Adds His Evidence
STORY is THE SAME AS FROM
OTHER SOURCES.
Lots OF Money Spent but no Returns
Have Been Received.

The people in Pennsylvania willingly
id their evidence to that which has al
ready been given in favor of Morrow s
KId-ne-oids, the best remedy that has
ever been sold in this state for backache,
kidney and urinary disorders, sleepless-
ness and nervousness. Our druggists re-
port wonderful cures and state that Kid
ne-oids are daily increasing i'll the opin-
ion of our people. Kid-ne-oids act di-
rectly upon the kidneys and nerves and
restore them to their natural condition.
Good kidneys make good blood, good
blood makes strong nerves, Kid-ne-oids
make good kidneys and strong nerves.
MI John Beightol, I25 Du Bois street,
Du Bois. IA, savs:-For years l was
troubled with kidney disorders, and dur
ing this time tried different kinds of kid
ney remedies, but meyer found anything
that gave me relief like Morrow's KID
ne-oids. Before taking Kid-ne-oids I
suffered with a dull heavy pain in the
small Of my back which would be fire.
uuented BY a sharp shooting pain Just over
the kidney extending up the spine to
the shoulders, also urinary disturbances
of an annoying nature Since taking
Kid-ne-oids they have relieved me of
these troubles and am feeling better in
every respect. l will continue to tax
kid-ne-oids.'

REPEAL OF TIE BANK TAX.
Movement started by the Larses In
sfitutiOns of the COuntFy.

Members of the Senate Finance Com
mittee are being deiuged with letters from
banks and bankers urging the amend
ment of the War Tax Reduction bill, so
as to repeal the special tax on capital and
surplus of banks
This movement was started ty the lar
ger banks, which are trying to have the
tax en- their capital. which they have to
pay, repealed. and to have the tax on
bank checks, which their depositors pay,
continued. The small country banks, as
rule, are opposed to the continuance Of
the tax On checks. which, il is said, has
operated to drive from the banks many
small accounts. The larger banks. on the
other hand, do not care for the small ac-
counts and favor the tax On checks for
the reason that IL aiscouTages the drawing
OF many small checks and reduces the
amount OF bookkeeping that must be done.
The large banks, however, appear to
have succeeded in drawing many Of the
smaller country banks into the movement
for the repeal OF the tax on banks CAPT
tai, without letting them know that If the
Senate adopted the repeal of the tax on
checks. as Il passed the House. the former
tax would he continued
