TRUTH TRIUMPHS
Ocala Citizen Testifies for the Public
Benefit

A truthful statement of an Ocala
citizen, given in his own words,
should convince the most skeptical
about the merits of Doan's Kidney
Pills. If you suffer from backache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, urinary
disorders or any form of kidney ills,
use a tested kidney medicine.
An Ocala citizen tells of Doan's
Kindey Pills. Could you demand
more convincing proof of merit?
R. C. Lover dge, 225l y. Magonlia
street, Ocala, Fla, says: Il have
taken Doan's Kidney Pills for kidney
and bladder trouble and have found
them to be a reliable medicine.
don't hesitate to advise their use in
cases of kidney complaint"
Mr.. Loyeridge is only one of many
Ocala people who have gratefully en-
dorsed Doan's Kidney Pile. If your
back aches-if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy-ask for Doan's Kidney
Pills, the same as Mr.. Loveridge had
the remedy backed by hope testi-
mony. soc. all stores. Foster-Mil-

motive and baggage cars passed over
a broken rail, the day coach appear
ed to have been lifted skyward, then
over the embankment aud heavy
Pullman plowei into the rear of it.
Directly behind this came the pri-
vate car OF Vice President Munson,
of the G. s. & F. Railroad and this.
too, was carried down the twenty
foot embankment into the swamp.
Pullman sleepers behind were. only
deraiIed.
Above the cries Of the injured and
panic stricken passengers came the
shouts of Flagman F. G. Warner, of
Macon, himself badly injured.
Lookout, the Dixie Flyer is right
behind u.s." he shouted. Help me
out and III stop her"
T. j. Howard OF the Macon Tele-
graph, helped Warner out and with

ries and with one arm crippled ran
back on the track and placed fuses
and stood there with his lantern to
ed the place just in time, passengers

few years ago, men, women and

risks when they did so. Your family

But the drug trade has found a
safer. more pleasant remedy than CAL

Where and how did tho old sayEna nBx hook or croosSr crfufnate7
 Tn England formerly poor tenants of certain estates were allowed to go into the forest with a hook and crook to get fuel and were permitted to cut such branches as they could pull down with a hook and cut with a crook, or crook ed knife. An early English chronicler says of a certain forest that it was ever open and common to 1nha bitants Of the village to bear away upon their backs a burden of lop, crop. hook. crook and bag wood This origin seems reasonable, but another English writer thinks the expression means ssfoul1y, like a thief, or holily, like a bishop, the hook being the instrument used by footpads and the crook being the bishops crosier for catching men" The first explanation is probably the correct one
