C, SwaMOB %t «fea OteaeO Staffs Yore* Tells aa lag Story. Council Bluffs, Iowa, (Special.)--Kindhearted Officer Swan son of the local police force is very popular in this city. He has lived here for seventeen years, and has en- Joyed many high offices in social and society work. He is now Vice-Presi­ dent of the "Dannebrog" Brotherhood, the largest Danish secret society in America, * which combines benevolent with the social feature^. Owing to the constant exposure and many hours on feet, which his duty as a police makes unavoidable, Mr. Swan- son became the victim of serious Kid­ ney and Liver Trouble. He was vary bind, but has entirely recovered. He gires the story in his own words as follows: "I have been a sufferer for manjr years with Kidney and Liver Trouble^ and have tried many remedies, some of which gave me temporarily relief, and others which were absolutely worth­ less. I began to think that there was no help for me, when my nephew gave me a part of a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills which he had left, saying that it would do no harm to try them, as they had certainly fixed him all right. What he gave me helped me so much that I felt justified in purchasing more, and I grew slowly better. It took almost two months to effect a complete cure, as mine was a very bad case, but I can cheerfully and truthfully say that I am a well man today, and I am very grateful that Dodd's Kidney Pills were thus brought to my notice." The wonderful cures effected by Dodd's Kidney Pills in Iowa have cre­ ated quite a sensation in some parts of the state. There does not seem to be any case of Lame Back, Rheuma­ tism, Kidney or Bladder Trouble which these wonderful Pills cannot cure. They are certainly popular here, and the sale through the local druggists is very large. • A needle machine turns tut MUfc- 009 needles in a week. :S ; NERVOUS ouhed by . •- 'jf,- ' • Or.

COLLECTORS Persons Horsewhipped in India for Objecting to Dues. In India the native tax collector is intensely proud of his position and has methods which are, to say the least of ingenious. The small amount of oversight which he receive ̂tends toi»ftke him despotic, and he gets his pound of flesh in a manner entirely hla own. It iB said, however, that the coaicientioU8 performance of his du­ ties is likely to get him into trouble, if the, recent inquiry relating to the Gvuuurat district substantiates the flam- plaints that have been made. Gujarat is a maritime province in the Northern part of the Bombay preaidency and, al­ though some of tha districts are flour- lahing, others are in a poverty-stricken state owing to the barrenness of the soU. This gradually becomea worse aa the briny spray from the sea causes a deterioration of fertility. The aver­ age tax collector there has a matter- of-fact, every-day system of horsewhip­ ping persons who object to paying their revenue dues. By way of variation, or whan a whip is not at hand, its place Is taken by a stick, club or by boot leather. If the culprit has a skin with which this treatment is not persuasive other methods are tried and an in­ stance of unsurpassed degradation is reported from the village of Bhatgaum. At thta place a man from whom some money was due was led through the atreets by a rope with which his handa were tied. The rope was then put Into the hands of a Dhed, who led the man to the neighboring village of Olpad. Western people may not see anything very heavy in this treatment, but con­ veying a man with his hands tied is considered specially degrading by the natives of India. In addition, a Dhed belongs to one of the lowest castes, whom people are not permitted to touch, so that being led, or practically driven by such a person, is about the depth of degradation in the eyes of these people. In other cases families have been turned out of their homes at a moment's notice, often suffering great privation. Others have been tor bidden to use the village well, an order which means great distress in a hot country. Houses, cattle and landa have in many instances been "attached,* proceeding better translated at tha present time by the word "comman­ deered," and in many cases the trou­ ble has been made worse by resource to money lenders. Wives have been compelled to sell their wedding pres­ ents, which every class of people In Guzarat are obliged to make on tha marriage of a relative. These presents are the sole property of the wives and it is considered not only improper and dishonorable, but Sacrilegious, tor suoh to be sold, or even pledged. Lullaby Her Death Song. To the music of a soothing lullaby, playad softly on a piano, Florence Pal­ mer, 19 years old, died in Chicago the other day at the home of her aunt, Mis. Sullivan. Miss Palmer was the daughter of Matthew Palmer, of Wau- kegan, 111., and had been ailing for a long time.' Feeling that dissolution was near, the dying girl, who was very fond of music, asked her friend, Emily Michaels, who was watching at har bedaide, to play something on the o. Miss Michaels at first demur­ red, but the Importunities of Miss Pal­ mar at laat prevailed and she turned and opened the instrument Soon the melodious notes of the lullaby filled the room, and the gratification of the fast-falling patient waa pictured in her worn countenance. When the melody waa about finished the smile on Miss Palmer's face vanished, and just as the last notes of the old song were sounded she passed away In perfect peace.

How the value of land has gone up in the Highlands of Scotland, as well as elsewhere, is evidenced from some extracts that have been given to the press from the MS. of the late Rev.

Some rentals in Kintyre, as compared with those of the latter half of last century, have gone up a thousand fold, and that without taking into consider­ ation the value of the shootings sad fishings.
