CONFIRMED PROOF.
Residents of Lexington
Ca n n OF Doubt What
Has Been Twice Proved


In gratitude for relief from
aches and pains Of bad back
from distressing kidney ills
thousands have publicly recon.
mended Doan's Kidney Pills.
Residents of Lexington, who so
testified years ago, now say the
results were permanent. This
testimony doubly proves the
worth of Doan's Kidney Pills to
Lexington sufferers.
j. H. Thomas, r. F. D. No. 3,
Lexington, Tenn, says: Il can
still recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills, for / consider them q
splendid kidney medicine. Some
years ago l gave : public state
ment endorsing this remedy and
| gladly confirm it at the pres.
ent time. My kidneys were dis
ordered and the kidney secre.
tions not only contained sedi-
ment but passed too frequently
My back also ached most Of the
time. Doan's Kidney Pills en-.
tirely relieved these symptoms
of kidney complaint.

Some Crops Hurting.

Quite a number of farmers
have been in town this week
and some of the number report
crops suffering for rain. From
them we gain the information
that lands broken deep in ad-
vance of the winter or early
spring rains, have on the crops
that ale showing no hurt, while
the usual effect has followed
shallow blowing. Deep blowing
is the crying need in the agri.
culture Of this country.

Made Strong and Well by Vinol

When We tell you that Ninol is the
best remedy in our whole stock for
making weak. puny ailine children
strong and, robust and rosy We are
only telling you what has been prov
ed by hundreds of mothers
Mrs. w. O. Strother. Raleigh. Y. G.
says: My little girl, Hazel. has
been taking Ninol to build her up af-
ter a sever spell OF sickness. 1t has
done so much good by restoring her
appetite and building up her strength
that | think Vinol is the finest tonic
ever prepared and | am telling every
one about it."
What Ninol did for this little girl
it will do for every weak. and ailing
child because Sickly children need the
strengthening cod liver clements and
the tonic iron that Ninol contains
that is why Vinol builds them up
quickly and gives them a fine healthy

guarantee that the results will satisfy
you-your money back if they do not.

ces and following the actual lorna
ton OF the organization, an executive

ARE SINKING
FOR WATER

Dick Kingston. who came down
from the United Mine Gompany'S
holdings yesterday. states that the
work OF sinking the shaft is again I'M
der way. The engine and pumps are
behaving nicely and the pump is
handling about sixty gallons OF water
a minute, A recent flow was encoun-
tered which forced about 100 gallons
per minute onto the pumps. 1t is
hoped from this time on that no
trouble will be encountered and that
the sinking OF the shaft can be CON
tinued. It is the busiest mining claim
in this section at present.

MINING WAR
IN FULL FORCE

The mining war continues on the
Comstock. The Zadig- Coffin outfit
would take the scalp OF the Symmes
people. who up to the present time
seem to be holding their own. The
Mexican people have determined to
spread out and put some of their
money in new ground, which does
not meet with the approval OF the old
timers who would continue the deep
mining at any hazard. Between the
two factions there is a lively wordy
war and stockholders meetings have
been called. 1t seems to he the man
who can control the most stock who
will land with the goods,

WAS KILLED
IN THE NORTH

A private letter has just reached
this city announcing the death of
Jack Johnson at Deadwood, North
Dakota. Althoug Mr.. Johnson was
not generally known in this section
his death is Of interest to Carson
people as he was the husband of Ed
ma Mills. a Carson reared girl. The
unfortunate wife is now in the north.
Mr.. Johnson was an electrician and
was e1ectrocuted while repairing
wires' carrying a high voltage. He
was found hanging to an electric Wire
and had been dead two days when dis
covered. The sympathy OF the Car
son people will go out to the former
Carson girl in her bereavement.

tremendous interest and Importance
The document points out undeniabe inefficiency
in many city departments. 1t shows that government

is waste of money in almost all work done 1t attacks
the board system declaring it hindrance 1t aments
the mayor lack of power insisting that the chief ex-
ecutive aside from veto power is little more than fig

The dog bite machine" is a true
curiosity. 1t was made by a man
who used it to produce upon his
arms and legs the semblance Of Sc
rious bites from the teeth Of a dog.
Then showing his wounds. he &C

through a court, a substantial sum
in damages from the owner of the
dog, which had never bitten him.
The simple apparatus for stealing
coins from a box having a slit at
the top-and children's banks" are
not the only repositories of money
that are so poorly provided with
eguards-eXplains itself, al
though its manipulation, no doubt,
demands practice. This recalls the
story of the vicious small boy who.

vention seems absurdly simple.
