Not One Negro In The State Was Invited to Participate in Drinking a Common Glass of Political Beer. Hon. Wm. Warner, the senator-elect, was given a banquet attended by 650 of the leading white republicans in the state. All speeches made were to the effect that the republican party had taken control of the affairs in the state, and all admitted that it was the united effort of the entire strength of the republican party. Now let us take a retrospective view of our victory in Missouri. Last fall the state went republican. Not less than 65,000 Negro votes were cast for the nominees. The Negro votes were just as equal in number and weight as that of any other 65,000 votes, but when the pie counter was set and ready, not one Negro was invited to participate in the feast except as janitors. This is past. Now to the spring election. When the republican party won to a certain extent, no Negro was found to be worthy to fill any office except that of janitor. Now comes on the eve of sending the newly-elected United States senator to Washington, and a banquet was given by the white republicans of the state, and not one Negro in the state was invited to participate in drinking a common glass of political beer nor eat a sandwich, and yet we are asked to be good and true republicans. If the leading republicans intend to set up a lily white republican party, then the Palladium will call upon the 200,000 Negroes in the state and ask them to organize and be ready to resent such insults. Use Pickett's Laxative Viburnum for Female Trouble. COME UP AND AT Booker T. V 2353 Mar We Are Always Open DAY AND At Rest With Her Maker. After the labors of 82 years, Mrs. Rachel Hardy is at rest with her Maker in Heaven. After the warfare of 82 years of pleasure, joy and sorrow, she passed into the great beyond, with the words of Paul, I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith, I am now ready to receive my reward. Last Saturday she fell asleep in the arm of slumber, of what we call death. The funeral service took place at St. Paul church last Wednesday. Rev. W. D. Cook preached one of the most touching logical and spiritual sermons that we have ever heard. He was assisted by Rev. Dr. Jones, Baptist; Rev. S. P. Anderson, Baptist; Rev. W. B. Stewart, Methodist; Rev. Henry Morman, Methodist, and others. All spoke in evidence of her long Christian life and good work. She leaves a sister, one daughter, Mrs. Sandy Mix, of 1108 Morgan street, and a grand son. The pallbearers were: C. H. Wheeler, C. H. Tandy, G. D. Green, John Payne, Robert Boatwright and Alexander Cassaway. She was buried in St. Peter's cemetery, in the family lot. We deeply sympathize with the daughter and all relatives in this sad moment of the loss of a mother, the dearest friend we have on earth. The First Colored Spiritual Society in the World.

He had his mustache shaved off, and he looks a fright. We heard some one call him father, do right. All of the church clubs met in a joint meeting last Sunday to arrange for a grand rally. This rally is known as the Japanese and Russian contest rally. The Calven and the Ruth clubs represent Japan; the Carnation and Pleasant Workers' clubs represent Russia. The rally will be held Thursday evening, November 16. The public is cordially invited to come down and help these clubs in this grand effort. We learn that the missionary massmeeting held by Miss C. B. Delaney last Wednesday evening was a very interesting meeting. Miss Delaney has just returned from Africa, where she spent three years teaching the natives. She has with her a boy who ran off from his tribe and walked 200 miles to get to her so he could come to America. Miss Delaney spoke of the customs, habits and needs of the natives. As the meeting was for ladies only, and we didn't have on the wedding garments, we couldn't get in, but it has been said that every woman in St. Louis ought to hear this talk on Africa that Miss Delaney is giving free of charge. ROVER. Antioch Church Notes. Rev. Harden Smith, a very able man and one of the leading Baptist ministers of the state, preached a splendid sermon Sunday, the 5th, at 11 a. m., at Antioch church.

Anderson preached, and in part made a report of the National convention that met in Chicago, to which he was a delegate.

RL-I-CURE A CURE FOR CURLS CURL-I-CURE S When you meet a person your first impression is governed largely by his or her appearance. The same applies to you. Nothing adds to or detracts from a lady's or gentleman's appearance so much as the hair. Nothing lingers in the hair, not the good breeding, their taste, so much as the hair. brush the hair with a stiff hair brush, the sooner you will obtain the desired results that will CURL-I-CURE is harmless and will make the hair grow, dissolves it easily and makes appearance. Wash the hair with soap and water and let thoroughly dry. Do this only before the first application. Then it is made or two days, rubbing it into the hair and mass. Then brush the hair for five or ten minutes with the glove and brush the hair for another ten minutes. After the hair is straightened twice a week in oils and straight hair is absolutely assured.

