Doing Their Duty.
Scores of Rock Island Readers Are
Learning the Duty of the Kidneys.

To filter the blood is the kidneys

When they fail to do this the kidneys
are sick.
Backache and many kidneys ills fol-
low.
Urinary trouble, diabetes.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure them all.
Mrs. ]. F. Sanberg, 14iG Eleventh
avenue. Moline, Ills, says: Several
years ago my husband was troubled
with severe backaches and other symp-
toms of kidney trouble. The pains
were sometimes so severe as to force
me TO stop work and come home. and
they gradually grew worse. None OF
the remedies he took seemed to do
him any good and we were becoming
alarmed when he learned of Doan S
Kidney Pills. He procured box and
found them to be as represented. At
ter using them a short time the pains
left him entirely and he befame per-
fectely well. He made ysatement
at that time recommending Do MS Kid
lney Pills, and he has had no return
of the trouble since. However we
always keep a box of Doan's Kidney
Pills in the house and it is a pleasure
for us to recommend them to any one
suffering from kidney complaint of any
FORM.

Will combat all attempts of the liquor
interests to force resolutions favorable
TO their side of the question through
the convention.
At the meeting of the democratic
national committee which takes place
in Denver May there will be an out
line made of the party policy as far
as the convention in July is concerned.
The national committee will have the
work of selecting the temporary chair
man in hand and as this Office selects
the various committees his personal
opinions will have a great deal TO do
in deciding what the resolutions com
mittee will favor.
1t is believed by the temperance
people that an effort is being made by
the liquor interests to influence the
democratic national convention to

equally certain that the delegates. es-
