Daughtrey, music publisher, of Suffolk, Va., says: “During two or three years that I had kidney trouble I passed 2% pounds of gravel and sandy sediment in the urine. I haven't passed a stone since using Doan’s Kidney Pills, however, and that was three years ago. I used to suffer the most acute agony during a gravel attack, and had the other usual symptoms of kidney trouble—lassitude, headache, pain in the back, urinary disorders, rheumatic pain, etc. I have a box con- taining 14 gravel stones that I passed, but that is not one-quarter of the whole number. I consider Doan’s Kid- ney Pills a fine kidney tonic.” For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. ¥. Plan for Good Health!

CARRIED FOR LUCK ALMOST EVERY ONE HAS A POCKET TRINKET. Showing Mild Form of Superstition From Which Few Men Are Free— Some of Them Have Inter- esting History. The tailor was industriously brush- Ing and steaming a pile of garments. On the pressing table lay a little heap of trinkets. Testing his iron with a deft touch of his moistened finger, he placed it back on the sputtering little gas stove ‘to ‘heat. Then ‘he answered the question about the pile of trinkets. ‘ “Oh, those,” he said, “why, they come from the pockets of clothing sent here to be cleaned or pressed. Nearly every man has his ‘rabbit’s foot.’ No matter how staid a busi- bess man he may be, nor how strong- ly he would deny that he was super- btitious, he almost invariably has a pocket piece that he carries for luck. Look at this little piece of flint. It would be hard to explain the reason for carrying it. Yet I know that the owner of that checked suit over there, a business man, must prize the little rock, for no matter what pocket I put it in when I return the suit, it is al- ways in the lower left-hand pocket of the waistcoat when the suit comes A Collection of Good Luck Pieces. around for its regular pressing. He evidently don’t want to lose it, and as it has no apparent beauty or util ity, it must be ‘good luck.’ “This penny dated 1888 has been in one of my customer’s clothes for two years. One day my curiosity got the upper hand and I laid it aside and didn’t return it with his clothes. The very next day he came in at the noon hour and inquired for the coin, giving the date and describing a mi- eroscopic scratch that I had not no- ticed. I handed him the penny and in a burst of confidence he told me ‘the why’ of its preciousness. One day it was up to him to decide a deal quickly. He was up against it— didn’t know what was advisable. Should he sell or buy? He struggled with his indecision and in desperation he flipped the penny and it said sell. He sold and cleared a good margin. “That 1888 penny wanders from one suit to another, but it is never lost. I suppose that similar stories would explain the most of these buttons, bits of metal, knotted rubber bands and all the other pocket junk you see here. They are amulets. Yet we make sport of the ignorant heathen.” In the pile were: A brass button from a soldier's uniform, a_ horse chestnut, a dozen coins, a baby’s tooth, a dried bug, several pebbles and shells, an empty brass revolver cart- ridge, a safety pin, a leaden bullet, a glass bottle stopper, several rings, a brass screw, three horseshoe nails, a shoe button, a woman's’. broken ‘brooch, a medal and a tiny gold cross Crocodile Captured Slave Trader. The trade in slaves has_ entirely ceased in Sokoto, but in Banchi there was a recrudescence of it, due to fa- mine, the people preferring to sell themselves as slaves rather than starve as freemen. Ten years ago, it is recalled, the en- tire Angass tribe sold themselves into slavery, but when the famine is over they take the first opportunity to desert. In the province of Muri famine gave a great impetus to the trade in children, who were sold for food. One grim incident is recorded: “The canoes,” says the report, “travel by night and are concealed by day. One, which was discovered in a back- water, with 22 children on board, was pushed out into midstream by the traders and apparently purposely cap- sized. The slave traders swam for the bank, but one was held by the leg by a crocidile and captured; 12 children were drowned.” Essence From Orange Leaves. One of the industries of Paraguay is the preparation of essence of orange leaves. More than 160 years ago the Jesuit priests who then ruled that secluded country imported orange seeds and planted groves, which have now become immense forests, ‘filled with small establishments for extract- ing the essence. This is exported to France and the United States for use in soap and perfumery making. Minneapolis GRAIN COMMISSION.

One of the Important Duties of Physicians and the Well-Informed of the World is to learn as to the relative standing and reliability of the leading ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians are the most careful as to the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig Syrup correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of its product has attained to the high standing in sc is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy.

MEN ADMIRE a pretty face, a good figure, but sooner or laterlearn that the healthy, happy, contented woman is most of all to be admired. Women troubled with fainting spells, irregularities, nervous irrita- bility, backache, the ‘‘blues,” and those dreadful dragging sensations, eannot hope to be happy or popular, and advancement in either home, business or social life is impossible. The cause of these troubles, how- ever, yields quickly to Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs. It acts at once upon the organ afflicted and the nerve centers, dispelling effec- ‘tually all those ‘distressing symp- toms. No other medicine in the country has received such unqualified indorsement or has such a record of cures of female ills as has Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Miss Emma Runtzler, of 631 State St., Schenectady, N, Y., writes:— “For a long time I was troubled with a weakness which seemed to drain all my strength away. I had dull headaches, was nervous, irritable, and all worn out, Chancing to read one of your advertisements of a case similar to mine cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, I decided to try it and I eannot express my gratitude for the benefit received. Iam entirely well and feel like a new person.” - Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is the most successful remedy for all forms of Female Complaints, Weak Back, Falling and Displacements, Inflammation and Ulceration, and is invaluable in pre- paring for childbirth and the Change of Life. Mrs, Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women * Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass.
