Marie East, Bonaventure 00., Quebec, February 26 (Special).â€" Mr. Peter Bernard, a prosperous young'farmer living near here, is spreading the good news that he has found a. complete cure for his kidâ€" ney troubles. “I suffered for six years from 'cramps in the muscles and kidney disease, ’ Mr. Bernard says, “but Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured me comâ€" pletely. Yes, I am feeling so well that I want other sufferers to know just how easy it is to be cured.” It is a. good old saying that it is 'easy to do anything if you just know how. And Mr. Bernard and hundreds of others are telling you just how to cure kidney disease. Dodd’s Kidney Pills always cure it. And as kidney disease is the direct cause of rheumatism, lumba- Eb: firight’s disease, heart <disease, pain in the back and urinary trou- bles Déd'd’s Kidney Pills curgthem by removing the cause.

Although most women are well aware of the great privilege which they may enjoy during leap year, it is not to be presumed that they are all equally conversant with the fact that their pr-ematrimonial right was originally secured to them by a staâ€" tute law of England, enacted in 1606 under James I. (1603-1625). which readeth thus: “Albeit it is now become. a part of the common laws, in regarde to the social relay- tions of life, that so often as everie besextile year doeth returne, the ladyes have. the sole privilege, dur- ing the time oontinueth, of making ‘love unto the men,'which they may doe, either by words or looks, as unto them seemeth proper; more- over, no man will be entitled to the benefit of clergy who dothe re- fuse to accept the offers of a, ladye, 317: {who doth-c in any wise treat. her proposals with slight and contume- 1%” _ n .A-.. 1 A Scotch statute of 1228, under Alexander II. (1214-1249), however, preceded the above, and will appear to be even more stringent: ‘ “It is statet; and ordaint that- durâ€" ing the year of his maist blissit muâ€" je‘stie, ilk fourth year known as leap year, ilk maiden lady of both high and low estait, shell hae liberty to bespeak ye man [she likes, albit, if he refuses to take her to be his wife he. shall be mul’cted in the sum of one poundis (£1) or less, as hils es- taib may be, except and anis if he can make it appear that he is beâ€" trothed to ane woman, that he shall then be free.” Heckâ€"Does your wife get angry if she is interrupted wlfle talking?” Peckâ€"How should I know?