A Pleasant Visit. to yourself, as well as to others who are interested in you, to make yourself as attractive as possible. Attractiveness will contribute much to your Cursed Be the Mother,Father or Guardian Who Will Permit These Things. We are informed that a number of men and women, who make it a practice of passing for white in a number of places, powder up their faces, and in these one-horse balls and gatherings of the scourings of St. Louis white society, poke their heads in and pass for white. They then return to their homes with white men, leaving them before they reach home, and say to him their mother would not like for a man to come home with them. Still common sense ought to teach a girl this lesson. A girl that is allowed to go to these balls and places of amusement without their mothers, fathers or guardians, they don't care for their child, or the girl is allowed to do as she pleases. Then there are a number of girls that say they are going out of the coal business. There are also six or eight men who could not, if they wanted, get away from their race. Still these Negroes will not go with any women or girls unless they are yellow. The sooner that hell gets this class of Negroes, both men and women, the better the race will be. Death Came at Last. Mrs. Rachel Hardy, the mother of Mrs. Lucretia Mix, died last Saturday, having been confined to her bed for only a few days. She had been a member of St. Paul's chapel for nearly 40 years, and she was a true Christian woman and a kind and loving mother. VOICE OF THE NEGRO.

A MIXED RESULT IN NEW YORK Republicans Defeated in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Reform Element Sweeping Philadelphia-Results Elsewhere. NEW YORK. Complete But Unofficial Returns Give McCullan 3-485 Plurality. New York, Nov. 9.—The city of New York complete but unofficial returns give McClellan 3,485 plurality over Hearst. The total vote was; McClelan, 228,651; Hearst, 225,166; Ivins, 13,-049. Jerome, for district attorney, with two precincts missing, is 11,450 votes ahead of Tammany candidate Osborne. Tammany gets the rest of the ticket, but loses the board of aldermen. PENNSYLVANIA. Reform Wins in Philadelphia-In the State the Fusion Ticket Wins. Philadelphia, Nov. 9.—Complete returns from every ward in the city give the city party 148,679 and the republican candidates 106,346, a plurality for the city party of 43,333. William H Berry, the fusion candidate for state treasurer, has carried the state with a plurality estimated at 100,-000, defeating J. Lee Plummer, republican. Philadelphia gives Berry about 36,037 plurality. He has carried Allegheny county, where recent bank exposures aided in sweeping aside the big normal republican majority. The vote in Philadelphia was the heaviest ever cast. Thousands, many of them representative business men, voted for the first time in their lives. OHIO. Democrats Elect Their State Ticket and Carry the Legislature. Columbus, C., Nov. 9.—There is no longer any doubt that Pattison and the entire democratic state ticket have defeated Herrick and the republican ticket. The estimated democratic plurality is upwards of 40,000 for Pattison, with safe majorities for the rest of the state ticket. There will be a democratic plurality in both houses of the legislature. The democrats claim a majority of 5 in the senate and of 27 in the house. Judge Dempsey, the democratic candidate for mayor of Cincinnati, is elected by about 15,000. MASSACHUSETTS. Curtis Guild, Jr., Elected Governor-His Running Mate Barely Escapes. Boston, Nov. 9.—Lieut.-Gov. Curtis Guild, Jr., republican, was elected governor by about 32,000 plurality, receiving nearly the normal republican off-year vote His running mate, Eben S. Draper, was elected by about 2,000. The greatest surprise was the election of John B. Moran, independent, for district attorney of Suffolk county, which includes Boston, Revere, Winthrop and Chelsea, against Michael J. Sughrue, a faithful and efficient prosecutor. OTHER STATES AND CITIES In Maryland the republicans were victorious. Senator Gorman's proposed constitutional amendment to disfranchise the negro was defeated by nearly 30,000. In Indiana both sides made a good showing. The republicans were victorious in 26 cities and the democrats in 20. The Indianapolis republicans, headed by Bookwalter, were winners. In Chicago the republicans were winners, electing six judges and all the sewerage trustees. In Rhode Island the republicans made a clean sweep, electing their candidate for governor by a large majority. In Virginia the democrats won a complete victory, their choice for governor being elected by an overwhelming majority. In San Francisco the union labor candidate, Eugene Schmitz, defeated the joint candidate of the democrats and republicans. The entire union labor ticket is elected. In Salt Lake City the American party, which was opposed to the Mormon element, swamped the followers of Brigham Young. In Nebraska the republicans captured all of the minor officers on which the vote was taken. In New Jersey the republicans added strength to their already great power in that state. Indian territory voted against the movement for separate statehood. Lady Florence Dixie Dead. London, Nov. 9.—Lady Florence Dixie, the well-known writer, explorer and champion of woman's rights, who acted as war correspondent for a London paper during the Boer war, died at her home, Glen Stuart, Annan, Dumfrieshire, Scotland.

