WHY 1T SUCCEEDS.
Because It's For One Thing Only, and
Topeka is Learning This.

Nothing can be good for everything
Doing one thing well brings success.
Doan's Kidney Pills do one thing only
They're for sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kidney Ill.
Here is Topeka evidence to prove 1t:
Mr.. j. A. Brown, of SOL Norris ave-,
EMPLOYED at the Star Grocery store,
says: My first attack of kidney com
plant was felt across the small OF my
back. / paid little attention to the dull
aching pains at first, but they kept get
ting worse, bothering me mostly IN the
morning. When working about the barn
a sudden twinge caught me across my ny
loins and almost threw me TO the
ground The pain was so acute that l
could hardly get to the house. Seeing
Doan's Kidney Pills highly recon-
mended L procured a box at Rowley q
Shows drug store. Before finishing IL
the pain in my back disappeared and
there has been no recurrence

While Police Were Looking For Him
His Brother Saws.

Omaha, Neb.. Oct. 19.-John w.
Grove, who conducts a saloon in Coun-
ell Bluffs, said today that his brother,
Pat Grove, would not surrender until

brother.
Pat has been all over the world
said John, land while the Omaha Pc
lice were looking for him, saw him in
Omaha.
pat has been in Council Bluffs with

New York, Oct. 19.-The developments
in connection with Northern Pacific have
resulted in a more positive bullish feeling
than has existed for some time and the
more favorable reports in connection with
the Copper situation and especially with
Amalgamated Copper, can not fail to have
good influence on speculative sentiment
Prices have already had a very sGbstan-
tial rise, but there is a scarcity OF float
ing stock, and while we ADVISE taxing
profits on bulges we discourage any oper-
atoms on the short side of the market
With a settlement of the Morgan-H arri-
man controversy, disturbing factor will
be removed and with the money market
gradually working into better position,
bull market more favorable than at
any time since last May. 1t is still a
traders market, but we advise the pur-
chase of stocks on declines in anticipation
of a considerable upward movement dur
ing the next sixty days, the beginning of
which we look for before the end of Octo-
Der. Good profits will be made on the long
side of St. Paul Union Pacific, Southern
Pacific Pennsylvania. .Vanderbilts and
Erie and Reading. Insiders are buying
Minneapolis and St. Louis and the pool in
Iowa Central will endeavor to put that
stock up. Buy Anal gamated Copper on
a scale down and hold B. r. T. and SteeIs
for higher prices. London is closed to-
day. j. ARTHUR JOSEPH.

Development of the Beds Adjoining
Marysville to Be Commenced.

Marysville, Sept 2S.-Genera1 mana
ger of the st. Joseph & Grand Island
road, Raymond Du Puy. is interesting
himself with other citizens of Marys-
vile looking to the early development
of the gypsum beds adjoining this
place. He believes there are as large
and fine deposits of gypsum here as
can be found anywhere. Some surveys
are being made on the Peter Shumach-
er, ST., lands near town, and it seems to
be only a question of short time be-
fore side tracks will be built to COM
mence the development of the gypsum
deposits which are said to exist here
Mr. Du Puy is confident the largest
beds of gypsum yet found in Kansas
will be discovered around Marysvilles
and in his effort to prospect for the de-
posits he will have the hearty co-opera-
ton Of a number of the capitalists of
MarysVilla.
