"I suffered from dispepsia and in-, digestion for fifteen years," says W. T. Sturdevant of Merry Oaks, N. C. 'After I had tried many doctors ana medicines to no avail one of my friends persuaded me to try Kodol. It gave immediate relief. I can eat almost any­ thing I want now and my digestion is good. I cheerfully recommend Kodol." Don't try to cure stomach trouble by dieting. That only further weakens the system. You need wholesome, strengthening food. Kodol enables you to assimilate what you eat by digesting it without the stomach's aid. Julia A. A. Story, McHenxy; G. W. Besley, West McHenry.

The weather has been generally warrn throughout the state during the past week and excessive rains have fallen oyer the greater portion of the northern and central districts. These conditions have been favorable fer the growth of vegetation, but considerable damage to growing crops has resulted from flood­ ing and washing of fields and from high winds. The greatest damage oc­ curred in the counties of the north central portion of the state. In those parts of the northern and central dis­ tricts where the rains were not so heavy the general condition of the crops is very fine. Farm work has been delayed vejy much during the week over most of the northern and central districts, but especially over the northern district. In parts of the southern district good rains have fallen, especially toward the end of the week, but over most of the district they have been insufficient to meet the needs of vegetation, and in many localities crops are suffering greatly for rain. Chinch bugs are be­ coming plentiful in this district and are causing considerable damage. Wheat and rye are generally doing well in the northern and central districts, though there has been some damage by lodging, and more is feared. In the central dis­ trict wheat is nearly ready for harvest­ ing, and in some localities harvesting has already begun. In the southern district harvesting is well advanced, with a good yield promised in some localities and a poor yield in others. Considerable damage has resulted both from chinch bugs and dry weather. The outlook for the crop of oats is very promising, though there has been a rank growth over much of the central and northern districts and there has already been some damage by lodging. In the southern district the crop has improved. Over most of the state con­ ditions have been favorable for the growth of oorn, and in the central dis­ trict the crop is generally clean. In the northern district continued showery weather has prevented cultivation and fields are getting very weedy. There has been some damage by flooding and washing. In parts of the southern dis­ trict chinch bugs and dry weather have caused some damage. Broom corn ap­ pears to be doing welL Meadows and pastures are generally good, but they need rain badly in parts of the southern district. Cow peas are being sown and coming up nicely. Potatoes and garden truck are generally doing well, but potatoes have been injured somewhat in the northern district ty excessive rains and in the southern district by dry weather. The fruit prospects are somewhat less favorable than last week. Much fruit was blown off trees by high winds during the week. Spring Fever. Spring fever is another name for billiousness. It is more serious than most people think. A torpid liver and inactive bowels mean a poisoned system. If neglected, serious illness may follow such symptoms. DeWitt's Little Early Risers remove all danger by stimulating the 'liver, opening the bowels and cleansing the spstem of impurities. Safe pills. Never gripe. "I have taken DeWitt's Littie Early Risers for torpid liver every spring for years," writes R. M. Everly, Moundsville, W. Va. "They do me more good than anything I have ever tried." Julia A.