MUTINY AT RIO DE JANEIRO MUTINY AT RIO DE JANEIRO One Officer Killed and Another Wounded in Santa Cruz Fortress. The Mutineers Surrender After the Guns of Fort Sao Jono Are Turned On Them. Washington, Nov. 10.—Ambassador Nabuco, of Brazil, has received dispatches from the Brazilian foreign office regarding the mutiny in the Santa Cruz fortress at Rio, announcing that the affair resulted in the killing of Maj. Digno Freire and the wounding of a second lieutenant. The ambassador's advices say that the mutiny was one of non-commissioned men against their superior officers, and that after a short bombardment from the opposite fort of Sao Joao in the harbor, and an attack by a brigade of infantry from inland, the mutineers surrendered. Maj. A. V. DePederneiras, the military attache of the embassy here, was several years ago commander of the port at Santa Cruz, and express the opinion that the mutiny probably grew out of the punishment for some breach of discipline. Maj. DePederneiras says that the Santa Cruz fortress is an artillery post, manned by a regiment from that branch of the service, and is heavily fortified by modern guns, and is one of five forts at the entrance to the harbor of Rio. GETS RESTRAINING ORDER Judge Adams, in the Federal Court at St. Louis, Grants New York Life Temporary Restraining Order. St. Louis. Nov. 10.—Judge Adams of the United States circuit, court has issued a restraining order directing State Superintendent of Insurance Vandiver to appear before the federal court in Jefferson City November 20, to show cause why he should not be prevented from enforcing his order excluding the New York Life Insurance Co. from writing further insurance in Missouri, and ordering that, pending the hearing November 20, no attempt, in any manner, be made to enforce the order. Paying No Attention to Vandiver, St. Louis, Nov. 10.-At the St. Louis offices of the New York Life Insurance Co. it was said that the company was paying no attention to the order of suspension of its Missouri charter. The private secretary of Hamilton Cooke, inspector of agency, who said that she was empowered to speak for Mr. Cooke, said: "We are doing business at the old stand. We are soliciting insurance just as energetically as we ever did, and we are going to continue to do so." There are 30,000 policy holders in There are 30,000 policy holders in the New York Life in Missouri who carry $60,000,000 insurance. FOURTEEN PHANTOM SHIPS Novel Effect of Electric Lighting on the British and American Warships at New York. New York, Nov. 10.—As night fell on the waters of North river, the lines of the British and American squadrons, lying at anchor, faded from sight, but about seven o'clock the watchers on the river banks saw six British cruisers and the eight battleships of the American first squadron suddenly flash into view, their outlines marked by strings of electric lights. Thus illuminated they looked like phantom ships in fairy land. A unique feature of the illumination of the American warships was the use of the powerful searchlights which on each ship were trained on the flags that flew from foremast and mainmast, bathing the American and British flags in a silvery light. A MYSTERIOUS TRAGEDY Newly Wedded Couple Found Dead From Bullet Wounds in Their Bridal Chamber. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 10.—A special to the Virginian Pilot says Helen Hope, who, Wednesday night, was married to Randolph C. Johnson, at Perguimans, N. C., was found dead in her bridal chamber with a pistol in her hand and a bullet wound through her head. Johnson was lying across the bed dead, with three bullets in his head and body. The couple had been sweethearts from childhood, and the cause of the tragedy is inexplicable. FEARS WERE GROUNDLESS Telegram Received From Mrs. Hubbard Reporting Successful Expedition In Labrador.

Who can the republican party of Missouri afford to lose best—Tom Akins, who hates Negroes, or 50,000 Negro votes? "We freed the Negro," shout the office holding white republicans. "Yes, freed him to vote the republican ticket and eat political husks. "We have come to stay."—Tom Akins at Warner Banquet. Who is We? Is "We" Tom Akins?" It is such men as Tom Akins that caused Ohio to go democratic. Tom Akins, republican national committeeman from Missouri, signed a petition for a Colored doctor to be pension examiner, and then withdrew it, not because the doctor was incompetent, or was not a republican, but because he was a Negro.

