._â€"_â€"_.__._ Gliltlllllls UN lRANSlJflNllNElllll ALPHONSE JONELLE TELLS TALE WITH HUMAN INTEREST. Hardships attending work brought on Kidney Disease which threat- ened his life.â€"Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured him. Chicoutimi Ville, Chicoutimi 00., Que", March 13 (Special) â€"â€" The trials of those men who push the great railroads through the ob- stacles Nature thrusts in their way have been proclaimed in many a page of fiction. But no story ever told is of more absorbing interest or teaches a greater moral than the actual experiences of Alphonse Jonelle, foreman on the Transcon- tinental, and well known here. “I contracted Kidney Disease working on the Transcontinental, where I am a foreman,” Mr. Jonelle states. “My skin had a harsh, dry feeling, and it itched and burned at night. I was always tired. Then came the pangs of rheumatism, and I finally got so bad I could not at- tend to my work. For five years I suffered, and in the end Bright’s Disease developed. - “Then I began to use Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Six boxes cured me completely. Dodd’s Kidney Pills also cured my wife, who was suf- fering from Kidney Disease.” From all parts of Canada, and every day reports come of Kidney Disease cured by Dodd’s Kidney Pills. There is never a case report- ed where Dodd’s Kidney Pills have failed. They never fail. SAVED rnonwwonnnousn. Story of Robert Blatchford, the English Socialist. Robert Blatchford, best known as editor of the Clarion and author of “Merrie England,” has put into his stories many of his own advenâ€" tures in London, where, as a mere boy, he walked the streets, hunt- ing for work to save himself from actual starvation. The following story, quoted in A. Neil Lyons’ life of Blatchford, has served “inter- ests,” chief of which, perhaps, is its testimony to the enduring qualâ€" ity of the mother passion. The boy, tired out and despairing, had final- ly gone to the police office for a ticket to the Clerkenwell Work- lious-e. Waiting outSide with other vagrants, he sat down on the pave- ment by a miserable woman. She was a swarthy woman, her skin tanned by long exposure to the weather. She were no bonnet, and was smoking a short black pipe. I watch-ed her for some time, and thought what a bold, hard, wicked face she had, and at length, more from curiousity to hear her speak than for any-desire for in- formation, I v-entured to ask her a question about the tickets. She turned upon me with a scowl, which gradually melted away as she looked at me, and at last said, not unkindly: “What do you want to know for, boy? You’re not going to Clerkenâ€" well, are you ’2" I said I was. She sat smoking for a few minutes, then took her pipe from her lips and stroking her chin with her great brown hand, said, very much to my surprise: “You mustn’t; no, you mustn’t. You’re only a boy, and not used to any kind 0’ wickedness, I can see. 'Don’t you go, boy; don’t you go.” “I have no other place to sleep,” I said. She shook her head. “Sleep in the streets; boy, sleep son the bridges; anywhere but there. It’s the worst workhouse in all London. No, you mustn’t go.” “But you are going.” . “Oh, me,” she said, and laiighed. “It’s good enough for me. But you are different. A11, don’t be stub- born. Take an old woman’s ad- vice. It’s a cruel place. Don’t go, don’t go.“ “I’m not a child,” I said. She laughed again, not pleasant- ‘Ty, and answered, “You know noth- in’, nothin’. I know all. through it all.” Then, very earnestly, she contin- Jed, leaning close to me, “Be ad- rised, now. Be told. I know these 1Lplaces; and I’ve had sons of me Been She nodded and put the pipe back in her moutn. “Good,” she said, her attenion another way. >l< BLIND OBE'DIENCE. A gentleman had a new head garâ€" dener who never thought of havâ€" ing a holiday or missing a day from work, and SO somewhat surprised his (employer by asking him if he could have “nixt Friday off.” His request was immediately granted; but on the Saturday he did not show up. and a week went past, and then a fortnight, and still no sign of Mike. The gentleman reluctantly employed another man in Mike’s place. About three months afterwards he was surprised on going into. the grounds to find Mike at work just as if nothing had happened. - “Where have you been to, Michael?” he asked. “Well, sorr, it’s loike this. You remimber the day you let me off? I had to appear at the coort as a witness. When I gets there, I sees the ould gint with the wig on ’is ’ead and ’is specs on the tip of ’is nose. “‘Michael Dboley,’ sez ’e. “ ‘Yis, sorr,’ sez I. “‘Go into that box,’ says ’e.
