 Sure They Are.

Ncehing uncertain about the work of Doan's Kidney Pills in Norwich. There is plenty of positive proof of this in the testimony of citizens. Such evidence should convince the most skeptical doubter. Read the following statement:
 Mrs. Mary Nef. 465 Main Street, Norwich. Conn. says: For many %aars 8 member of my family was szbject to attacks of kidney complaint He suffered from pains across the Ioins and at times could scarcely get about on account of his back being so stiff and lame. The kidney secretions were irregular in passing and often con tained sediment. Doan's Kidney Pills. procured at x. D. sevin & Sons Drug Store. proved of benefit from the first and soon every symptom of kidney complaint disappeared"
 The above statement was given August z7, 1908. and several years later Mrs. Nefr said: T willingly cor firm all I sad in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills in the testimonial given for publication in 1903. Nothing has occurred to change my high opinion of Doar's Kidney Pills"

DAVIS THEATRE.
'sunty Pulls the Strings" Coming.

EBunty Pulls the Strings" Graham hIoffats quaint comedy, comes to the Davis theatre Thursday, April 3d, for one night only. This play was un- occasionally the novelty of the the atrical world for the past season and it has just closed a sensational run at the Comedy theatre, New York, and Norwich is to be one of the first out side cities to see the original, inn ported company that Messrs. Shubert and William A. Brady organized. It is delightful and wholesome, breat thing Of the pure air of an open world. Fol lowing but lightly the necessities of dramatic art, it triunphs in a some thing finer. and. more profound. in the intimacy with which it recalls, rather than tnterprets, the primal un- sophisticated sympathies of human nature. It is as local and as univer- sal as Shore Acres or The Little Min 1ster and wins it's way to the heart because 1t has followed the truth, that the human heart is the same among the heather de1is as among the musk scented night5 Of the Thracian Wilder ness. The company includes Miss Molly Pearson, Edmund Beresford, Miss Vera Pole, EtheIbert Hales. Sandcrson Mofat. Miss Amy Single ton. Miss Margaret Nyhloc. J. E. Mac Gregor. Miss Marjorie Davidson, Leonard Booker and others.

Mother, the Years Most Absorbing
 Two Reel Western Feature.

Among the many excellent features at the Breed today is the remarkable tied Mother. This is an American Pathe production telling story of a son who goes west to live on a ranch and writes home to his parents that he has been elected sheriff when in reality he is horse thief. His old mother, overjoyed at his success, de- CideS to make him a surprise visit, arriving just at the time that he has been captured for stealing. The good patured sheriff is apprised of the state ct affairs and, pinning his sheriff badge upon the son, allows him to masquer- ade until his mother leaves for the east again. It is a beautiful picture from all standpoints and was the easy winner in last nights audiences favor.
 The Girls Strategy, Biograph, The Gauntlets of Washington, Edison, are other attractive features, and It Made Him Mad is the 1iveliest comedy seen in a long time and proves to be a hilarious one.

When man has harnessed lightning to his will, And spanned the oceans breadth with bows of. steel; When he has made the universe htS mill, And set the winds to work to drive his wheel; When he has sealed the skies with ghastly mirtn . To rob the stars of their stupendouH powers;
 earth, And gathered up the breath Of all the flowers; Will he then pause a while to couRt the dead Whom poverty and steel have ground to duSt2
 for bread? Or hear the mothers wall for what Is just. Will he then square himself with God and man?s Will he repudiate the vice and crime That have endured since being first began? Godi Can he do all this? Will there be time?