Address When Negro girls and men are so white in color that they try to pass for white, they should be ostracized by our Negro men and women. The Negro girl, who is so white that she can pass for white in public, where the scums of the white race gather, should be set down on by the Negro men. The Negro mother who does, knowingly let her daughter go to public halls, where they can pass for white ought to get in H—— the sooner, the better. When black Negroes, that can not get away from their race on account of their blackness, and then will only be seen in company of a yellow girl, it makes no difference who they are, nor how low, they are subjects fit for the lunatic asylum.

We trust that the same in placed in the hands of others who will carefully instruct their former readers in a higher sphere; for instance, if a man should lecture on geology, he should know something about geology. The same if a man should teach Christianity, he should be a Christian. So it is with other things. If a man would lecture on morals, he should be a moral man. Lincoln Institute Notes The "annual banquet to the faculty," given by Dr. B. F. Allen at the mansion, on Thursday night, November 2, was in every sense of the term a successful and brilliant affair; and as in always the case, stamps the doctor as a prince of entertainers. Many forms of amusement were provided, and the musical programme was exceptionally fine. The menu was elaborate and served in perfect taste. The favors for the ladies were beautiful cut flowers. At a scenely hour the guests, heartily thanking President Allen for the enjoyment of a most delightful evening, wended their way homeward. An up-to-date Hallowe'en party, arranged from models in the Ladies' Home Journal, to which all of the students were invited, was given by the young ladies of the Olive Branch, under the supervision of the president and faculty. The dining room was skillfully decorated in red and black, and with jack-o-lanterns, artistic booths, etc. The young people enjoyed themselves so fully in innocent fun that, apparently, no desire was felt for the usual college pranks, so destructive of property and giving rise to general discomfort. The Lincoln Institute Tigers defeated the Western University football team in Jefferson City on Friday, November 3, with a score of 15 to 5. President Vernon and Professors Jackson and Spurlock accompanied the boys. All were the guests of the institution during their stay, and a social was given in the evening in honor of the visitors. The Tigers are to play the Kansas University team in Kansas City on the 18th, and the Chicago Maroons in St. Louis on Thanksgiving Day. Dr. Allen is giving a series of very interesting Sunday afternoon addresses that are attracting large audiences of students and citizens. The subjects thus far treated have been largely mythological and historical in character; and from these Greek myths and historical personages he has drawn many beautiful and valuable lessons for the benefit of his hearers. "Perseus and Medusa," "Narcissus and Echo," "Modern Chivalry," Solomon's Choice," are subjects that have been very highly appreciated by young and old. and Removes All Dandruff. mental, but an old, re-ion of proven merit.

We wish to say we don't want any of our reporters to say anything about him, but that big detective knows full well that it is best for him to keep his mouth off the Palladium, as he looks just like any other man to us. Negro votes cast for members of the legislature that elected Warner United States senator were welcomed, but there was no Negro at the Warner banquet in Kansas City. "It is God bless you, brother," at election time, but "God — you," at political functions. The Baptist Convention in Chicago Last Week. We were right when we said to the Broad Ax in Chicago: "Keep a wateen on the Nigger from St. Louis, who has a plurality of wives, and who caused a man to go to the other world." Mr. Credit, of Philadelphia, was not at the convention, and the man from St. Louis was hid, as he knew the Broad Ax was onto him. Now he comes back to St. Louis and sets up a grafting day, November 18. All men who want to see him will bring 35 cents. When men have a plurality of wives and then presents a copy of a divorce, he ought to name which one of the wives he was released from. SNOKKS TO THE READERS OF THIS PAPER We invite the readers of this paper, who have seen our advertisement, and perhaps doubted the truth of the same, to read the following testimonial, dated October 18, 1905, which is only one of hundreds of like nature we receive: Lincoln Chemical Works, Aurora, Ill. Gentlemen—I used your CURL-I-CURE for two weeks, and I must say it is the best hair preparation I ever used. It is the only preparation that has served my hair so well. CURL-I-CURE does what it is said to do, and I do not hesitate in recommending it. From the first application I noticed a change for better in my hair. My two sisters, who have also used CURL-I-CURE for a short while, join me in recommending it to all. We shall never again be without it. With many felicitations, I am, respectfully, LIZZIE M. JACKSON. PRICE, 50 CENTS, FREE OF ALL CHARGES. We solicit your orders and inquiries. See our ad, in this paper. Refuse all substitutes.

