•-S-' V JUST SEEMED TO SUIT HIS CASE WErLAND MEECHANT EE- STOHED TO HEALTH BY DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS. Doctors and Medicine Failed â€" Dodd's Kidney Fills Succeeded â€" Other Cases They Just Seem to Suit. Welland, Ont., June 12 â€"(Special) â€"J. J. Yokom, a prominent mer- chant of this cilj', is telling his friends o( liis remarkable cure of a terrible Kidney Disease by Dodd's Kidney Tills. Mr. Vokom's state- ment is as follows: "Kor more than a year I had been ailing with Kidney Trouble in all its worst symptoms. I hau a distreiscd feeling in my head, little or no ap- petite, and a feeling of languor. I became greatly reduced in weight. "Doctors and medicines failing to give mo any benefit I became despon- dent, when by good luck I chanced to Iry Dodd's Kidney I'ills, and from the first they seemed to suit ray case. After taking live boxes the old trouble had gradually disappeared, tnd 1 was feeling better than I had In many years." Dodd's Kidney Pills suit the case of every man, woman or child who has any form of Kidney Disease. They always cure and cure perman- ently. COFFEE AS A DISINFECTANT. The use of cofTee as a disinfectant is generally known, but it is doubt- ful if the majority of people are awaro of its true value in this direc- tion. It Is one of the most powerful and efcctive agents Known, as ha.s be<'n shown by repeated experiments. The uierost pinch of coffee is usually BuflRcient to cleanse a sick room, even in aggravated cases. The best way to employ it is to freshly pound the cofTee in a :nortar. if no mill is at hand, and sprinkle it on a red-hot Iron surface. ENGLISH â- WOMEN TALLEST. After taking measurements of the height of women in France, England and America, a doctor announces that the English woman is the tallest and the .\merican conies ne.xt. The average height of the French woman is 5ft. lin. The American woman is nearly two inches taller and the women of Great Britain half an inch taller than the latter. American women, however, weigh slightly more than either of the others, their av- erage weight being about 1171b. MEASURING INGREDIENTS. It is useful to know that sixty drops are equivalent to one tea- spoonful, three tcaspoonfuls ciiual to one tablespoouful. A gill is lour tablcspoonfuls. One cupful of liquid is' equal to one half-pint. Two ciipfuls of butter or sugar weigh one pound, and si.K- teen tablcspoonfuls of liquid arc equal to a cupful. THE IDEAL aiRL. "Is she one of those horrible girls Tvho know enough to set men right?" "No; she's one of those delightful girls who know enough not to." FEED YOUNG GIRLS. ISust Have Right Food While Growing. Great care should bo taken at the critical period when the young girl Is just merging into womanhood that the diet shall contain all that is up- bviilding, and nothing harmful. At that age the structure is being formed and if formed of a healthy, sturdy character, health and happi- ness will follow; on the other hand unhealthy cells may be built in and a sick condition slowly supervene which, if not checked, may ripen into a chronic disease and cause life-long tiulTering. A yomig lad,y says; "ColTcc began to have such an ef- fect on my stomach a few years ago, that I was compelled to quit using it. It brought on headaches, pains in my muscles, and nervo\isness. "I tried to use tea in its stead, but found its alTects even wor.sc than those I suffered from colTee. Then for a long time I drank milk alone at my meals, but it never helped mo physicall.v, and at last ii; palled on me. A friend came to the rescue with the suggestion that- I try Fos- tuni Collce. "I did so, only to fmd at first, that I didn't fancy it. But I had hoard of so many persons who had been benoMted by its use that I per- severed, and when I had it brewed right found it grateful in flavor and soothing and strengthening to my stomach. I can llnd no words to express my feeling of what I owe to Postum Food ColTeel "In every respect It has worked a wonderful improvement â€" the head- headaches, nervousness, the pains in my side and back, all tlvo distressing symptoms yielded to the magic power of I'ostuni. My lirnln seems al.so to share in the betterment of my physical condition; it seerrs keener, mora alert and brighter. I am, in short, in better health now than T ever was before, and I am sure I owe it to the use of your I'ostum Kood Coffi-e" Nome given by I'ost- um Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason. HAY FE-VEH, REMEDIES. Recent German Discoveries Are Proving Successful. German sufTcrers fronv hay fever have tried to help their fellows and themselves by banding togt»thcr in order to promote investigation into the causes of their troubles and to discover cures, if po.wible. Aa the hay fever season is just approaching, some account of the results of their enquiries may be welcome to Eng- lish sulTcrers. ExptTiracnts and experience have fairly established the fact that hay fever is due to the pollen of grass, rye, etc., often intensified by dust and by .sunshine. The dangerous period is from the middle of May to the end of July, varying according to locality; the nctuully dangerous time for any given place lasts some live or six weeks. F.xcept in unusually severe cases, nlleviafion may be obtained by in- haling the fumes of stramonium, with which a little saltpetre has been mixed, and sometimes by sniioking cigarettes made of Indian hemp. The most s<iontilic remedies yet known for external treatment are the anti- toxins prepared from grass pollen. Of these there are two on the mar- ket pollantin and graminin. Follantin is a st^rum .supplied in the form of i owder, to be used n-s snuff or as a liquid to drop Into the e.Ves and nose. Graminin, which at present la only procurable as powder, is the cheaper product, and Is due to the discovery of the a.ssistant of Dr. Dunbar, the inventor of pollantin. These reme- dies are at present little known out- side, but in Germany they are u.sed with real success in 50 per cent, of cases treated, and with less success in others. f PERSONALLY CONDUCTED TOUR To California and Lewis and Clarke Exposition, Port- land, Oregon.

