FAIR EXCHANGE.
A New Back For an Old
One. How it is Done
in Wilmington.

The back aches at times with a
dull, undesirable feeling, making
you weary and restless; shooting
pain shoots across the region Of the
kidneys, and again the loins are so
lame that to stoop Is agony. No use
to rub or to apply a plaster to the
back in this condition. You cannot
reach the cause. Exchange the bad
back for new and a stronger one.
Follow the example Of this Whining
ton citizen:
Mr.. Thomas Taylor, No 12l Mar
ket street, says:--"With the excep-
ton of trouble due to disordered KID
neys ! have always enjoyed the best
of health and during the "a yeaW l
have lived l have used very little
medicine of any kind. The main
symptoms Of my kidney complaint
was slight difficulty with the kid
ney secretions. Thinking that if
Doan's Kidney Pills performed half
what they promised, they might help
me: | procured box across the street
at Danforths drug store. They did
me good. | find nothing equal to
them in streng thening ana toning up

I ENrERrRls1NG thieves got away
yesterday with several god bricks
from the Selby Smelling Works at
Vallejo, CAL, weighing 200 pounds
and worth S2o0,OO0. The robbers
made a slick job of 1t. They had
been working on the job for two or
three months, having dug tunnel
through the loose sand from the
shore of San Francisco Bay to the
smelling house, beginning with
shaft three feet deep. They work
ed up under the vault and striking
upwards, bored a hole in the strong
room floor. While the robbery was
taking place, one OF tie workmer
reported that he heard noise in
the strong room, but no lnvestiga-
ton was made. 1t is one OF the
boldest robber es Tor many years
in smelling works. 10 all proba-
bllity the thieves will get away
with their booty, and all you VIII
