NEIGHBORLY ADVICE.

Freely Given by Princeton Citizen.
When one has suffered tortures from
bad back and found out how the
aches and pains can be removed, ad-
vice is of untold value to friends and
neighbors, particularly when they
know the statements absolutely COR
rect. The following neighborly advice
comes from a Princeton resident.
Mrs. J. E. Bates, Princeton, MINI.
says: 81 have been a victim of kid
ney complaint for number of years.
My back was very weak and I was
unable to bend or stoop over without
suffering sharp pains which frequently
extended into the top of my head.
There we're constant dizzy spells and
at times I was nervous and unstrung.
My kidney seer etions we're very pro-
fuse and added to all these symptoms
of kidney complaint was inflammatory
rheumatism which kept me in a con-
slant state of misery. My neighbors
advised me to give Doan's Kidney
Pills trial and I did so, procuring a
box at the Home Drug store. Doan's
Kidney Pills gave me great relief and
helped me to such an extent that I feel
that can recommend them to others
suffering from similar complaints. :"

The election campaign now being

Europeans, more particularly for
England. The trade exchange be-

Britain represents no less than one
fifth of the total commerce of the world
and in the republic country at least
trade interests are regarded as
supreme. Throughout the states there
seems general impression that Mr..

Too Much For "Uncle Joe"

By the side of a certain Illinois
suburban railway stands fertilizer
factory, which gives out a particular
ly offensive smell. A lady who fire.
quently has occasion to travel on this
line, always carries with her a bottle
OF lavender smelling salts. One
morning Speaker Cannon took the seat
beside her. AS the train neared the
factory the lady opened her bottle of
salts. Soon the car was filled with the
horrible odor of the fertilizer. The
speaker stood it as long as he could,
then addressing himself to the lady,
whom he saw holding the bottle to her
nose, he said: MADAME, would you
mind putting the cork in that bottle?"
Success,
