People with kidney ills want to be
cured. When one suffers the tortures of
an aching back. relief is eagerly sought
for. There are many remedies today that
relieve. but do not cure. Doans Kidney
Pills have brought lasting results to
thousands. Here is Augusta evidence of
their merit.
Mrs. Mary Damren. 147 Northern Ave,
Augusta, says: II am glad to say word
in praise Of Doan's Kidney Pills. This is
the first and only remedy that ever
brought relief to one of my family who
had suffered for a long time from weak
back and kidneys. After two boxes of
Doan's Kidney Pills were used, there was
no cause for complaint. I am still CRATE
full for what Doan's Kidney Pills have
done in my family. I willingly confirm
the endorsement I gave them in January
1911"
Price SOC. at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Dam
rem had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props.

VITAL QUESTIONS ANSWERED

The evidence that Prof. Caldwell
has presented to the public for the
past year is of such a character as
not only to convince the most in
credulous of his skill in the treatment
of disease. but also satisfies and in
spires faith, because the patients
themselves (your friends and neigh
bcrs) who have been rescued by him
from a condition of desperation and
hopelessness, have described their
symptoms and testified to the thor
oughness and reliability of their cures.
Very many have come without hope
lin many instances to satisfy the de-
sire of their friends) and been cured
If Prof. Caldwell can cure these peo-
pie, is it not reasonable to suppose he
can cure you? 1t is certainly worth
trial.

away from the region which they
knew to be dangerous

senator that the situation was serious
Senator Sheppard said the president
did not say what further action would
be taken
In regard to statements that Gen

men to resume their work in Mexico
state department officials said no infor-
nation to that effect had been received
here. but il was understood a general
resumption of mining activities was
