ao} HIS ONE WEAK SPOT, Prominent Minnesota Merchant Cured to Stay Cured by Doan’s Kidney Pills, O. C. Hayden, of O. C. Hayden & Co., dry goods merchants, of Albert Lea, Minn., says: “I was so lame that I could hardly walk. There was an unac- countable weakness of the back, and constant pain and aching. I could find no rest and was very uncomfortable at night. As my health was good in every other way, I . could not understand ris trouble. It was just as if all the! strength had gone from my back. After suffering for some time I began using Doan’s Kidney Pills. The rem- edy acted at once upon the kidneys, and when normal action was restored, the trouble with my back disappeared. I have not had any return of it.” For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. “Mamma ,I want to see papa.” “No, dear,” her mother replied; “your father is busy and must not be disturbed.” “But, mamma.” the child persisted, “I want to see him.” As before, the mother replied: “No; your father must not be disturbed.” “Mamma,” declared her daughter, solemnly, “I am a sick woman, and J want to see my minister.” PATENTS.

Speaker Cannon, on his seventieth birthday, referred in a jocular way to the precocity of th etwentieth century child. “Why, before long,” he said, “we shall hear of the baby that has just been weaned, turning to its nurse and saying: “‘T have had every reason to be satisfied with your past services, and shall not fail to recommend you among my acquaintances. Pray ac cept this dollar for yourself.’” TOO BIG A FIELD. Extinguisher Only Designed for Earth- ly Use. Years ago, while Rev. Mr. Standa- loupe was a student at the seminary, he undertook, one vacation season, to sell fire extinguishers. His pleasing address and affability enabled him to make many sales However, he encountered the usual rebuffs which are the experience of all agents. The theological student had gained access into the office of a surly broker, and forthwith began expatiating on the deluging powers of his incom. parable fire extinguisher. “To hell with it!” roared the broker, fiendishly. “Oh, my dear man,” expostulated Standaloupe, “this extinguisher does not deserve the extreme virtue with which you credit it.” —Harper’s Week. ly. DIDN'T BELIEVE That Coffee Was the Real Trouble. Some people flounder around and take everything that’s recommended but finally find that coffee is the real cause of their troubles. An Oregon man says: “For 25 years I was troubled with my stomach. I was a steady coffee drinker, but didn’t suspect that as the cause. I took almost anything which some one else had been cured with but to no good. I was very bad last summer and could not work at times. “On Dec. 2, 1902, I was taken so bad the doctor said I could not live over 24 hours at the most, and I made all preparations to die. I could hardly eat anything, everything dis- tressed me, and I was weak and sick all over. When in that condition cof- fee was abandoned and I was put on Postum; the change in my feelings came quickly after the drink that was poisoning me was removed. “The pain and sickness fell away from me and I began to get well day by day, so I stuck to it until now I am well and strong again, can eat heartily, with no headache, heart trouble or the awful sickness of the old coffee days. I drink all I wish of Postum without any harm and enjoy it immensely. “This seems like a strong story, but I would refer you to the First Nat'l Bank, the Trust Banking Com- pany, or any merchant of Grant’s Pass, Ore., in regard to my standing and I will send a sworn statement of this if you wish. You can also use my name.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Still there are many who persist- ently fool themselves by saying “Cof- fee don’t hurt me.” A ten days’ trial of Postum in its place will tell the truth and many times save life. “There's a reason.” ce Pi rah pre-tem °This is ‘Nama toe ie Se ee “The Road one, itn | rf IN FAR NORTHLAND Tid-Bits of News for Scandinavians. BRITISH WRITERS TOUR SWEDEN A New “Entente Cordial” Is the Re- sult. As one of the delegates of the Swed- ish Press club I have accompanied a party of twenty British journalists on a journey through Sweden, which they had undertaken on the invitation and as the guests of the Swedish Press club, an organization which embraces the whole press of Sweden. It had long been felt that a closer contact between the Swedish and the British press was wanted. At the In- ternational Congress of Journalists, 1897, when the pre&s of almost all civ- ilized countries “met in Stockholm, Great Britain and Ireland was not rep- resented Since then there has not been any opportunity for the Swedish journalists to meet their British col- leagues. Late last year, however, a proposal was made in the Press club in Stockholm to send an invitation to a limited number of prominent Eng- lish journalists to visit Sweden dur- ing this summer. This was carried unanimously, and in April a delegate was sent over to London with a noffi- cial invitation, which was accepted by nine leading London dailies and seven prominent provincial papers, as well as from three Irish and one Scotch. All these papers were represented by the most prominent men of their staff; in some cases the chief editors came themselves. As the connecting link between the Swedish Press club and the British press the British Institute of Journalists acted, the president of which institution, Maj. G. F. Grat- wickt, also joined the party. Of course King Oscar received tlie, British newspaver men and showed them round .the royal palace. Every interesting point in the country was visited by our guests. From the beginning to the end it can be said that the tovr was one of the most successful that could be im- agined. The best fellowship was reigning the whole time between not only the Swedish journalists and their English colleagues, but between the whole Swedish nation and our Eng- lish guests. Our country and its insti- tutions were a revelation to the Brit- ons. Scarcely any of them had any idea that we were. so up-to-date in everything, in several things even ahead of the mighty island empire They were greatly taken by the kind- liness of the poputstion. I will give you an instance which struck us forcibly. While we were traveling on the canal steamer some small bare- footed urchins of the poorest class ran along the canal bank and offered some wild flowers to one of the Englishmen. He took them and wanted to give the boys some money, but they refused. They could not take anything from one who was the guest of the coun- try. Already the descriptions of the tour have begun to appear in the English press, and I dare say that this opening up of a new “entente cordial” will be of great importance not only to Swed- en, but also in a certain degree to Great Britain and Ireland, who thus will become mofe intimately acquaint- ed with a country and a nation of whose resources and gualities they have been deplorably ignorant.—Hugo Vallentin in Minneapolis Journal. HONORS FOR SKREFSRUD. His Work in Santhalistan Is Officially Recoanized. L. O. Skrefsrud, the Norwegian mis- sionary who has spent a lifetime in Christianizing and civilizing the na- tives of Santhalistan, India, has been decorated by the British government with the Kaisar-i-Hind medal for pub- lic service in India, first-class. The work done by Missionaries Borresen and Skrefsrud in Santhalistan has long been appreciated by the Indian officials, and although the two men re- ceived no particular recognition they stood high in the esteem of the offi- cials and were accorded high praise at least. The argument so often heard that foreign missions are barren of practical results is not true in San- thalistan at least, where a large num- ber of the natives have been lifted from the most abject savagery to comparative industry and prosperity. HAAKON AT BERGEN. Lays Cornerstone of the Splendid New Theater. King Haakon laid the ~foundation stone of the new Bergen theater last Wednesday and made a fine address The city was profusely decorated with flags, garlands and evergreens. The royal guests left in the evening, when huge bonfires blazed from the sum- mits of the seven mountains near Bergen. Those on Floifjeldet were arranged so as to form the letters “H” and “M” outlined in flames and 300 feet high. This was the farewell greeting to their majesties, Upton Sinclair's book, “The Jun- gle,” has been translated into Swedish and is being published, with many illustrations, by the Excelsior Publish- ing aouse of Stockholm.

