Heat-Producing Flowers. The saldanella or snowbell of the Alps Is a dainty little plant about three Inches high, bearing two pendentfringed white or violet bells on each flower stalk. They may be often found with the snow still firmly frozen round the stem, and the question naturally arises how did the blossoms, so much larger In circumference, make thelp way through? Botanists tell us that the plant forms Its flower buds under the snow, and in the process of breathing evolves so much heat that the encircling snow is melted and trickles down the stalk, round which It frequently freezes again. Thus gradually a dome-shaped cavity is formed round the blossoms, and the process is continued till In many cases they succeed In reaching the surface. A modified form of the same heatproducing power may be noticed In the fox-glove. On a comparatively cool day, when little wind Is stirring, a thermometer inserted in the belldike flowers of a plant growing In a shady place will frequently register a temperature one or two degrees higher than that of the surrounding air, and even more startling results are obtained from plants In which a number of small flowers are congregated together within an outer sheath or spathe, as In the arums. The Test of Time. Mrs. Clara J. Sherbourne, Professional Nurse of 257 Cumberland Street, Portland, Maine, says: “I heartily wish those who suffer from some disturbed action of the kidneys would try Doan's Kidney Pills. They would, like me, be more than surprised. My back annoyed me for years. Physicians who diagnosed my case said it arose from my kidneys. When the grip was epidemic, I was worn out with constant nursing, and when I contracted It myself It left me In a very serious condition. I could not straighten nor do the most trivial act without being In torture. Tbe kidneys were too active or the secretions were too copious, and I knew what was wrong, but how to right It was a mystery. It seems odd for a professional nurse, who has had a great deal of experience with medicines, to rend advertisements about Doan's Kidney Pills in the newspapers, and It may appear more singular for me to go to H. H. Hay & Son's drug store for a box. But I did, however: and bad anybody told me before that It was possible to get relief as quickly as I did I would have been loth to believe It. You can 6end any one who wishes more minute particulars about my case to me, and I will be only too glad to tell them personally. As long.as I live 1 will be a firm advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills.” Cure Confirmed Five Yean Later. ‘‘Lapse of time has strengthened my good opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills, first expressed In the spring of 181X5. I said then that had anybody told me that It was possible to get relief as quickly as I did I would- have been loth to believe it. Years have passed and my continued freedom from kidney complaint has strengthened my opinion of Doan’s Kidney Pills and given me ■ much higher appreciation of their merits.” A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mrs. Sherbourne will be mailed on application to any part of the United States.
