(Special).â€" {lll the countryside here is ringâ€" mg with the wonderful cure of Mrs. Samuel Thompson, who lay at the point of death for weeks, swollen with Dropsy so that the doctor five different times decided to tap her, but desisted because, as her husâ€" band said, “It might be better to let her die in peace.” After the doctor had given her up Dood’s Kidney Pills cured her. . Mrs. Thompson’s terrible trouble started with a pain in the back. She grew worse, and the doctor treated her for jaundice for eight weeks. Then her feet and legs be- gan to swell, and it was realized that Dropsy was the trouble. For seven months she suffered. The doc-tor said there was no hope; she must die. _As a last resort Dodd’s Kidney Pills were tried. The improvement was slow but gradually her strength came back. To-day Mrs. Thomp- son is a well woman. She says, and the countryside knows, she owes her life to Dodd’s Kidney Pills. If the disease is of the Kidneys, ' or from the Kidneys, Dodd’s kid» ney Pills will cure it. __.__...___>Z«._ IT HAD ITS LIMITATIONS. “Madam,” said the young man who had called at the door, “I have the pleasure of introducing to you our new automatic house-cleaning machineâ€"a simple little thing wn1ch does the whole work of house-cleanâ€" ing, leaving you merely the general supervision.” “Does it do all, eh?” demanded the woman of the house. “Will it was-h the outside of the upstairs windows ’3” “Why, no, madam, but»â€"â€"” “Will it take down, wash, stretch to dry, iron, and hang up the par- lor curtains ’5” “Well, of course, this machineâ€"” “Will it paint. the kitchen, and make my daughter help with the dishes ?’ ’ “Oh, madam, this machineâ€"â€" “Will it wash the winter bed- ding and put it away, lay down the furs with moth balls, sew on but- tons, set three meals a day, and pacify the household 2” _‘ “No, madam. You have misunâ€" derstood the limitations of my ma- chine.” “Limitations! It will be a long time before any man will get- iip a machine to do all a woman has to H ' do in her house.” The agent silently faded away. >I< The transition from winter’s cold to summer’s heat frequently puts a strain upon the system that pro- duces internal complications, alâ€" ways painful and often serious.

He was neat in appearance. He had dignity of bearing. Heuvas never late in keeping his appomtments. He had no conceit-ed and arro- gant manner. He believed in his proposition. He never disgust-ed his prospect with gross flattery. He knew all the fine points of his own goods. He never offended the prospect by undue familiarity. He never attacked his competi- tor’s goods. He never ridiculed his prospect’s ideas and methods. He made a careful preliminary study of his prospect’s case. He relied on solid argument based on facts, and not on bluff. He never got lost in a forest of details, and could stick to essen- tials. He had not been out with “the boys” the night befcre, showing the effects. He never talked too much. He gave his prospect a chance to ex- plain his needs and position. He could ans‘.wer questions and objections intelligently, concisely and convincingly. He did not try to close his pros- pect before he had worked him up to a point of conviction. He never lost. his nerve because the prospect presented such an unâ€" yielding front, and did not forget that battles are won by hard rallies at the finish. He knew his business when he made the approach; talked cleanâ€" cut- business after he got in, made it his business to fight all the way through, and do business before he left. w“! A MINISTERS GRATITODE. Zam-Buk Cured a Face Sore which Defied all other Remedies for Two Years. Rev. Charles E. Stafford, of Bridgeburg, Ont. says 2â€"- ' “Ithail been much troubled for over two years with a sore on my left check. I filed all kinds of salves and lotions, but nothing I procured seemed to have the least bit of effect towards healing the sore. Hearing of Zam-Buk, I decided to give it a trial, and see ifit would bringaboutacure, as so many other things had failed. I purchased a supply, and commenced with the treatment. After several applications. to my great joy. Zam-Buk has effected what for two years I tried in vain to bring aboutâ€"a. complete cure.” Case after case could be quoted in which, as in the above instance, Zam-Buk has worked cures when everything else tried had failed. Thereisareasonforthis. Zam-Buk is the ideal remedy because of its unique ingredients for all skin injuries and diseases. Away back in the days of the Roman gladiators, secret balms were used for the healing of cuts and injuries sustained in the arena and in battle. Then came a'period during which external balms were neglected, followed by a period in which all the Salves and embrocations had as their base animal fats and oils. Zam-Buk marks a new epoch. It is absolutely devoid of all animal fats, all mineral colouring matters, and is composed entirely of rich medicinal herbal extracts. Zamâ€"Buk is a combination of Nature's rich healing herbal juices by the most modern scientific methods, and the result is abalm which cures when others fail. Skin diseases, such as eczema. ringworm, salt rheum, and prairie itch, are speedily overcome by it. For piles it is fine !â€"easing the pain and inflammation, and hastening a. cure. It also cures burns, scalds, cuts, ulcers, children’s sores and eruptions. bloodâ€"poisoning. scratches, old wounds. varicose ulcers, &c. -All Druggists and Stores sell at 500. a box, or post-free for price from Zam-Buk Co., Toronto.

Pills of Atte-sted Valueâ€"Parme- lee’s Vegetable Pills are the result of careful study of the properties of certain roots and herbs, and the action of such as sedatives and laxatives on the digestive appara- tus. The success the compounders have met with attest-s the value of their work. These pills have been recognized for many years as the best cleaners of the system that can be got. Their excellence was recognized from the first and they grow more popular daily. THE WORLD’S WEALTH. To possess all the gold in the world would appear, to most people, a terible burden; but, pro- viding it was sufficiently insured, it would be little or no trouble. A rough estimate places the value of a cubic yard of gold at $10,000,000; so that all the gold in the world, if melted into ingots, could be con- tained in a cellar twentyâ€"four feet square and sixteen feet high. All the wealth so far obtain-ed from Australia and California could be comfortably tucked away in 3'01”- oflice. All that‘would be required would be an iron safe nine feet square and nine feet high. To give an idea of how small is the little cube of yellow metal, it may be stated that the gold with which Solomon overlaid the “most holy squareâ€"amounted to more than 190,000,000. place”â€"a room- only thirty feet' TRADES FOR SOLDIERS.
