A MAN GIVES EVIDENCE
His Testimony Will Interest Every
Middlebury Reader

The value of local evidence is indis-
putable. 1t is the kind of evidence we
accept as true because we know we
can prove it for ourselves There has
been plenty of such evidence " the
Middlebury papers lately, and this
straightforward testimony has estab-
lished a confidence in the minds OF
Middlebury people that will not be
easily shaken.
Thomas Dobson, Sc Pleasant ST.,
Middlebury, says: "For a number OF
years 1 have used Doan's Kidney Pills
for my back and kidneys. My back
gave me no end of trouble and when !
stopped over, my back was so bad
thought it would break. My kidneys
acted too frequently at night and the
secretions burned in passage. | used
few boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills and
they cured me. Now whenever l am
bothered l always rely on Doan's for
they always cure me up in short order

The tradition assembling to the Arab
horse extraordinary endurance is suS-
tanned by abundant evidence. II. H..
Bush-BroWn, who presents the case
for the Arab in the Journal of Heredi-
~. offers an explanation of the extra
ordinary endurance of animals of this
Lreed based in part on the fact that
the Arab has only five lumbar verte'
hrae (betWeen the ribs and the pelvis)
while all other families of horses have
six. This difference in structure Is
believed to explain why the Arab,
though small, can carry great weight,
The anomaly illustrates the relation
between structure and function.

Elizabeth, the Good Queen BeSs'
of England, whose reign from 1893 to
1908 was one of the most glorious
periods in the history of her country,
was the daughter of Henry VIII and
his second wife, the famous Anne
Boleyn. When Anne fell from favor
and was beheaded, the young princess
was declared illegitimate and for a
time had an unhappy life. Finally,
however, she was given her place in
the succession, after Edward and
Mary, and during Edwards reign she
lived peaceful life. While Mary was
on the throne Elizabeth was more or
less an object of suspicion, for it was
we'll known that she had been brought
up a Protestant, but at Marys death
In 1858 her right to the throne was
unquestiOned. The great issue con
fronting her was that of religion. She
restored Professionalism, reinstated the
English Book of Common Prayer and
asserted the royal supremacy over the
church, but she avoided fanaticlsm
and showed herself willing to call to
