THOMPSON’S DROPSY. it Startcll with Bm-luu-hc and grew Worse till the Doctor said She Must Die. Holt, Ont., May 17. (Special).â€" All the countryside here is ring- ing with the Wonderful cure of Mrs. Samuel Thompson, who lay at the point of death for weeks, swollen with Dropsy so that the doctor ï¬ve different times decided to tap her, but. desisted because. as her hus< band said, "It might be better to let her die in peace." After the doctor had given her up Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her. Mrs. Thompson’s terrible trouble started with a pain in the back. She grew worse, and the doctor treated her for jaundice for «eight weeks. Then her foot and legs bc~ gun to swell, and it was realized that Dropsy was the trouble. For seven months she suffered. The doctor said there was no hope; she must die. As a last resort. Dodd's Kidney Pills were tried. The improvement. was slow but gradually her strength came back. Toâ€"day Mrs. Thomp< son is a well woman. She says, and the countryside knows. she owes her life to Dodd‘s Kidney Pills. If the disease is of the Kidneys, or from the Kidneys, Dodd's Kidâ€" ney Pillis will cure it. fl____ PLUOKING THE QSTRICH. Have you ever been on an ostrich- ifarm'.’ Perhaps not; but you wear an ostrich-plume in your Sunday hatl If you don‘t you‘would like to; so you will appreciate a few facts about the winged benefactor of womankind. OstriclufeatherS are not plucked, but “clipped,†and during the process the animal roars like a house aï¬re. Sometimes he kicks out, and the best plan to escape his pedal extremities is to fall flat on the ground. In order to cambat this dangerous habit, ostrichâ€"farmers usually drive the ostriches into “plucking-boxes.†These are little pens made for the purpose, and are just large enough for one ostrich to stand in. After the door is shut, the bird cannot kick, as the sides are too high. and 'he is kept quiet by means of a great cloth mitten, which isdrawn over his head. The feathers are retrieved with shears, and in a little time the 'ostrich recovers his equanimity.†_+____ SIMILARITY. “Are. we free men slaves 'l†pause for a reply. “Well, most of us are married." came the answer from the very last row of seats. or are thundered the orator.

All our aspiration has to be mea- sured by our perspiration. Reform is a matter of reinvigora- tion rather than of uprooting. Some are so anxious to be good that they are good for nothing. Measure the appreciation you beâ€" stow by that which you dcsirc. The religion that: cannot live in busineSs has no business to live. Lives are to be nicusured by their ,outgoings, not by their incomc. ' The first private goodness grows out of devotion to public welfare One of the most popular ways of dodging a duty is to write a book describing it. You may know' how heaven rc- gards money when you see the peo- ple who have it. They who have done least to pre- vent sin always want to do most in punishing it. Some men are sure they are innuâ€" ble because they can think only in diminutives. Many a church that rails at bibuâ€" lous indulgenccs is eager for incn~ tal anesthesia. When the church acts as an um~ pire it usually waits until the cup has been stolen. The people who seem to have re- ligion on the brain usually have no brains in their religion. When your neighbors wish you were in heaven you may be. sure you are not headed that. way. The only hope some have of stayâ€" ing in their heaven is that no wind will arise sufï¬cient to blow any chaï¬ over the walls. ____x, A MiHlSTER’B ORAWTDOE. Zam-Buk Cured a Face Sore which Defled all other Remedies for Two Years. Rev. Charles 1;. Stafford of Bridgcburg, Ont. says :â€" “léhad been much troubled for over two years with a. sore on my left check. I tried all kinds of solves and lotions, but nothing I procured seemed to have the least bit of l effect towards healing the sore. Hearing of Zam-Buk. I decided to give it a trial, and see iiitwould bringaboutacure.assomanyother things had failed. 1 purchased a supplye and commenced with the treatment. Aitc. several applications, to my great joy. Zam-Buk has effected what for two years I tried in vain to bring aboutâ€"a complete cure." Case after case could be quoted in which, as in the above instance. Zaanuk has worked cures when everything else tried had failed. There isareason for this. Zam~Buk is the ideal remedy because of its unique ingredients for all skin injuries and diseases. Away back in the days of the Roman gladiators. secret balms were used for the healing of cuts and injuries sustained in the arena. and in battle. Then came a period during which external balms were neglected, followed by a period in which all the 5.11ch and embrocations had as their base animal fats and oils. Zam-Buk marks a newepoch. It is absolutely devoid of all animal fats, all mineral colouring matters. and is composed ‘ entirely of rich medicinal herbal extracts. I Zamâ€"Buk is a combination of Nature's rich healing herbal juices by the most modern scientiï¬c methods, and the result is a. balm which cures when others fail. Skin diseases. such as eczema. ringworm, salt rheum. and prairie itch, are speedily overcome by it. For piles ii is ï¬ne Yâ€"easing the pain and inflammation. unit hastening .1 cure.
