Miss Susan Peihtel, Main St.,
McConnollbburg, s.iys: "I was in
poor health for some time and I
btlieve tbat weak kidnevs caused
the trouble. I suffered greatly
from severe pains in my back
which often darted into my head
I often became dizzy and had
chilli. I was losing strength
daily and felt poorly in every way.
Doau's K'ltney IMIs, procured at
Trout's drug store, brought me
quick relief." (Statemeut given
November 5, 1907)
Over Six Years Later, Miss
Peightel said; "Whenever I need
a backache or kidney medicine, I
use Doan's Kidney Pals. They
relieve me."

Sympathy for Dogs.
Statewide sympathy amongdog
lovers is being aroused for dogs
that, by way of chance may be in
a position to become victims of
vivisectionists. Vivisection is the
cutting into a living animal for
scientific investigation. An un
usual barbarous case was recent
ly brought to light by the Amer
ican Anti-Vivisection Society.
Two dog3 were used for the pur
pose of grafting bones. A cer
tain portion of the body of ode
dog was removed and another
dog tied to it.
The corresponding portion of
the second dog was grafted by
ligatures and pressuie; both am
uals were held in position to see
if one portion would grow on the
other animal. One of the victims
died at the fifth day. The wind
pipe of one of the dogs was tied
with a cord. The string was
placed around the trachea during
lifetime, the object being to ob
serve the effect of gradual stran
gulation on the respiration, heart
and nervous system. Is it any
wonder that the protest against
vivisection is growing stronger
and stronger?
Officials of the American Anti
Vmsectior. Society declare that
they do not believe people gener
ally are aware of the cruelties
practiced upon animals in the
name of scieuce, and investiga
tions are being conducted in or
der to bring the' facts to the at
tention of the public.

One in Ten.
On every tenth farm in Penn
sylvania there is an automobile.
Farmer.3 a3 a class have more
pleasure cars than any other so
cial or economic division of indi
vidual in the commonwealth.
For the year just closed 14.1
per cent, of the cars registered
in the State were in the hand3 of
farmers. Growing popularity and
usefulness is given as the cause
for the big increaee in one year.
In the richer agricultural coun
ties the number of cars owned is
very large.
In ten of the sixty-seven coun
ties between fifteen and eighteen
per cent, of the farmers drive
their own cars, while in almost
half, more than ten percent, own
cars. Several counties report
gains of 150 to 200 per cent, in
the number of cars on the farm,
while gains of 100 per cent, are
common.

ST. WILLIBROD.
Luxembourg, whatever her claims
to the protection of (Ireat Britain,
possesses one strange association with
Kn.land that dates back for 13 cen
turies. It is connected with a cult
of St. Willihrod, the variously spelt
Saxon saint who helped to convert
the Germans to Christianity. Every
Whit Tuesday the memory of the
English saint is honored at Luxem
bourg by a procession and religious
dance which rank among the most
curious survivals of medieval peas
