IT MUST BE WELL FOUNDED STEADY GROWTH IN POPtTLAB.- ITY OF DODD'S KIDNEY PUXS. Kade by Cures Like that o{ Simon V. I.andryâ€" He Tells About it Himself. Rivei' Bourgois, Richmond Co., C. B â€" July 3. â€" (Special). â€" Among the many men in this part of Canada whom Dodtl's Kidm-y Tills have re- lieved of aches and pains and weak- ness and made strong and able to do a good day's work is Mr. Simon V. Landry. Mr. Landry has numerous friends here who can vouch for the story he tells of his cure. "1 was bothered for over a year," he says, "with lame back, weak legs, palpitation of the heart, gen- eral weakness and shortness of breath; in fact I could not work and was a total wreck. "I could not get anything to help me till I tried Dodd's Kidney Pills. But they did me good and no mis- take. I used three boxes and I'm back at work again." It is the cures they make that make Dodd's Kidney Pills so popu- lar. Their popularity has grown steadily for thirteen years. It must be well founded. RAILWAY COLLISIONS. The figures showing the number of fatalities in collisions alone on Unit- ed States railways are appalling and show a constant increase in recent years. They are given by the Inter- state Commission, as follows: Passengers: Killed. Injured. 1899 61 815 •1900 65 1,263 1901 55 1,458 1902 133 2,360 1903 123 2,975 Employes: Killed. Injured. 1899 187 1,368 1900 264 1,576 1901 348 2,089 •1903 424 2,759 1903 574 3,772 The record for the present year, as shown by the reports made to the commission under the re<iuirements of the accident law of March 3, 1901 shows no diminution of fatalities. For the first three months there were 221 killed and 2,797 iiijuretl in rail- way catastrophes. 'ITiose are the only figures compiled for the cur- rent year by the commission. 4 SMOKE ALL THE TTIffE. Tb« Dutch Get their Smoking^ S*- markably Cheap. The Hollanders are, perhaps, of all the Northern peoples, those who smoke the most. The humidity of their climate makes it almost a necessity, and the very moderate cost of tobacco renders it accessible to all. To show how deeply rooted is the habit, it is enough to say that the boatsmen of the trekshuit, the aquatic diligence of Holland, meas- ure distances by smoke. From here, they say, to such a place it is, not so many miles, but so many pipes. When you enter a house, after the first salutations, your host otlers you a cigar; when you take leave he hands you another, and often in- sists upon filling your cigar cose. In the streets you .see pers,)us lighting a fresh cigar with the burn- ing slump of the last one, without^ pausing in their walk, and with the' busy air of people who do not wish to lose a moment of time or a mouthful of smoke. Many go to sleep with pipe in mouth, relight it if they wake in the nigVit, ami again in the morning before they step out of bed. It really does appear that smoking is for the Dutchman a necessary vital function. Many people think that so much smoke dulls the intelligence. Nev- ertheless, if there be a people, as Esquiroz justly observes, whose In- tellect is of the clearest and "liqihest precision, it is the Dutch people. "Smoke," said a Hollander, "is our second breath." Another delincd the cigar as the sixth linger of the hand.

Sea battles at the present time do not result in such great rewards of prize money as formerly. English sailors in times past have brought groat fortunes home after their suc- cessful cruises. In the war with Hol- land. 1631-51, English ships are said to have taken 1,700 prizes, worth $30,00.000. In 1657 the Spaniards loaded Hritish sailors with treasure. They seizetl two of the Spanish gal- leons so richly laden with gold uiid Jewels that it took thirty-eight wagons to carry the treasure from Portsmouth to London. In 1761 came the historic capture of the Her- mione, the Spanish treasure ship from Linuj. The admiral and cajv tains received us their share $325.- 000 apiece, the lieutenants $65,000, warrant otbeers about $2O,00O, petty officers nearly $10,000. and even the common .seanmn $2..°>00 each.

One of the strangest cases of klep- tomania ever brought to light was heard of in Paris. A certain lady had such a passion for smoking and for coloring meorchauni pipes of this description from shops. In the Hat which she occupied there were found no fewer than 2.600 pipes, not one of which, it is believed, she paid for.

Boots are only worn in China by ofliciols, servants, soldiers, sailors, j and special hob-nailed boots, occa- ! slonnlly in wet weather, by the ct>m- ' mou people.
