STRAIN TOO GREAT.
Hundreds of Montgomery City
Readers Find Daily Toll
a Burden.

S. w. Hawkins, farmer, R. F.
D. Calwood, Mo-, says: "For a
year or 30 my back gave me
trouble and though 1 had no blad-
der difficulty 1 knew the trouble
was due to inaction of the kidneys.
If l did any hard work.. my back
would pain me intensely. I got
prescriptions for it but obtained
no positive relief until 1 procured
Doan's Kidney Pills and began
using them. The lameness and
stiffness has left my loins, l can
sleep better and that disagreeable
feeling in my head has disap-
peared. AS far as my experience
goes in using Doan's Kidney
Pills, I can heartily recommend
them.

New Florence Leader.

The Misses Jeffcrs are entertain
ing this week the Misses Wright
of Warrenton and Mr.. Harry Del
man of Yankton, South Dakota.
The party enjoyed dinner under
the old settlers wigwam Tuesday
and the afternoon at = Mineola
springs.
Thursday j.. T. Nunnelly bought
of Mrs. j. F. Webb, her farm of
45 acres adjoining the south edge
of town for $1,000. 90 ::or SS2.25 per
acre, the highest price land ever
sold for in this community per
acre. Mr.. Nunnelly gets a lovely
home finely situated. Possession
will be given this fall. Probably
Mrs. Webb and Mrs. Phillips will
move to Wellsville but we Ehope
not.
New Florence set her dates for
the observation-disclosures for Sept.
20-21-22, in Difference to Jones'
burg holding hers ons thel week
following. Now if it is a fact that
Jonesburg announced these dates
at the close of her street fair last
fall, then New Florence gracefully
withdraws. W. are too close
neighbors and too good friends for
any conflict in dates. This being
so it may force New Florence to
hold her celebration the middle of
October.
Some advertisingImen here from
st. Louis on Old Settlers day
placed literature in all the buggies
and wagons on the grounds. In
doing SO they counted the vehicles
and each went a different way, one
counted 5000, the other 1910 only
a difference of fifty. Four is a
safe average for each vehic Gle
many had 8 and 10, none less than
two. This is about the best esti-
mate one can get on the crowd the
number on the trains and town
people would exceed 1000 making
the crowd somewhere around
1000.
Some years ago gambling de-
vices and games of chance were
allowed on the Old Settlers grounds
Then people were robbed, pockets
were picked and often farm houses
were entered. It's a fact beyond
denial that with these alluring
games barred the other crimes
have also gone. The offer of 5000
for a wheel of fortune last Satur-
day, show how desperate these
fellows are to get back in and it
also shows the class that go with
them. The Old Settlers is free of
all immoral things and the people
should rejoice that gambling and
games of chance are gone. It's
not so much the game as that
which turks behind.