We learned very recently in different parts of the city of two Negro school teachers objecting to Colored persons purchasing property in their neighborhoods. An act that no other race of people in the country has ever been guilty of. It is a burning shame that our boys and girls must of "necessity" receive instructions from such miserable human beings. What is more these people pose as race leaders. This damnable practice must be stopped. and Positive Cure A WEEKLY VISITOR Calling on 170,000 Colored People in the City of St. Louis, and the State of Missouri.....

Let some of our subscribers read and wonder. We hope this will get you to see clear: 1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered as wishing to continue subscriptions. 2. If subscribers order the discontinuance of their periodicals, the publisher may continue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals from post office to which they are directed, they are responsible until they have settled their bills and ordered them discontinued. 4. If the subscriber moves to another place without informing the publisher, and the papers are sent to the former directions, they are held responsible. 5. The courts have decided that the refusing to take periodicals from post office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud. 6. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice to the publishers, at the end of their time, if they do not wish to continue it, otherwise the publisher is authorized to send it, the subscriber will be responsible until an express notice with payment of arrearage is sent to the publisher. 7. The latest postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can arrest anyone for fraud who takes a paper and refuses to pay for it. Under this law the man who allows his subscription to run along for some time, unpaid, and then orders the postmaster to mark it "refused," and has a card sent notifying the publishers, lays himself liable to arrest and fine, the same as for theft, etc. A New Dress-Making Establishment.

About ten minutes after the rising of the sun on the 28th ult. will occur the new moon, and, consequently, the con- Junction will take place near the east- ern horizon and’ in the sign’ Scorpio. Just below the aseendant will be found the swift-winged Mercury in benign aspect to the fiery Mars in the third di- vision, These positions are favorable for trade, and traffic and commerce will imerease. On the railway there will be accidents and collisions of a fatal and disquieting nature. Towards the close of the month strikes will be threatened, many robberies from the post office, and the stock and share market will suffer, Health will reign supreme, and sickness and death during the month will be much below the average. When the full moon occurs om the 12th the beautiful planet Venus will grace the ascendant with her bright and silvery rays, and will bring to many minds the thought of the “Star in the Bast” which the wise men saw and followed. Placed as she is, denotes peace, jovial- ity and merry-making in the land, and a contented and happy state of the people, for she is powerful in her own sign Libra and elevated above the mal- efies, ‘The transits of the planets are sim- ilar to last month, except that Mars leaves Capricorn and enters Aquarius, the ruling sign of Russia. This will give a great impetus to the revolution- ary movement, and we shall hear of wholesale arrests and deportations to the frigid clime of Siberia, that land wherein so many of the best and fore- most of Russia’s sons sleep their last but happy sleep, after a life of torture and suffering. F. C. B., J. M. T. AND F. L. T. The right thing done at last. We used to hear the word saying stop paying rent and own your own home. But now in addition to that, I will say stop paying such big doctor bills, and join the White Cross Medical Service. Free physician at a cost of one dollar per year. Entitles any mem- ber and family to a free doctor and nurse at your home or at the office of the service free for one year from date. Small charges for medical and surgical dressing only.

Missouri's "meerschau" products netted the counties which made surplus shipments in 1904 the sum of $268,502, according to the statistics compiled by the labor bureau, which is large considering that the material used in the making was formerly burned as fuel to get it out of the way or employed in filling swamps and low places, being not even considered good enough to feed to stock. Corncob pipes are known the world over as "Missouri meerschau pipes." and have brought faae to the state and shekels to the farmers who sell the cobs, the lumbermen who cut and sell the stems, and to the manufacturers who put the cobs and stems together. A Missouri Quarantine Order. Howell county has established a quarantine against Shannon county, where smallpox of a malignant form is said to exist.

Lee Christman, judge of the county court of Jackson county, charged with the improper letting of a county road contract, was acquitted by a jury in the criminal court at Kansas City. The Groom 77 and His Bride 76. James M. Farrow and Mrs. Sarah J. Munson both of Independence. Mo. were married at the home of Mr. Farrow in Fuller avenue.

