IN THE NAME OF RELIGION!
Weird and Savage Rites INDUCED In
by the KhIysts, Sect Of
Russian Fanatics.

One of the queer religious sects or
the world Is the Christs or Khlysts or
Russia. They hold their meetings in
their churches with hundreds of men,
women and children attending. After
prayers and hymns that last until
midnight they begin a wild dance amid
sobs and groans. After this con-
tinues for a while they abandon their
garments and put on white robes and
white stockings. Candles are lighted,
and a new dance begins that consists
of rapidly revolving. the men to the
right, the women to the left.
In a short time a sort of madness
falls upon them. They leap, scream,
beat themselves and each other, In
dulge in wild laughter and cries, and
then begin to tear off the garments
with shouts Of 1T is coming, the Holy
Spirit is comingI" They begin to go
about on all fours, riding on one an
others backs, rolling about on the
floor, biting and scratching one an
other, and at last go entirely insane
and dash about until they fall ex-
hausted. BY dawn the church floor
is covered with naked men, women
and children. unconscious and blood
stained.

First-DOn't Delay. Second
Don't Experiment.


IF YOU suffer from backache;
headache or dizzy spells; if you
rest poorly and are lanquid in
the morning; if the kidney secre-
lions are irregular and unnatural
in appearance, do not delay. In
such cases the kidneys often
need help.
Doan's Kidney Pills are es-
pecially prepared for kidney
trouble. They are recommended
by thousands. Can Bradford
residents desire more convincing
proof of their effectiveness than
the statement of a Bradford
citizen who has used them and
willingly testifes to their worth?
Mrs H H Moore, Pleasant ST.,
Bradford, says: For the last
several years l have used Doan's
Kidney Pills and have always
found them very good. I have
used them for lame back and
weak kidneys and they never
failed to relieve me. Others of
my family have also used them
with excellent results. | am
glad to recommend them
