In this letter Mrs. Hurley relates how glad she and her brother are to tell how they were cured of indiges- tion and kidney trouble by Dr, Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. That is the kind of enthusiasm Dr. Chase's medicines arouse and that is why they are so generally known and used to-day. People who are cured tell their friends and neighbors, and so the word is pass- ed along. From the limits of Dr. Chase's practice at Ann Arbor , Mich, the good news of these medicines tra- velled until they are known the world over and considered indis~ 'pensable in many thousands of cine, But got no lasting relief until I uged Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills, I would take severe vomiting spells and be weakened down so that I could not do my own work. I shall never be able fo gjye the medicine enough praise for the benefit derived from its use, and will strongly re commend it to all my friends.

Bat when they reached home they found it nearly covered with snow and the poor things were nearly frozen. The Golden Bumblébee didn't mind it as much a8 the Rosa Fairy for he could easily find a plice to. cpeep into and keep nice and warm, but the fairy eaught a bid cold and was feeling very ill so the bumble bee began to By ground "to all of their friends "find out what it was best to do for All of 'the roses, of course, were still tucked In 'their warm béds the fairy had fixed for them before she went away. They couldn't help much for, you see, they only did what the fairy told them to do, and had been told to go to sleep for the winter, The Rose Fairy looked so ill and mn f tu cold and thin that. finally, the bum- blabee went to his old friend, Dr. Beetle and asked his advice as to what they could do for . the sick fairy. The doctor advised that he 80 to the pussy willows who, he said, would be sure to know bow te help the Queen fairy. . So the bumblebee flew fo the pus- gy willows and they were delighted to help and told him to bring the Rose Fairy to them at once and that they would take care of her until spring really came. While the pus: sy willows were waiting for the bea to bring the fairy they all tdpk off as many of the soft.-downy byds as they could spare from their own coats and made her a bik, warm, fuzzy coat for the sick fairy Lo wear in the cold and also made a nice warm soft bed of thg buds for her to sleep in. They worked so quickly + that when the bee arrived with the fairy they were all ready for her and she slipped on the coat and sat down on the hed with a long sigh of happi- ness at being warm for the first time since she came North.

How painful it must be to learn that in all France there is "less drunken- -~ ness than in the State of Maine" (Chicago American, December 28th), With what a shock will they read of the iRereasing intemperance of Kansas, the illicit distilling through the~South, the bloody, affrays following secret drinkipg in Georgia.
