Westminster People Have Found That

Do you ever feel that you simply
can't go any further-that you must
have rest from that lame and aching
back-relief from the constant, dead
tired feeling from those
stabbing, darting pains? Likely your
kidneys are worn and tired and need
help. The kidneys work night and
day, removing uric acid from the
blood and other waste created by ex-
ericse of strength and energy. Nat
urally q life OF unusual activity
doubles the duties Of the kidneys and
in time the strain tells. Doan's Kid
ney Pills have brought new strength
to thousands of bad backs and quick
relief to weakened kidneys Let them
do the same for you. Convincing
proof in Westminster testimony.

Main St., Westminster, Md, says: I'VE

Let US forget the little Sights that
panied us,
The greater wrongs that rankle

The pride with which some lofty one
disdained us,
Let US forget.
Let US forget our brothers fault and

The yielding to temptations that

That he perchance, though grief be
unavailing,
Cannot forget.
But blessings manifold, past all de

Kind words and helpful deeds,

The faults o'ercome, the rectitude IN

Let u remember long.
The sacrifice of love, the generous
giving
When friends were few, the hand
clasp warm and strong,
The fragrance Of each life of holy liv-

Whatever things we're good and true

Whate'er of right has tr1umphed

What love of God or man has render
