MALICIOUS
TALES SPIKED
BY RED CROSS

The Detroit chapter of the Ameri-
can Red Cross. thru It's secretary.
Cooper Wood. has issued the follow
ing statement to set at rest rumors
that clothing and other articles for
-+Ae- eesaseF. -e.s he seiti+ers-.fe not
always reach the soldiers or that ff
60 n is paid for by the recipient:
Persistent rumors are coming Co
the ears OF Red Cross officials or o
story 20 the effect that soldiers are
being required TO purchase the knit
ted things which are being made for
them by the women OF the Red Cross.
The utter falsity OF this report
does not prevent It's being widely
credited by upinformed people and
so the mischief 50 done.
The Detroit Cha pier wishes 60 state
that this rumor is entirely without
foundation. and is evidently of q
malicious origin. Knitted articles
made by Red Cross workers are for
warded without delay 20 the soldiers
and distributed as gifts TO the enlist
ed men OF the army and navy. There
Is never any deviation I'm this rule.

ENDORSED AT HOME
Such Proof as This Should Con
 vince Any Canaan Citizen.

The public endorsement of a local citizen is the best proof that can be produced. None better, none stronger can be had. When a man comes for. ward and testifies to his fellow. citizen, addresses his friends and neighbors, you may be sure he is thoroughly con- vinced or he would not do so. Telling one's experience when it is for the public good is an act of kindness that should be appreciated. The following statement given by resident of Ca naan adds enc more to the many cases of Home Endorsement which are being published about Doan's Kidney Pills. Read it.
 Lee R. Wickwire, Railroad St., Ga naan, says: "I am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills, for have used them with wonderful results.- am subject to pains across the small of my back and when they come on, use Doan's Kidney Pills. I am relieved almost immediately, so I know from experience that they are wonderful medicine"
