Help the kidneys with their work.
The back will ache no more.
Lots of proof that Doan's Kidney

aching in the small Of my hack clung
to me for about two months, bother
ing most when I walked or worked
hard. I believed my kidneys to be the
cause OF the trouble. and began to use
kidney remedies. but the results were
unsatisfactory. Doan's Kidney Pills
finally came to my notice and l had
my husband procure box for me.
After using them short time and
finding decided benefit, continued
taking them until a complete cure re-
suited. am very glad TO recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills publicly SO that
kothers suffering In this way may learn
the most excellent kidney remedy OBJ
tainable."

more awaiting trial at the criminal
term of the district court at Silver
Cliff and during the time developed a
social Intimacy with Charles c. Cum
mings, who occupied an adjoining cell
in the jail on similar charge.
In a burst OF confidence one day
Finis told Cummings that he had rob-
bed a certain jewelry store and that q
portion of the booty was secreted un-
der the Santa Fe railroad bridge at
Rockvale. At the first opportunity
Cummings repeated the story he had
heard to Sheriff Esser, who at once
set about to test its truth. Cummings
was taken out OF Jail and accompanied
Mr. Esser to Rockvale where they
found the jewelry.sin the Identical spot
described by Finis. 1t is possible that
the Rockvale find will lead to start
ling results. Finis Ia believed to have
been at the head OF a gang Of burg
lars that robbed various stores In the
state, In fact, he told such a story to

Here are two things people who
write for newspapers should learn.
Always write on only one side Cf

Your name need not be used, names
are hardly ever used in connection