One of the particularly distinguishing features of The Chicago Rectrd-Herald is its series of high-class art pictures given away with its Sunday edition, Many of these supplements are fac­ simile reproductions of the world's famous masterpieces, the originals of which in many instances have sold for prices ranging from $10,000 to $50,000. The best pictures of well-known artists, such as Ihlfeld, Beirney, Vely, Ryson and many others, have been reproduced so perfectly that they excite the admira­ tion and wonder of all who see them. These pictures are not only greatly ad­ mired because of their beauty, but many of them are highly instructive on account of the subjects they represent. They are selected with great care, and Record-Herald readers are assured that in this, as in everything connected with The Record-Herald, they will always get the best that can be procured. , His Last Hope Realized. (From lliu Seutluul, Oebo, Mont.) In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper was among the mamy seekers after fortune who made a big race one fine day in April. During his traveling about and afterwards his camping upon his claim, he encountered much bad water, which together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case be­ came so bad he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in a few minutes the dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed and within an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleep for a fortnight. That one little bottle worked a complete enre, and he cannot help but feel grateful. The season for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by all druggists. Placing Himself. One day a drill sergeant In the Brit­ ish army had a number of recruits to drill and wanted the married men sep­ arated from the single ones, so he form­ ed them In a line and gave the word of command, "Single men advance and married men fall back in the rear!" All took their positions except one. an Irishman, who stood still. The ser­ geant asked the reason why he bad uut moved, but no answer came from Pat "Come, my man, are you married 1" "No," replied Pat ••Then you are single 1" "No." "Then what are you?" "I am courtin' Biddy," was the re­ ply. A Qaestioa of Dlsiaer Time. A cardinal who commanded the troops of Pope Boniface IX. In the march of Acona, finding himself on one occasion in a position In which he must conquer or die, promised his soldiers that At th^y secured the victory those who fell should dine that very day with the. angels. They marched to the combat with alacrity, but finding that the cardinal was careful not to expose himself, "How is It" said Qne of them, "that you show no anxiety for the ce­ lestial banquet to which you have in­ vited us so warmly?" "Because It is not yet my dinner time, and 1 am not hungry."--All the Year Round. The Plrat Knlttlnff MachlaM. In the reign of Queen Elizabeth first mention is made of band knitting.

Saved From an awful Fate. "Everybody said I had oonsnmption," writes Mrs. A. M. Shields, of Chambers- burg, Pa., "I was so low after six months of severe sickness, caused by Hay Fever and Asthma, that few thought I could get well, but I learned of the marvelous merit of Dr. King s New Discovery for Consumption, used it, and was com­ pletely cured."

Hotel keepers in the Alps have a new trouble and are complaining of the loss of patrons, who are moving away from the glaciers. Yes, the attractive gla­ ciers are actually passing from the landscape, and as they recede the ho­ tels along their borders find that their registers are shortening. These glaciers are nOt running away by any means, but they are deteriorat­ ing slowly with a persistency that means their final annihilation. Hotels that a few years ago stood very near to a great river of slowly moving ice now find themselves a considerable dis­ tance away, and the attractiveness of the site is lessened. i The famous glaciers of the Rhone have shrunk 3,000 feet In the last twen­ ty years, or about 110 feet a year. A number of the well known glaciers ap­ proximate this diminution, and the sci­ entific fact Is established that these re­ minders of the great glacial period are surely disappearing. Virulent Cancer Cured. Startling proof of a wonderful ad­ vance in medicine is given -by druggist G. W. Roberts of Elizabeth, W. Va. An old man there had long suffering with what good doctors pronounced in­ curable cancer. They believed his case hopeless till he used Electric Bitters and applied Bucklen's Arnica Salve, which treatment completely cured him. When Electric Bitters are used to expel bilious, kidney and microbe poisons at the same time this salve exerts its matchless healing power, blood diseases, skin eruptions, ulcers and sores vanish.

Downing street, London, perpetuates the name of a clever man from Massa­ chusetts. Those were the days before ^ the Fourth of July had any significance In American annals, and George Down­ ing, the first scholar in the first public school in Massachusetts and the first graduate sent out by Harvard college, came to England and became a chap­ lain In Cromwell's army. By a remarkable stroke of fortune he was sent to represent England at The Hague when Europe was trem­ bling before Oliver, and during three distinct eras In England's history he held the office of British embassador at the Dutch court. He was as popu­ lar or as clever under the Merry Mon­ arch as under the protector and the commonwealth, and it came to pass, in the reign of Charles II., that the man from Massachusetts was granted a great tract of land at Westminster, where he built huge mansions and laid out Downing street v To this day Downing's street Is Downing street still, and, though George Downing ]a forgotten, there Is no name In the British empire which is more familiar to ud than. his.--St James Gazette.
