IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS!
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your

just where the danger lies. You must
cure these troubles or they lead to dia
betes or Brights disease. The best rem
edy to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t
cures all ills which are caused by weak
or diseased kidneys.
Mrs. Annie Kohlhoff, of $50 Cherry ST.,
GAINESVILLE, Wis, says: "Since using
Doan's Kidney Pills some years ago for

ANOTHER BLOW
TO CIGARETTES
Wisconsin House Passes Bill to Bar
the Smoking of Them in
Public Places.

Milwaukee, May 13.-There are
stormy times ahead for cigarette
smokers. Two years ago the legis!a-
ture though it had put the markings"
and cigarettes themselves out OF the
reach of smokers. 1t is found, how
ever, that this legislation had little eff
feet in diminishing the consumption of
cigarettes. Its only effect was to
make it slightly more difficult to get
them.
Early in the session the legislature
passed a bill prohibiting children from
smoking cigarettes in public places.
Now the assembly has advanced a bill
to passage which prohibits the smok-
ing Of cigarettes in public places by
anyone. Further, no cigarettes Or
markings" can be exposed to tempt
the eye OF the smoker. Any infraction
of the law will bring down on the head
of the offender fine of not to exceed
$40 or Imprisonment not to exceed
ten days in the county jail.
