The local situation reflects the eastern morse
market conditions, as CLEANED from the following
advices:
big prices are being paid and orders OF ur-
gent nature come from all quarters. The supply
is by no means liberal. despite attractive prices,
as the country is too busy to dicker over what
horses are worth. Pacific coast demand Is broad,
here and at Missouri river markets. One OF the
secrets of strength Is the fact that the country
is buying horses and seriously tnterrupting the
movement to central markets. For tiptop stun

LAME BACKS
FEEL FINE
KIDNEYS ARE
REGULATED AND BLADDER
DOSES.

The most effective and harmless
way to cure backache and regulate
out-of-order kidneys, or end bladder
trouble, is to take several doses of
Pape's Diuretic.
You will distinctly feel that your
kidneys and urinary organs are being
cleaned, healed, and vitalized, and all
the miserable symptoms, such as
backache, headache, nervousness,
rheumatism and darling pains, infiam-
ed or swollen eyelids, irritability,
sleeplessness, or suppressed, painful
or frequent urination ESPECIALLY at
night and other distress, leaving af-
ter taking the first few doses.
The moment you suspect any kid
ney or urinary disorder, or rheuma-
tism, begin taking this harmless pre-
paration as directed, with the knowl-
edge that there is no other medicine.
at any price, made anywhere else in
the world, which will effect so
thorough and prompt cure as fifty
cent treatment of Pape's Diuretic,
which any druggist can supply.
Your physician, pharmacist, banker
or any mercantile agency will tell you
that Pape, Thompson & Pape. of Gin
cinnati, is a large and responsible
medicine concern, thoroughly worthy
of your confidence.
Don't be miserable or worried an
other moment with a lame back or
clogged, inactive kidneys or bladder
misery. All this goes after you start
taking Pape's Diuretic, and in a few
days you feel and know that your kid
neys, liver and urinary system are
healthy, clean and normal, and all
danger passed.
Accept only Pape's Diuretic-ffty-
cent treatment-from any drug store
anywhere in the world. ***
