On the Vergs of Bright's Disease. A Quick Cure That Lasted, CASE NO. 30,611.—0C, E, Boles, dealer in grain and feed, 505 South Water street, Akron, O., made the following statement in 180G; he said: “Ever since the Civil War I have had attacks of kidney and bladder trouble, decid: edly worse during the last two or three years. Although I cousulted physi cians, some of whom told me I was verging on Bright's disease, and I was continually using standard remedies, the excruciating aching just across the kidneys, which radiated to the shoul der blades, still existed. As might be expected when my kidneys were in a disturbed condition, there was a dis- tressing and Inconvenient difficuity with the action of the kidney secre. tions. A box of Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Lamparter & Co.'s drug store, brought such a decided change within a week that I continued the treatment. The last attack, and it was particularly aggravated, disappeared.” Three Years After. Mr. Boles says in 1888: “In the spring of 1896 I made a public state. ment of my experience with Doan's Kidney Pills. This remedy cured me of a terrible aching in the kidneys, in the small of my back, in the muscles of the shoulder blades, and in the limbs. During the years that have gone by I can conscientiously say there have been no recurrences of my old trouble. My confidence in Doan's Kid- ney Pills is stronger than ever, not only from my personal experience, but from the experience of many oth: ers in Akron which have come to my Dotice.” A FREE TRIAL of this great kid- ney medicine which cured Mr. Boles will be mallad on application to any part of the United States.

Cat Forty-Two Years Old. Herr Pohl, president of the German Society for the Protection of Cats, has just published the results of his inves tigation in regard to the age which it is possible for these animals to at tain. Cats, be says, are like human beings in one respect. The more peaceful and better regulated their life is the longer they are llkely to live. As a proof, he points out that a favorite eat in the royal castie of Nymphen- burg has lived to be forty-two years old, and consequently may fairly claim to be considered the dean of cats in Germany. That this remarkable animal has still some youth in her is evident from the fact that she gave birth to a kit- ten two years ago.
