CAN'T DENY IT.
When the Facts are brought Home
to Us and by our Nelehbors too "
They are Marietta Facts.

A wholesome suspicion is one OF onr
characteristics as nation. In matters
worthy of investigation we want real,
tangible facts regarding it. The word
of those we know; the nearby evidence
obtainable, are generally what we
most desire. When we call on neigh
Dor, a man of busiues SIS at that, and say:
You have had some experience with
so-and-so; what do you think of it?'
and he answers: Just the thing; l
know because have tried it." 1t goes
a long way in helping our decision.
This is always the case with Doan's
Kidney Pills. Everybody who has us
ed them for any kidney complaint will
tell you: They are just the thing"
Why? because they do the work every
time and in all disordered conditions
of the kineys. The proof lies with your
neighbors. Many have been cured in
Marietta and are ready to tell you or
anyone enquirlng.
Mr. VIM. Green, of 406 Harmar street
Foreman of the Painting Department
at Kelly's Carriage Works, says: II
was troubled with my kidneys after j
started to work at painting, and ] had
to take medicines all the time to coun-
teract the effect of the chemicals used.
had backache, sharp. singing pains
in the loins, my back firing out easily
and eften had attacks of a very an
moving urinary difficulty that was
plainly caused by disordered kidneys.
l gave Doan's Kidney Pills trial some
time ago. l read of them in the pa
pers and got box at w. w. Styer's
drug store on Front street. | don't
think gave them fair trial for
worked in the paint room while TAX
ing them, yet in spite of that they gave
me prompt relief They produced no
bad results while using them, and
can from experience recommend them
as remedy which can be depended up
on if the kidneys are out of order"
Doans Kidney Pills are sold by all
dealers. Price so cents per box. Sent
by mail on receipt of price. Foster

1t happened on a day,
In a casual sort of way,
Somewhere round Manila Ray
There'd been u row.

But we had nothing you could swear
BY until now.
From this state of things unsta bic
We emerge and now we're a ble
To rely upon cable,
Which is how
Beyond the fact, the Spanish

We learn the Yanks don't famish
Wanting chow.
Midst the storm of shot and she'll
They were plugging it like-well,
The word, the truth to tell,
can't quite say
When seems, despite their zeal.
The Yanks began to feel
They would like their morning meal
The usual way.
And so midst leaden rain
Not cen male was slain)
They cut" to come again"
With stolid phlegm.

The field of slaughter red,
The while they breakfasted

Little details of fight,
