1t Well.
There is a way open to convince
the greatest skeptic. Scores of WaXa-
hachie people have made it possible.
The public statement of their exper-
fence is proof the like of which has
never been produced before in Wax
ahachie. Read this case of it given
by a citizen:
w. A. Bratton, farmer, formerly
of Waxahachie, Texas, says: THE
case which led me to publicly en-
dorse Doan's Kidney Pills over three
years ago was one of kidney weak
ness. A member of my family had
very weak kidneys and was unable
to control the passages of the secre-
tons which were scanty, highly col
ored and filled with sediment. The
doctors medicines failed to give any
relief and we had almost given up
hopes of ever being able to cure the
complaint when Doan's Kidney Pills
were brought to our attention. We
procured supply at B. w. Fearis'
drug store and three boxes made a
complete cure. Only on one occasion
since then has there been any return
of the trouble. At that time the con-
traction of a cold was the cause but
| am pleased to say that one box of
Doan's Kidney Pills removed the at
tack. l am pleased to re-endorse

BROWN |NAUGURATt Ed GOVERNOR
His Election Over Smith Was Victory
for the Conservative Element.

Atlanta, Ca, June 26.-Hoke
Smith is ex-governor of Georgia and
Little Joe" Brown, victor in the
most bitterly contested battle ever
waged between the Smiths and
Browns, rules in his stead. The pass
ing of the radical Hoke and the in
duction into office of the. conserva-
tive s"Little Joe" was Accomplished
today with true democratic simplici-
ty, and with manifestations of hear
ty good will for both men on the
part of the great assemblage OF
Georgians gathered to witness the
momentous event.
All the ceremonies connected with
the Inauguration took place in the
house of representatives, in accord
ance with time-honored custom and

ernor Browns voice VS. too weak to
| permit of his addressing a large out
| lay of people who came to town to
! the inaugural ceremonies.

the campaign for the gubernatorial
nomination has died out, and the
charge that Brown was friend OF
/ the railroads, the corporations and
the distillers and intent on over
throwing the prohibition law, is nc

| through the state since his election
he has made himself profoundly pop
ular by his unaffected simplicity and
democracy, and many of the Smith
iadherents who denounced him as g
rascal during the campaign were II
the crowd that gave lusty cheers il
his honor today.
Governor Brown is a resident OF
Marietta, Ga, where he has lived fol-
decades, and is popularity supposed
to be wealthy. His election was look
ed upon as a victory for the conser
vative element and as an indication
that the people had tired of the radi
cal activities of Hoke Smith.
During his term of office Cover
jnor Brown will have two residences
THE official one in Atlanta and the
family home in Marietta, Where hi
and his wife and children may spenC
Saturdays and Sundays and what
ever brief vacations he may be able
to take, in domestic simplicity, ava!
from the cares and responsibilities
of office. His stays at his old hom'
will be about the only recreation o
absences from Atlanta Mr., Brow
will allow himself during his tern

Never neglect your kidneys.

Never neglect your kidneys.
If you have pain in the back, urinary
disorders, dizziness and nervousness,
it s time to act and no time to expert
ment. These are all symptoms of kid

remedy which is known to cure the
kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills is the remedy to
use. No need to experiment. 1t has
cured many stubborn cases.

David Price, of Corydon, Iowa, says:
81 am glad to confirm everything [ said
in the public statement I gave in 1902
in favor of Doan's Backache Kidney
Pills, as I feel that I owe my life to
this remedy. I suffered from backaches
and at times I could hardly walk on
account of the pain in my loins. My
kidneys were also much disordered and
the secretions passed irregularly. I
finally became so bad off that / could
not turn in bed without assistance. Ny
head aehed intensely and my health
was all run down. The doctors pre-
scriptions and various remedies I took
did not give me relief, but with Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills it was different.
Soon after I commenced their use my
health improved and before long was
rid of all symptoms of kidney trouble.
I am always praising Doan s Baekache

for the year ending August, 1900
Mr. Walker had delightful person
atty; was highly esteemed by the diff
ferent members of our business CON-
munity and was strong influence for
good among the young men of the Is
lands.
In April of this year, Mr.. Henry R.

was closely identified with the business

passed away, leaving host of friends
to mourn the loss of his kindly genial

Chamber of Commerce Building.
One of the most important undertake
ings of the past year was the appoint
ment by the Board of Trustees of a
special committee to devise ways and
means for securing Il permanent home
for the Chamber and thus provide space
for housing the splendid Hawaii Exhibit
now being displayed at the Alaska
Yukon-Pacifc Exposition. Plans for a
three, also for four-story building of
modern construction have been pre-
pared; an option on one of the best
building lots in the city secured and
the work of raising the necessary funds
is meeting with satisfactory progress.
It is confidently expected that the
Chamber will be in its new home shortly
after the first of the year.
The past year has been one of great
activity in the Honolulu Chamber of
Commerce, and forecast of the coming
year shows opportunities for much good
work beneficial to the commercial in
terests and to the advancement of the
welfare of this Territory.
The work of the Trustees and the
members shows great interest taken
by all in the Chamber, and I desire to
extend TO them my sincere thanks for
their active assistance I wish also to
acknowledge at this time the valuable
services of our Secretary, . Mr.. Fl. P.
Wood, who has, in great measure, con-
tributed to the Chambers successful
work
The Trustees have allowed him a
well earned leave of absence, which
he will spend in the Orient, in work
connected with Chambers of Commerce
and other commercial bodies which will
undoubtedly prove of great value to our
institution in the future.