The eyes will be greatly strengthen- ed by putting the face down into a glass or eye-cup of water the fir;;*, thing in the morning and opening them mider water. This is somewhat dilflcult to do at first, but if tho water for two or three days be tepid and gradually be niade i.-older by im- perceptible degrees until it is no shock to put the face into quite cold Water, it will soon become ea.sy, and is very invigorating and refreshing. The eyes should be wiped after this by passing a soft towel very gently from ihe outer angle inwarcl toward the nose.

"I never yet had a pa- tient for whom I prescribed it who forgot when it was time to take a dose." WHAT SALT WILL DO. Salt may be made u.-?cful in many directions besides tubic u.sc. First, a.s a tooth powder, it will keep tho gums huid and the teeth beautifully white. Also, if you have had a tooth extracted and the Ijleeding does not slop, rinsing the mouth with salt ami water will prove a, quick remedy. Mi.xed \^ith hot water it makes a good gargle for a sore throat, and if a little is put with lemon juice, stains on fingers from ink, pe<?ling potatoes, etc., will be easily re- moved When tea cups are discolor- ed rub n little salt on the stain.s be- fore Washing them, and the blemish quickly disappears. SLKIOP AS A HEAUTY AID. No girl who does not sleep well can hope to preserve her good looks. Six hom-s' .sleep is necessary for every- oife, but is not sufficient to meet tho physical needs of all. some reiiuiring eight hours, and olhers even longt;r. When possible, nt least one hour's sleep should be obtained bcfoie imid- night, as this is worth all the hours that succeed it. Cultivate a habit of sleeping on tho sido. .Sleeping on the back cramps the digestive or- gans nnd, besides being injurious, i;«uses bad dreams. Avoid heavy reading late at night.

There is plenty of buried treasure within the confines of tho Uritish Em- pire besides thnt which u noble lord has failed to locate. For nearly fifty years people have been searching for the ill-gotten hoard of Coptain Mel- ville, u famous Australian bush- ranger, who robbed hundreds of gold- dij,'gerH bctwtjen Molbotirne and Ual- larat. and is supposed to have ac- cumulated a pile of $250, 000, which ho so carefully concealed that no- body ba.s so far been able to (ind it. lie died in Melbourne jail. ."Vt tho time of his arrest a curious map was fouiul upon him, but even with its aid the most skilful detectives have failed to localize tho spot. FASCINATED UV A FURNACE. At an intiuest on an iron-moulder named Lawtoii, who commlllod sui- cide by jumping into a blast furnace at llirniingham, F.ngland, workmen described how, on the day of his death, the man repeatedly called them to look into the furnace, going hack to it time after time as if by a kind of fatal fascination, although ho hud no business there. When he jumped in he was heard to cry, "Oh, oh, two or three times, but no one could ai>proach the charging-holo for some time on account of the great heat. Only some bones and bitf of metal were recovered.
