For months Lexington readers have
seen the constant expression of praise
Tor Doan's Kidney Pills. and read about
the good work they have done in this
locality. Not another remedy ever pro-
duced such convincing proof of merit.
Mrs. Virginia Splitter, Lexington ST.,
Ruera Vista, Va, says: 81 was afflict-
ed with kidney trouble for twenty
eight years. During the first ten years
OF my suffering / was nervous wreck

swelled, dizzy spells were common and
often everything before me turned
black and L fell to the floor. My heart
palpitated violently and could walk
only a short distance. My eyesight be-

ment buildings, with all the discom-
forts OF city homes. Usually the first
encroachment of the fat house begins
with the two or three story building
with store beneath and fats above
While from the standpoint of the
real estate owner there may be some
thing TO say in favor OF the fat house,
from the standpoint OF the family
there is nothing to say except in Op-
position. The one family house is in
all respects superior. Persons who
live in flats are not so much inclined
toward buying homes of their own as
are those who occupy separate houses.
They become so fond OF the little in
terror conveniences supplied by fats
that they are inclined to overlook the
greater benefits to be derived from
plenty OF space, better ventilation and
abundant sunlight which individual
houses afford.
In the smaller towns. where lots are
cheap. the one family house should re
