Are Popular West ‘ of the Great Lakes Mrs. W. J. Vale Talks of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Pandora, Alta... Feb. 25thâ€"(Specia1) -“We are never without a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills in the house." That's what Mrs. W. J. Vale. a. well- known and highly respected resident She Also Tells How Her'Dyspepsia Was Cured By Using Dodd's Dys- pepsla Tablets.‘ That's what Mrs. W. J. Vale. a. well- known and highly respected resident of this place has to say of the great Canadian kidney remedy. “My hus- band suffers from lumbago, and they always help him,” is the reason that she gives. It is evidence like this that proves that the Dodd's remedies have gained a permanent place in the family medi- cine chests of the West. Dodd's Kid- ney Pills are particularly papillar- The success with which they have been used to treat all kinds of kidney ills from backache to rheumatism and Bright’s disease have earned for them the gratitude of thousands of people on this side of the Great Lakes. “I must also tell you," Mrs. Vale continued, “what Dodd‘s DyspeDSia Tablets did for me. They cured me of a very bad attack of dyspepsia. I have also derived great benefit from the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills.” Pp'ilippine Natives Were Frightened By Clever Artifice. “While in the United States governâ€" ment employ in the Philippines," says a writer in the Electrical Experiment- er, “I was stationed on the Island of Pasilan, which is a small island in the Sulu Archipelago. “We frequently had the natives enâ€" tertain us with their native dances, and in turn would fill them with wonâ€" der and awe with a phonograph which we had in our outfit. We found 'it necessary to put up a telephone line between two buildings that were a little distance apart, using two mag- neto sets. “One day I found a rather large cocoanut under a tree near the bamboo but we were living in, and conceived the idea of making a cocoanut talk. So I emptied its contents and hung it on the outside of the house opposite the phone, so arranged that we could put the receiver through the grass wall and drog it' into thencocoanut. see the wonderful c coanut that we could make talk, a d with the aid of an interpreter at the other phone who understood their language we had a lot of fun. Some of the natives were so frightened they left the village. Next day a delegation returned and directed us to destroy the talking cocoanut, under penalty of immediate attack. They did not like to have so uncanny a thing around. There was much rejoicing when we consigned it to the flames.” “We invited some; the natives to Bacon contains about 7 per cent. bone,- dressed beef 20, mutton 20 and veal 25.

That most animals have the ability to calculate and that many have quite a clear idea of number is the conten- tion of M. H. Coupin in La Revue, wha cites many instances to prove his Lstatement. A bird notices whether an egg has been taken from its nest of four or five, and a bee or a wasp al- ways makes cells with six sides. A squirrel, jumping from branch to branch, calculates his spring accord- ing to the distance to he travelled; and a dog, playfully jumping in front of his master's carriage, appreciates its speed with surprising accuracy so as not to be run over. The Literary i Digest adds other more remarkable ex- ;amples of animal calculation. to remove tan, freckles, sallowness.

In Montaigne’s Essays we read that the oxen einployed in the royal gardens of Susa for turning the wheels to which the water pailswere attached, refused to make more than the hundred rounds that constituted their daily dask. Romanes assures us that he taught a chimpanzee of the London Zoological Gardens to have exact notions con- cerning the numbers one to five. He ordered him to take up one, two, three, four or five straws, and did not accept them unless the number was correct. Within a short time the ape understood, and rarely made a mis- take.

Charles and his mother were repatriated from the North of France not long ago, and find themselves with little or nothing to live on. During their captivity the mother was struck by a shell, and lost ‘ a leg. The father is an ambulance- drive: for a hospital in Calais, and this is what he says: “Dear and Good Ladieszâ€"I thank you so much for the parcel that has just come.
