q lT MUST BE WELL FOUNDED STEADY GROWTH IN POPULARâ€" ITY OF DODD’S KIDNEY PILLS. Made by Cures Like that of Simon V. Landryâ€"He Tells About it Himself. River Bourgois, Richmond 00., C. 11â€"July 3.â€"(Special).â€"Among the many men in this part of Canada whom Dodd’s Kidney Pills have reâ€" lieved of aches and pains and weak- ness and made strong and able to do a good day's work is Mr. Simon V. Landry. Mr. Landry has numeronls friends here who can vouch for the story he tells of his cure. "I was bothered for over a year." he says, "with lame back, Weak legs. palpitation of the heart, gen- eral weakness and shortness of breath; in fact I could not work‘ and was a total wreck. "I could not get anything to help lne till I tried Dodd’s Kidney Pills. But they (lid me good and no mis- take. I used three boxes and I'm back at work again." It is the cures they make that make Dodd’s Kidney Pills so popu- lar. Their popularity has grown steadily for thirteen years. It must, be well founded. .._.____+__._ RAILWAY COLLISIONS. The figures showing the number of fatalities in collisions alone on Unitâ€" ed States railways are appalling and show a. constant increase in recent years. They are given by the Inter~ State Commission, as follows: Passengers: Killed.

For the first three months there were 221 killed and 2,797 injured in rail- way catastrophes. These are the only figures compiled for the curâ€" rent year by the commission. __ __+.. PRIZE MONEY OF OLD DAYS. Sea battles at the present time do not result in such great rewards of prize money as formerly. English sailors in times past have brought great fortunes home after their sucâ€" cessful cruises. In the war with Hol- land, 1651-54, English ships are. said to have taken 1,700 prizes, worth $30,00,000. In 1657 the Spaniards loaded British sailors with treasure. They seized two of the Spanish gal- leons so richly laden with gold and jewels that it took thirty-eight Wagons to carry the treasure from Portsmouth to London. In 1761 came the historic capture of the Her- SMOKE ALL THE TIME. The Dutch Get their Smoking Re- markably Cheap. The I-Iollandcrs are, perhaps, of all the Northern peoples, those who smoke the most. The humidity of their climate makes it almost a the very moderate renders it accessible necessity, and cost of tobacco to all. To show how deeply rooted is the habit, it is enough to say that the boatsmcn of the ll‘Oksllflil, the aquatic diligence of Holland, meas- ure distances by smoke. From here, they say, to such a place it is, not so many miles, but so many pipes. When you enter a house, after the first salutations, your host offers l . {you a Cigar; when you take leave, . he, hands you another, and often inâ€" sists upon filling your cigar case. In the. streets you sec persons lighting a. fresh cigar wifh the burn~ ing stump of the last one, without pausing in their walk, and with the busy air of people who do not wish to lose a moment of time or a mouthful of smoke. Many go to sleep with pipe in mouth, relight it in the morning before they step out of bed. . It really does appear that smoking is for the Dutchman a necessary vital function. Many people think that so much smoke dulls the intelligence Nev- ertheless, if there be a people, as Esquiroz justly observes, whose in- tOIICCt is of the clearest and highest precision, it is the Dutch people. “Smoke,” said a Hollander, "is our second breath.” Another defined the cigar as the sixth finger of the hand.

A certain lady had such a passion for smoking and for coloring meerchaum pipes of this description from shops. In the flat which she occupied there were found no fewer than 2,600 pipes, not one of which, it is believed, she paid for, Tested by Timeâ€"In his justlyâ€"celeâ€" brated I’ills Dr. Parmelec has given to the world one of the most unique incdl- cincs offered to the public in late years.

A minister speaks of the curious effect of Grapeâ€"Nuts food on him and how it has relieved him. “You will doubtless understand how the sullcl‘ing with indigestion ,with which I used to be troubled made my work an almost unendur- able burden, and why it was that after my Sabbath duties had been performed, sleep was a stranger to my pillow till nearly daylight. “I had to be very careful as to what I ate, and even with all my care I experienced poignant physical distrer after meals, and my food never satisfied me.

Converts who are admitted into the “Order of the Sun,” which is the professor's name for his new colony, are required to live on cocoaâ€"nuts.

Boots are only worn in China by officials, Servants, soldiers, sailors, and special hobâ€"nailed boots, occa- sionally in wet weather, by the coniâ€" mon people. The universal form of footâ€"covering is a shoe, whilst coolâ€" ies and the poorest classes have to content themselves with straw (:r leather sandals, or go barefoot. Women‘s shoes are made at home and, except in isolated cases in Shanghai, are never exposed for sale in shops. This remark does not apâ€" ply t0 the peculiar form of shoe worn by Manchu women, which is perched on a sort of small stilt. In the north, during the winter months, the ordinary boot or shoe is often wadded or lined with sheepskin. and of late, years reproductions of f‘binâ€" ese boots and shoes in indiarubbcr have been imported from the United States and Germany, and found favor with Chinese at the Treaty ports. _...+___ Dolly was out for a walk and met an old friend of her father.

America naturally claims that the New York Times building, with its thirtyâ€"one storeys and an area of 116.319 square feet, holds the record. This, however, is no longer the case. The magnificent edifice recently built for the produc- tion of the Scotsman (Edinburgh) puts the former building completely in the shade, for although it can only boast thirteen storeys, yet it possesses an area of 261,787 square feet.
