Concord, N. c., proprietor of hardware
and harness store, Justice Of the Peace,
and one of the best known residents Of
that city, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills
proved very efficient remedy in my

Store and used them for disordered
kidneys and backache from which had

all up and have not had an ache in my
back since taking the last dose. My
back is much stronger and my health
generally is improved a great deal. /
am glad to make a public endorsement
of the Pills trusting that it may be
the means of relieving some other

TOO TRUsTFUL.
Described His Lost spectacles Toe
Accurately for the Reward
offered.

A great many stories are told of the late
Thomas Bracket Reed, many of which,
doubtless, are clever inventions, but the fol.
lowing, related by friend of the dea6
statesman, sounds enough like him to be
true, says Youths Companion.
The friend, while travelling In sleeping
car, had been careless enough to leave his
gold-framed spectacles lying for few mo-
ments on shelf in the Mushroom, and
when he went to look for them they were
gone. He Immediately put up written no,
dce in two or three places, describing the
spectacles and offering reward of one dol
lar for their recovery, but to no purpose.
He never saw them again.
He related the incident one day to Mr..
Reed.
When you described the spectacles and
offered dollar to the finder" asked thelat.
ter, in his accustomed drawl, "were yor
careful to say. they were gold?"
Certainly"
well, that's the reason you didn't gel
them," reioined Mr.. Reed. "The millen.

Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women
are SO because they are suffering from
some form of female disease. BY far
the greatest number of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is so common, so prevalent,
that they accept itas almost inevitable.
The greatest obstacle in the way Of re-
covery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine
cases out of one hundred are nothing
but catarrh.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated.

Finished Saving Yesterday.

Yesterday forenoon the last piece OF
timber was sawed at Hopkins mill, two
miles west Of Reynoldsville, and the
mill was shut down for all time, which
means the loss of a good industry for
Reynoldsville. For a number OF years
10 to 100 men were employed on this
mill at good wages and the money was
mostly spent in Reynoldsville. There
are over three million feet Of lumber in
the yards to be shipped away, which
will give employment to number OF men
until about the first Of next year and
then work at Hopkins will cease SO far
as the lumber business is concerned.
The shutting down Of Hopkins mill
does not only mean financial loss to
this town but 1t also means the loss OF
number Of excellent citizens, as Hop
kins is suburb Of Reynoldsville.

fine store In Reynoldsville and large

of the success these deserving young
men have made in their business career.
