St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1911-08-26
WHAT'S THE REASON
Many Opelousas People in Poor Health
Without Knowing the Cause.

Without Knowing the Cause.
The are scores of people who drag
out a miserable existence without
realizing the cause of their suffering.
Day after day they are racked with
backache and headache; suffer from
nervousness, dizziness, weakness, Ian
gnor and depression. Likely the kid
neys have fallen behind in their work
of filttering the blood and that is the
root of the trouble. Look to your
kidneys, assist them in their work
give them the help they need. You
can use no better remedy than Doan's
Kidney Pills-endorsed by over on
hundred thousand people, and by your
neighbors in Opelousas.
Mrs. T. Compton Chachere, Landry
st., Opelousas, La. says. "A member
of my family received splendid re-
suits from the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured from Shute's Drug
Store. He was troubled for some
time by irregular passages of the
kidney ~secretions, accompanied by
pain in his back. These troubles, I
believe, we're brought on by hard
work and heavy lifting. The nse of
three boxes vas so effective that he
was given a very high opinion of this
remedy. He was relieved of the
pains in his back and the kidney Sc
cretions were restored to their
NAL condition."

AUNT RACHEAL
BADLY SHOCKED
CHIEFLY DUE TO FRIGHT, HOW
EVER, AND NOT To ELEC-
TRIO BOLT,

RICHMOND, VA, Special
Aunt Rachel" of the Hermitage
Golf Club. had a fearful experience
Monday evening, when the electric
storm passed over Richmond. Aunt
Rachel Is the cook at the club. She
witnessed binding flash of electric
ity, heard the instant clap OF thun-
der, and in throwing back her head
from the shock, struck IL against the
wall. Thinking she had been hit by
bolt of lightning, she fell FRUSTRATED
and IL was sometime before members
of the club succeeded in convincing
themselves, as we'll as the worthy
cook, that she was not dead.
As matter Of fact, the electric
bolt which caused this somewhat
amusing incident came near doing
serious damage to the club. 1t struck
the earth in front of the building and
threw wheelbarrow load of dirt on
the front porch within a few feet of
party of club members playing q
game near the veranda. A large hole
was made in the ground, and a crevicer
In the earth was found. which was
deeper than the walking canes of any
of those present could penetrate.
one of those unusual instances Of
nghtning also occurred when Mr.. G,
II. winston, a we'll known attorney
casually talking with Mr.. Murray Nc
CURE, suggested that they step in
doors. Hardly had they entered the
club when the bolt passed within a
few feet of where they had been
standing. The odd feature of this in
cident is that several years ago Mr..
winston, while nearing Richmond COL
lege, passed within a few feet Of a
man just as a lightning bolt struck
him dead. This second narrow es-
cape from lightning is regarded by
the friends OF the attorney as a sign
that he is under the beneficent hand
OF providence or the god Of bolts and
shocks.
