A Woman Finds all Her Energy and
Ambition Slipping Away.

aches and pains that come when the
kidneys fail make life a burden. Back
ache, nip pains, headaches, dizzy
spells, distressing urinary troubles all
tell of the sick kidneys and warn you
OF the stealthy approach of dropsy or
Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney Pills
are for the kidneys only, They at.
tack kidney diseases by striking ar
the cause. Here's proof of it in a Hat
tiesburg woman's words:
Mrs. N. A. Tins, sos Buschman

at night and / could not do any work
that obliged me to stoop, owing to
pain and weakness across my loins
I took Doan's Kidney Pills a year or
two ago and they helped me so much
that when / again had need of them,

other box at Hays g Fields Drug

PUBLICITY.

@NA~s-CAAAs
An article descriptive of the Min
bres Valley by the secretary was
published last week in the Globe
Democrat, st. Louis, and was repub-
lished by the Herald, Albuquerque.
An editorial in the Herald COM
ments. as follows:
"A copy of the St. Louis Globe
Democrat has reached the Herald
exchange table which features under
prominent headlines most interes-
ting article under a Deming, N. NJ,
date line telling of the wonderful
things accomplished in the Mimbres
Valley by use of the pump.
In one of the leading dailies of
one of the biggest cities Of the west
the value of advertising such as this
does not need demonstration. And
the point we are getting at is that
Deming. as usual, is on the job.
That article on pumping did not
make its appearance in the st. Louis
paper accidentally. Furthermore,
every once in while something of
the same kind crops out in some
other big newspaper or magazine.
The average reader does not sc
far without striking something
about Deming or the Mimbres VAL
ley or pumping water for irrigation
in southern New Mexico.
"Deming is one of the New Mex
leo towns which has early come to a
realizing sense of the pail of igno-
rance regarding the southwest over
a large part of the eastern states.
The Deming people are deter
mined that so far as they are con-
cerned this ignorance shall be none
of their fault"
The secretary has received an or
der from I h G Earth, published
lished in Chicago for an article con-
corning development here to be
published in November.

The correspondence during the
past week has been unusually heavy.
