Bouchard of this village, is satisfied she has at last found perâ€" manent relief from the heart trouâ€" ble and backache that have trouâ€" bled her for so long. “Yes,” Dame Bouchard says, in an interview, “I am happy to tell you Dodd’s Kidney Pills have made me well. They completely cured my little girl, twelve years old, of kidney dis-ease, so I made up my mind to try them for my backache and heart trouble. I have taken twelve boxes and feel sure that they will completely cure me.” Dodd’s Kidney Pills are doing a great_work in this neighborhood. They have yet to find a case of kidney disease they cannot cure. Whether the disease takes the form of Backache, Lumbago, Rheumaâ€" tism, Urinary Trouble or Bright’s Disease, it is all the same to Dodd’s Kidney Pills. They always cure it. lTimâ€"~“Shu1ve, the doctor says I’ve got tobaccy heart.” Sandyâ€" “Ye’re safe then, Tim.

The finest are employed by Chinese ofiicials and other wealthy men to draw their “Peking carts.” These Peking carts have been un- til recently the only vehicle used by the Chinese to correspond with pleasure carriages in this country. Now the more progressive of the wealthy Chinese are beginning to use modern‘carriages. The latter, however, can only be used in city streets.
