WHY IT SUCCEEDS.

Because It's for One Thing Only,
and Sistersville is Learning This.
Nothing can be good for every
thing.
!, Doing one thing well brings sue
cess.
Doan's Kidney Pills do one
thing only.
They re for sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kid
ney i'll.
Here is evidence to prove it.
E. W. Lohn, barber, of 232 JEFF
ferson avenue, Moundsville, says:
There are so many preparations
on the market, all guaranteed as
specifics for certain ailments
which affiict mankind, that to Gull
a genuine from the useless is al
most impossible. So many people
have been gulled by fattering
advertisements that really think
when a man knows remedy can
be depended upon he should make
that fact known so that others
may profit by his experience and
follow his good advice. I unhes-
itatingly say that Doan's Kidney
Pills for sale at a drug store can
be depended upon to do the work
they claim. You are at liberty to
send anyone to me for minuter
particulars of my experience with
the remedy and knowledge about
it which | have gathered from
observation"

Gas


How many people, when buy
ing gas engines stop to consider
complications There are few.
If they would only investigate
the different makes before decid-
ing on the purchase there would
be fewer repair shops over the
land. A spring here and a gear
there, and loaded down with a lot
Of inventions, most people say,
"That must be a good engine. 1"
Well, they buy it. In a little
while, to keep it going, they COM
mence to tinker, and the more
time and money spent the more
she gets out of whack. Then
they realize that it takes an ex-
pert to do anything with it. Now
if they had only bought a simple
engine-one that would not run
because it did not have q lot Of
fixtures-they could have avoided
the expense and delay.
Our advice to you is not to
overlook the "Stoner" when you
are thinking Of buying an engine,
as we can prove to you that it il
the simplest engine built, and we
feel satisfied that it will give You
but very little trouble. Repair
shops all hate the "Stoner," as it
gives them but little work.
