The Kind That Alma. Michigan PEG

Many an earnest Alma man or
woman has publicly endorsed Doan's
Kidney Pills
Week after week, month after
month you've read their statements.
Would these Alma people recon-
mend any medicine if it were not
good?
Would they confirm and repeat
their statements after years had
passed.
Local proof is good evidence.
Testimony confirmed years after is
better evidence.
The following Alma mans state
ment leaves no room for doubt.

ferer who reads il.

Five Of the seven votes OF the

In making an inspection Of said
building, we find conditions existing
which are undoubtedly due to the set
Element of said building at some past
period. Not knowing how long such
conditions have existed, 1t is our judg-
ment from appearances that the same
have existed for period Of time.
We being called here for the pur-
pose of inspecting said school building
to determine whether same would be
safe to continue the present term OF
school until the close Of the school
year Of 1867, do hereby report fav-
orably under present conditions, barr.
ing floods and backwater and abnor.
NAL conditions which may arise.
In case Of flood or backwater or
abnormal conditions, we advise that
the use Of the building for school pur.
pose be discontinued until another In.
spection be made to determine whether
the building has deteriorated in any
respect from the present condition.
In conclusion, therefore, we advise
the school board to use tha school
building for the present school term.
