HARRINGToN.

The auction sale of building lots in
the R. d. Short addition to the east
side of Harrington, which was held
last Saturday morning, was well at
tended and the bidding was entirely
satisfactory. Eight lots were disposed
of for a total sum of $500, up to the
time the storm broke and compelled
the people to disperse and seek shell
ter. This part Of Harrington is rap
idly building up, and the new lot own
ers will probably build on their pur-
chases. The sale will be re-advertised
and held at future date.
The heavy rains have done much
damage to the wheat crops yet in the
fields, and now many farmers are be-
wailing the fact that they did not
stack their wheat when they could
have done so. Its the same old story

Backache is often natures most FIRE.

cure the pains and aches, to remove the
lameness when it arises from weakened
kidneys, you must reach the cause-t the
kidneys. If you have pain through the
small of your back, urinary disorders,
headaches, dizzy spells, or are nervous
and depressed, start treating the kid
neys with a tested kidney remedy.
Doan's Kidney Pills have been proved
good and are especially for weak kid
neys. Doan's have been used in kidney
trouble for over fifty years. Read Mil
ford testimony.
Mrs. L. c. Hudson, 404 Washington
Street, Milford, says: Il know Doan S
Kidney Pills to be a fine kidney medi-
cine and do not hesitate to recommend
them. 1 have been troubled off and on
in the past by backache, which was due
to disordered kidneys. Doan's Kidney
Pills, which / bought at Moore's Drug
Store, gave me relief. They have never
failed to help me when have used
them since.
