HAS DARLINGTON FOUND THE SAME2
The Answer Is Found i'm the
straightforward Statement of
An Darlington Resident.

We have been reading week after
week in the local press of Hartford
citizens who have been rid of dis
tressing kidney and bladder trou-
bles by Doan's Kidney Pills, and we
have often wondered whether the
same high opinion of this medicine
is to be found in our neighboring
town. This frank and earnest state
ment by well known and respected
resident of Darlington will set this
doubt at rest.
Mrs. Pearl Walton, Darlington,
Ky, says: 81 suffered from weak
kidneys. did not pay much atten-
ton to the trouble at first, but when
| found that l had little control
over the kidney secretions, / knew
that something must be done. My
rest was broken at night and in the
morning | was tired and WORKOUT.
Doan's Kidney Pills cured me and
my kidneys have been in good con-
dition since"
Price soc at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Walton had. Foster-Mil-

NOTE TO BATTLE FRONT.
Kaiser in GaIicia Studies Document;
Berlin Likes Friendly Tone.

Berlin, June 12--Ihe Seconu amer =
lean note was in the hands of the
kaiser today. The complete text
cleared the wires from Berlin last
night and was rushed to the emperor
headquarters at the Galic1an BATTLE
front being given preference over all
otner dispatches at the kaiSerS per-
Sonal request.
No official comment on the notes
contents accompanied the text sent
to the emperor, it was reported here
TODAY. 1t is understood that the for
eign office desires that the kaiser hrSt
study the full text of the American
-joinder and then communicate his
own impression to Berlin before the
diplomats here suggest tentative out
line for the German reply.
Americans Less ApprehenSiVe.
The friendly phrasing of the second
note removed apprehension that exist
ed to some extent among Americans
here. In official circles great care was
taken to reserve all comment, but
there was no Disgusting the fact that
officials generally were pleased with
it's friendly tone, though they took the
view that the situation with regard to
the tOrpedoing of the Lus1tan1a was
in no way altered.
There is no indication, it was point
ed out here, that America Intends to
recede from her former position.
Ambassador Gerard explained to
Foreign Secretary Won Jagow that the
American rejoinder was published in
the United States several hours before
it's text was formally presented to Ger
many because of delay in transmits
sion of a message he sent to Wash
ington-
Gera-d's Message Too Late.
He cabled Washington, he told Won
Jagow. requesting that publication be
delayed until after he had notified
the state department that the note
was in the hands of the foreign sec
rotary.
His cable to Washington apparently
was delayed, arriving after the text
had been given to the American news
papers.
