DAYS OF DIZZINESS
Come to Hundreds of .McConnellsburg
People.
There are days of dizzmess;
Spells of headache, laDguor,
backache;
Sometimes rheumatic pains;
Orton urinary disorders.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especi
ally for kidney ills.
Endorsed in McConnellsburg
by grateful friends and neigh
bors. Mrs. Luoinda Clevenger, Wa
ter St., McConnellsburg, Pa.,
says: "I know from several
years experience with Doan's
Kidney Pills that they do good
work. I was in poor health for
some time. My back ached bad
ly and I couldn't do my house
work. I had dizzy spells and
chills and was annoyed by the
kidney secretions. Often swell
mg appeared under my eyes, and
I was very nervous at night. I
was troubled by rheumatic twing
es. I finally used Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured at Trout's Drug
Store, and since then I haven't
been troubled by my back or
kidneys. I can't say too much
for this remedy."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills the
same that Mrs. Clevenger had.

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
By A. W. MACY.
AN INVASION THAT DID NOT
TAKE PLACE.
In 1386 th young king of
France, Charles VI., was per
suaded by his uncles, of whom
he had a good supply, to Invade
England, and an army of 40,000
men was assembled In Flandera
for the purpose. Great prepara
tions were made for the expe
dition. Every soldier provided
himself with a plllard, or hired
man to go along and collect
plunder for him. An enormous
tent was constructed, which It
would require seventy-two ves
sels to transport In sections
across the channel. Just what
this tent was for Is not quite
elear. When all was ready for
the grand start It was found
that the youthful king was
drunk. When hs sobered up he
decided to wait for the arrival
of one of his uncles. By the
time the uncle arrived the king
had changed hla mind, and con
cluded not to make the Invasion
after all. The army disbanded
and the stores which had been
collected were plundered. The
boats upon which the parts of
the great tent had been loaded
got away from their moorings
and drifted Into the mouth of
the Thames. The English
seized them, and found the
great tent useful In a variety of
ways.

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
ARCTIC ADVENTURE OF THE
SHIP RESOLUTE.
By A. W. MACY.
In 1845 Sir John Franklin
went In search of a northwest
passage, with two ahips and
168 men. All were tost In the
frozen regions of the north.
Many expeditions were sent In
search of the lost explorers. In
1852 Sir Edward Belcher con
ducted such an expedition, with
five ahlps under his command.
All five of the vessels became
Ice-bound, and were finally
abandoned. In 1855 the captain
of an American whaling vessel
sighted a strange looking ship
In Davis Strait No signals were
put out or answered, and no
crew waa visible. The strange
craft was boarded, and was
found to be the Resolute, one
of the five ahlps that had been
abandoned by Sir Edward and
his crew. In some way It had
escaped Its Icy bonds, and had
drifted aouthward more than a
thouaand miles In the 474 days
between Its abandonment and
Ita discovery. 8ome things on
board had been damaged by wa
ter, otherwise the ship was In
fsirly good condition. By a
resolution of congress $10,000
waa spent In putting the vessel
In flret-clasa shape, and It waa
then returned to the British
government with the compli
ments of the American people.

Musician's Devotion to His Art
In 1838 Robert Schumann wrote to
rinra Wleck: "I have riven several
hours hard study every day to Dacb
and Beethoven, and to my own work,
and conscientiously managed a large
correspondence. I am a young man of
twenty-eight, witb a very active mino,
and an artist, to boot; yet for eight
years I have not been out of Saxony,
and have been sitting still and saving
money, without a thought of spending
It on amusement"
Tied Boot Too Tight
Tying his boot too tight caused a
fanner, named Lyons, death at Ash
grove, near Mallow, County Cork, Ire
land, recently. The man was tying his
boot In the yard of his bouse prepara
tory to going to work when a vein
burst In hla leg, and although efforts
were made to atop the flow of blood,
death ensued in half an hour. '
Alcoholic Sentiment
The singing souse Is a nuisance, but
he has It all over the Jag who weeps
all over the bar when he realizes how
much he loves his Dear Old Mother.
