Out in Hall county, Neb, lives a

father, who has been a cattle feeder

The main factors of success in feed

first securing well bred, high class ami

bred sires continuously in their herds
with the result that their stock is very
high grade Herefords and Shorthorns.
These high class cows crossed with
pure bred sires produce calves in every

WORK THAT TELLS
Plenty of 1t Has Been Done Right
Here in Mineral Point.


Cures that last are cures that tell. To
thoroughly know the virtue of a med
icine you must Investigate the cures
and see if they prove permanent.
Doan's Kidney Pills stand the test, and
plenty of proof exists right here in
Mineral Point. Persons who testified
years ago to relief from backache, kid
ney and urinary disorders, now declare
that relief was permanent and the cure
perfect. How can any Mineral Point
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
Albert Jacka, Hoard street, Mineral
Point, Wis, says: Il have had no rea-
son to change my high opinion of Doans
Kidney Pills publicly expressed three
years ago. All said in praise of this
remedy at that time still holds good.
Doan's Kidney Pills, obtained at Ivey's
Pharmacy, entirely relieved me of
lameness and soreness in my back and
other symptoms of kidney complaint.
