Mr.. ]. II. WEIGH, working on a farm
near Buffalo, N. D., says: when Iiy-
ing at JOB Eighth street south, Fargo,
I procured Doan's Kidney Pills at Will
sers Pharmacy in the spring of 1898.
For a long time I had not only been
annoyed but actually suffered with
pains in my back. Compelled to work
at the time and aggravated BY a cold
contracted during the last attack, I
grew SO stiff and lame toward the close
OF the day that / could scarcely walk.
Collins advised me to use Doan's
Kidney Pills--emphasizing the fact
that he knewthey would help me and
noting his own experience as a good
authority | followed his advice and my
personal experience only reiterates
what I have heard a good many more
express in and around Fargo. Doan's
Kidney Pills r up to their represen-
tations and can be depended upon to
backache, lumbago or any trouble
arising from disordered kidneys"

man had wanted to split his vote, and

would he have done so? The Herald's
logic is poor. The legislative fight in
Fargo was not between men, but be-

OF his critics in a way that does him
proud when he says:
The success Of Mckinley and

North Dakota. and 50 long as the
great parties of the nation hold to the
principles Of government that they
