Lacking.
Everybody has it.
That tired feeling.
Don't know what it means.
Keeps you awake nights.
Destroys daily comfort.
Wearies the body. Worries the mind.
You would shake it off.
You would be healthful and strong.
So you can.
If you go at it right.
First learn what it means.
Some say It's bad blood.
Others say it's lazy liver.
They're all wrong.
Tired feeling means tired kidneys.
Just as lame back means lame kid
neys.
And backache means kidney ache.
How do we know it?
Because poan's Kidney Pills cure It.
And they are for the kidneys only.
How can we prove it?
Marshalltown people say so.
Here is a case in point.
Mr.. ]. T. Epson, of 800 North First
avenue, says: For some time felt
that required a remedy to regulate
the action of the kidneys and bladder
An advertisement about Doan's Kidney

THE JEWEL CAsKET.

Pearl and onyx make very effective
combination in chains.
Large and handsomely cut crystals
form some Of the newest ornaments for
mems fob chains.
There is rumor Of an oddly in ear
rings consisting in the wearing Of rings
that do not match.
Elaborate silver gilt frames for richly
beaded purses and chatelaine bags are
set with turquoise, amethyst, moonstone.
topaz, etc.
Styles in evening coiffures adapt them
selves to the use of tiaras and ornaments
for the top of the head, and these form
one Of the most striking and costly dis
plays of first class jewelers..
The royal purple and rich violet shades
Of the amethyst greet one on every side.
There is hardly an article susceptible Of
the employment of jewels to which this
beautiful stone is not applied.-Jewelers'

And as william Wright. of 100 Sixth
street, retired farmer, spoke these
terrible words to his son, his frame was.
quivering with excitement, his face
livid with rage and his gray hair and
beard dishelved he had the appearance
OF : maniac. One Of his five daugh-
tiers had run out and secured Police
Officer Follis and the old man delivered
himself OF his wrath as the policeman
stood in the doorway.
"Oh, father" said the young woman
entreatingly, as II to quiet him, but he
had lost control of his temper and she
told the officer that her father had come
home and threatened to kill the entire
family and was attempting to break a
chair over her brothers head when as
sistance had been summoned.
Mr.. Wright was taken to the police
station and locked up on a charge OF
disturbing the peace.
From the investigation which the po-
llice made, 1t appeared that Mr.. Wright
had just returned fom Akron, where he
had received 5000 for the settlement of
some property. Before going home he
had become intoxicated and quarrel
arose in the family over his accepting
5000 for a claim which they thought
should have brought $500. When the
son, William, Jr., returned and his
opinion was with his mother and sis
tiers, fight was precipitated, and the
old man flew into great passion. Al

age and never was in trouble before
