DRAGGED DOWN BY DESPAIR
Hundreds OF Uuners In the Sam
Plight.

Mrs. John H. Cole. OF Sc Arlington
street, South birmingham. Mass, was
for years a martyr to kidney trouble,
but at last found a cure in Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills. She writes:
81 suffered greatly with periodical
headache, terrible bearing-down pains
and a whole train of minor symptoms.
My back was always weak and the
kidneys terribly disordered. I could
not rest at night and in the morning
would get up feeling i'll, tired, and dis
couraged, and without the least ambi-
ton to go about my household duties.
If I sat down I felt as though I never
wanted to get up again; I grew thin
and haggard and developed deep cir
cles beneath my eyes. My appetite
grew less and less as the days went by
until at last I did not eat enough to
keep child alive.
During all this time I was Doctor
ing and dosing myself with first one
remedy and then another until my
stomach fairly rebelled. I called in a
doctor but soon saw that he did not
understand my case. Well, you may
believe I was in despair for I had come
to that state where I did not care what
happened, when a friend told me what
a fine remedy and cure for kidney dis
ease Doan's Backache Kidney Pills
were. I bought a box and before I had
taken all of it I felt much better, my
back felt stronger and I rested much
easier at night and was not troubled
with Nightmares and fits of wakeful-
ness as formerly. After that first box
was gone I bought another and still
another, each one helping me and
making me stronger and better, until
I had taken twelve boxes. BY that time
not a vestige of my old trouble re-
manned and it is the greatest pleasure
to my life to say that Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills saved me from an early
breakdown"
Doans Backache Kidney Pills are
for sale by all dealers. Price so cents
per box, six boxes for $3.50, or mailed
on receipt of price by the HOLSTER
Drug Co., Ltd, Honolulu, wholesale
agents for the Hawaiian Islands.

OLD COMMANDER
Of TWENTIETH
Colonel ]. B. R0dman Passes
Through in Sheridan for
the Coast.

Colonel J. B. Rodman, U. S. A, re-
tired, who has been visiting his son
in Manila, was a visitor in Honolulu
Yesterday on his way home in the
Sheridan. He has made the trip to the
Philippines three times this being the
first time that the trip was made for
pleasure.
The Philippines, in the mind of Col.
Rodman, is not the gold brick many
people try to make out.
Properly handled, the Colonel says,
a financial, strategic, and political point
of view.
Colonel Rodman retired in 1903 after
forty years service, thirty-fve of which
were with the goth Infantry. He was
entertained by some of the officers of
that command now stationed here yes
terday and was greatly pleased by his
visit in the city.
He was graduated from West Point
in 1868 was assigned a second lieuten-
ant in the Goth Infantry; served in
every grade as a commissioned officer
in that regiment until he reached his
colonelcy.
On two occasion in his life Colonel
Rodman came very near being killed
The first time was when he was lead,
ing his battalion in Cuba. He was
shot in the neck and was given up for
dead, the ball having grazed his jugular
vein. His rugged constitution, how
ever, stood by him although, while over
six feet tall and straight as reed, he
never fully recovered his former phys
ique. During the earthquake at San
Francisco Colonel Rodman was occupy
ing top room in the Occidental Hotel, |
where he made his home for number
Of years, and while the ceiling fell on
top of him and pillars and beams fell |
al about him, he reached terra firma |
1nharmed.
Colonel Rodman has several relatives |
n the Army and Navy and is well |
Known throughout both services.
