Landing, Alta., Oct. 20 (Speeial).â€"That Kidney Disease, neglected in its earlier stages, leads t'. the most terrible suffering, if not death itself, and that the one sure cure for it in all stages is Dodd’s Kidney Pills, is the experi- ence of Mr. James E. Brant, & farmer residing near here. 7 Mr. Brant contracted Kidney Dis- ease, when a young man, from a strain, and like hosts of others, neglected it, expecting it to go away itself. ' ' But it kept gradually growing worse, till after thirty years of in- creasing suffering the climax came, and he found himself so crippled that at times he could not turn in bed, and for two weeks at a time it was impossible for him to rise from a chair hands on his knees. He could not button his clothes. He was troubled with Lumbago, Gravel and Backache, and tried medicines for each and all of them without getting relief, till good luck turned him to Dodd’s Kidney Pills. ‘ Dodd’s Kidney Pills started at the cause of his troubles and cured his Kidneys. With cured Kidneys his other troubles speedily disap- peared, and to-day he is a well man. > If you cure yOur Kidneys with Dodd’s Kidney Pills you will never have Lumbago, Rheumatism, Heart Disease, Dropsy or Bright’s Dis- ease.‘ . - ._..,1‘ MURDERED 20 WIVES. Cruel Annam Emperor Condemned to Perpetual Exile. Than Thai, King, or, as he is sometimes called, Emperor of An- nam, the most fantastically cruel monarch of modern times, has been condemned to perpetual exile in Algeria by the French Government. Than Thai murdered twenty of . his pretty little wives with tortures of inconceivable cruelty and hor- ror. Annam is a large country of southâ€"eastern Asia, which is under a French protectorate. France per- mits the native Emperor to rule his own country absolutely in internal affairs except where French inter- ests are specially concerned. Thus it happened that the Emperor was at liberty to carry on murder and torture in his harem for many weeks before anybody ventured to interfere. Finally the French broke into, the Emperor’s palace, which he had turned into a morass of blood, and seized the crazy mon- arch. That was nearly two years ago. Since then the Emperor has been kept under restraint and close observation. authorities *â€" Ill fitting boots and shoes cause corns. Holloway’s Corn Cure is the article to use.

Whether “brumby” is a survival of the aboriginal name for a wild horse or a corruption of “unbrand- ed” appears to be a question which philologists have left undecided, but brumby hunting is still a favor- iie sport in New South Wales, says the London Standard. Districts like the Clarence and Stephens and Manning River water- shed are still the home of numer- ous droves of brumbies, and hunt- ing them is, declared to be a very exhilarating pastime. The first step taken is to stake out a corral and make all secure except a nar- row entrance, which can subse- quently ‘be gated. On either side of the entrance and projecting from it funnelwise a “booby fence” is prepared. To the simple minded brumby it presumably looks like a. stockade, and pieces of fluttering cotton make it look impregnable. When this is ready the young bloods, well mountâ€" ed, gallop out and round up the wild horses, driving them with shouts and much loud snapping of stock whips toward the mouth of the funnel. In a group of brumbies there is always a leader, and when once the hunters have got the leader for the corral they are pretty certain of the rest of the drove. The fluttering cotton rags of the sham fence are sufficient to deter the bruinbies from breaking through the flimsy barriers, and in less time than it takes to tell the wild horses are safely corralled and the big gate shut on them. Then they are left for four and twenty hours without food and water to reflect on the situation, and after that they can be broken 1’: without much difi’iculty. THE DETERMINING TEETH.

Want Home Life as Other Countries. One of the most difficult questions which will have to be solved by new Turkey is that of the future of Tur- kish women. It has already given rise to considerable discussion, and W111 sooner or later become a na- tional question. For many years among the better classes there has been a steady movement toward emancipation, and the old Turkish life has prac- tically disappeared in all the houses of the educated people. The change came with education, as the daugh- ters of the house were trained by foreign g0vernesses. They began to read foreign literature and pop em, and brought up their children better than themselves, with the reâ€" sult that no family of any conse- quence keeps up the old Turkish customs in their entirety. Thus very few modern Turks have more than one wife, the life in their houses is quite European, includâ€" ing their dress, mode of living, food, etc. Only out~of~doors do they wear the veil as before. But the women want more; they want to institute home life, and many have done so already. They also desire to receive visitors withâ€" out restriction, and adopt more be- coming dress in public. ‘The eduâ€" cated Turks have no objection to this, provided the change is not-too quick, as they also have mixed in foreign society and feel the want of ladies in Turkish society. If it remained with this class alone the change would come' rapidly, but there are the common classes and the country people, who cannot unâ€" derstand it, and can never imagine any change by which theirwomcn folk should be anything else than what they have been for centuries. And it is noteworthy that in the provinces that whenever reaction- aries have tried to start a movement against the constitution they have always declared that one of the first that I am completely cured. objects of the constitution would be the complete emancipation of the women and their going about un- veiled, and this has never failed to excite the people, as was the case at Medina, where the stiuation was saved by the arrival of a number of troops and the arrest of the agita- tors.
