All over Conway you hear it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are keeping up
the good work. Conway people are
telling about it-telling of bad backs
made sound again. You can believe
the testimony of your own townspeo-
pie. They tell it for the benefit of
you who are suffering. If your back
aches, if you feel lame, sore and mis-
cradle, if the kidneys act too fire.
quently, or passages are painful,
scanty and off color, use Doan's Kid
ney Pills, the remedy that has helped
so many of your friends and neigh
bors. Follow this Conway citizens
advice and give Doan's a chance to
do the same for you.
Mrs. S. E. Gibbons, r. F. D. No. 4.
Conway, Ark, says: For about
month | suffered from kidney trouble.
My back was painful and ached
great deal at night. | tired easily
and was also bothered by weak kid
neys. Every cold | contracted settled
in my kidneys and made my condition
much worse. Doan's Kidney Pills re-
lieved me in a few days and the con-
tents of one box made a permanent
cure

EASTERN ARK. PROHI HERE
LEY RIDGE CHRON-
ICLE.

j. l.. Newsome, editor of the Crow
ley Ridge Chronicle, published at For
rest City, was in the city yesterday
the guest of his friend and former
teacher, Prof. S. c.. Parish. Mr..
Newsome is an ardent advocate of
statewide prohibition. He says the.
interest in eastern Arkansas is in
tense. His county, st. Francis, is at
present a whiskey county. "The whis-
key people attempted to buy the influ-
ence of my paper. They made the
proposition that if the prohibitionists
didn't pay me more than $1,000, it
would pay me to keep silent. The
people of eastern Arkansas fear that
those in the prohibition section will
be Indifferent and won't vote on the
subject. Every good man in Arkan-
sas is needed on the side of prohibi-
ton. If he votes for local option he
will be working with and for the
whiskey element, as that is the only
hopes of the saloon. That's why they
are at present advocating the thing
they have heretofore opposed"
