THE ONLY WAY.
Many Paw Paw People Have Dis
covered 1t.

Just what to do when the kidneys
are affected is a question that Concerns
both young and old Weak kidneys neg
lected in childhood lead to life long suf
ferng. People of advanced years with
less vitality suffer doubly. In youth or
age, larguor, backache, urinary irregu-
larlty, dizziness and nervousness make
life a burden
There is one remedy that acts directly
on the kidneys and cures taese troubles.
Doar's Kidney Pills owe their World
wide fame to the fact that they cure
sick kidneys and cure them permanently
Follow the example of this Paw Paw
citizen aud you will be convinced that
this is so:

derful benefit from Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured at Long Bros drug store
| suffered acutely from pains in the
small of my back and after stopping |
could hardly straig hten was certain
that my Kidneys were disordered and |
tried various remedies and physiciaCs'
prescriptions, but failed to fiud relief.

pains and improving my geueral health.

Success.

The men who have achieved success
are the men who have worked, read,
thought more than was absolutely nee
essary, who have not been content
with knowledge sufficient for the pres
ent need, but who have sought addi-
tional knowledge and stored it away
for the emergency reserve. 1t is the
superfuous labor that equips ii
for everything that counts most n
life.-The Late Senator Cushman X.

Best Stomach
Remedy Free

It IS an old saying that if the stom-
ach Is sound the whole body Is safe,
because so much depends upon the
proper working OF the stomach. Many
persons find themselves with a dis
order of the stomach which pro-
duces dyspepsia or peculiar state OF
biliousness.
If you suffer from both stomach trouble
and constipation you are on the way TO
very serious disease. From just such con-
ditions come appendicitis, rheumatism,
skin diseases and similar disorders, be-
cause the waste matter that should have
the bowels has found its way into the
blood and vitiated 1t. What is needed at
this point is not simply violent cathartic
tablet or salt, which usually does more
harm than good, but a gentle laxative
tonic like DR. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin,
which people have been using for these
ailments for nearly a quarter of a CEN
fury. 1t cured j. G. Lanham, of War
rensburg Mo-, of stomach trouble of long
standing, also William Vol, of 903 Ellis
son St, Louisville, KY, who had the
trouble for fifteen years.
However, If you have stomach trouble
you want to know from personal expert
ence what DIR. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin
to the doctor and a free trial bottle will
be sent you. You are urged to send for
the free bottle, as the results from II Will
be the best recommendation OF DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. Then you will do as
over two million people did last year--go
to your druggist and buy regular bottle
at so cents or 81, according TO the size
YOU prefer We could mention hundreds
and hundreds of families who are never
without IL. You can never tell when some
member OF the family will need laxa-
tive, and then no time should be lost
taking Dir. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin.

OVERCROWDED
BOAT SINKS
Twenty Persons Drowned in Ohio
RigsT Near PIttSburg.
ONLY TEN ESCAPED DEATH

Gasoline Launch Sank Beneath Weight
It Had Heen Bearing and Many Men
Were Caught In the Suction and
Went Down With lt-There Was No
Explosion or Leak.
Pittsburg. May 12.-Twenty persons
are missing and all of them are be-
lieved to have been drowned when a
gasoline launch sank in the middle
of the Ohio river near Schoenvilie,
four miles below Pittsburg. OF the
thirty occupants Of the boat only ten
are known to have escaped.
All the men were employees OF the
Pressed Steel Car company at their
McKees Rocks plant. The men left the
works to cross the river in the launch.
The boat is said to have been intend
ed for not over twenty persons, and II
is said il was dangerous to attempt TO
carry as many as twenty-five in 1t. But
all the men wanted to get across the
river on the first trip OF the boat and
thirty of them crowded in.
As the men started out in the boat
one of them is said to have remarked
that it seemed to him to be over
crowded and he feared it was not safe
to attempt the trip in it. When the
boat reached the middle Of the river.
when the water is perhaps twenty feet
deep the boat suddenly sank.
There was no explosion, no leak
was sprung. but the boat simply sank
beneath the weight It had been bear
ing and went to the bottom. AS IL
sank II caused a suction which took
many of the men down with It. Others
attempted to swim ashore. but were
chilled by the cold water and became
exhausted before reaching the shore.
So far as is known but ten of the men
reached the shore.
The region is sparsely settled in the
vicinity where the accident occurred
and II was some time before news Of
the accident spread. One of the men
who succeeded in swimming ashore
ran to a telephone and gave the
alarm. Boats were at once put out in
the hope Of rescuing some struggling
swimmer
John Deer. who lived on the river
bank and heard cries for help. went
out in a skiff and saved eight lives.
Part Of that number Of men he put
into his boat while others held on to
the side Of it and were rowed ashore
One man swan TO the bank and was
saved II is thought not another Of
the thirty reached shore.