CULLOM, Senior United States Rounding into the last week of the Miinois primary campaign, the inter: est of the politicians of both parties in the probable result is intense. In both the Republican and Democratic organizations the question of faction- al supremacy; as well as the nomina- tion of candidates, is at stake. Which- ever side wins in the coming struggle will have control of the party machin- ery ‘in the presidential campaign of 1908. Among Republicans the result in Cook county will be awaited with deep interest by the leaders out in the state. The vote on the candidates of the United States senate in Cook eounty will be a large factor in de- termining the result. As to the senatorial contest in Cook county opinions differ. By some of the close friends of Gov. Dineen it is declared that Yates will receive a vote that will surprise by its magni- tude. On the other hand, the support- ers of Cullom assert that the senior senator will have a large majority of the popular vote and will carry all but two of the nineteen senatorial districts in Cook county. senator from Illinois. FORMER GOV. RICHARD YATES of Illinois, who is conducting a sensa- tional campaign for Cullom’s seat in the senate. HON. FRANCIS M. COCKERELL. In spite of the fact that he is more than seventy-two years of age, Francis Marion Cockrell, former senator from Missouri, now a member.of the inter- state commerce commission, is one of the hardest workers in the public service. When a member of the upper KEFPS UP STRENUOUS PACE. | & ‘ house of congress, where he served for thirty years, Senator Cockerell was regarded as one of the most in- dustrious members of that body. He was constant in his attendance upon the sessions of the senate, and never missed a committee meeting. Mr. Cockerell is taking these habits of in- dustry into the interstate commerce commission, and has become so inter- ested in the preparations now being made for the enforcement of the new railroad rate law that he has declined to take a vacation. “I think I'll stay here all summer,” said Commissioner Cockerell. “There is plenty to do here. It is true that the weather is hot as blazes, but then I am from Missouri, and I can stand ft-7 Mr Cockrell is one of the first to reach the offices of the interstate com- merce commission every day, and the last to leave. His luncheon consists of two apples and a glass of milk, and this has been his midday diet for many years. Although he has. been in harness for more than half a century, Senator Cockerell, judging from his appearance, has a good many years be- fore him. a~—ee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrorooooo3 ure Thumb Prints in the Army.

