Backache is enough cause to suspect the kidneys. The
Kidneys are in the small Of the back. Congested kidneys swell
and throb. The back naturally aches. 1t hurts to bend Or
stoop or to sit down.
Kidney trouble may come on all unnoiced. "a cold, a
chill, a fever, a strain or irregular habits may start it. While
sick kidneys can be cured in the beginning, it is a serious
matter when dropsy, gravel or Brghts disease sets in.
Doans Kidney Pills have made a reputation in the cure Of
~backache, and kidney and bladder ills. The best proof is the

WILSON is NOTIFIED
Woodrow Wilson, governor of
New Jersey, today was formally
notified of his nomination as
Democratic candidate for presi-
dent.
1t was a peculiar coincidence
that Wilson was notified almost
exactly at the moment at which
Roosevelt was accepting the nom
ination of the Progressive party.
Wilson was notified amid
scenes of the widest enthusiasm
Sea Girt ever knew.
There is little to Sea Girt ex-
cept the little White House, the
New Jersey rife range, and the
depot.
All day long, the crowds kept
flocking in by automobile and by
train.
By noon, there were over TO-
600 people surrounding the little
White House and cheering Gov.
Wilson every time they saw him.
The special train with the noti-
fication committee, and a dozen
or so governors, arrived early in
the forenoon.
Wilson received the notihca-
ton committee on the lawn.
There were 81 members of the
committee, one from each state,
the territories and the District of
Columbia.
Ollie James, of Kentucky, made
the formal notification, eulogiz-
ing the candidate in a long
speech.
Wilson replied in a speech still
