Mrs. J. l.. Cummings, 80 Elm street,
Barre, VT, says: about three years
ago | began to have serious attacks of
kidney trouble. The G;st symptom was
sharp pain just over my hips, some
times lasting for three days. During
these attacks ! could not sleep and it
was with the greatest difficulty that |

Kidney Pills, procured at browns drug

breecrl;ca1Inq Cannon.

The breechloading cannon were
among the earliest used. We find
them, on English and other ships as
early as tie last quarter of the four
tenth century, and therefore much
before the time of the buccaneers.
The cannon was a mere tube, bound
with heavy iron rings, and was load
ed by the insertion of the "gonne
chamber" an iron pan containing
the charge, which fitted into and
closed the breech. These guns were
very clumsy affairs in comparison
with the modern breechloader, but
the principle was the same.

News of Scandinavia
Principal Happenings of the Week
in the Scandinavian Countries.

There are many good people in the
Scandinavian countries that feel pref
ty uneasy about the increasing
strength Of the temperance element
and the prohibitionists. A few years
ago a number of prominent Nor
wegians started a society called For
Freedom and Culture and against Pro-
Inhibition and Coercian," as a means Of
checking the aggressive prohibition
propaganda. The object of the So
'ciety was too plain, and the public
soon learned to look upon it as a
booze concern. The ridicule heaped
upon the leaders vas too much, and
the society is as quiet as a mouse.
Under such circumstances it is inter-
esting to note that a similar society
has just been started in Sweden, even
the name having been borrowed from
the N~orwegians.
Herr Widell, head of the statistical
bureau of Sweden, suggested that at
tempts be made to establish an inter-
Scandinavian bureau of financial sta.
tistics and King Gustaf asked the
governments of Norway and Den
mark to send representatives to a
meeting in Stockholm for discussing
the matter. The invitation was &C
cepted by both parties, and Denmark
sent Mr.. Koefod and Norway Mr.. Kiar
to a meeting which was to be held in
Stockholm May 2.

A. fire at Provi station destroyed
over 1000 railroad ties, and some
cars standing on the track were also
damaged before the fire was put out.
August S%trindberg, the dramatist, is
very sick. But his pains do not pre-
vent him from taking active part in
discussing the nj in which his
plays are to be handled at the thea
tiers.
The latest historical research has
been questioning the theory that King
Gustaf II Adolf actually fell at what
is called "The Swedish Stone" at
Lutzen, Germany, and that his body
was kept and embalmed in the church
OF the little village of Meuchen, as
held by tradition. In connection with
this discussion it is interesting to note
that said church is being thoroly re.
paired and put in modern shape. Dur
ing this work a search was made for
the wooden urn in which, according
to tradition. was kept the blood
washed from the kings body, as we'll
as parts of his intestines. At the west
gable was found a cylindrical crypt
made of brick. 1t was about one foot
deep and one foot wide, and in this
We're found ONE decayed bits of
wood, a few rusty nails, and remains
of iron trimmings. 1t is certain that
these objects are remains of the
wooden urn which tradition has stuck
to for almost 800 years.

PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

-Four years ago I had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief. When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched like
poison. I would scratch those places
until they would bleed before l could
get any relief. Afterwards the places
would scale over, and the flesh I'M
derneath would look red and feverish.
Sometimes it would begin to itch until
it would waken me from my sleep,
and I would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.
I! Our physician pronounced 1t "dry
eczema" I used an ointment which
the doctor gave me, but 1t did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies. As this trouble has
been in u family for years, and is
considered hereditary. 1 felt anxious
to try to head it of. I got the Cuti-
cura Soap, Ointment and Pills, and
they seemed to be just what I needed.
The disease was making great
Roadway on my system until l got
the Cuticura Remedies which have
cleared my skin of the great pest.
From the time the eczema healed four
years ago, until now, I have never felt
any OF its pest, and I am thankful to
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment which
certainly cured me. I always use the
;Cuticura Soap for toilet, and 1 hope
other sufferers from skin diseases will
use the C%uticura Soap and Ointment
