Violets Are Medicinal.
The news cabled to this country a
few days ago that violets cure cancer
is in reality the discovery of an ex-
ploded myth. In 1902 a similar story
went the rounds of the press. The
only active medicinal agent in the
violet is an acrid poison named by its
discoverer, Bonttayr ‘violine. n acta
as a .tonic in small doses, but as a
purgative and emetic in large quan-
tities. The violet was used as a medi-
cine in ancient Home.

A Wonderful Discovery.
Broadland, S. Dak., April 17—Quite
a sensation has been created here by
the publication of the story of G W.
Gray, who after a special treatment
for three months was prostrate and
helpless and given up to die with
Bright’s Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, but
evidently from the story told by Mr.
Gray, there is a remedy which will
cure it even in the most advanced
stages. This is what he says:
“I was helpless as a little babe. My
wife and I searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Bright's Disease, hoping that I would
be able to find a remedy. After many
failures my w ife insisted that I should
try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. I praise God
for the day when I decided to do so
for this remedy met every phase of
my case and in a short time 1 was
able to get out of bed and after a few
weeks’ treatment 1 was a strong, well
man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my
life.”
A remedy that will cure Bright's
Disease will cure any lesser Kidney
Disease. Dodd’s Kidney Pills are cer-
tainly the most wonderful discovery
which modern medical research ha*
given to the world.

EVERY IMS HIM
HOW HE GOT HID OP HIS OBSTINATE
MUS0ULAE EHEUMATISM.
Mr. Jnnpi Tells of the Way by Which lie
Treated Himself Successfully
"When Doctors Failed.
Six physicians, all of them good, one of
them a specialist, had done their best
for Mr. Jones at different times during
three years, and still he suffered fear-
fully from the tortures of rheumatism.
The rheumatism that lmd been dor-
mant in his system was suddenly
brought to an acute stage by exposure
while he was drawing ice in February,
1901. From that time on for a period
of more than three years he was a con-
stant sufferer. He tried many kinds of
treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn’t
budge. When regular doctors failed,
and one remedy after another proved
useless, many said: “I should think he
would give it up and save his mouey.”
, Of his condition at this time, Mr.
Joues says: “My rheumatism started
iu my right thigh, but iu time it ap-
peared in every hiuscle of my body. I
lost the use of my left arjn en-
tirely and nearly lost the nse of my
right one. My feet were badly affected,
especially the bottoms of the heels.
When my right side was affected there
was swelling, but the left side didn’t
swell when the diseuse settled there.
The internal organs didn’t seem to be
involved at all. The trouble was all in
the muscles and the nerves.”
Among the few who still oncouragod
Mr. Joues to think that a cure might
yet lie found was a friend who had rea-
son for great confidence in Dr. Wil-
liams’ Pink Pills, and acting on hoi
advice he Imught a box of them iu Sep-
tember, 1904. The story of what fol-
lowed is brief, but nothing could bo
more satisfactory.
“ When I was on the third box,” says
Mr. Joues, “ I could realize a change for
the better. I felt sure then that Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills were the right
medicine for my case. I kept on with
them for several weeks longer and now
I am entirely well, aud everybody is
asking what I took."
Mr. William Joues lives at Oxford,
Mich. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills effect
wonderful cures in rheumatism, because
they work directly ou the blood which is
the seat of the diseuse. They are sold
by every druggist.

The Guessers Are at Sea as to Prob-
able Action
Paris, April 18.—The dispatch from
Saigon announcing the presence of
Russian warships at Kamrauh Bay
is considered as showing that Admiral
Bpjeftvensk.v Is not moving north as
fast as expected.
Thg fact that Admiral de Jonqulerre
the French naval commander at Sai-
gon is proceeding to Gamranh Ba> and
the departure from Saigon Iasi night
of a Vessel having on board a cargo
of Russian stores combined to indi-
cate that the Russian rendezvous is
not distant from Saigon and probably
chat It is nun kanirah Bay.
The officials here say th,it no gov-
ernment dispatches have been receiv-
ed. They have been privately inform-
ed that the Russian squadron was off
ihe coast of indo-Uhina two days ago,
but. are positive that the squadron is
now further“north. probably sheltering
plong the coast of A tin an This local-
ity is considered particularly danger-
ous owing to the rocky coast, the cur-
rents and the prevalence of tropical
storm?.
The appearance of a e.Tse of beriberi
at Saigon causese apprehension, ns
ihe malady resonates yellow feVer
and is similarly infectious.
The halt of the Russian squadron
apparently was due to Admiral Rojest-
vensky s desire To have irmrppwtunity,
to communicate with St. Petersburg
ami gather information concerning the
movements ot the Japanese.
St. Petersburg, April IS.—A high
placed admiral expressed J» the Asso-
ciated Press tlm firm conviction that
Admiral Togo would not give battle
near the Pescador Islands, Formosa
| Straits. He said:
"It would be a great tactical error
! to concentrate his squadron S00 miles
I from Japan and run the risk of hav-
ling Rojestvensky slip by. when by re-
| maining at home waters Rojestvensky
must come to him in order to reach
Uis own base, Vladivostok.
"All the Tokio dispatches about the
prooalaniath.n of martial law in Pesca-
dor Island and the probable presence
of a Japanese squadron in Formosan
waters are sent as blinds. We do not
know Rojestvensky's plans. He has

China’s Population.
W. W. Itockhill, the newly appointed
American ministter to China, and a
well known Eastern traveler and au-
thor, says that the present population
of China, instead of being, as it usual-
ly given, nearly 450,000,000, is probab-
ly not much over 250,000,000. The cen-
sus of 1741, which Mr. Rockhill con-
siders more reliable than any other,
shows 143,000,000. Considering the nu-
merous devastating famines and wars
of the succeeding 150 years, the natu-
ral annual Increase would be small.
Far from being overpopulated, many
portions of China cuuld support a
greatjy increased population.
Study Brains of Geniuses.
An attempt is being made to form
a society which shall have for its ob-
ject the education of the public to a
realization of the advantages to sci-
ence attending the study of the brains
of illustrious personages. A commit-
tee consisting of Dr. Alexander Hed-
licke, Dr. E. A. Spitzka and Professor
B. G. Wilder has been appointed for
the purpose of preparing a general
form of brain bequest which will hold
in law and not be rendered n ill by any
action that may be tqken by relatives
of the person making the bequest.
