A Physician Testifies.
"I have taken Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
and have never used anything in my
life that did me the good that did," says
County Physician Geo. W. ScrogKs of
Hall Connty, Ga. ' Being a physician I
have prescribed it and found it to give
the best results." If the food you eat
remains undigested in your stomach it
decays there and poisons the system. You
can prevent this by dieting but that
means starvation. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
digests what you eat. You need suffer
trom neither dyspepsia nor starvation.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1901.
WrltlnK n Book.
The following confession of a novel
ist as to the method In which he wrote
one of his books Is not, without inter
est. He had had the story outlined in
his notebook for a long time and ought
to have been able to write it, but did
not feel able. Then one day he hap
pened to think of it again and saw, al- 1
most as if it had been a stage scene, !
the little tableau with which the book |
was to close—one of those ends which |
•re also a beginning. So he began to J
work and in a short lime had complet- |
ed the tirst three chapters. Then, for J
no reason that he can give, there was a !
Jump, and he wrote the chapters which j
are now numbered XXI aud XXII, the |
last in the book. Then he went back j
and wrote straight on from IV to XVII. j
The story had been with him so long I
that it was the easiest tiling in the j
world to write it.and so lie got through ■
this part of the work with remarkable ;
celerity. In the eighteenth chapter
nothing happens. Every day for a !
fortnight he rose, breakfasted and tried
to write that ehapter; every night he <
tore up a big pile of manuscript which 1
he knew to be hopelessly bad. Then
he got desperate. The chapter should
be written and should stand, whether i
good or bad. lie wrote it and left the ;
house because it was bad and lie had i
resolved not to tear It up. Next day '
lie wrote chapter XIX. and on tlie mor- j
row he rewrote chapter XVIII and ;
somehow or other contrived to get into j
It all that he had failed to get before, j
Then ho wrote chapter XX, and the |
book was completed.—London Post.

Obeyed Order*.
An old Yorkshire farmer was walk
ing out one day looking very glum and
miserable. He was a typical York- j
shireman, and he dearly loved a joke. ;
But jokes seemed a long way off just !
then, and the old ninn was thinking j
deeply when he was accosted by a j
tramp, who made the usual request for j
a night's lodgiDgs and something to J
eat, as he explained he had had noth- i
lug for two whole days. The effect ;
upon the farmer when he said this was ;
magical.
"Why, man,"he said, "I've been look- j
ing for you all day."
And then without more ado lie
knocked him down and walked on him
from one end to the other. The tramp
got up, looking very staggered, and
asked him why 110 had done that.
"Well," said lie, "my doctor has or
dered me to walk on an empty stomach,
and now that I have fulfilled his in
junction I can go and have a good feed,
and you can come with me."—London

Dathlnß In Sn.lt Luke.
"Salt lake is a remarkable sheet of
water in many ways, and bathing In it
possesses features which are unique,"
says a Utah man."lt is very invigor
ating and refreshing, to be sure, but it
takes some time to become accustomed
to the extraordinary buoyancy of the
water. It Is quite impossible to sink
or to drown in the lake, but many peo
ple have been killed by the water.
When there is a breeze and spray is
dashed upon bathers, the water is so
dense.ly impregnated with salt that the
liquid portion evaporates very quickly
aud leaves a deposit of salt on the skin.
"On several occasions people have
drifted out while bathing or been
wrecked and thrown overboard and aft
erward found dead 011 top of the water,
choked to death by the accumulation of
salt in their mouths and nostrils."

Child Ilaptlnm In Early Day*. |
The following from the early court
records of York county, Me., we give
verbatim et literatim: "At a general
court held at Saco Sept. 17, 1040, it is
ordered by the court that the Worship
ful Thomas Georges and Edward God
frey, councillors for this province, shall
order all the Inhabitants from Pisca
taquis to Kenebache, which shall have
any children unbaptized 11s sooii as
any minister is settled In any of tlieir
plantations, they bring their said chil
dren to baptism, and if any shall refuse
to submit to the said order that the
party so refusing shall be summoned
to answer their contempt at the next
general court to be holden in this prov
inca"—Lewlston Journal.

"Brownly thinks be has the smartest
child in the world."
"Yes," answered the morose man.
"That illustrates the ingratitude of life.
There isn't one chance in a thousand
that that child when he grows up will
go around declaring that he has the
smartest father In the world."—Wash

A Woman Balancing.
When a woman stoops over to pick 1
op something on tlie floor, why does }
she always balance herself 011 one foot, 1
extending the other outward and back
ward as a counterpoise? This ques» |
tion, not new, never has been satisfac- |
torlly answered.—New York Press. i
Painting Costs Half.
Devoe lead and zinc outlasts lead and i

"Buttonholes Sold Here."
"Button Holes For Sale Here" is a

I "You sell buttonholes here?" was
I isked.
I "Naw, we make "em!" she exclaimed,
I with as much disgust as a very squeaky
I voice was capable of showing,
j "Well, the sign In the window says"—
"Never mind the sign!" she snapped
| ftnek. "What do you want with me?"
! She was finally persuaded to tell
i something of her new business,
j "You see, it's this way," she began.
! "The working girls who live over here
have to dress pretty well and do it on
! little money. Most of 'em makes their
; own clothes, but they have not too
much time to do the work in. Now, if
you was a woman you'd know that it
was mighty hard to make buttonholes,
specially by hand. Poor girls can't af

A Yonthfnl financier.
1 A correspondent asks. Will some of
! your mathematical geniuses kindly tell
1 me if I am absolutely devoid of the
calculating faculty in not being able
i to see through the following three
) cornered trick, shall I say? A beggar
! boy asked an old gentleman in the
street for sixpence.
I "What will you do with it If I give
| you one?" asked the old gentleman.
"Turn it into ninepence quick," re-
I plied the boy.
"How?"
"Give me the tanner, and I'll soon
I show you."
Tlie boy got the money, darted off to
I a baker's shop and bought a three
penny loaf, with which he returned to
the old gentleman and handed him
back 3 pennies.
"How's this? You said you would
make the sixpence into ninepence."
"So I have. The baker's got three
pence, you've got threepence and I've
got a threepenny loaf. That's nine
pence,"—Pearson's Weekly.
Canadian Eari.
In cold couutries like Canada the
ears nre often forced to grow in an un
natural way by the custom of forcing
the caps down over the skull and mak
ing the ears stick out. It is only Amer
ican ears which get frostbitten in Can
ada. The ears of the natives are in
ured to excessive cold.
Colds That "hang On."
A cold taken at this time of tb«? year,
unless "broken up" may on"
all winter, and is apt to run into Grip,
Catarrh or Bronchitis, and possibly
break up the health of a life time.
Nothing can be more important than
the cure of a fall cold. It means so
much, it should have prompt attention.
