Comment on Willmar's Prize.

At last the Seventh congressional
district has scored in the matter of
state institution and Kandiyohi
county is the scorer. That county
has captured the state inebriate
farm, the "Roozers' Bungalow"
the Willmar Republican calls it.
It has taken the state board of con-
troll two years to locate the home
for drunks which it has done by Sc
lecting 345 acres Of land two miles
north Of Willmar in Kandiyohi
county. Ye gods and little fish
es.' Kandiyohi. at one time an
asplrant for the state capitol, gets
a jag shop! That is like running
for president and getting pound
master. But, joking aside, there
is no better place in the state for a
home for these self-madc unfortun-
ates. Pure air, pure water, pure
surroundings, a community that be-
lieves that the making of drunkards
is wrong to begin with, what bet-
ter could be asked? The home is
supported by a two per cent tax up
on all moneys received from saloon
licenses issued thruout the state
hut the cash spent for whisky by
these unfortunates is a burden still.

HEED THE WARNING
Many WDlmar People Have
Done so.

When the kidneys are sick they
give unmistakable warnings thai
should not be ignored. By exam,
lining the urine and treating the
kidneys upon the first sign of dis
order, many days Of suffering may
be saved. Sick kidenys expet 6
dark. ill-smelling urine, full Of
"brick-dust" sediment and painful
in passage. Sluggish kidneys cause
a dull pain in the small of the back,
headaches. dizzy spells, tired, lang.
uid feelings and frequently, rheu.
matte twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the
kidneys only; they cure sick kid
neys, an rid the blood of uric poi,
son. If you suffer from any Of the
above symptoms you can use NO
better remedy.
Willmar people recomme n d
Doans Kidney Pills.
A. W. McCusick, 702 Second st.,
Willmar, Mimi. says: II had been
troubled for over two years from
my kidneys. These organs seemed
very weak, the secretions being too
frequent and greatly interfered
with my rest. l was subject to
dizzy spells and headaches, at times
so severe that l would nearly fall.
| was very nervous and in the morn
ing felt tired and languid. Sud.
den cricks would catch me in the
back and I could hardly move.
was greatly run down in health
when l heard of Doan's Kidney
Pills and procured a box at A. E.
M Mossberg's drug store. They
helped me at once, and in short
time was cured. It gives me
pleasure to recommend Doan's Kid.
ney Pills to other kidney sufferers. .
