NARRAGANsETT ALE AND LAGER
High Quality and Increased Sales Go

The Narragausett Brewing company of Providence. which Is the largest
 lager beer brewing company in New England, declares that the year 1907 shows a sale of it's products greater than has ever before been accomplish ed The German appellation of beer
 liquid bread" this company claims Is especially warranted by such products as Narragansett select stock lager and banquet ale.
 Only the best ingredients obtain able are used in Narragansett prod
 ucts Every process from mash tub
 to lleg or bottle. is conducted accord
 ing to the most approved methods of
 modern science The malt Is perfect ly fermented-th brew fully matured
 before it is placed on the market The brewing of Narragansett prod
 ucts is unusually protracted, taking in | all four or five months to complete.
 The hops used in Narragaosett beer and ale are the choicest Bavarian and Bohemian varieties, selected especial ly for their suitability as an ingredient of the Narragansett products. The
 water of which 30.000 barrels are
 used daily. Is pumped directly from ! the rock. depth of 400 to 1,200 feet, and is daily tested and filtered to in- sure absolute purity. The present high price of barley and the conse- quent rise in the cost of malt. has not
 affected the quality of Narragansett beer and ale.

NJ. p. Sheppard, living on Maple

Il actually believe that Doan's Kid
ney Pills are worth their weight in
gold. Eight years ago | strained my
back while carrying some heavy lum-
ber. and as result was laid up for
few days. From that time on | fre-
quently had pains in my back, and
by attacks suffered severely. When
ever | would arise from a chair, a
sharp catch or twinge would catch
me and it would be often impossible
for me TO straighten. The strain
brought on the muscles OF my lOins
while working aggravated my suffer
ing, and | was in misery, when some
one told me of Doan's Kidney Pills