Her death was caused by taking two ounces of lanthanum with suicidal intent. Novel Case Decided. NOVEL CASE DEFINED. The state supreme court refused to grant the application for a writ of habeas corpus for the release of Lee DeFord, the Altamont bank cashier from the penitentiary, where he is serving an eight-year term for receiving money when the bank was in a failing condition. He was sentenced to serve two years on each of four counts, and he sought to be released, having served 18 months, under the provision of the three-fourths rule, his prison conduct being good. This would have given him liberty for six months when he would have been returned to the prison to serve another 18 months, and so on, until all four sentences had been carried out. As the second sentence, however, under the statutes, begins immediately upon the expiration of the first, he has already entered upon its service, and must remain in the prison six years, getting the time off allowed for good behavior all in one. There are efforts now being made to have the governor either pardon him or reduce his sentence by commutation. A Physician Burned to Death. The drug store of Dr. Ira Smith of Austin, Cass county, was destroyed by fire recently, and Dr. Smith was burned to death.

The coroner's jury returned a verdict that he came to his death through accident. The store of H. C. Crum also burned. Dr. Smith was widely known throughout Cass and Bates counties, where he practiced medicine for 27 years. An Eight Weeks' Farm Course.

Vigorous Health Is the Great Source of the Power to Inspire and Encourage -All Women Should Seek It. One of the most noted, successful and richest men of this century, in a recent article, has said, "Whatever I am and whatever success I have attained in this world I owe all to my wife. From the day I first knew her she has been an inspiration, and the greatest helpmate of my life." Mrs. Bessie Ainsley Mrs. Bessie Minsley To be such a successful wife, to retain the love and admiration of her husband, to inspire him to make the most of himself, should be a woman's constant study. If a woman finds that her energies are flagging, that she gets easily tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, she has backache, headaches, bearing-down pains, nervousness, whites, irregularities or the blues, she should start at once to build up her system by a tonic with specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Following we publish by request a letter from a young wife: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: "Ever since my child was born I have suffered, as I hope few women ever have, with inflammation, female weakness, bearing-down pains, backache and wretched headaches. I am a woman so I could not enjoy my meals, and half my time." A "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me a well woman, and I feel so grateful that I am glad to write and tell you of my marvelous recoveries. It brought me health, strength, vitality," Mrs. Ainsley, 911 South 10th Street, Tacoma, Wash. What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will do for every sick and ailing woman. If you have symptoms you don't understand write. to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free and always helpful. Weighed by His Soap. In the little town of Peru, ten miles from Pittsfield, the farmers in the winter bring their butter and eggs to Frank Creamer's and exchange them for tea, sugar or anything else they need. One day Mrs. Ackert brought some butter in pound lumps to exchange, and after water was said, "Mrs. Ackert, this butter does not weigh a pound." that does a lot better. "I can't help that," she said, "I weighed it by a pound of soap I got here a few days ago."—Boston Herald. Merely a Fat Man. "I thought you said he was a big corporation lawyer." Not at all." "I said you told me he spent most of his time attending to a big corporation." "Yes, his own corporation. He's forever eating and drinking." -Brooklyn Eagle. Ask Your Neighbors. Gelatt, Pa., Nov. 6th (Special)—Mrs. H. W. Sterns, a well respected resident of Gelatt, tells in convincing words, what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done for her. She says:— "I was a great sufferer from Rheumatism, caused through my Kidneys being out of order. I was subject to it for years. It would take me without warning, and while the attack lasted I was so lame I could not get around. So I had to send for Dodd's Kidney Pills. I took them for three days, but didn't feel much benefit, but on the fourth day I noticed a great change, the lameness in my back was gone, and the pains in my back were worse. I kept in Dodd's Kidney Pills and now I am glad to say I have no lameness nor pains of any kind. I feel as if I didn't know what Rheumatism was. I shall never be without Dodd's Kidney Pills in the house, and I bless the day I first heard of them." His Selfishness "If you don't stop nagging me, Emily, I shall shoot myself this very minute." "Yes, that's just like you, when you know how nervous I am when I hear a shot."—Meggendorfer Bluetter. When ea man is generous to a fault, it is generally his own fault. $3.50 & $3.00 SHOES FOR MEN W. L. Douglas $4.00 Clit Edge Line cannot be equalled at any price. W.L.
