There is a Heap of SoIace in Being Able
to Depend Upon a WeII-Earned
Reputation
For months Herald readers have
seen the constant expression of praise
for Doan's Kidney Pills and read
about the good work they have done
in this locality. What other remedy
ever produced such convincing proof
of merit?
Oliver Doll. n. Adams & Hickory
SITS, Lancaster, Wis. says: For a
long time l was troubled with dis

ache across my back and it was very
lame and sore. The kidney score
tions became highly coloTed and
otherwise unnatural. I used several
remedies but received no relief until I
procured Doan's Kidney Pills from
Hatch's Drug Store. They corrected
the trouble from the kidney secre-
tions and removed the pains in my
back"

city, the first hearing OF his operate

the Garrick theater, Monday evening.
the Oscar Straus opera, MY Little
Friend" Mr.. Whitney is a son of
the late Clark j. Whitney, and a
brother OF Bertram c. Whitney. The
name OF Whitney has been linked
with Detroit theatricals for half
century.
Mr.. whitney was successful man.

big opera production, in the old De
troit opera house, OF Rob Roy" This

by Mr.. Whitney. In succession came
Brian Boru'' pure Irish; The Nor.

Warden, English; When Johnny
Comes Marching Home" American;
Loves Lottery" German; The Rose
OF the Alhambra," Spanish; The
Chocolate Soldier" Bulgarian, and
the new opera, My Little Friend, =

Detroit. In addition Mr. Whitney
chose Detroit for the premiere OF sew
eral dramas, notably QUO Vadis.'

known European librettists and the
men who wrote the books OF The

II there were a candle here, could
light that candle with it, and use the

IN 8 years Ike seen too many
teachers and parents who tried to in
spire their boys and girls to good
things by blowing at them. Which
way are our city officials leading the
boys and girls-down. or up? | wish
that the men OF this city who want a
better example set for their children
would go in solid phalanX 10 the polls
on Tuesday, and vote for a man who
is living in such a way, and conduct
ing his business in such a way, that
boy or girl can rub up against him
and be inspired to better burning by
