MO REASON FOR IT

When Prescott Citizens Show Way.
There can be no reason why any
reader of this who suffers the tortues OF
an aching back, the annoyance of urinary
disorders, the pains and dangers of
kidney ills will fail to heed the words
of neighbor who has found relief.
Read what Prescott citizen says:
Mrs. Ora Oxford, Prescott, Ark,
says: 1.-The cure Doan's Kidney Pills
made in my little girls case three
wears ago has been permanent. | have
told any number of people about this
remedy and | am glad to again endorse
it in public way. Kidney complaint
was brought on in our daughters case
by an attack of scarlet fever. Her
back panied intensely and the kidney
secretions gave great annoyance by
their irregularity in passage, especially
at night. At last l got a box of
Doan's Kidney Pills and it did not take
them long to cure the trouble. This
remedy toned up the child's system
and strengthened her back and kidneys.

valuable paper where some smart
alex has imposed upon you and
has made an exhibition of his i'm
becility. 1t is a shame that the
fair name of the Grand Old State
of Arkansas is furnished with
such display of dense ignor-

one of the victims of a depraved
hallucinnation W h i C h induced
him to make application for men,

Sons of Rest, and was rejected on

If he had known anything about
the Fraternity he would have
known they have no President,
for the exertion of welding the
gavel would be enough to forever
disbar him from all the benefits
of the society. They never do
anything to record, therefore
have no use for a secretary.
