Little York , Ind. , April L ( Special ) . Twenty-five years ago the Rev. C. H. Thompson left Indiana. For a time he preached in Arkansas , after wards entering on the regular mission ary work among the Choctaw Indians. For five years he lived and labored among the full bloods of the western prairies , until on April 5th , 1885 , hav ing lost his wife , he left the circuit on which he had preached so long , and commenced traveling missionary work among the Indians of the various tribes scattered In the west. This irregular work involved a great deal of travel over the prairies. The drinking of so much alkali water , brought on kidney troubles which , terminated in Diabetes. Finally , while laboring among the Creek Indians at Wagoner , Indian Territory , this noble man was strick en down completely. A Chicago spe cialist was summoned , and after a careful examination declared that there was not the slightest chance of his re covery. Besides the prescriptions of the doctors he tried many other medi cines , but all to no uvail. He says : "I had concluded that my days were drawing to a close , when I picked up an almanac telling of the cures of Dia betes by the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills. I sent for two boxes. I gained strength and spirits from the time I commenced to use them , and so I sent for more. I am now completely cured , and have not the slightest symptom of my old trouble. "I am 68 years of age. I tell every body of the wonders Dodd's Kidney Pills have done for me. I can certainly endorse them heartily , and vouch that they are all that Is claimed for them. They have certainly been a God-send- to me. " Dodd's Kidney Pills are the only , Remedy that has ever cured Bright's Disease , Diabetes or Dropsy and they never fail. Restricted to Cannon. As finally passed , the new law in South Carolina against the - pistol-car rying habit , makes it unlawful for any person , except a peace officer , to carry , deadly weapon less than twenty inches in length or four pounds in weight ( All diseased conditions of the blood and skin are benefited by the well known remedy , Garfield Tea ; it puri fies the blood and clears the com plexion.