She Was the Red-Headed Janitress; That Was Enough. She walked into a branch bank on upper Broadway and pushed the check through the paying teller’s window. “You will have to be identified,” said he. “I don’t know you, madame.” “You don’t, eh?” said the woman, with fire in her eyes. “Aren’t you the father of the Smith family that has a flat in the Pileremin apartments?” “Y-e8.” “Well, I’m the red-headed janitress that your wife’s always complaining about. When you left home this morning I heard you say: ‘Emily, if our children get fighting with that old fury in the basement don’t quarrel with her. Wait till I get home and let me talk to her.’ Now, if you think you can get the best of an argument with——” “Here’s your money, madam,” said the paying teller, and she took it and went. Nothing Succeeds Like “EGG-O-SEE.” The man who preaches the best ser mon; the man who tells the funnies stories; the man who keeps the bes store; or the man who makes the bes goods soon finds that people come to him. Merit is the best advertisement in the world. People speak well of things they know are good. They pass the good word along. The best breakfast food is EGG-O- SEE, for it contains all the life-giving properties o)mature’s best food, which is wheat. EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the thousands of wives and mothers who use it in their homes, for these good women tell their neighbors about this great food. ] Children and aged persons alike are friends of EGG-O-SEE. Merit and common sense are the things that advertise EGG-O-SEE most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10- cent package contains ten liberal breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE. is sold every- where. Grocers must keep it if they want to keep their good customers, for good customers insist on buying EGG-O-SEE. The fact that no, preparation, no cooking is required, makes EGG-O- SEE very popular. Open the package; put as much as you like in a dish; pour on milk or cream and eat. It is delicious. It is wholesome. It makes you strong. A lot of interesting facts about EGG-O-SEE have been published in book form entitled, “Back to Nature.” This book also has a course of phys- ical culture—fully illustrated.

People who visited the zoo on the Fourth greatly annoyed the keeper of the sea cow, a new acquisition, by poking it with canes or pencils. Ex- hausted by his efforts to stop the prac- tice, he engaged a tramp for 50 cents and told him to keep track of how many people looked at the manatee. At 6 o’clock the keeper looked up his substitute. “There’s been more than 5,000 peo- ple here,” said the latter. I haven’t time to reckon up the exact number yet, and won’t until I audit my books.” “Where’s the paper you kept your atcounts on?” asked Stephen, the keeper. “I didn’t have any paper,” answered the hobo, as if proud of his ingenuity, “but I had a gpyod soft lead pencil and kept tab on the sea cow’s back.” He pointed to the patient manatee, the back of which resembled a black- board in a country school house after the annual examination.—Cincinnati Cor.

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- cian 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. I suffered un- told agonies for four years, and tried different physicians and all kinds of ointments. I could walk only with crutches. In two weeks afterwards I saw a change in my limb. Then I 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 I never had trouble. It is eight months now since I stopped using Cuticura Reme- dies, the best on God’s earth. I am working at the present day after five years of suffering. The cost of Cuti- curia Ointment and Soap was only $6, but the doctors’ bills. were more like $600. John M. Lloyd, 728 S.
