Lost His Quarter.


The following appeared in a
recent issue of the Arlington
(Ky.) Courier:
Lost-One quarter of a dollar
The first we've. had since
Xmas. The eagle on same has
three feathers pulled out of his
caudal appendage where we
tried to max. another quarter
out of a nickel. Finder please
return to the editor of the Cou-
rier and We'll fall on his neck
and weep. Remember it is
more cussed to skin an editor
out of quarter than to go fish
ing on Sunday. The man who
would do it would push a
widow woman's dog in the
creek and whip him for getting
wet; yea, he would suck eggs.
If we learn who found and kept
that quarter we will tell the
truth about him when he dies"

ing Able to Depend Upon a
Well-Earned Reputation.

For months Wahpeton read
ers have seen the constant ex-
preston of praise for Doan's
Kidney Pills, aud read about
the good work they have done
in this locality. Not another
remedy ever produced such
convincing proof of merit.
Mrs. Williams Him burg, 73C
Third ST., North, Fargo, N. ID
says. II can conscientiously y
recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills to anyone suffering from
backache or kidney trouble. I
had kidney disease for many
years, the chief symptom being
a dull aching through the
small of my back and loins.
The numerous remedies and
plasters that I used did me no
good, and when l learned of
Doan's Kidney Pills procured
box. 1 obtained prompt re-
lief from the use of this RENE
dy and by the time [ had taken
the contents of few boxes
had no sign of kidney COM
plant. [ am glad to recon-
mend a remedy of such great
merit as Doan's Kidney Pills.
