BLOCKADED.
Every Household in Wenatchee
Should Know How 70 Resist 1t.

The back aches because the kid
neys are blockaded.
Help the kidneys with their work.
The back will ache no more.
Lots of proof that Doan's Kidney
Pills do this.
Archibald Moore, living at 21O1
Grand avenue, East Everett, Wash ,
says: "The good results l received
from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills
in 1902 have proven to me by the
lasting nature of the cure that this
remedy is one worthy of entire con-
fidence. My complaint was caused
by a severe cold which settled on my
kidneys, causing a dull aching
through my back, which compelled
me to lay on from work for several
days. At last it was my good for
tune to hear about Doan's Kidney
Pills and / procured a box. In a
short time every symptom of my
trouble was eradicated and I feel
better in every way. Any person
troubled with backache or other
symptoms Of kidney complaint will
make no mistake in giving Doan' 3
Kidney Pills q trial."

The Good Citizen.

From Clovis IN. NJ Post.
Our idea of a good clulzen, and we
are glad there are many in Clovis, Is
one always ready to give, according
to his means, to community enter
prises. He takes stock in them all,
and doesn't lose his faith if an occa-
sional venture proves bad He Is not
afraid to buy real estate and to pay
what it is worth. He talks VI his
town at home and abroad; thinks it
is the h%ealthiest place on earth, be-
lieving it to be destined to be the
biggest city in its section, n wants
to be buried here when he dies He
is worth a whole regiment of the
lukewarm kind. Clovis a a bunch
of citizens who are live, active and
eenterprising. Come to a town where
life is worth living, wher fortune
knocks at every mans door and
where good health is an unquestiona-
BILE certainty.
