fence in the case was that Mr.. Fits was
not in a position tn give Prescott proper

numbering operations. as he vas also

was necessary for him Hrcscctt) to lose
and that Mr. Fats thus did not act fairly
by him IN the case.
In his report the referee reviews tho
case and then says.
evidence on both sides shows that Mr.
Fits sued Mr.. Bartlett and trusteed Mr.
Prescott with others. But 1t also shows
that Mr. Prescott became informed Of
that fact and was also told by MIR. Fits
that he. Mr.. Fits. would protect MIR
Prescott's interests in the trustee process
in preference to those of the other clien
and the other client so understood ant
that Mr.. Prescott still retained Mr.. Fits.
The referee then rectes the tcstimon,
which shows that the charges made by
Mr.. Fits are reasonable and says:
From the facts found above / nnt
that Mr.. Fits was not acting in n dua
capacity as claimed by the defendant an,
that Mr.. Fits did not because OF the sui
in which Mr.. Prescott was trustee will

The refereen then finds that Fits shal
recover s125 as requested by Mr.. Fits

that Mr.. Fits should recover the full

A Burlington Citizen Tells You
What It Il

It is not safe to experiment
when anything important is at
stake. The surest way is to profit
by the experience of friends and
neighbors. The public statement
of Burlington citizen given here
is sufficient proof to convince any
reader.
Stanislaus Mcunier, who lives at
GS Hyde ST., says: II owe a debt
of gratitude to Doan's Kidney
Pills and will tell you why. For
over a year l had a pain in the
small of my back. At first l
thought it was rheumatism but
later developments prove it was
only a temporary arrangement Of
the kidneys. The drawing, pulling
feeling which never gave me rest
succumbed to Doan's Kidney Pills
which l got at w. j. Henderson 8
drug store and took according to
directions. After the treatment
