HANDICAPPED
This is Found to be Often the Case With a
Great Many Langdon People

Too many Langdon citizens are
handicapped with bad backs. The
unceasing pain causes constant mis-
cry, making work a burden and stoop-
ing or lifting an impossibi]ity. The
back aches at night, preventing re-
freshing rest and in the morning is
stiff and lame. Plasters and liniments
may give relief but cannot reach
the cause if the kidneys are weak. To
eliminate the pains and aches of kid
ney back ache you must cure the kid
neys. Doan's Kidney Pills are for
disordered kidneys.
The following statement should
convince every Langdon reader Of
their efficiency.
Mrs. Frank Falter, Park River,
N. D., says: For many years | had
trouble from my back. 1t ached all
the time and ! often had to go to bed
for a couple of days. My head pain
ed me and | became dizzy. l had
trouble from the kidney secretions.
After trying other medicines without
relief, | used Doan's Kidney Pills and
they greatly helped ne. l now keep
Doan's Kidney Pills in the house all
the time and use them once in a while
with good results.

groans of the wounded and the cries
for help. The engineer Immediately
stopped his engine and came back TO
the wreck. Though he had done
everything in his power to check the
train when first sign of trouble ap-
pearer, grade was long and train was
speeding down-hill It was impossible
to do other than make 1t safely across
the dangerous creek. which was done.
Last night the steel coaches lay nat
on the earth just as though some
giant baby boy, tired Of his train OF
steel toy cars. had kicked them 10
one side to pick up come new play"
thing Indeed. the big steel cars
though untrucked. hardly seemed to
have been in a railroad wreck. There
was none of the usual debris, only the
torn up tracks and the slashed ties
suggesting crash that must have
been heard for a long distance wnen
the steel cars flew from the rails.
one of the most remarkable things
about the accident is that no person
was killed. The force of the impact
when the cars were thrown from the
embanl1ment TO the side of the track,
was necessarily terrific. That women
and children survived such shock
is almost beyond belief
Captain Rem, the conductor, who
lives in Norfolk. has been In the train
service for fifty years. He was In the
club car when the accident occurred.
His right hand was injured by slight
spratn. There were ffty-seven pas
senEers on the train, according to the
conductor.
within a short time after the wreck
a large force OF railroad hands was
busy placing the torn track back on
the ties. Traffic was opened at an
early hour this morning. The work
OF removing the steel cars and placing
them back on the trucks will be com
menced some time today.
Ambulauces From Richmond.
AS soon as the news of the wreck
reached Richmond, ambulances from
all Of the city hospitals were rnsheo
TO the scene. The injured were hur-
ried to this city, where they received
Immediate attention, Some of those
less seriously hurt were treated at
the scene OF the wreck and were able
to continue their journeys to their
respective destinations.
It is strange fact that the Florida
Tfn7ited has been wrecked three times
within less than two weeks. 1t was
wrecked Tuesday of last week, near
Southern Pines, when an engineer was
killed: Tuesday of this week at Frank
linton, n. c., when a negro fireman was
killed and the engineer and road
foreman injured. The third wreck
which occurred yesterday, was the only
one of the three in which trainmer
fdid not receive the most serious In
