THIS IS CERTAIN
The Proof That Belfast Readers Cannot
Deny,

The Proof That Belfast Readers Cannot
Deny.
What could furnish stronger evidence OF the
efficiency of any remedy than the test of time?
Thousands of people testify that Doan's Kid
uey PILLS have brought lasting results.
Home endorsement should prove undoubted-
ly the merit of this remedy. Years ago your
friends and neighbors testified to the relief
they had derived from the use of Doan's Kid
ney Pills. They now confirm their testimonials.
They say time has completed the test.
II had been annoyed at intervals for long
time by pains through my back and kidneys"
SAYS B. Robinson, retired blacksmith. of 6
Waldo avenue, Belfast. "Any exertion or q
cold that settled in myI. kidneys caused me
much pain and discomfort. After used Doan's
Kidney Pills, my strength returned and could
work with ease. l never let an opportunity
pass whenever hear anyone complaining OF
backache to say good word for Doan's Kidney
Pills."
STILL USES DOAN'S.
At later date Mr.. Robinson said: II still
use Doan's Kidney Pills whenever think that
my kidneys are not just right and they nix me
up in very short time. We always keep them
in the house. confirm all said in their praise
in years past. still consider Doans's Kidney
Pills the best kidney medicine to be had"
Mr. Robinson is only one of many Belfast
people who have gratefully endorsed Doan's
Kidney Pills. If your back aches-if youl
kidneys bother you, don't simply ask for kid
ney remedy-ask DISTINCTLY FOR DOAN's
KIDNEY PILLS, the same that Mr.. Robinson
had-the remedy backed by home testimony

Thousands of war claims mounting up in
the millions may make heavy drain
upon the treasury, if the amendment of
which Oscar Underwood, Democratic
House leader, is the author, is forced
through. Mr.. Underwood's amendment
is the first instance in fifty years where
the barrier of loyalty to the Government,
which has always been the basis of all
war claims, is absolutely shattered.
So far as the Democratic leaders,
amendment is concerned, the flood gates
are thrown open for the filing of hum
dreds of thousands of Confederate war
claims. If the Democratic leaders pol
lev is approved, it may mean the pay
ment of millions of dollars to the South.
And it looks as though it might be. since
Democrats, south and north. followed
Mr.. Underwood in his break over the
loyalty bars like sheep.
Republican Leader Mann fought val
iantly against the establishment of this
unusual precedent in the House, but he
was swept away by the Democratic cur
rent.
The particular claim was that OF An
tonic O. Lowell and heirs at-law of Cor
federate General Quitman for federal oc,
cupation of lands owned by that General,
in the crop year of 1865. The United
States Court of Claims rejected the
claim because the owners of the land
failed to establish their loyalty to the
Government. The Standing Committee
on War Claims likewise rejected it, but
the Democratic leader put it through.
Concern has been expressed by those
who see the possible drain on the Treas
ury that this precedent may create, lest,
Immediately after the coming elections,
thousands of other such claims may be
considered and allowed, regardless OF the
the war. Minority Leader Mann called
attention 10 this danger, but he was ig-
nored bv the Democratic majority.
