trial. at Boston, and
most people think that the.:end is draw
ing cal.
A second claimant has put in. aft
davits of identity. He claims to be a
laborer, going under the nam of j. H.
Johnson. at Fresno. California.
When asked about the new claimant,
Senator Simpson said that he was not
surprised. He thought it was about
time they tried to spring something
new, but he wanted them to understand
that the only genuine Daniel Blake
Russell was his client.
Dr.. Hamilton, the handwriting ex-
pert, was on the stand again the past
week and gave the respondents some
thing to think about. He charged De-
tective Walker with preparing some of
the exhibits.
One of the Boston papers stated a
few days ago that the case would prob
ably be closed this week. .

A RattIesnaxe Story,


In "Life and Sport on the Pacific
Coast" Horace A. Vachell relates one
Of his narrow escapes from a friends
bullet. my cousin and I had been
camping and hunting for several days
in a sort Of paradise valley. One day
during a long ride on horseback we
hadS Seen a great many rattlesnakes
and killed a few, an exceptional ex-
perience. That night my cousin woke
up and saw by the light Of the moon
a big RATHER crawling across my chest.
He lay for a moment fascinated, hor.
ror struck, watching the sinuous curves
Of the reptile. Then he quietly reach.
ed for his six shooter, but he could not
see the reptiles head, and he moved
nearer, ~noiselessly, yet quickly, dread
ing some movement on my part that
should precipitate the very thing he
dreaded, and then he saw that it was
not a snake at all-only the black and
yellow stripe Of my blanket, which
gently rose and fell as I breathed.
Had he fired-well, it might have been
bad for me, for he confessed that his
hand shook"

And Thsy Didn't Exercise.

William M. Evarts, who lived until
he was nearly ninety, said he kept his
health by never taking exercise. The
celebrated DR.. William George Mead,
who lived to the surprising age Of 14s
years, spent nearly all Of his time In
the open air and played a little golf.
DR.. Mead used to drink two or three
quarts Of water every day, and perhaps
there is a suggestion in that. Old Du-
bois, who lived in Canada for the bet.
ter part Of 119 years on the north
shore of Lake Erie, never worked and
never took exercise. He spent seventy
Eve years Of his life fishing with hook
and line and ate nothing but baked ap-
pies and milk and brown bread and uin.
salted butter. Perhaps you can live
that long il you do nothing but fish
and eat what old Dubois did. But take
notice that these long livers never sx-
srcised.-New York Telegraph.

Death OF Nm. sPERBER
COMES VERY SUDDENLY

Wm. c. Sperbes Of Oakdale died at
s O'Clock Wednesday morning al the
Fisher hospital where he had been .
ceivine treatment for some weeks.
fiis death was a peculiar one. from
the fact that no was convalescins
splendidly from kidney trouble and an.
attack Of .pleurisy and It was expected
that he would have been able to leave
the hospital by the latter part Of the
week. at least. In this apparently we'll
condition he passed. away before. the
doctor could even reach his bedside.
Apoplexy may have been the cause.
Nj. Spesber vas q well-known ranches
in the Kildeer mountain country. He
came here from Minnesota about four
teen years ago and has been eneaded
in stock raising ever since. He was
postmaster at Oakdale for several years

an Efficient business man and made
GOOD financially while in Dunn county.

LAND CRABS.

Queer Creatures That Roam In For.
sats Far From the Sea.
One of the commOnest and the lar
gest Of the Christmas island land crabs
Is the well known robber crab, which
Is found in most Of the tropical islands
Of the Indian and Pacific oceans. It
sometimes reaches a length Of two feet
and may measure seven inches across
the back. Its colors are Of a very
gaudy description, the ground color be-
ing a bright red. upon which there are
stripes Of yellow, but in some cases a
purplish blue is the prevailing tint. >
The eyes are fixed on stalks which
car be moved Independently Of n an
other, and there are two pairs Of feel
ers, n long, the other short. The lat
ter pair are continually jerked up and
down. There is a pair Of powerful
claws, then several walking legs. In
general appearance these animals are
much more like rather stout Holsters
than crabs, and ones hrst encounter
with n of these creatures in the mid
die of a forest far from the sea is pro-
luctive Of much astonishment on both
sides:
Another species of land crab COM
mon in Christmas island is a little
bright red animal which In general
shape is much like the common shore
crab. This variety makes burrows in
the ground, and In some places the
soil is honeycombed with hundreds Of
holes. The crabs spend most of their
time collecting dead leaves, which they
carry in their claws, holding them up
over their heads and drag down into
their burrows, into which they scuttle
at the least alarm.-Pearsohs Maya,
