work with a marketable value. While
all her little world acknowledged her
artistic ability no one would buy the
fantastic oriental drawings that she
turned out. Her first lot of Billikens
were taken to Chicago by friend who
promised to try to sell them. They met
with such "A ready sale that the friend

A CORROBORATION.
OF Interest to Snow Hill Readers.

For months Snow Hill citizens have
seen in these columns enthusiastic
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills by Snow
Hill residents. Would these prominent
people recommend remedy that had
not proven reliable? Would they con-
firm their statements after years had
elapsed if personal experience had not
shown the remedy to be worthy of en-
dersement? No stronger proof of merit
can be had than cures that have stood
the test of time. The following state
ment should carry conviction to the
mind of every Snow Hill reader.
w. A. Britton, Cove Street, Crisfeld,
Md, says: 81 am just as willing to
praise Doan's Kidney Pills at this time
as ! was five years ago and gladly
confirm the public statement | made in
their favor. | have never known of a
remedy that gives such prompt and eff
fective results as Doan's Kidney Pills.
They cured me of severe case of kid
